If all humans suddenly lost the ability to lie, what industry would collapse first?

@aakashgupta Very interesting, except a coin is not 2.5 cm thick. That’s almost an inch. From Grok: • A typical coin (U.S. dime, quarter, euro coin, etc.) is only about 1–2 mm thick (0.1–0.2 cm), not 2.5 cm.

That water clarity is an engineering decision, and the math behind it is wilder than the video. Roman aqueducts ran on gravity alone. No pumps, no pressure systems. Engineers carved channels with a gradient so shallow it borders on absurd. The Pont du Gard in southern France drops 2.5 centimeters over 275 meters. That's roughly the thickness of a coin over the length of three football fields. They surveyed that accuracy with plumb lines and wooden leveling instruments. The clarity you're seeing is a direct product of flow velocity. Too steep and the water erodes the channel walls, picks up sediment, turns brown. Too flat and it stagnates. Roman engineers targeted a slope of about 20 centimeters per kilometer, which kept the water moving fast enough to stay fresh but slow enough to stay clear. Before the water reached the city, it passed through multi-chamber settling tanks where velocity dropped near zero. Suspended particles sank. Clean water flowed out the top into the next chamber. Repeat three or four times. Pliny specified the minimum slope in writing. Vitruvius published the exact mortar ratio for hydraulic cement: one part lime to two parts volcanic ash for underwater work. The pozzolana from Pozzuoli reacted with water to form a calcium-aluminum-silicate compound that actually gets stronger the longer it sits submerged. Modern concrete degrades in water. Roman concrete bonds with it. Scale the whole system and it gets harder to process. Eleven aqueducts fed Rome at its peak. Combined output: roughly 1 million cubic meters of water per day. That works out to about 250 gallons per person for a city of one million. Modern New York delivers about 125 gallons per person per day. Ancient Rome had access to double the per capita water supply of the largest city in the United States, running entirely on slope and stone. The Trevi Fountain in Rome is still fed by one of them. Two thousand years, same source, same gravity, same water.

@cantonmeow @dannycheng2022 @sheslee That was a great podcast. Would love to hear from all of you in the future.

Danny @dannycheng2022 and myself were sitting at his clubhouse, and we got a hold of what we think is a legendary fundamental investor and trader @sheslee. We went through how she was one of the early investors in $TSLA, how she sold near the top and migrated heavily into $PLTR in the single digits, as well as recent successes with $OSCR and $BB and more! I wished we could keep going, but @dannycheng2022 and I have to go destroy the buffet right now. We hope to have a part 2 with @sheslee to discuss what she think could be the next $TSLA and $PLTR soon!

U.S. Forest Service law enforcement is now asking for the public’s help identifying a group of Indian nationals seen defacing Cathedral Rock in Sedona, Arizona, a sacred Native American site, with furious Americans demanding their immediate deportation.

@AIDRIVR That is a great idea!

FSD parking idea when you select “Park” option for the destination, a screen should appear that lets you drag a pin to the general area of the parking lot where you want the car to park this would save me so many interventions

@StockOptionCole Well said. Would like to see where he’s at in 10 years.

I'm not a fan of Leopold. Infact I'm not a fan of anymore or put my attention on any one else. I just do my own thing leading myself. Distracting yourself chasing other peoples success is why they're more successful than you.

@realEstateTrent That is sad

I’m still on Eastern time, so I woke up at 3:30 a.m. today in Vegas and headed down to grab coffee in the hotel lobby. People sitting alone at tables with just them and the dealer, gambling their lives away in the early hours of a random Tuesday. I don’t know why it bothered me so much, but I’ve been thinking about it all day. I hope they find help.

@raines1220 Same thing is happening to me. Hopefully it will get fixed soon.

Since v14.3, parking has regressed significantly for me because FSD keeps overriding my manual pin at home and work. It tries to “predict” a better parking spot and moves the P icon to random places. This might work for commercial lots like Walmart or Whole Foods, but it is terrible for my designated parking spot and my company’s parking garage entrance. Tesla, please don’t override manually saved pins. If I saved it manually, it is GOLDEN.

$NOK Nokia is still one of the most underlooked AI stocks out there - please read to understand this company better The Multiple Ways Nokia Gets Paid 1. Data Center Interconnect (happening now) (most recently 49% YoY growth) Every time Google or Microsoft builds a new AI cluster, they need fiber optic systems connecting those data centers to each other. Nokia sells the optical transport equipment — cables, transponders, pluggables. This is the 49% AI & Cloud growth you’re seeing right now in their numbers. Real revenue, today. 2. Inside the Data Center (early but growing) Nokia has signed data center switching deals with Microsoft and Apple, and was selected by CoreSite to provide routing upgrades across their US data center footprint. So they’re not just connecting data centers to each other — they’re also selling the switches and routers that manage traffic inside the building. 3. AI-RAN / Cell Towers (future) HUGE potential The GPU-in-tower story with NVIDIA. Still in trials, probably 2028+ at real revenue scale. But the optionality is there. 4. Defense and National Security (quietly growing) Nokia has a Federal Solutions division and sells defense networking and tactical communications systems, most recently Anduril and Lockheed Martin. As Leopold’s “Project” thesis plays out and governments pour money into AI-secured infrastructure, Nokia sits right in that flow. 5. Sovereign AI Networks (emerging) Worldwide sovereign cloud spending is forecast to hit $80 billion in 2026, up 35% from 2025. Governments don’t want their AI data running through American or Chinese infrastructure — they want their own. Nokia is pitching itself as the trusted Western provider to build those national networks. 6. 5G and 6G Densification (ongoing) Separate from AI-RAN, carriers are still spending on upgrading their networks. Nokia’s mobile business is steadier than people give it credit for.

@actuallyajoke Yes 👍

Tesla Nav needs to adopt this feature yesterday

@DirtyTesLa 😂haha!

Hey Tesla, a little earlier I disengaged and then accidentally pressed navigation but meant to press preference, my bad. Please recategorize that one.

@edgecase411 😂 me too!

We are in the LAP. Late Access Program

@MilMileBattery @wholemars 😂

DiCaprio would no longer date the unsupervised Robotaxi network $TSLA

@StockSavvyShay @VanquishTrader How about an EV? I charge my Tesla at home using my solar panels. It’s liberating

@VanquishTrader I couldn’t believe I was paying over $6 a gallon this weekend... absolutely disgusting.

The average U.S. gas price has risen to $4.18 per gallon, its highest level since August 22. U.S. oil prices are now trading near $100 per barrel adding fresh pressure to consumers and inflation expectations.

@Gemini what is going on with the Gemini app. I’m unable to make a payment. When will this be resolved?

@congressdj @elonmusk Same. Switched from Tesla to Lemonade

Dumping Tesla insurance after 3 months. It has increased 48% in that time, based on <30 minutes of manual driving (mostly map-related disengagements) in 3000 miles. It now exceeds GEICO (which we left) even with 16 year old son. So disappointed. @elonmusk you gotta fix this, man.

I did something similar but on a smaller scale in Phoenix, Arizona. 45 panels 52 kW of battery and two inverters, should be enough to power my house and two Tesla most of the year except for the summer for three months or so when he gets extremely hot. during the summer I expect to still be able to power 80 to 90% of my need from Solar
