as bad as things have gotten in the past 4 days, they are going to get a lot worse before they get better. security leaders, never let a crisis go to waste: please go to your boards and ask for help right now. not for ai, for the basics. (we need to hold on for ~18 months.)

New Bitcoin ad just dropped
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Important context needed: Trump previously promised 2 dividends and never followed through.
In early 2025, Trump publicly backed a roughly $5,000 “DOGE dividend”
In November 2025, he promised a $2,000 “tariff dividend”

I’m a retired brain surgeon and I wanna tell you why you feel like life is passing by. I just need one minute to explain this to you so hang in there.
Repetitive daily routines stop the brain from recording clear detailed memories. When every day looks the same, your brain does not track time the same as a clock does. It tracks change. If nothing new happens then days, months, and years start to blur together.
This is know as Time compression. When life lacks variety, your brain compresses past days together, making it feel like time is sped up.
To stop feeling like life is passing you by, add new experiences to your life. Break routine habits, like changing your daily home routine, taking a different route to work, or trying a new hobby.
Schedule small trips or plan new adventures so your days do not blend together.
Practice mindfulness by staying fully focused on what you are doing right now and not trying to race off to the next task.
Keep a journal and write down happy memories or memorable parts of the day before you go to sleep.
Take deep, calm breaths when you feel anxious or rushed to return your focus to the moment.
You can and you will retrain your brain to not feel like life is passing you by by following these few simple measures.

It's never going to work
It's just a research demo
It's too hard
It's decades away
It works too poorly
It makes hands with six fingers
It can't do physics
Movements don't feel real
It all looks the same
It feels oversaturated
It's too hard to use
It's slop
It's too easy to use
It has no soul
It can't keep consistent characters
It can't do real audio
It's only good for memes
It can't do good voices
It can't do dialogue
It's never going to be used for real stories
It's just a few seconds
It can't hold a shot longer than a clip
It's just for experiments
It can't do good stories
It can't lip sync
It can't be directed
It's not 16-bit EXR
It's not 10- and 12-bit ProRes and HEVC
It's fine for previz, but never final pixels
It's never going to be used by real artists
No studio will ever touch it
It will never win awards
It has no emotion
It can't make you feel anything
Audiences will always be able to tell
People will never like it
It will never be able to entertain
It will ...

A full-page Bitcoin ad in today’s WSJ:
“The fringe phase is officially over.”
It argues that 1 in 4 Americans owns bitcoin, that it secures $1.25 trillion in wealth, powered the most successful ETF launch in history, and is now held on corporate and government balance sheets.
Imagine my happiness level seeing my youngest daughter's grade 7 report card containing 11 em dashes . What are we doing here.

If Condos aren’t selling at “market value”, then they aren’t priced at “market value”.
It’s really that simple.

Folks, the Canadian government DOES NOT HAVE ANY MONEY. They print money and inflate the Canadian currency to do these things. This 100% does increase your and my cost of living. It’s taxation without representation. Theft.
🇨🇦 Canada's PM Mark Carney just hustled Canadians with a new scheme that will subsidize an oversupply of real estate in Vancouver.
Instead of letting the market correct the prices, he's going to buy up vacant condos and turn them into "affordable housing."
What a nice bailout for greedy developers who are sitting on units they don't want to sell cheaply.

So, I've slept on it, and I am still incensed about this condo bailout.
Mining and Oil & Gas companies have to beg, BEG, to sell our natural resources, which pay Canadians billions in taxes and royalties.
And then the Feds give that money to condo developers who "don't want to sell at a loss".
Are you effing kidding me?
Anyway, let the BOC know I've solved the mystery of Canada's weak productivity!
