Due to fifa's new H2H rules, for the first time in World Cup history, we will see 2 teams actively wanting to lose a match. In the Austria vs Algeria match, both teams are safely through after beating Jordan due to the new H2H rule. However, the team that finishes in 2nd in Group J will face Spain, when the team that finishes 3rd will likely face Switzerland. Obviously with neither team wanting to face Spain, Austria will be hoping to lose and drop down to 3rd, whilst Alergia will be hoping for a draw or a loss to stay 3rd...
What a bizarre outcome this is.. 🤯

desde 2010 la selección eliminada por el campeón del mundo termina ganando el siguiente Mundial:
Alemania fue eliminada por España en 2010 y ganó en 2014.
Francia fue eliminada por Alemania en 2014 y ganó en 2018.
Argentina fue eliminada por Francia en 2018 y ganó en 2022.
Si la lógica sigue su curso, este Mundial lo ganaría Australia, Holanda, Croacia o Francia, ya que fueron las selecciones eliminadas por Argentina en 2022.
Tomorrow I’ll give the latest update on this militia mobilisation around the country as some politicians allied to the Ruto regime drum up the rhetoric of 41 vs 1 to prep the ground. I’m shocked even Ndii is on board.

BREAKING:
The Netherlands just told its citizens to go to hell.
They just approved a 36% tax on unrealized gains.
You didn't sell anything.
You didn't make a single euro in cash.
Your portfolio went up on paper.
The government sends you a bill anyway.
67,000 citizens petitioned against it.
Parliament approved it anyway.
No cash to pay the tax? Not their problem.
Asset crashes after you paid? Not their problem.
This is not tax policy.
This is the government treating your paper gains as their income.
Before you've made a single euro.
The most talented Dutch investors are already leaving.
The most ambitious builders are already gone.
Capital goes where it is treated best.
And right now that is anywhere but the Netherlands.
2028 is coming. Plan accordingly.
The best career advice I got from my first mentor:
Don't go into management. Stay an IC.
At first I thought he was wrong. We're taught at a young age that "success" is a fancy title and a ton of people that report to you.
It turns out he was right.
Middle management is the most dangerous seat in corporate America. Simply put, it's much harder to replace a top performer doing the actual hands on work, vs. someone someone overseeing it.
As a top performing IC, I made more than the managers above me on commission alone. And I had more leverage, because I was a top producer who could point to a number to show literally how valuable I was to the company.
When business goes south, companies don't fire the people building the product or closing the deals.
They fire the people scheduling meetings about the product.
This guy at Meta survived the round but got converted back to IC and he's calling it "suboptimal."
It's not. It's the safer seat, especially in this market. He just doesn't see it yet.
Tie your name to a number or tie it to code. Everything else is overhead.
