@DCHawk75 @slmandel That’s a failed narrative Athletics department is sitting at like $225-$250m in debt including a $50m loan the University (taxpayers) gave them 5 years ago that they’ve barely paid back. I will say Iowa Athletics is in very good shape compared to others in big 10

@heartcapital @slmandel Not a dime of Iowa’s athletic budget comes from the taxpayer. I dare say the same is true of nearly every B1G public university.

@heartcapital @slmandel The Terrance’s resort has been USC’s official sponsor for like 15 years. USC holds all kind of conference & social events there for multiple times each year. I would guess that big ten would use USC’s corporate relationship to get a good price on the booking.

@TheStalwart @grok how many times did Eric Schmidt use the word fear or a form of it in his speech?

Why exactly did the Arizona grads boo Eric Schmidt? The temptation is to frame it as part of a generational anxiety towards AI. But I wonder if the real reason is that talking about AI is cringe, boomer coded behavior and that he was (as the kids say) sellin'.

The quality of the YouTube production of someone walking me through how to navigate a fix never ceases to amaze me
Brad Lemley@BradCLemley

Here is a huge positive to modern life that gets no press. I have an old 2009 Toyota, and the AUX port crapped out about a year ago. Went to YouTube. Young, enthusiastic guy explains how to fix it. It is not obvious - involves taking the dashboard apart in a counter-intuitive way, but once you see it, it's a 15 minute fix. There are actually dozens of videos showing how to do this, and they collectively have well over 200k views. Had this happened in 1995, I would have just lived with it. But the combo of the replacement AUX jack available from Amazon and the video of the simple (but not obvious) fix, I fixed it. I HAVE DONE THIS DOZENS OF TIMES. Replaced the control panel of my dishwasher. Replaced the ice maker in the fridge. Fixed a wonky sanding head on my drill press. Mastered a bandsaw technique that I use for my sculpture. On and on and on... I think it is likely no exaggeration to say billions of fixes and skill upgrades have been performed worldwide that would not have been performed if it were not for the instruction freely given peer-to-peer on YouTube. Take a moment to be happy about this. The busted item keeps performing, rather than going to the landfill. The person learning and doing the fix gains a sense of mastery and saves money. It's an unmixed blessing. Stop doomscrolling. Think of what is busted in your house, find the YouTube video on how to fix it, and fix it.

@dvandenbord What are all those 13f’s for? 🤣 For some people the index-only mentality is more about making sure THEY are not outperformed (and I do think for many investors, indexing is a quite logical route)
