Very disappointed by this from @WHOOP
I bought a bundle of four lab tests last year… and apparently my purchase expires?
There’s zero reason to take away tests I already paid for.

@_9th_Life_ Yup now if I could only find a solid reta source I’d be cooking but already two failed attempts from two different site. Prob just stick to what I can get from compound pharmacy for now

Yep we're essentially all gassing ourselves with CO2 especially with the new energy saving insulation that makes houses air tight boxes, very bad for our brains!

@levelsio Western civilisation is sleeping on this problem since it only was created 20-40 years ago. Before that windows where not that airtight. Also cheap CO2 sensors ate only available for 10 years before that they where prohibitly expensive.

@hey_mindi Yes PE has turned the veterinary practice into an absolute racket.

There is something catastrophically wrong with Americas vet business.
I sat for 3 hours yesterday with our 11 year old dog.
Test after test.
I kept signing financial agreement papers, desperate to find an answer to what’s wrong.
Every step of the way, a thorough explanation of the need to do xyz.
Always with the sentence at the end “that runs $____” Sign this.
By the end of the 3 hours, my choices were pay $5000 to admit her for the rest of the afternoon or put her down.
I couldn’t think straight.
I walked in with her hours prior thinking she just had some little bug that would be simple to resolve.
I can’t stop thinking about how many people would have to choose option 2, because $5000 out of left field isn’t possible to pay.
I also can’t believe that I was forced to sit and watch a 14 min vaccine commercial reel on repeat for 3 hours while I contemplated our devastating circumstances.
This can’t be the norm.
If you have a prayer, I humbly ask if you’d lift our family up this Easter Sunday.

today I'm launching @supermirror_app
the #1 performant Mac-to-Android mirroring app
60 fps, <10ms, lossless, optimized for E-Ink devices
which means: you can now use your mac, on paper
for calm computing, deeper focus and better sleep
first prototype built with Opus 4.6 in a few hours, relentlessly optimized since
- beautiful menu bar app
- clamshell mode, touch input
- keyboard shortcuts, full CLI (hi claude)
- any android 8 device or newer
- 5 min setup
it's been such a joy to build this simple product to autistic levels of quality and performance
free 7 day trial, then $29 forever
really hope you enjoy it

Opus 4.6 is insane. Today we vibecoded what might be the best vibecoding setup in the world: a mirroring solution to use the @daylightco DC-1 as external display for my Mac. Anything you do on a Mac — now on a paperlike screen, no blue light, no PWM flicker → more relaxed nervous system & clear focus

