The NYT is finally catching up... If you're early in your career or still building, remote work is brutal: - You miss real training, feedback, and institutional knowledge - Productivity drops ~20% (MIT study) - No mentors. No company culture. - No bonding. No happy hours. - Fewer real work friends - Divorce rates and mental health issues spike - Fewer spontaneous opportunities (client meetings, drinks with the boss, hallway ideas) - Lower promotions and job security long-term

Extraordinary Claims Require Extraordinary Evidence. A news story broke there's massive structures beneath the Pyramid of Khafre, something far beyond the tech level assumed of ancient Egyptians. What can back these claims? Extraordinary technology: Synthetic Aperture Radar🧵

As we offload more cognition to AI, does that diminish our net cognitive capacity, or is that capacity reallocated for other cognitive faculties to grow into?

Most dangerous thing for country about Trump coin is what comes next. Now anyone in world can essentially deposit money into bank account of President of USA with a couple clicks. Every favor - geopolitical, corporate or personal - is now on sale, right out in the open.

👍 The most patriotic thing you can do for your country is your homework. Dying is easy. Math is hard. Give this a watch, it’s funny because it’s true.

At any point in life, you can just decide to live a different life It’s one of the most powerful (and scariest) secrets around. Everything is a concept in your head
In my early twenties I was a heavy smoker. Tried quitting for more than a year with no luck. One day I had a profound realization of my own free will (felt like an insight from meditation or prayer). I could choose not to smoke. Quit overnight with no issues.

Ep 1 of my Netflix series Ancient Apocalypse showcases Indonesia's Gunung Padang, possibly the world's oldest pyramidal structure, & honors the work of indigenous geologist Danny Hilman Natawidjaja. The archaeo-mafia were furious. But now... vindication: sciencealert.com/giant-pyram…

liz warren's expectation: hardened terrorists raised $130m+ in crypto to fund their operations reality of terrorist financing with blockchains:

so just to recap - WSJ journalists (Angus Berwick & Ian Talley) write a flurry of articles citing Elliptic data claiming that PIJ (Hamas affiliate) raised $93m in crypto (and cites BitOK claiming Hamas raised $41m) [1] - Sen Warren uses this article to claim that Hamas raised "over $130m" in crypto. This article is her SOLE citation in her letter. The entire letter depends on the WSJ article [2] - Over 100 member of Congress sign the letter, which asks for the Biden admin to further crack down on crypto - Chainalysis comes out with an article disputing the WSJ claims, saying that instead of $82m of terror financing, the real figure is around $450k. It's unclear which wallets they are referring to. Either way, it looks like the WSJ analysis is vastly overstated [3] - WSJ refuses to follow up or retract, instead writing more articles relying on their claims [1] archive.ph/hdcWc [2] warren.senate.gov/imo/media/… [3] chainalysis.com/blog/cryptoc…
