peptides can’t be regulated. trying to is like regulating code. 100 million can be synthesized. the value is in the AI that knows which one you need. that system is a digital twin of your body. this is Palantir at $7. same thesis. same upside.

@chamath @elonmusk no shade to @chamath for recognizing an opportunity. Hoping we can democratize the chance for those of us smaller fish doing our best to navigate the singularity.

I plan to buy and deploy large fleets around the country when possible. Should pay back and be positive FCF < 2 years…
Teslaconomics@Teslaconomics

I plan on owning my own Tesla Robotaxi fleet one day. And the more I run the numbers, the more I realize this new business could become one of the most powerful income opportunities I've ever seen. This is how I'm thinking about it. Based on many analyst models and Tesla’s long-term vision, a reasonable base case assumption is about ~$30,000 per year in net profit per Robotaxi to the owner. This is after things like Tesla’s platform fee, charging, tires, maintenance, insurance, and cleaning. Of course, the network is still early and Tesla is just beginning to roll this out in pilot programs in a few cities, so there’s no official real-world owner earnings yet... but using reasonable assumptions around utilization, pricing per mile, and operating costs, the math starts to get really interesting. If one Robotaxi can earn around $30,000 per year, here’s what a fleet might look like: • $100,000 per year → about 4 Robotaxis • $500,000 per year → about 17 Robotaxis • $1,000,000 per year → about 34 Robotaxis It may sound a bit crazy at first, but when you break it down, it starts to make more sense. These vehicles could potentially drive 50,000 to 100,000+ miles per year in high demand areas. If the economics land somewhere around $0.25-$0.50 profit per mile after all costs, you end up right around that ~$30k per vehicle per year range. And remember, the Tesla’s Robotaxi network is going to work a lot like Airbnb for cars. You add your vehicle to the network, Tesla handles the software, routing, payments, and rider experience, and they take a platform fee (often modeled around 25-35%). The owner keeps the rest after operating costs. Another thing that makes this interesting is the expected cost of the vehicles themselves. Tesla has talked about the purpose-built Cybercabs costing roughly $25k-$30k and Elon told me production is starting in 1 month! If that’s even close to reality, a fleet capable of generating around $1 million per year could theoretically cost somewhere around $850k-$1M in vehicles. That ROI is pretty freakin good! Now to be clear, none of this is guaranteed. I'm just thinking out loud and sharing it with you... a lot still depends on regulations, how fast unsupervised FSD scales, demand in each city, insurance costs, and how Tesla structures the network. But if the system works the way Elon has described it for years, owning a Robotaxi fleet could become one of the most powerful forms of passive income I've ever seen. And I plan on sharing the numbers with everyone on 𝕏 when the day comes. Personally, that’s why I’m paying such close attention. Bc one day, owning a fleet of autonomous Teslas working for me 24/7 might be the modern version of owning a rental property, except instead of tenants, you’ve got robots driving people around all day while you sleep. This next book of Tesla is going to be so exciting!

Illimitable Man (IM)
Illimitable Man (IM)@SovereignIM·
In man, she loves the masculine: risk taking, daring, conquest driven, ruthless, dominant, defiant, assertive - she loves the monster But crucially too, she looks for the human in that monster, the beast that would be divine, and for that she looks for the feminine in him: intuition, receptivity, attunement, expressiveness, sympathy, sensitivity and nuturing The former of course being more masculine than the latter, but the synthesis of each being perfectly masculine in a way that makes the former alone look primitive - for you see, to woman, the "true man" is a man who has integrated his feminine without losing his masculine - and in that sense, has transcended his primitive barbarianism to resemble god in his paternalism - fatherliness is apex masculinity, and the perfect father is God, but within man: the synergised synthesis of masculine and feminine within the male vessel. It is for this reason she loves a man who knows how to appreciate her without being consumed by her or sycophantic to her, because he embodies the best of her without losing the best of himself. To simply prefer the feminine to the masculine is to self-betray, to surrender, to lose all respect and get nothing. To understand the feminine in all its darkness, appreciate its light, and incorporate that into yourself as a man whilst retaining your masculine edge is something else entirely. In truth, most women are forced into unsatisfying mate choices: be it the sensitive attuned man who lacks ruthlessness, the cerebral man who lacks courage or sensitivity, or the ruthless man who lacks wisdom. Forced to pick a single lane, the ruthless will win everytime, but of course the best of men does not inhabit just one lane, but all. But if she is greedy, and she is, for as the receptive principle she is endlessly devouring - then she longs for it all - she longs for man as both savagery and poetry - the paradox who has integrated contradictions in tension to resemble art - a man with the voltage to be as chaotic and thrilling as she is, whilst being reasonable and grounded enough to stabilise her. A man who can take her to the highest heights she's ever known, and then catch her as she falls without flinching - he is both adventurer and leader. Very few women ever get to know such a man, for to be such a man is to, irrespective of all other factors, be the best of men. Which is why if you are a man who wants your pick of only the finest daughters, then becoming this man will grant you your wish.

