@zachtratar All great points. The US is the best country in the world, and there’s not a remotely close #2

@micsolana NYT’s FTX reporting was the final straw for me.. unsubscribed from every newsletter yesterday

sincerely can't believe how many things have happened this week

@JoeCassandra Real estate is a relatively efficient market, just like everything else.

Index funds are a great way to predictably compound wealth over the long term. Most people should not be targeting outlier returns.

[Connor @ConnorJQuirk]

@ubzdur @FitFounder Basically yes. The term refers to sub-anaerobic pace.

The only way to know your exact threshold between aerobic & anaerobic speed is a lactate test, but the best proxy for aerobic pace is if you can have a conversation while exercising.

[Connor @ConnorJQuirk]

@zachtratar Agree. & per the theme of your 🧵.. in a world where B2B becomes less customized, more standardized, AE’s can scale sub-linearly

@larryvc Amazon’s speed and reliability is continuously amazing.. not a crowd pleaser, I know

[Connor @ConnorJQuirk]

@tjack @vicyaqingyang Helps tremendously to have domain experience. Extremely challenging to do this from a blank slate, particularly in B2B.

As we read, the muscles that generate speech engage. The same phenomenon does not occur when we hear or listen to sentences. In other words, reading is a form of speech practice. The science & implications of this are in the Huberman Lab Podcast out now: https://t.co/RTtVQBFFJS

@david_lundeen12 @mattyglesias Most rural markets pay doctors *more*, doctors take pay cuts to be based in highly competitive urban areas

@AdamLBrown3 @omnicronicles @gregorytcarlock @AdamSJermyn @Noahpinion What does?

[Connor @ConnorJQuirk]

@omnicronicles @gregorytcarlock @AdamSJermyn @Noahpinion ⬆️ That. Barring a commensurate reduction in spending, the government prints more money to finance its budget. Ultimately, that new money flows through the economy, raising the price level born by all consumers.

@patrick_oshag A little off the wall, but I’d argue that if you can only solve for 1 metric long-term: inflammation

[Manu Raju @mkraju]

Twenty-four House Republicans defied party leaders and joined Democrats to approve the bill boosting semi-conducter chip production and scientific research. Bill goes to Biden’s desk. It passed, 243-187-1

@NateSilver538 How would a 3rd party avoid crippling one side or the other?

Barring the unlikely chance it draws evenly from both sides.

The binary nature of election outcomes dictates that a 3rd party is almost structurally infeasible, no?

@patrick_oshag Consumer banks - average lifetime checking accounts is something like 1.5
