Should you quit your job and become an investor? - Your “safe” job isn’t safe anymore. - AI is rewriting the rules of work - and those who adapt early will own Era Digitalis. 9 years ago, I left one of the best jobs in the world and discovered what’s on the other side. ⚡️

Nassim Taleb sat down with Daniel Kahneman - two of the sharpest minds on risk ever - and the takeaway was blunt: stop trying to be smart Kahneman's prospect theory explains why almost nobody can do what Taleb does We're wired to hate the steady trickle of small losses his strategy needs - even when one huge win more than pays for all of them So you structure it the other way: tiny safe bets plus a few wild ones, never the comfortable middle. "You'd rather be antifragile than intelligent - any time." "Trial and error is really just trial with small error." "Make your gains in small bites. Take your losses all at once." ~1 hr, free. two legends on risk, prediction, and how to win without forecasting ↓
Nassim Taleb helps run one of the most famous crash funds on earth. His edge: having no idea what's coming He and Spitznagel buy far out-of-the-money options non-stop, regardless of the news. They never forecast the crash - they just stay positioned so one shock pays for years of small losses ~10% a year in normal times. ~3,700% in a single crisis month "We have absolutely no notion of the future. We just buy the options." "If you have a reason in mind to buy an option, don't - it'll already be priced in." "Up the escalator, down the elevator." ~25 min, free. how the world's most famous crash-trader actually makes money ↓

Matthew McConaughey says the 40s are the best years of one’s life from experience and the 50s are always filled with midlife crisis. “So I’m just turning 56 and 40s were my favorite. I think I really customized and I found that to be true for a lot of people” “40s, you get rid of all that stuff where you’re wasting your time and you hone in on the stuff that turns you on” “The first few years of the 50s were a little wobbly for me. So you go ‘oh it’s just that midlife crisis”

Just watched a reel on Lara’ famous 100 on cracking pitch, and it instantly reminded me of Stokes inning. The way he survived was pure class.

This will forever be the greatest sport montage I’ve seen. I must have posted it at least five times over the years, and it stills gives goosebumps. A work of art.

Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc driving the Ferrari Luce should have been the entirety of the launch campaign. Am totally convinced now. This $640k EV is gonna sell like hot cakes.

I'm not an atheist. The problem involved is too vast for our limited minds. We are in the position of a little child entering a huge library filled with books in many languages. The child knows someone must have written these books. It does not know-how. It does not understand the languages in which they are written. The child dimly suspects a mysterious order in the arrangement of the books but doesn't know what it is. That, it seems to me, is the attitude of even the most intelligent human being toward God. We see the universe marvelously arranged and obeying certain laws but only dimly understand these laws. -- A. Einstein

Sharp, revisionist essay about Wenger’s significance: briefly, the Premier League was a Thatcherite rebranding of top tier English football and Wenger became its mascot because he could do the sophistication thing in a way that Graham & Ferguson couldn’t. postliberal.substack.com/p/t…
