@banteg Dark horse rowing on YouTube is a great resource. Spend some time learning the correct form and to use the force curve.

bought this thing, send your advice

@SnazzyLabs You can just use the app on any smart tv right?

Finally decided to pick one up so I can watch the season finale of Slow Horses on the big screen.

I appreciate the sentiment and the effort but 1. Crime is still rampant and unacceptable mostly everywhere 2. Most schools suck balls making any districts with acceptable school having 2x housing cost 3. School lunches are mostly corn dogs and other ultra processed cheap crap

heartbroken for @GmNaroditsky this is so sad

@dflieb "Hey Siri, text Jess and tell her I'm on my way". "texting jessica", message "and tell her I'm on my way". "send?". it's so bad it's comical :\

“Hey Siri, where’s Jenna?” “9 minutes ago, Jenna was at…San Francisco”. Thanks Siri. Does anyone at big tech companies even use their own products anymore? Have all the craftspeople left? Or have they lost their will at the hands of the bureaucracy? So many examples in basically every product.

@TiffanyxFong Dumbest shoots ICE facility in anti ice shooting, kills 2 detainees 😭 can’t make this shit up

I was recently diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis 😬 Thanks to modern medicine, my prognosis is a normal life 🙏 Yea science! Let's keep accelerating 🚀

@Twolfrecovery Same in Palo Alto. Sanford mall is popping like crazy

Spent the afternoon at Valley Fair mall in San Jose. It was absolutely packed. And it made me kinda mad at San Francisco. It's not retail patterns that killed Westfield mall on Market St. It was the homeless, drugs, and theft that did. So, to anyone who said otherwise, 🖕

@gandamu_ml @icanvardar He’s still trying to figure it out himself

@SnazzyLabs Imagine driving a Tesla and thinking you are cooler than a mom in a minivan

@chamath Employees prob didn’t sell anything because there’s almost always a 6month lock

This was what I was hoping to fix with SPACs. You may not like SPAC founder promotes or other forms of value transfer to intermediaries but you can never claim it wasn't disclosed. The Circle IPO, and ALL traditional IPOS, are the opposite. Value is transferred to randoms and it makes no sense. In order to get the IPO off, the team at Circle had to sell 14.4M shares at the IPO price of $31 for total proceeds of $446M. These shares were "bought" by the IPO bank and then sold to their best clients. Those 14.4M shares are now worth $3.456B. Meaning the employees that sold these shares lost out on $3B in the past 15 days. To be clear, this method of value transfer doesn't happen via a direct listing or SPAC - the benefits in SPACs and DLs are disclosed very explicitly up front. They can be negotiated, minimized etc to the benefit of selling shareholders and buying shareholders. Only in a traditional IPO do banks use opacity like this. And the media acts along by writing headlines to tell you how a "first day pop" is a good sign. It's not. It means the deal was mispriced and banks were able to reward their best customers completely unrelated to the company in question with free stock. In this case, it was a $3B gift from the employees and investors of Circle to people they don't know, will never know and have nothing to do with their journey.

@SnazzyLabs link to where to buy?

Our frame for our Frame Pro finally came in and it looks awesome! Still a bad TV? Definitely. But, look at it!!!

@atrupar I'm not a republican or anything, but your quote is misleading. He made the build in america comment after the conversation unrelated to bananas. For bananas he clearly said as we negociation with countries, tarrifs are going to 0. He did not say to build bananas in america.

DEAN: What's the tariff on bananas? LUTNICK: Generally 10% DEAN: Walmart has already increased the cost of bananas by 8% LUTNICK: If you build in America, there is no tariff DEAN: We cannot build bananas in America

@miz @IlyaAbyzov This picture is 13/10

At Uber, I once walked past a 22 year-old designer making something beautiful on an Apple cinema display. Then I got in an Uber downstairs and the driver was a woman in her 60s who had jerry-rigged a magnifying glass to the her phone so she could see the UI in our driver app.

@JeffChavez @tim_cook 6500sqft dad

I think what I admire most is Warren Buffett still lives in the same modest home in Omaha, Nebraska, that he bought in 1958 for $31,500. The house, now worth around $1.4 million, has five bedrooms and is about 6,570 square feet. Despite his wealth, Buffett has chosen to stay there, emphasizing simplicity over extravagance.

@hthieblot we just sold a condo bought in 2014 for the same price lol

Sold my downtown SF condo after 14 years... and lost money in real terms. Bought at $1.33M in Dec 2010 (the bottom of the financial crisis). Sold for $1.6M below inflation and still owe taxes on the "gain." Downtown SF is truly cooked.
