How a tweet led to me joining @chamath's new company @8090solutions: (We are hiring 10x engineers! Share a project you've built that you are most proud of if interested!) My friend @TheZachEffect works with the summit and was telling me about the great speakers last year (@tobi @MrBeast , etc). Major FOMO. But the $7000+ ticket was outside my student budget My friend @ZoomifiGuy was going and shared @Jason's post giving away one free ticket I knew I had to give it a shot! I thought about why I wanted to go As a Waterloo engineering student I'm in a bubble of engineers and technical people But most people using technology are very different from me I wanted to talk to people who are interested in technology/AI but come from different backgrounds. What are they excited for/interested in? Packaged this up in a Tweet and hit "Post" To my surprise, @Jason gave me the ticket! So within a day I booked a flight, got on a plane and flew from Toronto to Los Angeles for a conference @heidibraun helped get me into the "VIP" dinner (thank you!) There I saw @chamath. He was mobbed by people so it was hard to get a word in and talk to him I saw him go to the washroom and took my chance I went in as well and started washing my hands Five minutes later Chamath joins me and I introduce myself, tell him I'm a @UWaterloo student and talk about my project dubbah dot co I had built with my friend @povgoggles He tells me about his new company @8090solutions , and tells me to send my resume to his email I meet with his team. Instantly impressed by how smart they are and their technical chops. They liked me too and the rest is history! Big thanks to @Yung_Spielburg for letting me crash on his couch! It was also great seeing old friends and making new ones: @BigBrother_Jane @drfzs @ChrisMadden_

Amo Dei

Age is not an excuse to not try. At the age of 32, Julius Caesar broke down in tears before a statue of Alexander the Great, realizing he had accomplished almost nothing in his life while Alexander had already conquered much of the known world. Serving as a minor official in Spain and burdened by heavy debts, Caesar felt his existence was insignificant by comparison. This moment of painful self-reflection became a turning point that sparked a fierce new determination. He returned to Rome, rose rapidly through politics, conquered Gaul, invaded Britain, won a civil war, and fundamentally transformed Rome into a vast empire.

John von Neumann first met his wife, Klara, at a casino in Monte Carlo. “He explained that he had perfected a way to ensure that he would win roulette every time, but promptly lost all his money trying to prove his point.”
