How often would you prefer to be paid dividends?

@jaynitx @elonmusk one in a billion for sure, thank you for all your work

Jordan Peterson on Elon Musk: "My mind is a storm… I don’t think most people would want to be me" "There was a recent interview with Elon Musk where he said something... 'My mind is a storm. I don't think most people would want to be me. They may think they would want to be me... but they don't. They don't know. They don't understand.'" Peterson explains: "One of the downsides to high-level genius is what you might describe as hypermania." On verbal fluency and creativity: "Here's a simple test. Write down as many four-letter words as you can in three minutes that begin with 'T.' Or write down as many words as you can in three minutes that begin with 'S.' There's quite a powerful correlation between the sheer number of words you produce and your lifetime creative achievement... especially in the artistic and verbal domains." He distinguishes: "That's different than vocabulary. Vocabulary is how many words you understand. Fluency is how many words you can produce in a given amount of time." The variance is staggering: "People vary to a degree you can hardly imagine. Some people... if you get them to do the four-letter test in three minutes... they'll write down 12 words. Some will write down 150. The ones writing down 150... their minds are going at a hypomanic rate. They're just thinking five times as fast. Without any remission whatsoever." On when it goes too far: "When that gets completely out of control, you have someone who's manic. There's nothing fun about manic. That's where the word 'maniac' comes from. Someone who's manic has a thousand different plans... each of which are one sentence long... that they're hyper-enthusiastic about. They'll spend every cent of their money pursuing them. And things just go immediately to hell." He applies it: "That's the outer limit of pathology on the creative front. Someone like Musk who's clearly a genius... that's what he's contending with in his internal landscape. I'm not saying he's manic because I see no signs of that. But someone that creative is on that edge." On minds that move too fast: "Take someone like Ben Shapiro. It's very interesting to talk to Ben... Russell Brand is the same way. Shapiro speaks more rapidly than anyone I ever met. But if you're with him, you see very clearly that he's probably thinking five times that fast. And that's a lot." Peterson shares his own experience: "When I was writing Maps of Meaning... my first book... I had a very difficult time shutting off my mind. I was obsessed with that book. I was writing about 3 hours a day. Then I was thinking about the material for like 12 hours. And the thoughts came way faster than thinking. They probably came about as fast as I can read... about 1,200 words a minute. It was just nonstop thought for 16 hours a day." How he coped: "That's part of the reason I started lifting weights. If I was lifting heavy... thinking at 1,200 words a minute while I've got 100 pounds on my back... it was enough to shut it down. It was also one of the reasons I drank. That was another thing that would shut it off." On the price of genius: "The price that people pay to be the person they admire is such an interesting frame. 'My mind is a storm. I don't think most people would want to be me.' The price you would have to pay in order to be me is not one you would want to pay." The interviewer pushes back: but you're one of the richest men on the planet, you get to release bulletproof cars and put rockets in space... Peterson: "Yeah, but what about all the baggage? He also appears to me to be hyper-conscientious. Musk isn't just a creative genius... he's also an extremely conscientious engineer. Really conscientious engineers have very interesting minds. When they understand something... they understand how to build it out of atoms. They understand it at every single level." On the rare combination: "Musk appears to me to be someone who's this rare combination of hyper-creative but also hyper-conscientious. And I know he works all the time." The interviewer asks: does that hypertrophied executive function help wrangle some of the diffuse creative energy? Peterson: "Yes. Definitely. Eric Weinstein is a good example... Eric is unbelievably creative but he's not particularly conscientious. I think he found an occupation where that works extremely well... he worked with Peter Thiel for quite a long time as his idea man." He contrasts: "Musk is hyper-creative and as far as I can tell hyper-conscientious. The conscientiousness does focus it. Lots of creative people aren't conscientious. There's no correlation between creativity and conscientiousness." The math: "If you're the most creative person in a thousand... and you're the most conscientious person in a thousand... you're one person in a million. Musk is probably more like one person in 100 million. Maybe more. Maybe a billion."

@ns123abc @alanknit Is there open bid for it right now?

