life's end result is always a combination of both choices and luck.
a person who leans too much on either side / attributes too much to only one side seems to me ignorant.
the hardest worker needs some degree of luck to succeed, the thing about that is hard/smart work puts you in the position to receive luck.
the luckiest person might not even need that much hard work but they definitely need to make good choices otherwise they counteract their own luck and it becomes their undoing.
fire your content manager.
my little sister could come up with a better apology post.
or just shut up about it.
Three years ago, Prop Firm Match launched. Two traders saw a gap in the market for a platform providing simplicity and transparency for prop firm traders. We developed new features not seen before: verified reviews, payout tracking across all payment methods, live spreads, rule overviews, simple ways to compare prop firms, and prop firm expos.
Three years in, PFM has had over 25M website visits, reached over 370,000 members, and has given out free challenge accounts worth over $1,400,000 to the PFM community. Over 100 firms apply to be listed each year and go through one of the industry’s most rigorous compliance processes.
We also got something wrong. Until yesterday, when someone clicked on a firm or a code on our site, a new tab would open the firm’s site through our affiliate link. This should not have happened. We take full responsibility for it. We have reached out to each of our partners to review this together and reconcile any inaccuracies. We respect any decisions firms have made based on this.
We truly appreciate the partners and traders who value the relationship we have built together over the years. We promise you that we will learn from this, hold ourselves to the highest standard, and come back stronger and better.

the fact that you exist as an entirely unrepeatable perspective on reality should fill you with an enormous sense of possibility. nobody can create from the exact place you create from. nobody can see through your eyes. take that seriously. make something of it.

The ability to build anything has come with a critical lesson:
Engineers have really, really bad ideas.

Discipline is a gift you give your future self
At 20 you think you'll start tomorrow
Tomorrow turns into next month, next year
Then one day you look up and wonder where it all went
Nobody is coming to save you
But that's also what makes it freeing
The pen is in your hand
Wake up early, show up when it's hard
Protect your health, your peace, your people
Build slowly and stay patient
One life, make it count

how much money was made
is this a joke?
It is becoming f*cking dangerous
A 23-year-old dev from China just ran 300 Claude Code agents in parallel and hooked them to a verification layer so none of them could bullshit him
He opens the live dashboard:
- 300 agents writing and checking at the same time
- Every output verified against the source in ~100 ms
- Three passes over 100 company profiles → zero errors left
- Everything dumped straight into an Obsidian vault
The trick is the split: one model does the work, a cheaper one decides if the claim is actually true. The loop doesn’t stop until everything checks out
An analyst team would bill weeks for this. He got it in one run
Same kind of Second Brain + swarm setup that keeps circulating. Bookmark the full breakdown
