@wander_investor I guess you still need to activate the cards so they can’t do much with them?

I had 5 debit/credit cards forwarded from the US to an address in Paraguay via UPS. 3 of the 5 were stolen at Paraguayan customs.

@anishmoonka I stopped reading at the WHO said something.

You make a cancer-fighting chemical in your brain every night. It kills tumor cells and fixes broken DNA while you sleep. Only works in the dark. The hormone is called melatonin, and when you flip on the lights at 2 AM, your brain stops making it. Melatonin is the sleep hormone. But it moonlights as your body’s overnight cancer patrol. It chokes off the blood supply to tumors and wakes up your natural killer cells (the white blood cells that hunt down cancer). Melatonin also flips on genes that order damaged cells to stop dividing. Researchers at Tulane ran an experiment where they exposed rats to dim light at night. Not bright light. Dim. The tumors lost their natural growth rhythms and grew nonstop. The WHO classified night shift work as “probably carcinogenic” in 2007. Reviewed everything again in 2019. Kept the classification. Same risk category as UV radiation. Your body’s internal clock controls more than when you sleep. It schedules DNA repair. There’s a repair protein called XPA that rises and falls on a 24-hour cycle, timed by your clock genes. When scientists knocked those genes out in mice, DNA repair went haywire and tumors grew faster. The same clock decides when damaged cells kill themselves off before they turn cancerous. Wreck the clock, you lose all of that. Denmark started paying workers’ comp for this. In 2008, the Danish government said: if you worked night shifts at least once a week for 20+ years and got breast cancer, that’s an occupational disease. Between 2007 and 2011, 110 women got compensated. One was a flight attendant who did 30 years of overnight flights for SAS airlines. No other country has followed. 1 in 5 workers worldwide works night shifts. In the US, that’s around 15 million people, mostly in healthcare, factories, and trucking. The exposure tilts hard toward people who can least afford it: 20% of workers without a high school diploma pull non-daytime shifts vs. under 2% of college grads. I’ll be straight with you, the science isn’t totally settled. A big 2020 analysis pooling 57 studies and 8.5 million people found no clear overall link between night shifts and cancer. But a 2024 study tracking how risk changes with time on the job told a different story: 9% higher breast cancer risk after 20 years of night work. 13% higher after 30. The lab evidence in animals is clear cut. The human data is messier, the way it always is when you’re studying something millions of people do in a thousand different ways.

@AlexHormozi How do you know the thing you are working on is the one you should be focusing?

One of the most profound behavior changes I've had as an entrepreneur, which was against my nature, was to stop seeking out opportunities when I still had problems I needed to fix within my business. You have to switch from shiny object syndrome to golden BB obsession. Fixing a hundred small things is more boring but creates the outsized outcomes the shiny object syndrome promises but never delivers.

@hispanicnomad It’s a wonder the hacienda didn’t offer euthanasia.

A friend of mine runs a physical store in Spain 🇪🇸 with his brothers One of the brothers discovered their card gave 5% cashback on all POS transactions So he did what any reasonable idiot would do: started running their own cards through their own terminal. Paying themselves, essentially, to farm the cashback Trollface. No victims, so basically free money But of course, Hacienda saw the transactions and assumed fraud Two years of inspections, letters, lawyers, and the constant threat of having their accounts frozen. Two years of running a business while a government agency treats you like a money launderer for outsmarting a credit card reward program They didn't do anything wrong; there was no victim. The only people who lost money were the card company, and frankly that's their problem But here's how Spain works: it doesn't matter if you're innocent. What matters is whether you can survive the process They couldn't. After two years they settled for a €50,000 fine just to make it stop. Because the alternative (to keep fighting while Hacienda threatens to foreclose) was going to cost them more €50,000... For cashback farming This is the part people don't understand about Spain's tax system. It's not just that the laws are bad. It's that the process itself is the punishment You don't have to be guilty. You just have to be tired and give up. And most do

Wouldn’t this be done OTC and not some Turk selling it on a brokerage account on behalf of the country.

