JESUS IS THE ULTIMATE HEALER! ❤️‍🔥 A young boy was going through unbearable struggles with his health. At the end of January, he was diagnosed with liver cancer, which caused his liver to be enlarged to the point where he could feel it on the outside of his abdomen. He had also been suffering from osteopenia — a juvenile form of osteoporosis that robs nutrients from the muscles and bones — had bones so fragile they would easily fracture. His parents faced the heart-wrenching challenge of trying to help him avoid the pain, driving slowly at 40 mph and carefully avoiding potholes to prevent his pained cries. Even the simple act of sitting up straight in a chair brought him agony due to his spine and shoulders protruding outward. 💔 But after Evangelist Ankit prayed for the sick, something miraculous happened. His mom turned to him with unwavering faith and told him get up and do what he couldn't do before. Without hesitation, the boy lept out of his chair, ran across the sanctuary, and opened the door! His mom followed, only to find him weeping on his face in awe — ALL HIS PAIN WAS GONE! 🤯💥 And God did more than that! His stomach was flat, meaning the inflammation caused by the cancer in his liver went away! HIS LIVER WAS HEALED OF CANCER‼️ “I have been waiting for this for so long,” he cried, “This has been too much, and it’s finally done.” Tears of joy and overwhelming gratitude streamed down the faces of the entire family. ❤️ With one touch from Jesus, the course of this boy’s life completely changed! Thank you, Lord! 🙌🔥 #ankitrambabu #theepicgospel

New longevity therapy started: full-body focused shock wave therapy. As far as I know, it's first in world. Goal: improve my exercise recovery, heal inflammation and calcifications, reverse chronic damage and activate regeneration.

When I sold my startup in 2020, I didn’t know what to do with the money I made So I A/B tested it: I gave half to a large private bank to invest and invested the other half myself Writing an article about where this stands 5 years later, let me know if you wanna read it 👀

@ChrisRocas @ankurnagpal I believe if vanguard advisor manages your funds (0.3% aum) they will do this automatically if funds over 500k

This is why direct indexing makes sense for people who invest in a lot in the stock market An S&P index fund would net you a 20%+ gain in 2024 A direct indexed S&P allocation would get you a similar gain but you could harvest losses of all these companies that are down a ton

I wish as a startup and venture community we talked more about capital efficiency. Even within the aggregate data the returns to founders and investors in my experience are concentrated with the most efficient.

I humbly suggest that if you get enough resources for 2 boats, you launch 1 and see how it fails, and then use the retained funds for the 2nd boat. As a consumer package goods (CPG) founder who has built and scaled a profitable company from scratch, I have observed the following: the #1 failure mode of other CPG companies is not saving enough money to learn and revise from their first market tests. Crucially, this is NOT because they did not raise enough money to do so based on their initial cost estimates to test initial hypothesis, it is because they allowed costs to fill whatever budget they could obtain.

⛵ Project Bob Update: Day 2 Two boats secured. An incredibly generous donation from @DanielMavlyutov is going to let us build dueling boats. The race is on. This means we can take a bit more risk en route, taking one through storms to get the wildest footage possible. Once again, I'm blown away by the support from the Twitter universe. I had no idea there was such a willingness to back at this level. Thank you all, am truly humbled by the conviction and support. Manufacturing update. The hull geometry needs to get released to the CNC shop. We're buying the foam, and will cut on the weekend after it arrives. Here is an overview of how that's going to work. There is some risk in this approach, but I don't want to waffle on this for a month. Will we regret it? Possibly? This is the surfboard type approach, doing a wet layup with 6oz eglass twill directly on the plug. It will mean that the keel is captive after the glassing occurs. There will be access to the motor enclosure from the top side, under the solar panel. This should be sufficient, as the bearing shafts should never need adjustment after initial installation. The avionics pod will have a slide out tray, about 6ft long, carrying the batteries and electronics. It does appear that we can get a conformal acrylic camera pod pointed towards the prop. This would be awesome for diagnosis on propulsion issues, as well as whalespotting. Also entertaining the idea of a redundant and independent small drive pod in the rear. Would only be used to limp to land in case of a main prop failure.

@bryan_johnson Maybe one day the world will celebrate the first couple to achieve 1000 years of marriage/love/union. What a nice thought to replace the rage bait.

We’re going to circumnavigate the world with a droneship Andrew’s next hobby project is here. Projectbob.xyz The goal is to complete an around the world ocean trip, autonomously navigating 25,000 miles over the course of one year. The droneship will be streaming to X live via Starlink through the whole journey. Will it work? Who knows. Do we have a specific goal? Not really. We're just here for the grand adventure and the inevitable memes.

Elon Musk@elonmusk·
A CO2 tax, properly applied, would change the tragedy of the commons that is the steadily rising CO2 ppm level. If we’re going to tax anything, then we should prioritize taxing the potentially bad over the potentially good, as we do with alcohol & cigarettes over vegetables & fruits I disagree with those who view the climate risk as catastrophic in the 5 to 10 year range, but the long term risk is very real, even if one simply considers quality of life at a given CO2 level. The indoor CO2 ppm level is significantly above the outdoor average. This means ~800ppm for ~400ppm ambient. Above 1000ppm, people are noticeably negatively affected. Above 2000ppm, it gets really painful.

You can travel anywhere in the galaxy in 12 years shipboard time with a 1g constant acceleration Bussard Ramjet, thanks to time dilation and the energy density of fusion propulsion.
