"Discipline equals freedom." This is an important lesson every parent or mentor should pass on. An important lesson I got from @jockowillink

Nobody teaches you that discipline feels like punishment until the results start feeling like freedom

Cette vidéo est un véritable cauchemar éveillé pour l'écologiste décroissant. Un robot qui traque la nuit les pathogènes et les nuisibles à la lumière ultraviolette, sans un gramme de produit chimique, ce n'est pas un gadget... De quoi faire s'effondrer toute la théologie écologiste. Ici, c'est bien l'entrepreneur et le marché qui offrent une solution réellement efficace aux défis environnementaux. Pas de contrainte, pas de retour en arrière et pas de renoncement. L'entrepreneur résout le problème en créant de l'abondance là où l'on nous promettait la pénurie. Le rôle du progrès a toujours été celui-là : produire de l'abondance à partir de la rareté naturelle avec comme moyen ultime l'ingéniosité humaine. Reste alors une question : si la technologie résout réellement les problèmes que l'écologisme prétend combattre, pourquoi l'écologisme la déteste-t-il à ce point ? Tout simplement parce que ce qu'il veut, ce n'est pas une nature préservée, c'est une société administrée, dont il serait aux manettes. Comme toutes les autres idéologies constructivistes, socialistes et collectivistes, ce qui importe vraiment à l'écologiste ce n'est pas de résoudre les défis de son temps, c'est de régner sur les hommes de son temps. Le héros sera toujours l'entrepreneur, jamais celui qui le déteste.

If the socialists had their way, Elon would have had his paypal profits taken and redistributed for the greater good. The world would never have seen Tesla, nor SpaceX. And the world wouldn't know it, because they were uncreated, and thus unseen. Imagine the companies that don't exist, because Washington destroyed them before they were born.

Sacks is based! 😂😂😂 @POTUS needs to unleash the @dojphofficial on the mayor’s race and settle this — period full stop.

🚨 BOOM! Scott Jennings just said what millions of Americans are thinking. For hours, the same people who preach “equity” and “fairness” have been obsessing over Elon Musk’s wealth instead of asking how he built it. Think about it. Electric vehicles. Rocket launches. Satellite internet. Artificial intelligence. Space exploration. The man didn’t win the lottery. He built companies that changed entire industries. Since when did success become a crime in America? Why are the people who claim to support innovation always attacking the innovators? America became the greatest nation on earth because dreamers, builders, inventors, and entrepreneurs were rewarded for taking risks. You don’t get to Mars by thinking small. You don’t change the world by envying the people trying to build it.

Pessimists sound smart.  Optimists build the world.

When most companies' opening remarks during their IPOs were about profit, today it hits something different. It is hope. The once-inspiring future that excited us when we were young but that we dropped after growing up—we have found it again.

We hear it as consumption. But it's almost all for allocation. This is a huge issue we need to get past. Name anyone you would rather see allocate 1T . Well done.

PULISIC TO BALOGUN TO DOUBLE THE LEAD! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

LETSSSS GOOOO

Peter Thiel talked about a lack of a vision for the future beyond the Green agenda, Islamism, and Chinese totalitarianism. We have our answer: American dynamism.

This single tweet cost California hundreds of billions of dollars in taxes, revenue, and jobs:

You could give “the typical American” 11 MILLION years and they still would not create PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX, OpenAI, xAI, Neuralink, Boring Company, Ad Astra, all while single-handedly saving free speech for all mankind.

“If Elon Musk wasn’t a trillionaire, we could all afford healthcare.” They fail to understand that Musk didn’t take his wealth from anyone. It didn’t exist before he created it.

Elon just created 4,400 millionaires in a single day. 400 of them are now worth over $100 million. These aren't VCs. They're SpaceX employees, and the list includes welders, technicians, and cafeteria staff, because for two decades the company paid every level of the workforce in stock instead of higher salaries. Juan Hernandez immigrated from Mexico and took a $28 an hour contractor welding job in 2015. He says he didn't even know what SpaceX was. The company gave him a $10,000 equity grant and let him buy more shares through payroll deductions. That stake is now worth $880,000. Trevor Hise's parents wanted him to take a stable job at General Electric. He picked SpaceX instead, stayed 12 years, and accumulated over 100,000 shares. At the $135 listing price that's $13.5 million. He's 37 and semiretired. His words: "The magnitude of this has been ridiculous." The most telling detail came before the listing. Over 100 employees quietly banded together and negotiated a group wealth management deal covering up to $5 billion, because none of them had ever needed a wealth manager before. Software IPOs have minted millionaires for 30 years. This is the first one where the money went to the factory floor.

Peter’s eternal optimism is cool
