"I'm too tired to exercise" Dude, you need to exercise to stop feeling tired.

@cptdankkk Couldn't agree more. Live below your means.

Kevin O'Leary says most people waste $15,000 a year on stupid stuff like $5 coffees "Stop buying coffee for five dollars and fifty cents" "You go to work and you spend $15 bucks on a sandwich, what are you an idiot. It costs you 99 cents to make a sandwich at home and bring it with you" "Bring your own water, your own drink or your own coffee mug. You start to add that up every day it's a ton of money" "Most people starting on their job making their first $60,000 piss away about $15,000 a year"

@JeffBezos @elonmusk Love this idea

Thank you. The important part is zeroing out taxes on the bottom half. Best way to put money in someone’s pocket is to not take it out in the first place. Bottom half is only 3% of total tax revenue. But it’s very meaningful to that person. Zero it out.

Incredibly fascinating 🤩

@dinkin_flickaa @nikitabier Love this, exactly what we needed 😊🤝

The Grok button on posts will now show a tooltip when tapping it and give you some options

Gemini Omni is a major leap in world understanding & multimodal editing! It can take photos, video & audio and build entirely new scenes. Over time it’ll be able to handle any input & any output - starting w/ video You can even give it your own videos & iterate on your ideas:

@bryan_johnson @_katetolo I've been expecting this step for over 1 year. Happy to see it happen 😊🤝

We now have a female Bryan Johnson. It’s Kate Tolo. She will become the most measured female in history. +$2 million of spend per year + Developing a female-specific protocol + Sharing everything for free To start, she will spend 3 months mapping her baseline. Men, in contrast, can get their baseline done in 1 or 2 weeks. + 3 months for baseline measurement + across 4 time points per cycle + doing the same thing every day + a dedicated full-time medical team For context on the extensiveness of measurement, during the past 5 years, we’ve collected 1.5 billion data points on my body. I suspect Kate will exceed that given technology has improved since I started. The goal is to create a repeatable waveform of hundreds of life-critical biomarkers. Once the baseline is acquired, she will begin interventions. We will try to answer practically useful questions and share all of the data + learnings for free. Can fertility be improved? + Should women cold plunge? + Can PMS symptoms be alleviated? + What should a female sauna protocol be? + Should dosage change throughout the month? + What keeps a cycle regular? + Does the body need more iron, magnesium, or protein at specific phases? + Should women fast? + Should recovery protocol change by phase? + What's the earliest detectable signal of perimenopause? + Can perimenopause be slowed? + How is cognitive load & mood affected? + Does stress impact men and women the same? Kate has suspected endometriosis. 10% of all women do. We will try to tackle this too. I am excited for all of the surprising things we will hopefully uncover. Unlike me, Kate does not have the innate desire to wake up at 4:30am and do six hours of longevity therapies. She’s the cofounder of Blueprint, building in the trenches with me since day one. She understands the game and how hard it is. In many ways, this is a sacrifice for her. She is a creative person, going from a life of freedom and spontaneity to a rigid protocol. Traditionally, RCTs have been viewed as the gold standard. But RCTs have underserved women. The FDA banned women from clinical trials for 16 years (1977 to 1993), and most "medicine for women" is still medicine tested in men. Demanding RCT-only evidence for women's health is demanding evidence that doesn't exist. There is not enough practical scientific literature for women to reference only RCTs. It leaves half the population without a path to know what to do. N=1 medicine is gaining ground and picking up where RCTs specifically fail. Individual science experiments give us signals that answer what to do on a day-to-day basis. This is even more important for women. If you’re new to Kate and my world, I want you to understand that we have your back. Our intentions are to be a sturdy, reliable force in your life. To care for your best interest as we’d care for our own. We want what’s best for you and our loyalty is to your existence. It’s pretty cool to be living in a time when we may be the first generation to not die. I’m not suggesting immortality, but lifespans so long that we stop thinking about lifespans. At the end of the day, the one thing we each care about more than anything else is one more breath. I’m proud of Kate for taking on this responsibility. It’s painful, exhausting and costly. The beginning of the world’s first n=2.

@karpathy @yuris Whoa! More rockets and fuel for the jawdropping rocketship that is Anthropic 🚀

Personal update: I've joined Anthropic. I think the next few years at the frontier of LLMs will be especially formative. I am very excited to join the team here and get back to R&D. I remain deeply passionate about education and plan to resume my work on it in time.

The fastest way to learn is to try, fail, and write down why you failed.

the way i actually learned something omfg😭

@marcelluswiley Speed pedal

What do you call the gas pedal in an electric car? 😳 In our Tesla and the kids just asked me… Yo, I’m stuck?!? 🤯🤣

@nikitabier 😂

This is equivalent to trying to sell a cop drugs while he’s in uniform in his police car.

@EricJorgenson @anishmoonka @bryan_johnson Was thinking the exact same thing 😅

@anishmoonka @bryan_johnson ever tried this?

Researchers at the University of Bergen ran a study comparing 213 Sudanese men. Half brushed their teeth with a chewed tree root. Half used a regular plastic toothbrush. The tree root group came out with healthier gums and less plaque. That stick is called a miswak. The WHO has been quietly recommending it since 1986. In 2011, scientists at Sweden’s Karolinska Institute finally cracked the chemistry. The active ingredient is benzyl isothiocyanate, a natural plant defense compound from the same family of sulfur molecules that give cabbage and mustard their sharp bite. The compound punches through the outer wall of bacteria that cause gum disease. From there, it dismantles the chemistry that keeps the bacteria alive. The Karolinska team isolated it by running root extracts through a chemical analyzer that identifies individual molecules. The stick comes from the Salvadora persica tree, which grows in dry parts of Africa, the Middle East, and India. Inside the wood you also find natural fluoride, a gentle abrasive called silica that polishes off plaque, sulfur compounds, and tannins that tighten gum tissue. A separate team at Sweden’s University of Gothenburg ran another trial. They soaked the sticks in a fluoride solution. The fluoride left in the test group’s saliva came out higher than what people got from regular fluoride toothpaste. A more recent systematic review pulled together a stack of randomized trials. Miswak on its own controlled plaque about as well as a regular toothbrush. Used alongside the toothbrush, it actually beat brushing alone on both plaque and gum inflammation scores. The Princess Nourah University trial from 2024 complicates that. Over two weeks, the miswak group’s plaque held steady while the toothbrush group’s dropped further. And gums in the miswak group got noticeably worse for people who sawed at their teeth too hard. Aggressive horizontal scrubbing tears at the soft tissue along the gum line. One stick costs under 10 cents in the regions where the tree grows, and a single twig lasts for weeks. In sub-Saharan Africa, herbal toothpastes built around miswak and neem (another bitter chewing-stick tree) made up over a quarter of toothpaste sales in 2023. The honest caveat is that Western dental literature treats the miswak as an add-on rather than a replacement, mostly because reaching the back molars with a stick is awkward. Used correctly, with soft perpendicular brushing along the gum line and no aggressive sawing, it does what a toothbrush does and adds a low-grade antibiotic on top. For most of human dental history, this is what cleaning your teeth looked like.

The brain is designed to learn through constant repetition and active, hands-on involvement. Through such practice and persistence, any skill can be mastered.

@elonmusk @dinkin_flickaa Please change it back to being about great movies: Make Movies Great Again

Who specifically is the asshole who added DEI lies to Academy Awards eligibility instead of it just being about making the best movie?

Love this framing
