No one saw it coming in January. Everyone saw it coming the week that it was starting, which is my point. It’s really easy to tell when the big players start taking risk off. These people are also tracking senators and congress people’s pos

They’re making money up and down. For example, SPY is likely done climbing for a while. Maybe it will squeeze up to ~4160, but it’s either going to be flat or aggressively down in the coming days. Thursday/Friday was a very clear exit

While you’re right about the majority, there are pockets of young people partaking in sophisticated strategies, and doing quite well. The people in the discord server that I belong to are all using stops to max their downside and get out qu

Good luck extricating it from your life. There’s too much utility. I’ve even come back around to Twitter after being off for 5 years. Tremendous value in having a curated list there.

If you haven’t, you should watch some of the first hand videos of the autonomous zone and compare them to the videos of the Capitol.

After a season or 2 — if it’s a hit — I bet it becomes pretty easy to negotiate ownership of items into your contract, since they can’t do the show without you anymore and it’s a relatively small price to pay. See Sex and the City wardrobe.

There’s an interesting question there about when this form of advertising becomes obsolete. Uber is in a very different position than many other companies. Anyone who browses the internet with regularity is already aware of their existence

That makes sense, as it’s true of many different varieties of therapy. During certification, the aspiring therapists are also required to undergo their own therapy.

Dell is Austin or more accurately now, Round Rock — pretty sure he was a Texas student.

This is the magic of dark European clubs that ban phones and are designed around hiding the identities of their inhabitants, versus bright American clubs designed to see and be seen. Thrashing about incoherently is just a sign that you’ve l

You clearly believe the dollar is worth less, and is likely to be devalued further, but aren’t willing to tie that to the higher stock market prices?

I think this has more to do with our culture making everything about the individual. You can’t name bands anymore, because explosive popularity is the realm of the individual artist. Even massive individual artists, disappear into relative

Until the kids leave the house. Then the parents overtake their no child counterparts like crazy. I’d also be curious to see this broken out by economic situation. I’d wager parents who don’t feel financially burdened by children score far

They’re about as liberal as places get, yes. I currently live in SF, spent 5 years in Utah, and my entire childhood in Texas. I know several of the places you mentioned quite well. Mormons are excellent people. I sincerely appreciate how ab

I picked up a Fuji last Christmas, and it’s one of the best purchases I’ve made in the last decade. Their X-line takes incredible pictures, and is so approachable. If anyone has been considering more serious photography, or is having a chil

Provo is full of overly polite Mormon families and BYU. They chose cartoonish examples of polite conservative locales to make their point. There are plenty of conservative places that would be upset to see Harris / Biden attire. Look n

I actually dislike the rubber tips. The original AirPods fit my ear so well that I can shake my head without them coming loose, and comfortable to the point that I literally forget they’re there. If they had better battery life, they’d be t

If you own any amount of Salesforce licenses, you can request a Salesforce Innovation Center (SIC) meeting, and ask them to teach you how they do it. They won’t hesitate to pull in a VP who has been doing it for a decade and they’ll open th

Not enough people realize that these waves are almost completely regionally isolated, with a bit of spillover everywhere. Wave 1: NY + NJ (some other northeast) Wave 2: Florida + Texas + Arizona (most of south) Wave 3: Midwest You can even

The difference is in the transparency and purpose of the metrics. Salesforce’s entire purpose is to measure and publicize performance metrics across the business, down to the individual. In Sales, this means meetings, calls, deals, etc. In

You’d be surprised by how much can be achieved with no code tools on SFDC. The biggest problem Salesforce has is that most customers are barely scratching the surface — or worse, still using the classic version that’s 10 years outdated. I’v

I finished OMSCS in April. I was surprised to find that I just oscillated between trying to start the 10 different projects that had been waiting for me to finish, and doing absolutely nothing because I finally didn’t have to. I ended up go

If a delivery driver gets a series of 1-star reviews, you can bet they’re getting kicked off the platform. + DoorDash actually does refund quite frequently for food issues.

Yeah, this is a popular saying, but couldn’t be further from the truth for the most successful people. Generally, they begin with an end in mind. It’s a lot easier to get where you’re going if you know where that is. Or, as the Cheshire Cat
