You don’t listen. You’re an ineffective leader. You can’t recruit great talent. You’re going to have to pay every athlete. You can’t measure sleep non-invasively. It’s too expensive to research. Athletes are a small market. The product costs too much to make. The product costs too much to sell. Your valuation is too high. Consumers aren’t going to want it. Hardware is too hard. You should measure steps. Fitbit is going to kill you. You can’t build a marketing engine. You can’t raise enough money. You need a real CEO. Google is going to kill you. You can’t be a subscription.

Nice view of the core stage separation!

Liftoff. The Artemis II mission launched from @NASAKennedy at 6:35pm ET (2235 UTC), propelling four astronauts on a journey around the Moon. Artemis II will pave the way for future Moon landings, as well as the next giant leap — astronauts on Mars.

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

The Qing Dynasty, 1644-1912, was founded by the Manchu people. The Manchu were steppe nomads who conquered China. They ate meat and drank fermented mare's milk. They were taller and physically stronger than the Han Chinese they ruled. The Manchu knew exactly why this was. Their traditional diet of meat and dairy had made them formidable enough to conquer the world's most populous empire. So when they took power, they faced a strategic question: Do we teach the Han Chinese our dietary secrets and risk creating a physically stronger population that outnumbers us 100 to 1? Or do we keep them on rice and let the physical disparity remain our insurance policy? They chose insurance. The Qing court maintained Manchu dietary traditions privately while publicly reinforcing Han cultural disdain for dairy. Chinese Confucian texts already viewed dairy as barbaric food of nomads. The Qing did nothing to correct this. Instead, they encouraged it. Dairy was framed as culturally inappropriate for civilized Han Chinese. Only crude steppe peoples drank milk beyond infancy. Refined Chinese culture had evolved past such primitive nutrition. Meanwhile, Qing emperors and their Manchu bannermen continued their traditional diet. Historical records show the Qing court consumed massive amounts of dairy, meat, and fermented products. The physical difference was maintained through the entire dynasty. Manchu bannermen remained taller and more robust than their Han subjects. Not because of genetics but because of diet. When the Qing fell in 1912, dairy consumption remained taboo in Chinese culture. Even today, 90% of Chinese adults are lactose intolerant not because they can't digest it genetically but because they've had no cultural reason to maintain the enzyme into adulthood. The Manchu conquered China and then used dietary culture to maintain their physical advantage for 268 years. They knew that dairy and meat created stronger populations. They just made sure only they consumed it. The legacy persists. Chinese culture still views dairy with suspicion while the descendants of steppe nomads across Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, and Tibet maintain dairy-heavy diets and remain physically distinct from Han populations. The Qing won the empire and then used food to keep it. The greatest trick they pulled was making it seem like culture rather than control.
