@dannycheng2022 @Danny, I trimmed 9% of my position at $504. Plan to hold the rest. Smart to trim at these levels?!

“But healthy food is expensive.”

The only reason junk food seems cheap is because we are subsidizing the most common unhealthy ingredients.

We need to move those subsidies to healthy REAL food.

If you’re an able-bodied male with a halfway decent attitude you can be 99th percentile successful by:

-going hard in the gym
-putting 25% more effort in at work and getting promoted

Zero talent required. Jacked, healthy, wealthy, baddie wife, amazing life. ALL you need to do is have BASELINE level follow-through and not be a whiny little bitch.

You live in a world where:

-gyms, aux chords, and Christopher Nolan movies exist
-hot girls outnumber even moderately put-together dudes 2000 to 1
-every food item in the world has been hunted and gathered for you (grocery stores)
-you could be working 16 hour days in a coal mine in a 3rd world country breaking your lower back for less than $1

Motherfuckers are sitting on winning lottery tickets pissing them away on junk food and OnlyFans subscriptions (pixels on a screen) instead of sacking up asking out the baddie at their coffee shop. Or saying to their boss “hey sir I wanna make sure I understand this right could you explain it one more time” then knocking it out of the park like a chill/straightshooting gentleman. Like the cool Sophomore the Seniors loved because he hit hard and didn’t complain and was generous with his weed pen at parties.

The level of ingratitude in the world is INSANE.

There’s kids who live in wheelchairs. There’s kids who were born with disabilities. No Prom, no Shoulder Presses, no sleepovers with their best friends staying up til 2AM watching Superbad.

And you’re not SMASHING the gym like a grateful savage!? Eating healthy 90% of the time, calling your friends for no reason, CRUSHING it in your career, building yourself into a HERO for your wife!?

How are you not joyful AF borderline moved to tears everyday!? You’re spinning on a sphere in an infinite universe and the fact you’re alive is a 1 in 500 trillion - you’re so lucky it’s absurd and you have nothing to lose!

Go MAXIMIZE your potential and while you’re doing it have a BLAST!

Experts now consider strength training the single most potent habit for aging gracefully and extending lifespan.

Far from being just for athletes or bodybuilders, lifting weights—or any form of resistance exercise, including body-weight moves—has emerged as one of the most powerful tools for healthy aging. It does far more than add muscle: it fortifies bones, revs up metabolism, and sharply lowers the odds of diabetes, heart disease, and other chronic conditions.

As we get older, strength training switches on bone-forming cells, fights the natural loss of muscle mass known as sarcopenia, and keeps metabolism humming efficiently. For women, it’s especially valuable, helping offset the rapid bone-density decline triggered by menopause.

The benefits extend well beyond the physical. Regular resistance work improves balance and coordination, dramatically cutting the risk of falls—the top cause of injury among older adults. It also protects the brain by enhancing insulin sensitivity, dialing down inflammation, and reducing dementia risk.

The good news? You don’t need heavy barbells or punishing workouts. Even moderate, consistent strength training delivers profound gains in both quality of life and longevity. In the words of one leading researcher, “Building and maintaining muscle may be the single best investment you can make in your future health and independence.”

Last year I eliminated our PTO policy.

I called it "unlimited."

The board loved it.

HR loved it.

Finance really loved it.

Let me explain why Finance loved it.

Under the old policy, employees accrued 18 days per year. Unused days carried over. When employees quit, we owed them money. Cash. For days they earned but didn't take.

That's a liability. On the books. $4.7 million in accrued PTO across 2,300 employees.

I made it disappear.

With one policy change.

"Unlimited PTO."

You can't accrue what's infinite. You can't owe what was never counted. The liability vanished. $4.7 million. Gone.

The CFO sent me a bottle of wine.

I told employees it was about "trust and flexibility."

It was about the balance sheet.

But "balance sheet optimization" doesn't fit on a careers page.

"Unlimited PTO" does.

We updated the job postings.

Applications increased 23%.

People love unlimited.

Until they try to use it.

Under the old policy, employees took an average of 17 days per year.

Under unlimited, they take 11.

That's not a bug.

That's the design.

When PTO is a number, people take the number. It's theirs. They earned it. Managers can't argue with a number.

When PTO is "unlimited," people take nothing.

Because unlimited comes with questions.

"Is this a good time?"

"Who's covering?"

"What will people think?"

The guilt does the enforcement.

I don't have to say no.

The culture says no.

I just built the culture.

We track time-off requests in Workday. I see everything.

A senior engineer requested two weeks in July.

His manager approved it.

Officially.

Then sent a Slack message.

"Totally fine. Just wanted to flag that the Erikson deliverable overlaps. Probably fine. Just flagging."

The engineer took four days.

Unlimited means whatever your anxiety allows.

For most people, that's less than before.

Some employees don't take any PTO.

We call them "high performers."

They get promoted.

Then they manage others.

They don't approve much PTO either.

The system self-replicates.

A recruiter asked how we "stay competitive."

I said, "Unlimited PTO."

She asked how much people actually take.

I said, "That's not tracked."

It is tracked.

I have a dashboard.

I don't share the dashboard.

We did an employee survey.

84% said they "appreciated the flexibility of unlimited PTO."

12% said they "wished they felt more comfortable taking time off."

We published the 84%.

The 12% went in a folder.

The folder is called "Noted."

I don't open that folder.

Someone in engineering asked if we could go back to accrued PTO.

I said, "That would limit your flexibility."

He said he wanted limits.

I said, "That's not aligned with our culture of trust."

He stopped asking.

Trust is a funny word.

I trust employees to feel too guilty to use their benefits.

They trust me to frame that guilt as freedom.

That's the deal.

I'm presenting at an HR conference next month.

The session is called "Unlimited PTO: Building a Culture of Ownership."

Ownership means employees own their guilt.

I own the savings.

The policy costs us nothing.

Because employees take nothing.

And call it a benefit.

I'll be VP of People by Q2.

Unlimited upside.

“The distance between deciding and doing is the single most reliable predictor of whether your life will be extraordinary or ordinary.”

These three paragraphs will change your life:

[Andrej Karpathy @karpathy]

Agency > Intelligence

I had this intuitively wrong for decades, I think due to a pervasive cultural veneration of intelligence, various entertainment/media, obsession with IQ etc. Agency is significantly more powerful and significantly more scarce. Are you hiring for agency? Are we educating for agency? Are you acting as if you had 10X agency?

Grok explanation is ~close:

“Agency, as a personality trait, refers to an individual's capacity to take initiative, make decisions, and exert control over their actions and environment. It’s about being proactive rather than reactive—someone with high agency doesn’t just let life happen to them; they shape it. Think of it as a blend of self-efficacy, determination, and a sense of ownership over one’s path.

People with strong agency tend to set goals and pursue them with confidence, even in the face of obstacles. They’re the type to say, “I’ll figure it out,” and then actually do it. On the flip side, someone low in agency might feel more like a passenger in their own life, waiting for external forces—like luck, other people, or circumstances—to dictate what happens next.

It’s not quite the same as assertiveness or ambition, though it can overlap. Agency is quieter, more internal—it’s the belief that you *can* act, paired with the will to follow through. Psychologists often tie it to concepts like locus of control: high-agency folks lean toward an internal locus, feeling they steer their fate, while low-agency folks might lean external, seeing life as something that happens *to* them.”

🚨 Jose Bautista’s Key Adjustment

• A late load will force you to be too quick & out of balance trying to catch up.

• Think “Slower & Earlier”

• On time + under control is the key that unlocked his swing.

⭐️ Great lesson for young hitters. Get the foot down early!
