It's incredible how far you can go if you just don't stop.

Play is solemnity, not silliness. Adults who try to “recapture their childhood” often do so by trying to capture the whimsy of childhood. But play is serious for children, not whimsical. It’s whimsical for adults to watch, so the wires get crossed. They are “recapturing” the feeling of watching themselves watch children, watching their own memories, not of being a child. To recapture your childhood energy, take something incredibly seriously.

One thing that really stuck with me was reading Schumpeter during my first year of college. He wrote that capitalism’s greatest achievement wasn’t producing more silk stockings for queens, but making them affordable for factory girls.

That’s exactly what technology is doing today. Rich people have personal assistants managing their calendars and emails, chauffeurs driving them around, and people organizing their meals and daily lives.

Now everyone is getting AI agents and self-driving cars. Technology gradually turns the privileges of the rich into products available to everyone.

I’m in love with this sentence:

Home grown inflation in Australia (non-tradable) is running at 4.4% and that is set to rise amidst electricity subsidy driven base effects.

This is not a good place to be in and this was already an issue prior to the war.

And that is 100% on policymakers.

Every glib, arrogant, virtue-signalling celebrity who’s broadcast the lie that kids will kill themselves if not allowed to transition deserves to have this read aloud to them non-stop through a megaphone for a year.

Did you know the Swastika was actually an Indian religious symbol that the Nazis imported by way of a fraud Luciferian occultist? There's a lot of funny stuff going on here.

Another great day to remind you that the people turning the temperature up and up are actually the problem, not part of the solution to the problem. Chaos is a ladder.

The best engineers I've met weren't obsessed with code.

They were obsessed with solving problems.

Code was just the tool.

One of the greatest viruses of the modern man is looking at Instagram Stories. You will melt your brain looking at a barrage of outcomes—like vacations, parties, cars—with no visibility of the process that got them there.

Nobody tells you this: the single most transformative habit isn't meditation, exercise, or journaling. It's catching yourself mid-pattern and choosing differently. In real time. Not in reflection. Not in hindsight. In the actual moment. That micro-interruption is worth more than any morning routine.

Let me give a simple way to split the mathematics/physics communities now wrestling with AI.

If top people (medalists) representing the math/physics community are telling you that seeing our students thrive is of paramount importance, they are *provably* in denial or delusional.

If you ever arrive to a hotel too early and the room isn’t ready, sprawl out in the lobby, put on a sleeping mask and start loudly snoring.

Your room will be ready in 5 minutes.

the Australia of post Bondi Massacre is, however, a different place, because the Australia of easy familiarity and everyone having their time & space ended with innocents being murdered on a Sunday afternoon by terrorists who should never have been free in this country

I’m in love with this sentence:

“There is no secret trick. You have to feel the discomfort and still move forward.”

Vested interest are warning Australia could face a technical recession if migration is cut.

Australians have been in a per-capita recession for years. Their lives have been getting worse because of migration.

Canada has shown living standards improve when migration is cut.

one of the interesting modern realities is that once virtually every household supplied two workers to the workforce the relative economic advantage of having two incomes pretty much disappeared & every scarce good like housing simply went up in price.

not to mention so many other second & third order effects of this.
