They are not obsessed with welfare, it’s mostly propaganda. Many retired people in rural areas receive pensions of only about $50 per month. A lot of workers are harshly exploited, often working 9/9/6 schedules. Children face intense competition in school, and if they fail, their future prospects are limited. The whole system resembles a form of Social Darwinism. And I’m not saying all this as an insult, I actually find it interesting. It just bothers me when people portray it as something it isn’t.

You're feeling bored because you're not doing side quests. Life isn't just work and lying in bed doing nothing. Here are 50 side quests every man should accomplish:

Trump post on Iran/shipping Countries from all over the World, almost all of which are not involved in the Middle Eastern dispute going on so visibly, and violently, for all to see, have asked the United States if we could help free up their Ships, which are locked up in the Strait of Hormuz, on something which they have absolutely nothing to do with — They are merely neutral and innocent bystanders! For the good of Iran, the Middle East, and the United States, we have told these Countries that we will guide their Ships safely out of these restricted Waterways, so that they can freely and ably get on with their business. Again, these are Ships from areas of the World that are not in any way involved with that which is currently taking place in the Middle East. I have told my Representatives to inform them that we will use best efforts to get their Ships and Crews safely out of the Strait. In all cases, they said they will not be returning until the area becomes safe for navigation, and everything else. This process, Project Freedom, will begin Monday morning, Middle East time. I am fully aware that my Representatives are having very positive discussions with the Country of Iran, and that these discussions could lead to something very positive for all. The Ship movement is merely meant to free up people, companies, and Countries that have done absolutely nothing wrong — They are victims of circumstance. This is a Humanitarian gesture on behalf of the United States, Middle Eastern Countries but, in particular, the Country of Iran. Many of these Ships are running low on food, and everything else necessary for largescale crews to stay on board in a healthy and sanitary manner. I think it would go a long way in showing Goodwill on behalf of all of those who have been fighting so strenuously over the last number of months. If, in any way, this Humanitarian process is interfered with, that interference will, unfortunately, have to be dealt with forcefully. Thank you for your attention to this matter! DONALD J. TRUMP PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

People with ADHD have what’s called Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria (RSD). It’s an extreme emotional response to perceived criticism or rejection. Your brain can’t regulate the emotional pain, so a small comment feels like a devastating attack. A minor correction feels like total failure. Someone’s tone feels like hatred. It’s not oversensitivity. It’s not being dramatic. Your brain literally can’t modulate the intensity of that emotional response. It’s neurological, not a character flaw

Never thought the day would come when I’d share my Jane Street interview story in public. I thought I’d save it for the kids. Oh, well… I was “called in” for a “meeting” in the dead of night, dragged out from my run-down Eastern European apartment and onto a C-130 carrier by a dozen masked goons, my head still thumping from the Moldovan hooker’s cocaine I had taken several hours prior. I don’t even remember sending out a résumé; I only vaguely recall one of my IMO pals, Vítězslav, telling me about Jane during one of our training camps the same year I won gold… We landed several klicks north of Juba, near the Nile coastline. They hauled my ass into a makeshift paramilitary base consisting of old canvas tents, a dodgy barbed-wire fence, and a couple of military trucks guarding the perimeter. The place was riddled with innumerable, unidentifiable wooden crates. One of the bigger tents in the back of the compound was emitting a low-frequency humming noise that resonated with the thumping pain of my coke comedown. “Sounds like a fucking data center,” I jokingly hissed through my clenched teeth. Upon entering what I surmised was the command center, they handed me off to this young, reserved fellow known as Lieutenant Wolf (a furry). He was lanky, adolescent-like, and Asian. They were all Asian. Some were sitting in front of several monitors, deep into messy time series; others gathered around a blackboard covered in anime pinups and bizarro measure-theory mumbo jumbo. A third group was doing heroin. Wolf called these kids quant grunts. Qunts for short. I was told to wait for my interviewer—Strat Sergeant Robert something, some WOP name I don’t remember to this day. I started fraternizing with the other recruits. We were shooting the shit, smoked some gummy-flavored whatever as they taught me about fill-or-kill. “Y’all know ’bout fillin’ or killin’?” The whole tent went dead silent. It was him - the Strat Sergeant. He was leaning against the tent entrance, half-naked, with only a black fedora covering his thin, long hair that stuck to his camo pant suspenders. Bottle of Jack in hand. He pulled me aside. “I heard your dad was chief production engineer at the Arsenal weapons plant in Bulgaria?” “Affirmative,” I nodded. A mischievous smile enlivened his otherwise statuesque face. “There’s a lot of money to be made in the Kalashnikov-to-crude-oil spread—beaucoup movement in the market at the moment,” he chuckled. “Seven million dollars of high-strength Soviet steel can buy you a lifetime supply of around 200 kbpd of discounted crude.” I laughed nervously in agreement. “Bob” stared silently into the distance for an uncomfortable amount of time afterward. Something visibly annoyed him. He suddenly snapped out of it and set his sights on me. “Well,” he grinned again, “are you ready for the speed round of the interview?” “Arithmetic?” I tensed up. “No,” he countered. “Field strip.” He threw an AK-47 at me, which I only then noticed he had been brandishing, carefully hidden behind his back. “Tomorrow, I’m going to teach you how we fill AND kill.” Didn’t make it to the final round.

Drums progress, 4th session

Jane Street made ~$40B in 2025 with 3,500 employees, a ~2x from the year before. At ~65-70% profit margin, that's $8M profit / employee, the highest for a 1000+ ppl company. High-frequency trading continues to be the most efficient money making engine. I want to share an old story about my Jane Street interview in 2014. Jane Street was known for hiring a lot of math, physics and CS olympiad winners from top universities and putting them through many rounds - including, for trading roles, a gauntlet of mental math. It was my 6th interview and my final round and I recall being asked "What is the next day after today in DD/MM/YYYY where all the digits are unique?" They'd toy with you and say "You can use a pencil and paper, if you want" but you knew that was an instant no. Painstakingly and as quickly as I could, I came to an answer. "How confident are you that this is correct on a 0-1 probability scale?" the interviewer said. "0.95", I blurted out, not fully knowing how to answer that. "Are you sure?" After thinking harder for a few more seconds, I realized I could've flipped the digits around to get a closer date. I gave the interviewer my answer. It was correct. "0.95 huh?" he chuckled. That's when I knew I failed. Note: fwiw, other companies that come close in efficiency are - Tether ($90M+ profit/emp) - Hyperliquid ($80M+ profit/emp) and on revenue: - Valve ($50M/emp) - OnlyFans ($37M/emp) - Craigslist ($14M/emp) - Anthropic ($12M/emp, run rate) - OpenAI ($8M/emp, run rate) For comparison, Nvidia is very efficient at scale and is $4.4M/emp.

Както е тръгнало, дали гласувалите за Рублен Радев, няма първи да сформират протест срещу него! Гласувахте уж за проруски льотчик, а той се оказа просто политическото "ветрило"🤣
