Post 45 mile ride. My hot take of the day.

Lesson 1:

It takes energy to be angry, and the wind doesn’t care how mad I get at it. Likewise, life doesn’t care too much how angry I get at it.

@ericweinstein @grok What a read this thread was. Understood about 70%, but it does seam clear that all new study of physics has halted since 1973… is this the case around the world, or just the US, world leading countries?

@CantinaBand22 @Mericamemed You don’t exercise do you… 😏

@tferriss 32 - I s the pope catholic? Yea!

@WallStreetApes Do it anyway :)

[Seth Hill @SethTHill]

100% the truth!

“No one voted for Elon Musk.” (They did however vote for Donald Trump who promised repeatedly to have Elon Musk root out wasteful spending in our government.)

This has the be the most beautiful thread on X. Imagine going through this entire thread after just a month?! Billions… so awesome.

@VivekGRamaswamy Couldn’t agree more.

100% - trash in = trash out.

The reason top tech companies often hire foreign-born & first-generation engineers over “native” Americans isn’t because of an innate American IQ deficit (a lazy & wrong explanation). A key part of it comes down to the c-word: culture. Tough questions demand tough answers & if we’re really serious about fixing the problem, we have to confront the TRUTH:

Our American culture has venerated mediocrity over excellence for way too long (at least since the 90s and likely longer). That doesn’t start in college, it starts YOUNG.

A culture that celebrates the prom queen over the math olympiad champ, or the jock over the valedictorian, will not produce the best engineers.

A culture that venerates Cory from “Boy Meets World,” or Zach & Slater over Screech in “Saved by the Bell,” or ‘Stefan’ over Steve Urkel in “Family Matters,” will not produce the best engineers.

(Fact: I know *multiple* sets of immigrant parents in the 90s who actively limited how much their kids could watch those TV shows precisely because they promoted mediocrity…and their kids went on to become wildly successful STEM graduates).

More movies like Whiplash, fewer reruns of “Friends.” More math tutoring, fewer sleepovers. More weekend science competitions, fewer Saturday morning cartoons. More books, less TV. More creating, less “chillin.” More extracurriculars, less “hanging out at the mall.”

Most normal American parents look skeptically at “those kinds of parents.” More normal American kids view such “those kinds of kids” with scorn. If you grow up aspiring to normalcy, normalcy is what you will achieve.

Now close your eyes & visualize which families you knew in the 90s (or even now) who raise their kids according to one model versus the other. Be brutally honest.

“Normalcy” doesn’t cut it in a hyper-competitive global market for technical talent. And if we pretend like it does, we’ll have our asses handed to us by China.

This can be our Sputnik moment. We’ve awaken from slumber before & we can do it again. Trump’s election hopefully marks the beginning of a new golden era in America, but only if our culture fully wakes up. A culture that once again prioritizes achievement over normalcy; excellence over mediocrity; nerdiness over conformity; hard work over laziness.

That’s the work we have cut out for us, rather than wallowing in victimhood & just wishing (or legislating) alternative hiring practices into existence. I’m confident we can do it. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

@jk_rowling So sick that we have allowed this.

Absolutely in our face.

If you only have 3 minutes to watch Joe Rogan’s podcast today, this is the 3 minutes you need to see.

Jordan Peterson just described “gender-affirming care” in a way no one else would dare.

“I've never seen anything worse than what's happening right now. And that includes the sorts of things that were done in the camps in Germany. At least the goddamn Naz*s admitted what they did was wrong. They tried to hide it. We trumpet it as a moral virtue.”

“These surgical procedures are so brutal and so experimental that they're—I'm going to say it again—they're worse than what the Mengele types did in the concentration camps in the thirties and forties. And that's a pretty goddamn low bar.”