this is going to sound dramatic as hell but the world you knew is pretty much over. very recently i think we crossed a one way bridge as a species & most people on earth haven’t realized that fact yet. imho there are now non trivial odds the economy gets drastically disrupted in the next 24 - 36 months via a giant supply shock followed by a demand shock.

In theory, the US shift to being a Hemispheric Hegemon while reindustrializing should work. However, in theory, Rome in 300 AD should have been able to survive another 1,000 years. The problem was the advanced internal rot, as we are currently seeing in Minneapolis. 1/
Labrador Skeptic@SaysSimulation

As I've written about before, a controlled American withdrawal over the next ~5-10 yrs, retreating to our hemisphere, is much better for the entire world than the empire collapse alternative. If this is to work - we can't take on new commitments on the other side of the world 1/

The ability to tell whether you’re coping or actually growing may be the most valuable skill you can develop. Are you being honest with yourself and growing/expanding? Or are you subtly avoiding something and calling it progress or thinking it’s progress just because you see another angle? This becomes especially difficult the smarter you are, because intelligence makes it easy to think about your problems instead of actually working on them. And while there is a time and place to think, that process has to be paired with feeling. Without that, thinking becomes another form of avoidance. For years, I kept running into the same problems in my life. No matter how much I analyzed them, nothing changed. I thought I was doing the work. I wasn’t. What I didn’t realize then was that the solution wasn’t more thinking. It was feeling. Feeling the pain. Feeling the discomfort. Feeling the emotions I was trying to outrun, mask, intellectualize, or hide from myself. Once I stopped resisting those feelings and leaned into them, something shifted. The problems lost their grip. Or more accurately I was able to fully see and feel the problems. I was able to move through them instead of endlessly circling them. If you only think about a problem and never allow yourself to feel it, you’re not actually solving it. You’re just refining the logic around the problem. And that’s because the problem isn’t purely logical. It’s emotional too. You can’t resolve one without addressing the other. So if you find yourself stuck in the same patterns, unable to make progress, or feeling emotionally stuck, it’s almost always a sign of the same thing: You’re not feeling the problem.

Let go of the idea of "the one". The idea of the one comes from the feeling that you're incomplete, lacking in self love or direction, and that another person out there is the puzzle piece that completes your feedback loop, makes you whole, while you do the same for them. This is nonsense. What actually happens when you run that script - the part of you that is hungry for connection is where all your unaddressed issues are. Your abandonment, your attachment, your fear, your unresolved identity. The magnetic pole when you want to be completed - uses everything in you that is incomplete. This is the ugly that you don't even want to look at now. This is what you're using to match. And this is what they are using to match, too. Besides the obvious issues of giving a woman, who is reactive and works as an amplifier, your own weakness, as if she could do anything with it - besides that obviously stupid filtering mechanism, it cannot work. The magnetic union feels like completion but as a whole the machine is twice as broken. Each person's dysfunction is now in the hands of the other - she's in charge of your issues, you in charge of hers, through your respective blind spots. This is not even love yet. You're trying to experience self love. You're trying to be one. Trying to be you. --- So there's not "the one". That feeling, the state that you're trying to pursue through other people, your own self completion, that's your job before you can actually love another person. The actual love for another person is resonance. The resonance is a product of your self flowing through the frame. Filling the frame completely. As one. Once you remove dysfunction. Love is deep, spiritual, lucid connection. Resonance. Communion. No one can do that for you, but you can be there with others. The one is you. "Can I be satisfied if I don't betray nor degrade myself and only take a girl when she sees me as my max potential" Yes and it is the only way that is worth it. Every other option will seem fun in your head and hell when put in practice.

