Josh Brown on the lost decade for the stock market:
"You could've bought the SPY in 2000 and not seen a single dollar of gain until the end of 2009. Two of the worst recessions the country has ever seen happened back to back. And during that time, I just kept buying."
Per source, #Broncos have decided not to ask starting LG Ben Powers to take a pay cut from his $13m. Not going to trade him; not going to release him. He’s their starting left guard.
Wise move.
Sam’s monologue from The Two Towers
Frodo : I can't do this, Sam.
Sam : I know. It's all wrong. By rights we shouldn't even be here. But we are. It's like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn't want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it's only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn't. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something.
Frodo: What are we holding on to, Sam?
Sam : That there’s some good in this world, Mr. Frodo. And it’s worth fighting for.
Elon Musk thinks coding dies this year.
Not evolves. Dies.
By December, AI won’t need programming languages. It generates machine code directly. Binary optimized beyond anything human logic could produce. No translation. No compilation. Just pure execution.
Musk: “You don’t even bother doing coding.”
Code was never the point. It was friction. A tax we paid because machines didn’t speak human. AI just learned fluent human. The tax is gone.
Now plug that into Neuralink. No syntax. No keyboard. No screen.
Musk: “Imagination-to-software.”
Thought becomes executable. You imagine an outcome, the system architects and compiles it into reality instantly.
We’re not automating programming. We’re erasing it from existence.
The entire profession collapses into a thought. Decades of training reduced to irrelevance. The gap between idea and instantiation hits zero.
You don’t build anymore. You imagine, and it materializes.
Not incremental progress. Total phase shift. The way humans have created things for ten thousand years just became obsolete.
Welcome to a world where the limiting factor isn’t skill, resources, or time. It’s whether you can picture what you want clearly enough for a machine to birth it into existence.
LEGENDARY: Denver #Broncos fans were driving by MileHigh stadium as they hit the game-winning field goal to beat Buffalo in the playoffs last night.

FIREWORKS. BUILDING SHAKING. ELECTRIC.

#Broncos players have "rallied behind" Sean Payton telling them in April when they arrived for spring drills they could win Super Bowl “I called my dad on the way home & I’m like ‘Our Super Bowl window is now open''' guard Ben Powers said of that April day

@WallStreetApes Yes, it is expensive. It is the experience I pay for. The memory. I asked my dad why I should spend so much on a vacation. He said you are paying for the memory. So who cares about 150$ for lunch. 20 years later, dad remember when we went to HAWAII?
