You can outperform most venture funds by buying LEGO.

I analyzed the last 20 years of secondhand LEGO pricing data, and found randomly purchasing sets will match most VC's returns

if you're somewhat intentional about what you buy-- you massively outperform even the best firms

Man hätte nie sagen sollen "fürs Klima sollt ihr Gasheizungen durch Wärmepumpen ersetzen" sondern "Gasheizungen sind technisch überholt, langfristig wird es keine Gasleitungen mehr geben, steigt rechtzeitig um, bevor eure Gasheizung kaputtgeht und ihr keine mehr bekommt."

The down-side of AI is that it commodifies everything to the point where nothing has meaning anymore. The first 2-3 spirals were cool, likewise 4-5 checkerboards, but it only took days to descend into meaninglessness — now branded as a genre.

Have you noticed this so far?

Kreide auf die Tafel. Kind fotografiert sie mit seinem Smartphone und WhatsAppt das Foto an mich, damit ich die Sachen besorge. Es lebe 2023!

I was a believer of the 9/11 inside job conspiracy theory for 15 years. It was my gateway to the rabbit hole. Thankfully, today, I am now an ex-truther.

This picture clearly shows the core of WTC 1&2. This picture is one that no 9/11 conspiracist will show you because it destroys their argument.

You can see quite clearly that there would have been no controlled demolitions needed for it to collapse.

Do all the mental gymnastics you want, but the truth is simple. A plane flew into each building. The impact, explosion, and fire weakened the core. The weight of the floors above the impact zone buckled the steel. And it all came down.

No mystery. No inside job. Stop believing fantasies and wake up!

The Daily Beast is reporting that Elon Musk ordered engineers to switch off his Starlink satellites just as Ukraine was preparing to attack the Russian naval fleet with drones. He said he feared nuclear retaliation by Russia. It’s high time we ask the question: How much power and influence does it make sense to hand just one person?

@Rekrut_K Joa, die meine ich. Ja, die Messe ist weit weg... trotzdem bekomme ich es immer mit, weil eine Woche lang in jedem Park irgend ein Cosplay-Picknick ist und jeder Straßenbahn ein verkleidetes Grüppchen sitzt. Ich find's super :)
