This month @gmtgames update (https://t.co/e0DmsthmMO) provides much insight into the tactical warfare title - Decisive Action. This game has one of the coolest box graphics I have recently seen!

@honestpollster We need to remove regulations that “lock-in” monopolies. Barriers to entry are the incumbent lobbyists beloved weapon.

@gtconway3d George,… Buy a vowel. I like the Stars and Stripes when I am stationed overseas (pre internet). But it is a mouthpiece for whatever admin is in office AND the Pentagon. Don’t attribute some higher purpose.

@honestpollster Where is Upton Sinclair? You need him for the modern jungle.

[Heavy Metal @DavidMoline2]

@ConstitustionX @denniskneale I want arrests, convictions, jail and confiscation of fraudulently funds anything short of that is just more BS.

@SebastianBae Love it!

@wartirnes It was also used twice that I know of in the Gulf War. The effects were devastating collapsing bunker complexes across the border. It was used as a psychological weapon. Leaflets were dropped saying they were going to use it and told when.

The BLU-82 “Daisy Cutter” was first used in the Vietnam War for tactical and logistical purposes, not just for destruction.

The nearly 15,000-pound bomb generated a massive shockwave capable of clearing dense jungle and creating instant helicopter landing zones.

@DavidZsutty @JesseKellyDC Are you a bot or dumb? What a tool. I am sure you are accomplishing a much higher purpose.

@CptcurtX We just lost our 11 year old doodle yesterday also. I feel your pain and have deepest sympathies.

[Heavy Metal @DavidMoline2]

@LisaintheMtns My most sincere condolences. We had the exact same thing happen to our eleven year old golden doodle yesterday. It was a hard day to be a great dog yesterday. We have two more that are trying to fill the void. Wish you comfort during this time.

A Princeton grad walked off a Wall Street trading desk, won a World Series of Poker bracelet, then stood at an MIT chalkboard and gave away how the best players in the world actually think.

MIT filmed it. it has been free since 2015. 11 years later almost nobody who watched it changed how they play.

his point is simple. there are two ways to play poker. most people take the read based approach, trying to guess what the other guy has and reacting to it.

the better path is game theoretic, building a strategy that holds up no matter who sits across from you.

he explains it with jujitsu. beginners learn moves that crush other beginners, and those same moves get you choked out against a black belt. so you train from day one to beat black belts. poker is the same.

the tight style that prints money in a home game gets you eaten alive at real stakes.

the man at the board is Matt Hawrilenko, once considered one of the best limit hold em players alive, later trading the felt for clinical psychology at Harvard.

skip to where he separates value betting from bluffing and shows how to price your whole range at once, not one hand at a time. that is the part that separates grinders from winners.

no reads. no tells.

one strategy that works all the way up.

a poker friend of mine rewatches this before every serious session.

save while it's still free and public.

Atlanta Dog fights 13 coyotes attacking his sheep.
Kills 8 on the spot.
Goes missing 4 days.
Comes home after killing the remaining 5.

Hats off

@lappinc83 @honestpollster Sponsor a poll then!

@thomas_garrard Going through something very similar now. Dogs are the best. We can only strive to deserve them.

You and Sadie are in my prayers.

Someone once asked me:

“It is better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.

But how does the warrior stay a warrior when life becomes peaceful?”

I thought about that for a while.

And I think the question may be backwards.

A warrior in a garden does not spend every morning proving that he is still a warrior.

He tends the garden.

He protects what has grown there.

He fixes what is broken.

He teaches the young.

He does the difficult things nobody sees.

And when the people he loves can sleep without fear, he does not wonder whether he has become weak.

That was the point.

Perhaps peace does not mean the warrior has lost his purpose.

Perhaps peace is what all that training was for.

We spend so much of our lives asking:

Am I still strong?
Am I still useful?
Am I still respected?
Do I still matter?

Maybe those are the wrong questions.

Look at what is under your protection.

Is your family safe?

Are the people around you stronger because you are there?

Did you do what needed to be done today, even when nobody was watching?

Then the warrior is still there.

A sword is not valuable because it is always drawn.

Sometimes its highest purpose is making sure it never needs to be.

Take care of your garden.

That may be the greatest battle you ever win.
