I strive to make my writing unsummarizable, in the sense that it has so little fluff left in it that if you take any words out, as summaries by definition do, you lose a lot of interesting ideas.

To everyone complaining about Gen Z, let's take a look at the evidence:

Young adults today are more empathetic, less narcissistic, more open-minded, more inclusive, and more patient than their predecessors. Bullying and drug use are also down.

The kids might be all right.

It could actually be a significant problem that Europe doesn't have enough garages. This sounds like a joke, but I'm serious. Garages let you work on stuff that doesn't matter yet, which is how big things often start. The outliers of ideas need the outliers of space.

Pune: Dead Fish Cover Pashan Lake, Residents Demand Immediate Action

Pune, April 9, 2026: Pashan Lake is witnessing an environmental crisis as dead fish continue to float on its surface, raising serious concerns about aquatic life. The situation has been attributed to alleged negligence by the Pune Municipal Corporation.

Already covered extensively with water hyacinth, the lake has become increasingly uninhabitable for aquatic species. Over the past five days, large numbers of dead fish have been seen floating throughout the lake, creating a foul stench that poses health risks to nearby residents.

Charlie Munger: "One of my favorite tricks is the inversion process."

"If somebody hired me to fix India, I would immediately say, 'What could I do if I really wanted to hurt India?' I'd figure out all the things that could most easily hurt India — and then I'd figure out how to avoid them."

"It works better frequently to invert the problem."
