Ive been repeating affirmations on my whiteboard since this went viral a few weeks ago

The first 3 lines feel silly
After 10 you feel something shift
At 50 you realize your identity is a habit and very little of you is “you”

Apple is upgrading customers to the new M6 Mac Mini for free.

Email from Apple:

"Thank you for your recent Mac order. We know you're looking forward to receiving your purchase.
As you may know, Apple recently announced the new Mac mini. Since your order has yet to ship, we automatically upgraded you to the new Mac mini at no additional cost."

Peter Thiel on why the best startups sound boring at first:

"Healthcare IT, education software — somewhat overrated. SaaS software, pretty badly overrated. If you hear the words 'big data,' 'cloud computing,' you need to run away as fast as you possibly can. You need to just think fraud and run away. These buzzwords, they're a tell — like in poker — that the company's bluffing, and that it's undifferentiated, because we've heard the buzzwords before.

Conversely, the things that are underrated are the ones where there are no buzzwords, which don't actually fit into any pre-existing categories. Google would have been described as a search engine in 1998 — people would have said, why do we need another search engine, we already have 20. If you described Facebook as a social network circa 2004, that's a misleading categorization. People aren't interested in networking in the abstract; they're interested in real identity. Real identity was the key innovation Facebook had."

Peter Thiel on why the world of atoms has been stagnant for 50 years while the world of bits raced ahead

"It's generally been stagnant in the world of atoms, not the world of bits, for something like 50 years. Maybe we ran out of ideas, maybe we're too risk-averse, maybe we're scared about how apocalyptic some of the science and tech are. But it's slowed down since the 1970s"

"Anything broken not because of the science or tech is a great opportunity. It doesn't require a dozen miracles in tech breakthroughs. Tunneling costs a billion dollars a mile in Manhattan, ten times as much as Paris, which we don't think of as exactly capitalist efficiency"

"There's some non-tech reason we're not even at the Paris level, so you have to figure out what that political blocker is and how to overcome it"

"It's not about trying, it's about output. You get credit for some kind of Marxist labor theory of value, you're trying hard. But we're not Marxists here. We're not measuring input, we're measuring where you can actually get output"

.@PalmerLuckey says Russia and China don’t value life as much as the US:

“We assume people value the same things we do. China does not value life as highly.”

“We see it in Russia throwing away lives…. If the US were losing 7,000 men/week, it would be the political end of any politician who supported it for even one week. Instead, we’ve seen his approval go up.”

Palantir CEO Alex Karp:

“In the West, we actually care when humans die.”

“China or Russia— Russia’s lost 700,000 people in Ukraine. They don’t care.”

“How do we make the battlefield more like ours? We don’t care if we lose a piece of steel, we do if we lose a human.”

If you’re a man and you’re unhappy with how things are going in your life, try considering the possibility that you were socialized to act like a woman, stop doing that, and then see how the world responds to you

[Incentivising @incentivising]

Game theory explains why improving yourself rarely fixes your outcomes. People keep treating their own skills and discipline as a dominant variable because it's the one they can consciously control. They end up running never-ending optimizations but leave the whole structure around them untouched. Suddenly, they are the shiniest object in the room, but it gets them nowhere. That's because a diamond in the mud is still part of the mud. Cleaning it and putting it back where you found it changes absolutely nothing. Hence, you must change the structure. Swipe the entire room clean; toss out the junk. Ask yourself which environment converts what you already have into a return and what it would cost to move there. Don't spend a decade improving yourself while covered in filth. The structure around you either works for you or against you. There is no middle ground.
