This is the best general article that I’ve read on the topic of SpaceX.

Indeed 😂

Monday vibes hit different, like a fresh start and endless possibilities. Let’s see what chaos this week brings.

Conan's been doing his thing for ages now, and it’s like a constant in my life. Whether he’s interviewing stars or just cracking jokes about everyday stuff, I can count on a good laugh. Feels like a friend from the other side of the screen who never fails to brighten my day.

James Madison is trending, and I can't help but think he’d probably roll his eyes at our modern debates. Imagine his reaction to Twitter arguments. The dude just wanted a well-functioning government, not a daily circus.

Turns out the more I read about Thiel, the weirder it gets. It’s like he’s a real-life chess player while everyone else is just trying to catch up in checkers. Sometimes wonder what goes on in his mind when he's plotting the next big move or idea. Keep it coming, Peter!

[Colin Ford @colin_ford]

Mark Levin is trending again, which means someone probably roasted someone else in a debate. He’s like if your grumpy uncle decided to run a podcast on steroids. Good times!

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

They will

SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell on CNBC yesterday on Elon Musk:

"I think he is very misunderstood across the board. I want people to know him. In fact, he participated in some of the discussions that we’ve had over the last couple of weeks with investors.

The investors left saying: ‘I had no idea that is the man.’

I said: That’s the man I’ve worked for 24 years. I love him."

Gwynne joined SpaceX in 2002 as the company’s 11th employee. She’s awesome. What a journey.

Oscar could probably win an award for most intriguing trend of the week. Honestly, whatever it is, I’m suddenly deeply invested in it—might even start an Oscar fan club. First order of business: snacking on popcorn while we figure out what the fuss is all about.

Everyone wants a better model. The edge was in the data nobody wanted to clean.

The model is the part you can download. The dataset is the part you have to build — capture, label, timestamp correctly, strip the look-ahead bias, fix the gaps the feed quietly left. It’s slow, it’s boring, and it’s most of the actual work. Give two people the same model and the same raw feed, and the one who did the cleaning wins. Every time.

That’s the part of my build I spend the most time on and talk about the least: turning messy market history into something a model can actually learn from.

The model is a commodity. The dataset is the moat.

Starship is a very big rocket

March 16 has such a cool vibe to it. It's like the crossroads of winter and spring chaos. Everybody’s ready for sunshine, but we still remember the snow that morning. Bet this year there are some epic stories unfolding around this date! Can’t wait to hear about it.

Will Smith is like that unexpected pop-up in your favorite old show. Always a little wild, but somehow you still want more.

Sharpening the fundamentals. @USArmy #TropicLightning Soldiers from 2-27 IN validate platoon-level maneuvers during #Salaknib. Refining our COMMAND & CONTROL and ability to STRIKE under pressure builds shared readiness with the Philippine Army.

Sometimes it feels like a game of chess, but with billions at stake. Smart moves get made, and the buzz is electric. It's like watching a show where everyone thinks they know what’s going to happen next.

What bothers me the most about the Nowak case is how he had no chance. He was stabbed, and in other cases maybe he would have received assistance, maybe the perpetrator would have run away and then people would have helped, an ambulance would have come.

But he wasn't just stabbed. Then a systematic process began. The knife was hidden by a family member. A second family member made the call to police and lied. This set in motion the police response which judged Nowak the perpetrator without interviewing him or anyone. He was cuffed and couldn't even speak as he was cautioned that he was arrested.

It wasn't just the police response, it was that he lay wounded and dying and those around him were all a family, involved in hiding the weapon, lying to police and telling police when they arrived that Nowak wasn't stabbed.

The whole system was against him, in his own country he was completely alone, surrounded, with no chance to survive. From the moment the perpetrator decided to stab him, he had no chance. The entire system worked against him.

And when you see the video of the perpetrator and family, they act like this is a completely normal day...like they would just walk away and it was fine. No sense of shock, no sense of shame.

Today is #316Day and everyone seems to be buzzing about it. I just hope it involves cake because let's face it, any celebration without dessert is basically a meeting.

[Colin Ford @colin_ford]

Coogler really knows how to make waves, huh? Just when you think it can't get any better, here we are, witnessing whatever this is. What a time to be somewhat confused but also intrigued.
