on my flight to san francisco i sat next to a 78 year old man.
travelling alone. no wife, no children. flying out for a parkinson's research test.
he told me his wife passed away last year. but before she died, someone else had volunteered for the research program. that person's contribution led to a treatment that gave him five extra years with his wife.
five years he wasn't supposed to have.
now he was doing the same thing. giving himself to the research so someone else might get five more years too.
he said it like it was obvious. like there was no other option.
i've been thinking about that conversation since i landed.
what it looks like to give yourself fully to something knowing you'll never see the result.
@Termi_chan @samisosa1234 Agreed ; I hold it too as a sizable position ; concerned with 1) TN elections not in their favor now ; 2) price too low for equity dilution 3) high bitumen prices reducing their margin
All 3 are structural problems not helping them get re-rated
@Termi_chan @samisosa1234 Thesis for AVP on turnaround? With the low price, they are not willing to sell equity and are therefore paying higher interest on debt repayments, which will keep happening if the price does not increase >150
The 2-4 hours you spend scrolling each day (or 730-1460 hours each year) is more than enough time to write a book, build a business, or get in shape. In the moment, it seems like nothing. That's why it's so dangerous. Your time disappears without you being conscious of it.
say it with me now. experts are fake, smart generalists rule the world, everything is designed by people no smarter than you, and courage is in shorter supply than genius

You came, tried to fix, but instead destroyed the road and went back
This is near Grand Banquet Hall - Chembur / Govandi
The broken road just starts at the right turn of a busy road, which makes it highly prone to accident
Please provide a solution and fix

Top 10 feelings:
-fresh bed sheets
-when a hot girl’s dog immediately loves you
-sending a text in your group chat and getting six ‘Haha’ reacts
-lifting weights in the Sun blasting white girl pop throwbacks
-Coke Zero at 2PM
-waking up sober on a Saturday
-picking up your best friend from the airport
-partying with the Seniors when you were a Sophomore
-sleeping with a girl you’d be pumped to show off to your cool Uncle (your cool Uncle = the one you can tell anything to judgment-free)
-Harry Potter marathon while it’s snowing
-December 26th-30th
-recognizing a moment while you’re in it
-realizing you’re living a phase of your life you already know you’re gonna wanna re-live one day (this makes you 10% sad 90% wildly grateful to be alive)
@sriramnatraj@dineshpaii Hi, this is super cool for fetching PDFs from Screener.
Trying the same on Claude, but it's sub-optimal, missing stuff. Can you tell me what is this platform that you're running on - and what LLM is it running on - or if there is any thing I may be missing
