Remember when Pete Hegseth’s mom wrote a whole letter saying her son was trash and he shouldn’t be allowed power over anyone?

I desperately need a quiet coworking space for myself in SF. Needs to be open past 7pm. What's the best place?

For competitive individuals who have been wronged, the best way to get out of a rut is not to plot revenge, but to win so hard that your very trajectory, brute-force tenacity, and sheer indomitable propulsion inspire all those who know you. Vengeance is a cage, for it narrows vision and thus limits your becoming. The best way to win is to keep showing up relentlessly for yourself and to set a standard that generates such invigorating momentum that you embody the energetic contrast that awakens the drive in others to rise beyond their current state.

Founder cheat code: always go for things that feel unreasonable. Go after the market everyone says is too big or too hard. Raise the big round Hire the person that you think is out of reach. Charge more money. Set crazy goals. The world will match your ambition.

In 2002, Gwynne Shotwell was a 38-year-old single mom with a stable aerospace job when she walked into a dingy El Segundo office to drop off a colleague. Elon Musk cornered her for ten minutes, grilled her on the rocket business, and created a VP of Sales role on the spot. She agonized for weeks (private space was a graveyard of failed startups) but one day on the LA freeway she grabbed her phone and called him: “I’ve been a fucking idiot. I’m taking the job.” She became roughly employee #7. Three Falcon 1 launches exploded in 2006–2007. SpaceX was days from bankruptcy. While engineers scrambled, Gwynne kept selling anyway. She flew to Iridium, closed a make-or-break deal tilted heavily in the customer’s favor because she believed so fiercely it would work. Then, on September 28, 2008, the fourth Falcon 1 finally reached orbit. Hours later she and Elon walked into NASA and sealed a $1.6 billion contract to resupply the space station— pulling the company back from the brink. That single mom who bet everything became president and COO, the reason SpaceX didn’t die and the reason it now flies more rockets than the rest of the world combined. Legend. 🚀

@MollySOShea You nailed it. There’s so much fear and AI doomerisim. There’s a dire need for a narrative shift.

Is anything new actually being said in AI other than growth adoption, lawsuits, fraud, job fear, & incremental “breakthroughs”? Am I missing something? What should I be asking?

@viemccoy a new spirituality will be born. imo we are in a 1960s redux. spirituality + consciousness will once again become huge cultural talking points. a new type of human potential movement will likely emerge. it will coincide with radical new theories of consciousness

I think people are desperate for a spirituality that allows them to maintain their sense of sanity, a spark of hope, and encourages them to make sense of artificial intelligence on the level of their souls. I think finding this is the most important task aside from AGI.

From Syrian refugee to Olympic swimmer, Yusra Mardini is the definition of grit. In 2015, she literally jumped into the Aegean Sea to pull a sinking boat to safety, saving 18 lives. Fantastic to have this outstanding Goodwill Ambassador brief the Security Council today.
