El problema no es ese Daniel, el problema de la corrupción no es el dinero que se roba, eso es lo de menos.
El problema de la corrupción es que no se asignan los contratos a las empresas más capacitadas, sino a las que hacen trampas. Y si hacen trampas en el proceso de contratación, qué no harán en la ejecución.
El problema de la corrupción es que los responsables políticos, como el ministro que ahora se encuentra en la cárcel, en vez de tener el 100% de la atención en su trabajo, que es de extrema importancia, la tienen en otra parte.
El problema de la corrupción es que mina la confianza en las instituciones y en el estado, incentiva al resto a saltarse las normas lo que empieza una espiral de degradación donde si no pasas por el aro, si actúas con integridad, simplemente dejas de existir, lo que causa que al final todo se vaya a la mierda.
Ese es el problema de la corrupción.
¿Sabías que hay el doble de futbolistas nacidos en enero que en diciembre? No es "un efecto curioso". Son el DOBLE. Mirad el gráfico.
Y no es casualidad: si naces en enero tienes más opciones de ser profesional.
¿Por qué? 👇
My friend’s Dad has a part time job.
He’s had it for 30 years.
He does nothing but go to the warehouse of a major distributor, and when the semi drivers arrive, he jumps into the truck and backs them into the loading docks.
He does it perfectly, every time, first time, no matter how tight the fit.
The company says his job saves them an insane amount of money in damages and delays every year, they can’t duplicate what he does at other sites, and they don’t want him to quit…
because no one else can do it.
This is peak masculinity.

LLMs are intelligent, but they clearly aren't conscious?
You could (incredibly slowly) run an LLM by hand by doing the matrix calculations with a pen and paper, would that be conscious? There is zero difference between doing that and doing it on a GPU except its faster.
for all you know, this could be your last summer.
as homer wrote, you will never be lovelier than you are right now. so tell her she has a pretty smile. get lean or become a unit. find wonder in boarding the airplane. drink more coffee than you need. walk on the beach until your feet hurt. write your girlfriend a note on a tuesday. waste money because its not all about retirement. pull over at the lookout. ask the uber driver about his life. tell the woman in the elevator you like her shoes and mean it. call your mother. ask the waiter his favorite thing on the menu and order that.
theres so much life in the slow moments, and you sprint past it chasing the next thing. but at any time, in any situation, you can find the good. smile. be happy. recognize it for a one of one life experience. what good is walking around a curmudgeon when tomorrow could be curtains.
for heavens sake, flirt with the world.
Nicolai Tangen has interviewed all the most important CEOs and investors in the world (that's what $2T AUM buy you: lots of access). He has also interviewed a fair number of HF managers. Here are my favorites. Even so, it's almost 4 hrs. But I recommend actually listening, over the gemini summary.

I forget who said it but a post said "buying my 30 year old daughter with 3 kids a mini van has a bigger impact in her life than $300,000 when I am dead" (something like that)
I have never stopped thinking about it and will use that as a compass as my kids get married, have kids, buy houses etc.
If you’re living in Dubai, this is a thread for you:
2 years ago, I started putting some effort into improving my quality of life.
Here are some of the best changes I’ve made so far:

I installed multiple Atem X Air Purifier units from IQAir at home and in my gym.
