Built Different

This man's credentials will leave you speechless. 7th degree black belt. World's fastest gun disarm. Former Marine. All forged from being forced to kill at age 7. The explosive secret to weaponizing your worst trauma into unstoppable strength:

Embedded AI (agentic operations, agentic process automation, whatever we're calling it this month) is basically business process automation with better brains. For decades, enterprises ran critical repeatable processes on rules engines and RPA. Take a process that has to run itself reliably and make it work. Now we call it 'agentic.' New name, same ambition. The difference is real capability though. Old BPA could follow rules. Embedded AI can reason through exceptions, learn from past runs, pull meaning out of unstructured data. Not just a rebrand. But the hard problems are the same ones BPA teams were solving 15 years ago. Governance, observability, human-in-the-loop checkpoints, managing failures at scale. We just have to solve them again with systems that are way more powerful and way less predictable. The teams shipping fastest right now are usually the ones who learned from that era. They don't treat governance as an afterthought because they already got burned once. I keep saying the agentic industry renames the same things over and over. This is one of those cases, but at least this time the capability underneath actually justifies the new name.

Mining will create more millionaires than AI over the next decade. Yet everyone is chasing chips and software. Here's why the real money is in what powers all of it: The world is obsessed with AI. Every portfolio, every headline, every allocation decision points in the same direction. But here's what most investors are missing. AI runs on infrastructure. Infrastructure runs on metals. Copper, nickel, palladium, platinum. The physical materials that make electrification, data centres, and energy grids possible. Supply is constrained. From discovery to production, the average mine takes around 18 years. And demand is growing faster than at any point in the last 30 years. This is the setup for a commodity supercycle. And historically, supercycles are where generational wealth gets built in the resource sector. Power Metallic sits at the centre of this thesis. A zoned polymetallic system with copper, nickel, and PGEs. Only a handful of comparable systems exist on the planet. Well funded with C$50 million raised and 100,000 metres of drilling through 2026. While everyone fights over the next AI stock, the real asymmetric opportunity might be sitting underground in Quebec. $PNPN $PNPNF

Eva Longoria is 51 and still has the red-carpet physique she's had for 20 years. Before she was an actress, she was a fitness trainer with a degree in kinesiology. Here are her 7 rules for staying in shape:

One company processes about a third of all US medical records. In 2024, hackers got into it through a single server. That server was missing one basic security setting. The mistake cost over $2 billion and exposed 190 million Americans:

A Western made in chaos became one of the most quoted films of its generation. A careful 3-hour epic, built to honor the same man's whole life, arrived 6 months later and faded from memory. Two films, one lawman, the same 30 seconds at the O.K. Corral.

The new RobotLAB website is live. America's largest robotics integrator, now in one place: every robot, every use case, every industry it already works in. Here is what we built:

In 2012, Best Buy was supposed to be the next retailer Amazon would kill. So its new CEO spent his first week on the shop floor, in a "CEO in training" badge. 7 years later, the stock had more than tripled. Here's what he did instead of cutting:

Jason Momoa is 46 and still built like Aquaman. From Game of Thrones to Dune, he's been Hollywood's go-to giant for 15 years. Here's how he keeps the physique:

Everyone thinks we're running out of copper and nickel. We're not. Remember when the world was sure we were running out of oil? We weren't. We'd just run out of the technology to find it efficiently. Critical minerals are in the same place right now. The earth has plenty. What's constrained is our ability to find it, permit it, and bring it to market fast enough. Here's the twist: AI is actually solving its own supply problem. Real breakthroughs in mineral exploration and processing. Recycling is scaling. Copper and nickel can both be recycled. This isn't "finite resource, permanent crisis." It's massive demand hitting a temporary supply bottleneck. The bottleneck isn't geology. It's capital, timing, and willingness to fund exploration. That's the trade. Not scarcity panic. Timing arbitrage. Full conversation: youtube.com/watch?v=m2mb7S… $PNPN $PNPNF

In the 1990s, one company owned the web browser. Almost everyone used it. Then its own engineers made a single decision that handed the market to Microsoft. They didn't get outcoded. They did it to themselves. Here's the mistake every software team should study:

The day he was born, a nurse told his mother she did not have to take him home. Her answer set the course of his life. He grew up to become a Paralympic medallist and world champion. Today Don Elgin runs our events at Kismet. Here's his story:

Two founders started a company in 2001 and never took a dollar of venture capital. 20 years later, they sold it for about $12 billion. No funding rounds. No board. No investors to answer to. Here's how they did it:

Idris Elba is 53. At 45, he won a professional kickboxing match by knockout. He still trains to last 5 rounds in the ring. Here's how he stays fight-ready:

In 2023, two casino giants were hacked by the same crew days apart. One paid the ransom. One refused. The attack didn't start with code. It started with a phone call. Here's what each choice actually cost:

A captain so cruel his own crew sets him adrift in an open boat. A captain so trusted his men follow him to the far side of the world. Two films about command at sea, and the thin line between discipline and cruelty.

Claude Fable vs Claude Opus 4.8 (side by side) Same prompt, but big delta in output + token use + time spent to getting there. See for yourself + "spend the day as the president" Imo Fable for high-quality one shots vs Opus for highly-specified tasks/interactive sessions Fable vs Opus > Time: 27 min vs 5 min > Tokens: 134k vs 64k > Cost: ~$6.70 vs ~$1.60 > LOC: 1.5k vs 990 > Errors: 0 vs 0 > Self-QA: Fable playtested its own game in a headless browser. Opus caught + fixed its own crash bug.

In 2006, Ford was in the worst crisis of its history. It lost $12.7 billion that year, more than in any year before. The board brought in an outsider from Boeing to save it. His first move was not a new car. It was something most CEOs would never do.

I've appeared before the Texas Supreme Court 14 times. I've represented hundreds of institutional property owners across Texas - school districts, hospital systems, universities, apartment communities, commercial real estate. If there is one thing I have learned in all of that work, it is that the most expensive problems are the ones nobody thought to ask about. If I could sit across from every school superintendent, hospital CEO, and university facilities director in the state and give them three things to investigate before accepting their next construction project, these would be the three:

A hobo votes 37 times before lunch and rides the fraud all the way to governor. A loyal lieutenant takes a beating that nearly kills him to shield a boss he no longer trusts. Two films built on one actor, Brian Donlevy, and the price of a single honest man.