@BowTiedMara And Flybondi cancellation rates. 😅

The whole world will now be paying Buenos Aires Ezeiza prices 🤗

You book an @ITAAirways business class ticket and they still want to upsell you "duo seat" - I guess it's expected when @Ryanair does it for a 40 euro ticket but it's a total joke to see this for a 4k euro ticket.

@Van_Diemen_ Best I’ve seen in BA was a Toyota Corolla. I thank God when I see that in Uber instead of a duct taped Dacia Logan

As much as they hate on Paraguay 🇵🇾.. You'll still never see a Lambo in Buenos Aires, let alone a BMW. La verdad 😶‍🌫️

I have lived in Cyprus for 4 years and: - It’s safe(er) than major EU cities. Had a burglary and an attempted burglary in two years. - It’s dirty AF (people think it’s perfectly fine to dump litter road side) - Tax friendly only if you receive dividends and capital gains. - Not walkable outside of core city centre But then you disregard all the above the moment you open the window and sunshine is 98% guaranteed, go for a daily swim in the most glorious weather and pristine sea.

@BarbellFi Queue the “debasement is more than 5%” comment

20 Year Treasury yield now up to 5% You can buy $1 million of these bonds Collect $50k/year for 20 years Pay no state and local taxes Then get $1 million back in 20 years Why aren’t more people doing this? 🤔

@MyLatinLife Where are the US missile ranges?

Called it

@CryptoCurb Maybe thats why they did this, if they did middleeasteye.net/news/egypt-ann…

i feel bad for Dubai / UAE they had the right idea - high end luxury, futuristic tech, tax benefits, etc… they picked the wrong fucking location.

@amix3k Literally the same with my brother in law. He’s getting a surgery in two days. Do you know what the cause was in your case, was it genetic?

Apple Watch is a seriously underrated product. A few years ago, my Apple Watch alerted me that it had detected a heart arrhythmia. It was the first time I had any indication that something might be wrong. I went to see a doctor, they did some studies, but they couldn’t find anything. I also had zero symptoms of heart issues. A few years later, I got the Apple Watch Ultra, which let me take an ECG whenever an arrhythmia was detected. I then visited another doctor and showed the ECG readings. He could clearly see that I had a severe arrhythmia. Fast forward to today: I underwent a pulsed field ablation, a procedure that uses rapid, high-energy electrical pulses to destroy problematic heart tissue. I feel great, and the arrhythmia is gone! 🎉 I’m deeply grateful to the people who built the Apple Watch. Without it, I could have gone many more years without discovering this issue. And, of course, I’m grateful to the doctors, nurses and the advances in medicine that made treatment possible. It’s incredible what can be done today. The whole setup felt super high-tech.

@BeardyBrandon Always check Thyroid first. I also find that if my room is not well lit from natural light I get sleepy too.

Anyone else just... tired, a LOT? Like, I sleep 8 hours a night, more or less. Eat super clean. Workout, steps, etc. But I yawn 50+ times a day. Anyone else? Any tips?

Down only.

@chasedownleads This is a trick question. I would never be in this position. Helicopter only.

The answer is incredibly obvious

@arvidkahl Do they have X or website or is that so 2020?

This cold sales email I just got is too amazing not to share. 🤣 “Would love your feedback: STRIPE LINK”. Bold.

@geoflags8 Photos look too good must be AI 😃

🇧🇷 If you're in Brazil, don't skip Búzios. Two hours from Rio but feels like a different country. Crystal water, small calm beach towns, great seafood. Brazil has layers most tourists never see.

@sachinyadav699 Half my code.

You don’t need investors. You don’t need a startup office. You don’t need a 10-person team. You just need this: > Claude - writes half your code > Supabase - backend magically works > Vercel - deploy button go brr > Namecheap - $10 domain = startup > Stripe - money printer > GitHub - commit at 3:17 AM > Resend - “welcome to our product” email > Clerk - auth you don’t want to build > Cloudflare - DNS + free speed > PostHog - watch users click stuff > Sentry - tells you what you broke > Upstash - Redis without pain > Pinecone - AI brain storage

@AlpacaAurelius Where do you get it without heavy metals?
