@david_perell There's a great article by @RyanHoliday:
"Are you sure that “getting everything you want” is what you actually want? Will it mean the ability to dictate what you do today?
Because if it doesn’t… well, what’s the point?"

Over the past two years, 36 research institutions worldwide have chosen Theta EdgeCloud as their GPU infrastructure.
We think that's worth marking properly. Here's more info on some of the research taking place on our network right now.🧵
GPU demand across the AI industry is at record levels, and Theta EdgeCloud is no exception. Demand on our network is at an all-time high. 📈

Your brain basically stopped recording your life around age 25. Everything since then is a blur for a reason.
Neuroscientists measured this so many times they named it: the reminiscence bump. Ask anyone over 60 to recall their strongest memories and almost every answer clusters between ages 15 and 25. The decade where everything was new. First job, first apartment, first real relationship. Your brain encoded each day because nothing had a template yet.
After that window closes, most people enter a repetition loop. Same commute, same office, same weekend rhythm. The brain stops recording repeated experiences as distinct events. A year with 300 novel days leaves 300 memory anchors. A year with 10 leaves 10. Both took 365 days to live. Only one of them will exist when you look back.
This is why people at 50 say "where did the time go." The time went into routine that felt like living but left almost nothing behind.
Your remaining years are fixed. How many your brain bothers to remember is entirely up to you.
$40,000-$50,000 gross family income per month in Australia still won’t make you rich. Especially now that CGT taxes are changing and tax rates are already so high on income.
It’s got to be super tempting for families with kids to just go outback Australia and live on dole.
“We’re diagnosing boys with ADHD for acting like boys.”
Erica Komisar said this on Steven Bartlett’s Diary of a CEO. Little boys have a huge testosterone surge between ages 3–6. They need to run, jump, wrestle, and move constantly. Instead, we put them in classrooms that reward sitting still, regulating emotions, and being quiet — behaviors that come more naturally to girls. When they can’t, we label them as disordered.
Boys’ schools get this — they do short lessons then let the kids run around multiple times a day. Regular schools don’t.
It feels like we’ve built an education system that works better for one type of kid and then act surprised when the other type struggles or gets medicated.
These early labels follow boys for years and can damage their confidence and self-image long-term. We’re not letting boys be boys.
Do you think our school system is unfairly set up against how boys naturally learn and behave?
Good morning Australia,
Don’t forget when Declan Cutler was set upon by a group of 8 African gang members.
He suffered 152 injuries, 56 stab wounds and 66 force wounds.
He was an innocent 16 year old boy, slaughtered by Africans in the streets of Melbourne for being white.
Still a clear majority today (~60-70% combined European ancestries per Census), but immigration drives nearly all growth. This is an extrapolation — not official ABS forecast. Policy can change it.
At current trends of low Australian birth rates (~1.5 TFR) and high net overseas migration (mostly from Asia), people of primarily European/Anglo-Celtic descent are projected to become a minority in Melbourne around the late 2030s to mid-2040s (plausibly ~2040).
@7NewsSydney For Melbourne and Sydney, Australians are soon to become a minority - approximately by 2050 according to Grok because it’s happening much faster in those cities. It’s around the corner.
I'm a cardiologist. I've held dying hearts in my hands. Let me tell you what I've learned.
At the end of the day, you live with yourself.
Not with the applause. Not with the criticism. Not with the version of you that performed for strangers. Not with the opinions you chased or the approval you never needed.
Just with the choices you made — and the person you became in the making of them.
The patients who haunt me aren't the ones who died on my table. They're the ones who survived but never started living. The ones who got the second chance and spent it the same way they spent the first — waiting, scrolling, avoiding, postponing the only decision that ever mattered.
I've watched someone take their last breath while their family stood behind the glass realizing that every grudge, every postponed phone call, every "I'll do it next year" was a lie they told themselves about a future that never came.
Time is the only currency that never comes back. Money returns. Opportunities return. Even love sometimes returns. Time — never.
The life you want is not hidden in some distant future. It's waiting on the other side of the decision you're afraid to make right now. The conversation. The risk. The leap. The version of you that stopped rehearsing and finally stepped onto the stage.
Every day you postpone it, the emptiness deepens. Every day you move toward it — even afraid, even uncertain, even alone — something inside you fills back up.
I've been a physician for over twenty years. I left my birth country as a child with nothing. I rebuilt everything from zero. And if there is one truth I would carve into stone, it's this:
You were not built for comfort. You were built for a life that leaves marks.
Sun on your skin. Weight in your hands. Honest words in your mouth. A purpose that pulls you out of bed before the alarm.
Fix your body. Chase the mission. Let the rest fall away.
Say yes to the hard thing.
Build the life.
Step into the arena.
Be grateful. Get moving.
Your heart — the one I treat and the one I'm talking to right now — deserves nothing less.
JUST IN: Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark reportedly warned new recruits to “get hobbies that aren’t computers,” saying the company is building a “superhuman coder with nation-state hacking capabilities.”
Bought BTC at $3.8K in 2020. Bears said $1.8K. It ran to $69K.
Bought at $15K in 2022. Bears said $10K. It did $74K.
BTC at $60K now, 2026. Bears say $50K.
I’m betting $150K next few months.
When a Woman starts calling you jealous, insecure, controlling - that’s a bitch that’s gotten too comfortable with the what you bring to the table. Take it away from her.
Reminder for all young parents:
You only get:
- 1 Summer with your baby
- 3 with your toddler
- 9 with your child
- 5 with your teenager
This time is precious. Don’t rush it.
Matthew McConaughey reveals the difference between a nice guy and a good man
"A nice guy gets along. They don't necessarily have discernment or judgment, not sure what they stand for or stand against. It's like yes, yes, yes, sure"
"A good man has ideals that they stand for and they stand against. And when they're tested, a good man is not a nice guy"
"Being a good man is a lot harder for good reason. Not going to be the most popular. Not going to be always the most affable"
"It also doesn't mean you got to be a dick. It just means sometimes you got to go, I believe in this, this is for me, and that is not for me"
"A good man's not looking for trouble. But if it comes, and if something he cares about was trespassed on, a good man does what he can to stop that"
