Growing old is inevitable. Growing up is optional. Never lose the brightness, energy and spark we admire so much in children. You still have it in you now.

A note to @StevenACohen2 from a diehard who doesn’t pretend to know everything, but is considering giving up her ticket package for the first time since signing up in 2016.

Globalizing the intifada.

[Dave Portnoy @stoolpresidente]

You know what? When there are terrorist attacks in the US by extremists I’d prefer that the same politicians and podcasters who egg them on with non stop inflammatory rhetoric and by endorsing Hamas rallies and who refuse to condemn phrases like “Globalize the intifada” and who blame everything on Jews don’t then try to act surprised or sympathetic when these attacks happen. It’s insulting and you’re not fooling anybody. I’d rather Mamdani be more like his wife who probably already smashed the like button a billion times and threw a party at Gracie Mansion. At least she owns it. Give me the straight forward hatred rather than the hypocrisy.

[Geiger Capital @Geiger_Capital]

This is insane…

Mamdani calls out first, and by name, a "White supremacist" for protesting.

He then leaves out the 2 Muslim men, Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi, who were arrested by NYPD after they yelled "Allahu Akbar!" and threw a homemade bomb into the crowd.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

BREAKING: Jewish Insider reveals that Zohran Mamdani’s wife was mass-liking Instagram posts on October 7th, celebrating the massacre in real time.

This is who they are.

[Daniel Rubenstein @paulrubens]

I did not expect to see the New York Times refer to the October 7 Massacre as an expression of the “Palestinian Cause” – but here we are.

Of course that's your contention. You're a first-time SaaS bear. You just got finished listening to some podcast, Dario on Dwarkesh, probably. Now you think it’s the end of white collar work and seat-based pricing is screwed. You're gonna be convinced of that til tomorrow when you get to “Something Big is Happening”. Then you’ll install ClawdBot on a Mac Mini, vibe code a dashboard on top of a postgres database and say we’re all just a couple ralph loops away from building a Salesforce competitor. That’s gonna last until next week when you discover context graphs, and then you're gonna be talking about how the systems of record will be disintermediated by an agentic layer and reposting OAI marketing graphics.

“Well, as a matter of fact, I won't, because ultimately the application layer is just ….”

The application layer is just business logic on top a CRUD database. You got that from Satya’s appearance on the BG2 pod, December 2024, right? Yeah, I saw that too. Were you gonna plagiarize the whole thing for us? Do you have any thoughts of your own on this matter? Or...is that your thing? You get into the replies of anyone posting a SaaS ticker. You watch some podcast and then pawn it off as your own idea just to impress some VCs and embarrass some anon who’s long SaaS? See the sad thing about a guy like you is in a couple years you're gonna start doing some thinking on your own and you're gonna come up with the fact that there are two certainties in life. One: don't do that. And two: you dropped thirty grand on Mac Minis and LLM API calls to come to the same conclusion you could’ve got for free by following a handful of VC accounts.

[Lee Harris @LeeHarris]

Absolutely love this. Just a regular English lad out to watch the football speaking perfect sense.

He is NOT happy with the Islamists.

What a breath of fresh air.
Spot on.

[Eric Nathan @BarstoolNate]

Fucked up video going around today. More people should speak up. It's not "lib" or "soft" or whatever buzzword you want to use. Being anti-semitic is wrong. It's not a political take. It used to be common sense.

unexpectedly stressful part of starting a family is you gotta take your job like 10x more seriously at the time when you basically least want to

[Camilla Tominey @CamillaTominey]

You should have no place in British politics

[Emily Damari @EmilyDamari1]

I was released from Hamas captivity in January and I am a die hard fan of Maccabi Tel Aviv.
I am shocked to my core with this outrageous decision to ban me, my family and my friends from attending an Aston Villa game in the UK.
Football is a way of bringing people together irrespective of their faith, colour or religion and this disgusting decision does the exact opposite. Shame on you.
I hope you come to your senses and reconsider.
I do wonder what exactly has become of British society, this is like putting a big sign on the outside of a stadium saying “No Jews allowed”
What has become of the UK where blatant antisemitism has become the norm?
What a sad world we are living in.

🚨NEW: Utah Governor delivers powerful message following the assassination of Charlie Kirk:

"If anyone ... celebrated even a little bit at the news of this shooting, I would beg you to look in the mirror and to see if you can find a better angel in there somewhere."

"I don't care what his politics are. I care that he was an American."

[Konstantin Kisin @KonstantinKisin]

I hope I'm wrong.

But tonight feels like some sort of invisible line has been crossed that we didn't even know was there. The last time I felt like this was 9/11 when it was clear, without knowing the how and the what, that the world was about to change forever.

Like the rules of the game had been permanently altered and there was simply no going to back to the innocent, peaceful past.

I didn't feel like this when an attempt was made on President Trump's life. If I had to rationalise why I didn't, I guess it's because several US Presidents have been shot at and even assassinated. Somehow it was within the realms of the possible, no matter how awful.

But to murder a young father simply for doing debates and mobilising young people to vote for a party that represents half of America? This is something else.

Charlie's death is a tragedy for his wife, his children and his family. I don't pray often. I am praying for them tonight.

But I fear his murder will be a tragedy for all of us in ways we will only understand as time unfolds.

I hope I'm wrong.

[Eyal Yakoby @EYakoby]

BREAKING: At the People’s Conference for Palestine in Michigan, a speaker openly calls to murder all Jews.

“Whether they are in Israel, Tel Aviv, in Washington, in Germany, in Europe. They need to be taken out. They need to be neutralized.”

Anyone who knows me knows how often I talk about the danger of cars. Autonomous vehicles are the most obvious and important bet for the next 10-20 years. Let’s make the world a safer place.

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

It seems like there is not enough of a policy response to the fact that, with 57M miles of data, Waymo’s autonomous vehicles experience 85% less serious injuries & 79% less injuries overall than cars with human drivers.

2.4 million are injured & 40k killed in US accidents a year
