@SnazzyLabs @elonmusk Still the only new car company to reach profitability. Still achieved accelerating the advent of sustainable energy. Still pushing forward innovative manufacturing techniques. Still the only car to achieve FSD vision only.

@SnazzyLabs @elonmusk And? I don’t quite get the obsession with caring about overly optimistic and ambitious targets. At this point everyone knows they’ll miss them but they know what is being strived for.

Socialists talk as if humans were just parts in a system. In reality, we are unique, competitive, and creative. Any system that demands equal outcomes from unequal people has to push against human nature, and eventually resort to force. That is why it always fails.

@frankmikesmith @conserv55021 @JonnyRoot_ Problem is, basically no sub 16 year old will choose to train at the level needed to be an Olympian. He opened the door to the possibility. Having her freedom allowed her to use that foundation to reach her full potential.

This is exactly why you don't force kids into sports. Alysa Liu's entire life was dedicated to skating. Not by choice, but because her father demanded it. She won the US Championship at 13, but announced her retirement at 16. She threw her skates in the closet and decided to experience the world. She hiked to Everest base camp, got her driver's license and studied at UCLA. After a ski trip in 2024, she had the itch to lace them up again and nailed a double axel. She announced her comeback, but only on her terms. She wouldn't allow her father (or anyone) to tell her what to eat, when to train or how to dress. The result was athletic and creative liberation. Despite the hiatus, Alysa entered Milan as the favorite to win gold and delivered on the hype.

Also, in Utah where so many people are members and many times have family and friend connections they are managing "the one" can get missed a lot more often. We moved our family to Sydney Australia is 2024 for a temporary assignment. The embrace of the ward has been next level. I truly felt like I had a second family in less that 6 months. That is the way the church should and can feel.

I’ve struggled with my ward and church attendance a lot the last 6-8 months. Never a testimony thing really. Just haven’t felt it at church like I used to. Had the feeling I needed to go today more than usual. I’ve struggled a lot with my ward. Connecting with people. Which is probably more on me than anything else. Walked into sacrament a few minutes late. Sat in the back. Got this text. I’ve never had something like that happen before if I’m being honest. Pretty cool.

"Why have we had such a decline in moral climate? I submit to you that a major factor has been a change in the philosophy which has been dominant, a change from belief in individual responsibility to belief in social responsibility. If you adopt the view that a man is not responsible for his own behavior, that somehow society is responsible, why should he seek to make his behavior good?" — Milton Friedman

It is truly a blessing to live in an era where we can witness greatness in sport from anywhere in the world. That was not always the case earlier in my life, and it makes moments like I just witnessed even more meaningful.   Watching Novak Djokovic in the semi-finals of the Australian Open just now was a powerful reminder of why he stands as the greatest tennis player the game has ever known. He is now pursuing his 25th major championship, an achievement that speaks not only to talent, but to discipline, resilience and an unwavering commitment to excellence. I only wish everyone could view such performances with both appreciation and understanding, recognising greatness with fairness and respect.   The Australian crowds were magnificent just as they always were for me, and Novak’s pursuit of what would be his 11th Australian Open title carries special significance. History shows that the very greatest champions often face adversity late in their careers, yet it is precisely this adversity that defines them.   Across all sports, true superstars share one defining trait: longevity. We have seen it time and again with Jack Nicklaus winning the Masters at 46, Tiger Woods, Ben Hogan after this car accient, Tom Brady, Muhammad Ali, Michael Phelps, LeBron James and others. These athletes return to the summit not by chance, but because they possess something rare. Longevity, in my view, is one of the most underrated attributes in sport. Just as a great engine allows a BMW to endure, a great inner drive allows champions to last.   I was deeply moved watching Novak. His journey began under extraordinary hardship, growing up amid conflict surrounding his childhood. To rise from that environment to this level of global excellence is nothing short of remarkable. What he has achieved is admirable beyond words.   Novak now faces a monumental challenge in the final, but his legacy is already secure. Across all sports and all generations, only a handful of athletes possess what can only be described as “it.” That quality cannot be defined, measured or explained, but you know it when you see it.   Novak Djokovic has IT.

The U.S. is not alone in grappling with diversity in winter sports. In Europe, immigration from Africa and the Middle East has rapidly changed the demographics of the top winter sports countries. That won't be reflected in their rosters for the Milan Cortina Winter Olympics.

Nadal has been my favorite tennis player because of his sheer grit and determination. While on accomplishment alone it is clear that Djokovic had become the true men's GOAT, Nadal was still the GOAT in my heart. That may have changed tonight. The grit and determination that Djokovic showed, fighting through physical difficulties in the third set and saving over 14 break points, was just astounding. He came up so big in all the most important moments. It was only the semifinals but it felt like a final. Truly a match for the ages!

90% of this country’s problems would be solved by: 1. Term limits for congress 2. Banning congressional stock trading 3. Campaign finance reform But none will ever happen because it’d have to be passed by the leeches that currently benefit from the problem.
nic carter@nic_carter

honestly so weird that this is casually permitted. analysts at bulge brackets have spyware installed on their laptops so they don't make unauthorized trades. and members of congress just ... do whatever they want, all the time.
