@felixhhaas AI Deck

I one-shotted a full slide deck in Lovable 🔥 A lot of founders still build slides in PowerPoint. But with AI, that feels super outdated tbh. Why would you build a powerpoint deck if you can build an interactive app that’s responsive, smart, and adaptable. If you use AI: → Everything is automatically animated + feels premium → You can get a full deck with one prompt. → Works on all screen sizes and is super dynamic. → You can share a link instead of sending files → See who viewed it, and measure analytics. I created a guide with all my prompt templates for building slides with AI. Want access? Comment “AI Deck” and I’ll share it with you.

We’re excited to announce the upcoming release of a new video course, “How to Think About Risk with Howard Marks.” The series will be available on Oaktree’s website and YouTube channel on September 12. Preview the introduction here:

When an athlete is told to run at 85% they run faster than if they're told to run at 100%. It's called the 85% rule and here's why it works: Carl Lewis was a 9 time Olympic gold medalist who was known as a master finisher but a slow starter. He began races 2nd to last but usually ended up finishing first. It became known that he's wasn't performing at full throttle. He was going at 85% the whole time. Why 85%? When you have your best performances it's never when you're trying your hardest. Instead the task usually feels easy & effortless. Going at 85% is a mindset about relaxation & performing at a high level while being in flow. It's about pacing, form & finishing. At 85% you're not striving or straining by operating at the very limit of your ability. You have room to think, focus & adapt. Applying the 85% rule helps you balance intensity while being focused & relaxed. Here's a few example of how to do it: At work: Instead of going full throttle, take your time, release the pressure & focus. Put an emphasis on optimizing your systems & adopt a mentality of expending 85% of your mental energy towards a task. Your perception of energy is the biggest component to your productivity. In your diet: Instead of trying to be perfect aim to get 85% of your food choices right. This takes the pressure off of you and gets you away from an "all or nothing" mindset. You want to be adaptable to any situation and hitting 85% is enough to get your body in shape. In your workouts: Instead of going to failure for every exercise aim for 85% intensity so you can focus on good form & keep your body injury free. We have a rule to keep 1-2 reps in the tank when lifting and this fits perfectly into it. Keys to the 85% rule: 1) Relax 2) Focus on form 3) Set your mind to 85% intensity 4) Work just below your maximum threshold 5) Stop when you feel close to 100% of your mental/physical capacity Instead of putting the pressure by trying to go 100 aim for 85% instead. Doing so might help you unlock new levels of performance.

The Most Iconic Interview Of Young Warren buffett

appreciate all the kind words on this new lal' dude. thankful to have the opportunity to be a small part of this amazing community. this is the first PFP i have ever bought and it is a really long time coming. from the time i learned of NFTs this project has always stood out to me as being an insane story. the fact that this ridiculously innovative artwork was GIVEN AWAY years ago and at the time almost nobody cared, but that this idea then eventually spawned an entire ASSET CLASS, to me is just beyond comprehension. I have watched in awe as this project changed the way we think about identity and ownership. i believe this is a historic work from both a technological and artistic perspective and it's influence on NFTs and this space is already undeniable. and also thank you also to everyone who helped in my search for the right punk. i wanted to get something with very recognizable features that to me embodied the spirit of punks and that i could build a story around through the everydays. i can't wait to connect and learn from more members of this incredible community, more on that very soons. ;) TLDR; LFGGGGGGGGG, fun times ahead!! <3
