remembering to always focus on improving myself, and not to be distracted or sidetracked. no yelling to be heard. i will be the best version of myself and the world will have no choice but to take notice

going into @AKEndfield completely blind and i did NOT expect this quality of graphics and cutscenes, like how did we go from 2D animation and tower defense to borderline AAA-quality game here?? this is at least on part with games like Scarlet Nexus, and the STORY OMG

Holy #TaxiDriver3Ep14 had the most insane ending scene ever. I've literally watched that EMP go off 4 times in a row

🗣️ Zlatan Ibrahimović: “The last time I cried, was when I didn't receive my paycheck and wages from Malmo FF. I wrote to the league board and asked them to deduct every three points I won for Malmo FF. The board said 'My money was being paid to my parents because I was too young by law to receive an official salary'. I told the league board that I was also too young to be the top scorer and win Malmo a league title by law, so they must not be given my 3 points till I am old enough. The next day my money was transferred to my account. I am older than the law.”

Korean here. I know the answer to this. There are rich Koreans, but they’re relatively rare and almost all of them are people who dared to expand outside the Korean market and system. If you stay fully inside the Korean system, a lot of your money goes into keeping up with status games, trend-chasing, and social signaling, and whatever you do earn gets taxed aggressively. If your company starts doing well, competitors quickly copy you, or a larger company with more leverage tries to squeeze you out. The ecosystem is brutally fast, but also brutally convergent. I once had a close friend who was a senior developer at Meta explain his impression of the difference between Korean companies and Silicon Valley companies, and it stuck with me. In Korea, our demographics and culture is very homogeneous (although recently it is slowly becoming alot more diverse). Korean companies optimize for speed and execution within a very tight cultural context. Everyone shares similar assumptions, tastes, and expectations, so products can be built and iterated incredibly fast. You don’t need endless A/B tests or debates about edge cases because most users respond the same way. When something works, it spreads instantly. In Silicon Valley, the situation is almost the opposite. Teams are made up of people from wildly different cultural, social, and economic backgrounds, and their users are even more diverse. Intuition doesn’t work as well, so companies are forced to rely on data, experimentation, abstraction, and systems that can generalize across very different types of people. It’s slower and messier, but it produces products that scale globally. This is probably why Korea isn’t richer than people expect. When something “hits” in Korea, it hits fast and almost everywhere at once. But Korean companies rarely develop the perspective needed to systematically produce global hits, the only way to make truly massive money. Once something works locally, it gets copied immediately, the total addressable market is small, and margins collapse. Korea is incredibly good at execution and speed. The West is better at building things that survive diversity and scale. That difference compounds over time.
