Lying to kids is the worst types of lies. It points to selfishness, laziness or lack of genuine responsibility.

[Roy Jafari @JafariRoy]

Lying is instrumental use of language.

The only sensible and charitable explanation is giving the “changed” regime a real chance. It might not look from outside but a meaningful change has happened in IR, its scale and success runway are unknown. This MoU is testing if the change is meaningful enough.

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

I don’t understand who is going to invest in a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran. The U.S. is not doing so, and why would the Qataris or any other country in the Middle East that was just attacked by Iran invest one penny to support Iran’s reconstruction?

Most of the damage inflicted on Iran was directed to military targets. Why would anyone want to help Iran rebuild its military capabilities?

Even if the funds were limited to humanitarian-related infrastructure, if there is such a thing, money is fungible, and we know the first freed up dollar will go to rebuild Iran’s ballistic and nuclear capabilities.

What am I missing?

I can give up anything but the pursuit and maintenance of genuine relationships.

1 doesn’t explain the continuation of blockade and unprecedented economic pressure. The only thesis that explains everything is 2.

There are only 2 explanations for Trump's puzzling statements:

1. True weakness: Trump admits failure and tries to cut his losses

2. Tactical deception: Trump is preparing the knockout blow, but needs time and the element of surprise

I (choose to) believe the 2nd explanation.

What makes you successful is the skills you don’t know you have.

Your best teachers were the ones giving you opportunities to learn at this level.

There must have at least been two other people with risk-reward/vision-implementation paradigms similar to those of Elon Musk. What made Elon different is just luck. They accepted a 1/3 risk-reward odds. Boy, does it suck for them to see Elon.

At least one of the following must be present for a healthy exchange of advice:

What advice would you give your teenage self?

I’ll go first.

Those who’re toughest/realest with you, love you the most. Being real for someone else has immense cost. Unlikely paid by those who fake to love you.
