Can't believe I've lived long enough to witness another @tweetsauce long-form video come into existence. Glory be to God 😂😂😂😂 Missed these!

Luigi Mangione's Manifesto
“To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

Happy birthday to the late Chadwick Boseman, who would’ve turned 48 today.

@Jacko221b @elonmusk The way he is so casual at it 🔥

So I tried to build a tech company from Norway and here’s what happened:

1. Two years of building without almost any money/funding, better part of a year without salary
2. Raise VC and become one of Norway’s first unicorns
3. Face unrealized gains wealth tax bill of many x my annual net salary. ofc the company is loss making and all the investors have preference shares so I can’t take out any money.
4. Call out publicly that this does not make sense. Independent of level, taxation needs to happen when you actually make money.
5. I move to Switzerland because no politician cares/listens.
6. I still don’t get any tangible and sensible answers to my criticism of unrealized gains tax, BUT I do get put up on the “wall of shame” at the socialist parties offices…

I’m Norwegian and I love Norway but the socialist politicians are taking the country down a dark path. It’s a real life Atlas Shrugged.

@interesting_aIl @interesting_aIl It is a Western idea that Rwandans only play it because it is there, not because they need it That is similar to saying that the only Rwandan traditional dance troupe in the US doesn't have the right equipment. It is not a point of heavy interest/need for us

@its_roggy Are you alright bruv, why you go hatin' on people? 😂😂😂

[Yvan Sugira @SugiraYvan]

So it is all luck after all, back to square one 😂. If we want to we spoil the fun, and not wanting to might spoil the fun too. Hence, we technically can't plan our happiness?? Thoughts ...

I think @HappyHerman01 and @niwe_chaste might like this one 😂

[Yvan Sugira @SugiraYvan]

Talking of exhaustion, (3) becomes stressful down the line and requires you to be serious about the game. No one want to lose their streak, and most are willing to sacrifice their happiness and enjoyment to keep it. Put in the work. Leaving option (2) as the best out there.

[Yvan Sugira @SugiraYvan]

Trying hard but not too hard, being smart at the game but not to smart. Aristotle's Golden ratio. It's only then happiness feels maximal. You didn't land on it by chance or by fate, it feels like you invested some actual effort. But then achieving that happened by mere luck.

[Yvan Sugira @SugiraYvan]

Trying too hard in (3) also feels like you tried all the available options, A, B, C a... and landed the answer only because you had tried everything else. Here also it feels like bland, just hitting around the bush and being lucky enough to hit before you exhaust yourself.

Thread:
I don't know who to tell this but I want to talk about it anyway. I've been playing the WORDLE for almost 2 years now and I think I've realised something that I think is interesting about the human psyche (or the psyche of the people around me). It's a narrow analysis.

[Yvan Sugira @SugiraYvan]

One would typically assume that the goal here is to get the word of the day in as few guesses as possible, I don't think so. Getting the word after 1 or 2 guesses feels bland, like mere luck, no skill required hence pointless and worthless because close to no effort was invested.

[Yvan Sugira @SugiraYvan]

Playing typically implies 4 possible circumstances; 1. You win on the first try or after an abnormally low number of guesses (not beyond 2nd trial), 2. You win after a fair number of trials (3 or 4), 3. A close shave, You win after too many guesses (5 or 6). or 4. No win at all.
