I think one reason life feels less exciting now is that we’ve removed anticipation from almost everything. You don’t wait a week for the next episode you just binge the whole season. You don’t wonder what someone is doing you can see it instantly on instagram. You don’t wait for photos to be developed, a package to arrive, a song to come on the radio, or a restaurant to open nearby. Everything is available almost Immediately. And that sounds objectively better. But anticipation was part of what brought joy and novelty.
Waiting gave things more weight and scarcity made things feel special. Looking forward to something stretched the enjoyment far beyond the actual thing itself. Now we consume experiences almost as quickly as we discover them, and then immediately look for the next one. We became so good at eliminating anticipation that we eliminated most of the excitement with it. That’s why so much of life feels flat. We have more access to anything than ever, but way fewer things, if anything, we genuinely have to look forward to.
Maybe one of the biggest mistakes modern culture made was treating responsibility as the enemy of freedom.
Marriage restricts you. Children restrict you. Owning a home restricts you. Caring for family restricts you. A career restricts you. Community obligations restrict you.
Of course they do. Anything meaningful places demands on you.
But if you remove every obligation in pursuit of maximum freedom, eventually you’re left with a life where nobody needs you, nothing depends on you and there’s very little bigger than yourself.
We talk constantly about wanting meaning while systematically avoiding the exact commitments that tend to create it. And I guarantee you there’s going to be a lot of sad and lonely people in our aging generation because of this nearsighted pursuit.
NEW: America’s biggest berry empire doesn’t actually grow berries.
Driscoll’s is the middleman that controls the genetics, reaps the profits, and then shifts blame.
A whistleblower alleges the Canadian government repeatedly flagged their berries for exceeding pesticide limits.
Most successful people had a period in their life where they grinded like this non stop…
I’m not saying do this all the time.
But consider it a launch pad every time you get into this mode.
When you stack every moment and every movement things start to move exponentially.
$HOOD Robinhood’s Platinum Credit Card for $695/yr fee you get the following below.

Worth it?
$TEM is still wildly undervalued.
Here's how I think the business should be valued over the next 12 months:
DATA & APPLICATIONS
-> Annualized revenue based on Q2 is currently ~$410M. Growth at a similar rate into FY27 would put us at $525M.
-> This business has 73% gross margins so at 28% YoY growth and those margins it's putting up figures like a solid SaaS company.
-> $525M * 10x sales = $5.3B
-> $525M * 12x sales = $6.3B
DIAGNOSTICS
-> Generated $293.3M in Q2 alone which is $1.2B annualized. Growth at a similar rate gets us to $1.5B in FY27.
-> And plus, $TEM recently received FDA approval on xT CDx test which brings tumor DNA portfolio under reimbursement pricing.
-> This adds another $200 in selling prices that management forecast to be ~$85M in incremental revenue.
-> That puts our FY27 revenue base closer to the $1.5B range.
-> $GH (closest peer) is trading at 13x sales today on ~35% CAGR for the next 2 years. $TEM is likely growing at ~24% CAGR.
-> If we take a 10x multiple on this we have a potential $15B business here alone.
$6B + $15B -> $21B (vs $10B today).
Longer term my forecasts are even higher.
Palantir CEO Alex Karp on why retail investors beat the analysts:
“The average American was a lot smarter. Listened. Not bigoted. Not held down by a set of training beliefs.
“I run into people all over America, the world, people who have normal means who are now rich because of Palantir. You know who’s not rich because of Palantir? The people who read the analysts notes, and the people who wrote them.
“They’re still kinda angry because while they’re cruising in their broken down car, the person cruising next to them in their beautiful Tesla is providing actual value.
“I love that. Nothing makes me happier than looking in my minds eye than looking at the bank executive who’s living on the drip drip of some high interest loan watching some person who’s free, who didn’t go to an elite school but knew enough—probably because they didn’t go to an elite school—to buy Palantir.”