🚨 TEXTS BETWEEN MUSK AND ZUCKERBERG JUST SHOWN IN COURT DECEMBER 13, 2024 Zuckerberg to Musk: "Meta sent a letter to the California AG supporting your lawsuit against OpenAI." FEBRUARY 3, 2025: Zuckerberg: offers DOGE security help for Musk's team Musk: ❤️ Musk: "Are you open to the idea of bidding on the OpenAI IP with me and some others?" Zuckerberg: "Want to discuss live?" Musk: "Will call in the morning" Zuckerberg didn't join. Seven days later, Musk's made the $97.4 billion bid for OpenAI alone. Musk testified today under oath: he made the bid "to stop them from stealing the charity."

@RepKeithSelf @TheWealthDr What about the unintended events or people that get saved from the drunk driver not being able to drive?

Imagine a woman fleeing an attacker—and her car won’t start because it thinks she’s impaired. Imagine a farmer injured on the job—his truck won’t start because it thinks he’s drunk. These are the unintended consequences of the Kill Switch mandate. Kill the Kill Switch.

@d_1awrence @Giovann35084111 I meant more like volume or $ of capital needed to get the returns cited and or keep up with the power law support.

@jptelos @Giovann35084111 The linear support line for the power law at the end of 2026 is c.200k 👀

This is where the supply shock is really going to hit hard and send Bitcoin's price parabolic. It's impossible for Strategy to accumulate 56,000 Bitcoin, every month, for the next 5 years and for the price to end at $232,532. We all use 25%-30% CAGR as a baseline when we're modelling future Bitcoin price projections, but you also have to factor in where we are in the cycle compared to prior years. That would represent just a 15% CAGR from 2021 to 2031 - an impossible return considering the modelled accumulation figures and predicted inflows into the network. For Bitcoin's 5-6 year CAGR to align to at least 25% by the end of 2026, Bitcoin's price will need to increase from it's $67k price to $163k - that represents a 143% gain from today's price. I don't doubt the volume that STRC, SATA and institutional demand is going to explode into Bitcoin in the coming years, but if we believe that to be true, the CAGR simply has to be far higher than base level figures. Remember - if you add $1 Trillion of capital into the Bitcoin network, its market cap increases by 4X. I think Bitcoin's price is going to melt faces in the next 18 months as its new natural supply continues to get absorbed at multiples of itself on a weekly basis. And because of that, I don't think Strategy ever reach half of what's being modelled in the example below. We're entering unchartered territory. The world has never, ever, seen how a truly scarce asset acts when there's infinite demand for it. But we're about to find out. Strap in. 🚀

Praying for @elonmusk to become a Christian.

Charlie Kirk wanted blockchain technology applied to the federal government. Full transparency. Every dime of spending tracked in real time on a public ledger. His framing was simple: "It is not the government's money. We are the sovereign. We earn the money and the government extracts it from us with our consent." If that's the relationship, then taxpayers have a right to see where every dollar goes. Day by day. Department by department. The technology already exists. Bitcoin proved a public, tamper-proof ledger works at global scale. Nobody can edit it after the fact. Nobody can hide a transaction. Apply that same infrastructure to federal spending and waste doesn't survive long. Nobody overspends when the ledger has an audience. The question was never whether we could do it. It's whether the people spending the money want you to see it.

@aaronburnett 100TW of compute per year would be 200 times the US economy EVERY YEAR. Dollars won’t even be used if we get to that point.

When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.

The British have never fully recovered from the economic damage Carney left them. Double digit inflation followed in his wake. Now it’s Canada’s turn.

@jcher78 Did you find any resolution?

You know what bothers me.. I know “about” Jesus but I don’t “know” him. How can I know him? How do I get to truly have a relationship with him? What defines a true relationship? This is what is running through my mind as I sit here drinking my coffee, trying to have a good day

@bryan_johnson This is awesome

I've measured my body a lot. I'm about to dwarf what we've done by building real-time continuous multi-omic monitoring and intervention. Cars drive themselves. Software writes itself. I'm building Autonomous Health. First for me, then for you. > Peptides in circulation (dose and efficacy in real time) > Gut and oral microbiome profiling > Transcriptomics and gene expression > Mitochondrial genome sequencing and mutational tracking > Real-time cell cultures > Longitudinal proteomics (heat shock response panel) > Inflammatory cytokine panels > Mitochondrial function, ROS, cell viability Continuous environmental monitoring including light, noise, air, water, pollutants. If you’re into this kind of stuff, come build with me. If you're building bioinfrastructure relevant to this, get in touch.

a lot can happen in 3 days.
