Brevity is the soul of wit

In 24 years of watching 9/11 memorials and the reading of the names of the dead, I have never heard applause.

This morning the crowd did — because one brave widow, @TerrySStrada, looked at the leaders in front of her and refused to let the day pass in silence.
She called out Saudi Arabia’s role, the broken promises, and a string of administrations that protected the Kingdom instead of helping to deliver justice for the families.

A stunning, must-watch minute. Stand with the families.

Steve Kerr says Roger Federer taught his Warriors team the secret to sustained success wasn’t outworking everyone, it was building a life around your craft you never want to escape from

“I’ll tell you a great story about Roger Federer. We were playing in China with the Warriors in 2017. Roger was in Shanghai for the Masters tournament, so we invited him to come speak to the team.”

“Draymond Green asked him, ‘How do you sustain success? How have you managed to win majors 20 years after you first won one?’ Everyone was expecting him to say, ‘I work harder than everybody,’ the will, all the clichés.”

“Roger Federer says, ‘I get up every morning and I make breakfast for my kids. Then I take them to school and drop them off. Then I go practice tennis for about two hours, and I’ve figured out a really good routine where I don’t destroy my body, but I can get all the work in I need.”

“‘Then I go have lunch with my wife. In the evening, we cook dinner together. The kids are all home from school. We ask them about school. There’s so much joy in the house. We put them to bed, and then I put my head on the pillow and go, “Man, that was just a great day.” And I’ve been doing that for 20 years.’”

“And it was like, yes. That’s it. That’s the formula. That’s what leads to sustained success. He loves tennis. He loves his family. He loves life. It’s not outworking everybody and banging your head against the wall, ‘I’m going to be better than everybody.’ It’s allowing your natural talent to shine through with a work ethic, with a great family life, with perspective, with peace, with mindfulness.”

“It’s perspective. It’s joy. It’s passion. It’s mindfulness. It’s an awareness that we are truly lucky. To get the most out of ourselves, it’s our daily rituals and experiences and love and joy.”

@Mark_IKN You can add Magino to that list as well. Luckily bailed out by Alamos.

"I just don't like sports that much but because I'm objecting to politics it feels like I actually love sports more than you, and that's an insane double standard..." – @PabloTorre on Phil Jackson saying he stopped watching the NBA after seeing slogans in The Bubble.

It’s a beautiful thing: every player in @MLB today wears #42 in honour of #JackieRobinson who broke the colour barrier on this date in 1947. (One of my kids has “Robinson” as a middle name to honour Jackie as well). #Jackie42 #JackieRobinsonDay

"It’s easy to see how a whisper network of 100s of CEOs — all convinced they have exceptional vision, all working themselves into a panic — could spiral out of control. How these VCs operate = groupthink on a staggeringly consequential scale."

@MrHurt2u @FourTheCup @JohanVi1214859 @luoxiaxia @modest_engineer @unusual_whales @DavidSacks Fair enough but basic risk management would suggest not to buy long dated treasuries in a rising rate environment. We can split hairs but it all boils down to terrible risk management practices.

[Jeremy @jbeadow]

@FourTheCup @JohanVi1214859 @luoxiaxia @modest_engineer @unusual_whales @DavidSacks It's called an interest rate hedge. Banks with good risk management use derivatives.

@CaliforniaFirst @nytimes It's a bailout. You clearly don't understand how banking works.

[Jeremy @jbeadow]

@EpiViro @Forbes Such a flawed business strategy. Especially in banking to be so exposed to a single industry...also felt like a self induced bank run to announce they were raising capital and had sold fixed income instruments substantially below value

@thecryptojourno @GRDecter Not about the cost. It's the optics.

I think somebody is going to make a lot of money from it, and they are probably big donors to the Ontario PC Party. Maybe it got thrown in with the Greenbelt as a sweetener.

I'm not an expert on WWII. Were people in 1943 still discussing what annexed lands Hitler would get to keep as part of a "peace settlement"?