Jensen Huang just described how he plans to outlive his own body.
Huang: “Very soon, I’m going to put a humanoid on a spaceship. And it’s going to be my humanoid.”
His robot. His frame. Launched into deep space while he is still breathing.
Huang: “Take all my inbox, take everything that I’ve done, everything I’ve said. It’s been collecting and becoming my AI. When the time comes, we’ll just send that at the speed of light, catch up with my robot.”
Your body fails. Your data does not.
Every email. Every decision. Every conversation.
Recorded. Compressed. Compiled into a model that thinks the way you think.
And when the biology gives out, that model launches at light speed to meet a titanium frame already cruising through the void.
You do not die. You transfer.
Sounds like fiction. Then he put a number on it.
Huang: “Understanding the biological machine is not 10 years. It’s five years probably.”
Five years to decode the human body the way we decoded software.
Not treat disease. Decode it. Understand the entire machine well enough to patch it like a bug.
Cancer is a bug. Alzheimer’s is a bug. Aging itself is a bug.
And the compute to find the fix doubles every year.
Huang: “It’s a reasonable thing to expect the end of disease.”
He did not say hope for. He said expect.
The man whose chips power nearly every AI system on Earth just told you the end of disease is not a dream. It is a scheduling problem.
Huang: “It’s a reasonable thing to expect that pollution will be drastically reduced. It’s a reasonable thing to expect that traveling at the speed of light is actually in our future.”
He listed these the way someone else lists quarterly targets. Items on a roadmap. Waiting on execution.
But here is the part most people will skip past. And it might be the most important thing he said.
Huang: “I’ve always had a great confidence in the kindness, the generosity, the compassion, the human capacity.”
This is the man building the most powerful computing infrastructure ever constructed.
The man whose hardware will power the intelligence that reshapes every industry, every government, every border on Earth.
And his operating principle is not paranoia. It is trust.
Huang: “Sometimes more so than I should. And I get taken advantage of. But it doesn’t ever cause me not to.”
He has been burned. He kept trusting anyway. Not naivety. Evidence.
Huang: “Vastly I am proven right. Constantly proven right. And often exceeds my expectations.”
The doomers build everything on one assumption. Power corrupts. Humans weaponize every tool they touch.
Huang has spent thirty years handing the most powerful technology in history to thousands of companies, researchers, and governments.
His conclusion is the opposite.
People want to do good. Give them the tools and they prove it.
That is not soft. That is thirty years of data from the dead center of the compute revolution.
Fridman: “What an exciting time to be alive.”
Huang: “How can you not be romantic about that?”
Romantic.
Not optimistic. Not bullish. Romantic.
Optimism is a prediction. Romance is what happens when you look at what is coming and it hits you somewhere deeper than logic.
The end of disease. Consciousness uploaded. A robot carrying your mind past the rings of Saturn.
Underneath all of it, a belief that the species wielding these tools is fundamentally good.
That is what separates Huang from every other voice in this space.
The fearful see AI and ask what could go wrong. Huang sees AI and asks how much suffering can we end.
He is not dreaming out loud. He is reading the trendline and telling you exactly where it lands.
Five years for biology. A lifetime for consciousness.
And past that, a humanoid with your mind aboard, sailing through space at the speed of light.
Built by a man who still believes in people.
The cynics will laugh.
They always do.
Right up until the moment it ships.

@0neBlazer I have and I was unimpressed at the actual quantities it found in its takeoff.

Has anyone in construction biz try using Claude AI for estimating??
I uploaded plans for a 3100sf addition and asked it for a comprehensive estimate and I am truly impressed. It created custom excel spread sheets and customized word file ready to present to the client. Woah.

@jonbrooks Where did you place your capital that now earns significantly more?
English
I sold all my real estate investments in 2022–2023.
Best decision I’ve made in years.
The capital now earns significantly more — with less stress, less overhead, and zero midnight repair calls.
Here’s what nobody tells you:
Most investors quote gross numbers.
Rent collected.
Units owned.
Portfolio size.
They don’t show:
• Net after expenses
• Net after capex
• Net after vacancy
• Net after leverage risk
• Net after time
Gross is marketing. Net is reality.

I've been investigating creatine manufacturing
It's only made in two places in the world, Germany, and China
One company makes it in Germany has a total monopoly
Multiple companies make it in China, and the past decade they've caught up to Germany in regards to purity
It's not made in America at all because none of the pre-cursor chemicals are manufactured in the USA anymore
To manufacture it in America again from beginning to end of a supply chain would require conservatively about $200 million in start up Capital

Maybe a hot take but I'm convinced that the idea that nicotine is "highly addictive" was propaganda to stop kids from getting the benefits of nicotine.
I can go weeks with Zyns, then weeks without and I don't notice a single thing. There is zero dependence, no withdrawal, no change whatsoever. I could quit tomorrow and not even notice I stopped.
I get this is all anecdotal personal experience but I don't see how something that is described as "highly addictive" could just not be at all depending on the person. At most there's an oral fixation/boredom/habit forming angle but that's not addiction.

Trump’s attacks on legal immigration are hurting Colorado’s economy. 60% of ski resorts rely on workers with J-1 visas, and many are now scrambling as they are unable to fill the positions needed.
When we shut immigrants out, we hurt our local businesses, our tourism industry, and our economy.
