Let me keep it simple to explain how crazy this is. 1/ you put everything you earned to start a company 2/ the investors/owners create a comp package and majority agree that ONLY if you create $X amount of value within 10 yrs, you’ll be compensated $Y 3/ however, if you do not create $X amount of value, you get paid NOTHING, literally $0 4/ you work your ass off and create $X amount of value within 4 years 5/ a judge rejects the comp package saying it was not fair 6/ the investors/owners re-vote for a second time to re-instate the comp package for you to get paid and majority vote that you should be compensated $Y 7/ same judge rejects it again, saying it is not fair 8/ you are getting paid nothing for your honest, hard work (as of now…) Is it just me, or does this sound absolutely ridiculous? Does this make you want to start a company in the US? This is literally what’s happening to Elon Musk at Tesla right now!

Bezos is like “I think maybe my journalism company should try to do journalism in a professional not unprofessional way” and the rest of the media is like “wow look at how corrupt and cowardly he is.”

Playing billiards with the Snapchat AR spectacles on. There's a lens that overlays where I need to hit the ball to make the shot. Is this cheating or nah? 🤓 (Too bad I scratched anyway)

Something I taught 11 yo: When you learn a new word, as long as it's not merely a fancy synonym of a word you already know, you usually also get to learn a new idea.

At some point, there needs to be a revision of the UN bodies. Problem is that those with excess power don’t want to give it up. India not having a permanent seat on the Security Council, despite being the most populous country on Earth, is absurd. Africa collectively should also have a permanent seat imo.

If you cannot explain something in simple terms, you don't understand it.

In 2013, I took a class taught by Prof Strang. At the time he had been teaching at MIT for 52 years. He continued teaching for another 10 years. Yesterday he gave his final lecture youtube.com/live/lUUte2o2S… He taught me how to like Linear Algebra and how invaluable teaching is.