@YOHAMI Hi Yohami, do you think the “Happiness” and dopamine from chasing and eventually being with a girl I consider “the one” and my type, can be matched when in TG mode I only go for girls giving me the brad pitt treatment? Granted those girls arent my type? Thank you

I need you to sit down for a moment and fully understand this: THE COUNTRY THAT SOLVES AI AND ROBOTICS WILL RULE THE WORLD AND SPACE. The west really only has @elonmusk, the east has 100s of companies fortified by an ENTIRE COUNTRY. Now some will argue no this is not true. No US company has the scale to MANUFACTURE, the compute power, and the finances to compete. Just a few hours ago we saw IRON for the first time, now you will. IRON, a 5’10, 150-lb AI humanoid robots are already building EV cars on the XPENG Motors factory floor. It has over 60 joints, a human-like spine, facial expressions, and male/female customizations The gait of this robot is the most human-like ever seen. Mass rollout in 2026. It is a very big deal. Because as the west does the best in clubbing each other over its head the last decade, China has looked and laughed and built at scale with a fortified government that has little diversion of goal, a 1000 year plan. The west has quietly plans and layers of lawyers and politicians. This is about where YOU LIVE and how you want to live. So when we kick the one person that is Atlas carrying our chance, in the groin, you make a choice on who’s world view you want. It is that simple. No, it is that simple. It ain’t no iPhone it is: whose’s world view will sustain. I can say no one is ready for what I have seen that is up for the next few years. You will think my bombastics were too tame.

Time allocation is now more important than capital allocation. Capital allocation is a solved problem. Just buy Bitcoin and hold it until you reach escape velocity. The left and right sides of the bell curve understand this. But time allocation? This is an evolving field of study. Personally I'm baking some unique assumptions into my time allocation decisions. Assumptions no one in human history has ever had to navigate. Namely, that AI will completely upend the world as we know it inside of 10 years. There will soon be an abundance of tireless intelligence that exceeds the capacity of the smartest humans on earth. They will be solving humanity's biggest challenges around the clock. That seems entirely reasonable to me. And 10 years is probably a conservative timeline. Even if you completely discount the emergence of a recursively self-improving superintelligence, you should at least consider the possibility that >90% of all paid mental work will disappear. There will be vast societal and economic consequences. Life 10 years from now could be far better or far worse. The optimist in me chooses to believe it will be far better as fewer people will be wasting time on menial work, and the price of things will fall dramatically when priced in BTC. But how should you act if you believe the world will change in an extreme way within the next 10 years? Everyone is in different situations. Personally I'd do everything I could to get as close to 1 Bitcoin as possible within the next 3 years. But if you're already in a solid financial situation, you should probably add a much larger premium to your time than you already do. That's what I'm doing. We are living in a golden age that we will look back on with extreme nostalgia. Similar to how many people look at the time before the Internet as a special time... But x100 - No mass reliance on UBI. - Opportunities for upward mobility still exist with hard work and ingenuity. - No autonomous face-scanning police roaming the streets. - Most places are still safe and pleasant to visit. Are you soaking it in? Are you experiencing this time fully instead of living for the future? As I consider how I want to educate my children, it's obvious that the current system isn't setup for the world that's coming. 20th century jobs as we know them will disappear. Worker drones will be useless. So instead of inculcating the habit of daily mental work and prioritizing the next grade, the next milestone, etc... (as I was trained to do) I will raise kids who know how to enjoy the present. I will encourage their natural ability to live with energy and joy today. I will teach them to value mental, physical, and spiritual discipline. They will dance, laugh, explore, and love. They will do strenuous physical activities, meditate, and spend lots of time in nature with friends and family. They will play sports and make art. And rather than prioritize more financial wealth, I will do these things with them along the way. Because I now view this as the best way to allocate time to prepare for the likely future. And if I'm wrong? The beauty is I'll never regret these things no matter what happens. Study time allocation. Consider the future we're headed towards. And adjust course accordingly 🫡
