Writing this in my personal capacity, but I have been flying these types of aircraft for more than 20 years, with over 8,000 hours, and have reasonable familiarity with how the charter world operates. I feel compelled to post after seeing commentary about the Lear 60 crash, from missile strikes to DEI to critiquing this poor woman’s final radio calls.
That last part is what I find most troubling. She was the second-in-command (SIC), and while she was empowered to point out mistakes as part of good crew resource management, she was doing her job, communicating with ATC right to the end in a terrifying situation. She likely knew before many of those calls that she was going to die. I have heard final calls from friends, from military pilots with thousands of hours in fighter aircraft, and they are just as heartbreaking because they know the end is approaching.
I understand the public interest given the footage and audio. But you do not know the aircraft’s maintenance history, whether there was a structural failure, if any failure was induced by turbulence, overspeed, or overcontrol, or everything happening in that cockpit. I am sure weather will be part of the investigation, but beyond that, it is speculation. The charter industry routinely hires commercial pilots very early in their careers to gain experience alongside an ATP-qualified captain before they move up to the airlines. She would still have the appropriate training, qualifications, and checkouts by an FAA examiner or designee.
Let people investigate, learn, and share the facts. Be respectful to those who perished and the families who carry their memories. God bless them and their loved ones.

É por essa razão que apps “cinza” de WhatsApp ganham terreno. Essas cobranças são inviáveis. Isso pq não falamos dos impostos, que deixam a conta ainda mais salgada. Os grandes até pagam, mas os médios e pequenos fogem para alternativas “não oficiais”.

Marcos “diabo loiro” Lisboa:
“A relação entre o descontrole fiscal e a política social decorre de um problema bem mais profundo
no Brasil.
Temos uma incapacidade de realizar diagnósticos sobre os temas de política pública; desenhar, com técnica, as soluções; avaliar os resultados com independência; corrigir e
aperfeiçoá-las.
O resultado é que novas políticas vão sendo adicionadas para realizar o mesmo objetivo. Foram duas versões do Minha Casa, Minha Vida, e o déficit habitacional está relativamente estável
há 18 anos.
Já estamos no terceiro Desenrola em poucos anos, e o BC anuncia endividamento recorde. Os recursos para educação têm aumentado seguidamente há décadas, mas o aprendizado dos
estudantes brasileiros continua no fim da fila entre países semelhantes, como medido pelo Pisa.
Já tivemos três tentativas de viabilizar uma indústria naval no Brasil, seguidamente renovamos recursos públicos para que a Zona Franca de Manaus se tornasse sustentável, ou que a renda do Nordeste convergisse para a do Sudeste.
O fracasso das iniciativas não levou à revisão das
medidas.
Pelo contrário, foram ampliadas. O resultado é o empacotamento de seguidas medidas com objetivos semelhantes, fracassos semelhantes, e gastos crescentes sem benefícios relevantes para a população. Um Estado que gasta muito e gasta mal”

today, we introduce a little mischief to the world.
for four years, we’ve been brewing real brain cells on electrodes to understand how they compute. now, we’ve turned those discoveries into a video model anyone can use.
from 0.5¢ a second, mischief 1 is at least 5x faster than its base and the cheapest image-to-video model on @fal and @OpenRouter. soon to be on @awscloud marketplace.
it’s not a delusion anymore. biocompute is real, commercial and this is just the beginning.
happy halloween.

A ‘hello world’ milestone for Project Suncatcher 🚀
After launching our prototype satellite a few weeks ago, we’ve now successfully sent a command up to orbit, booted up the TPU, ran the prompt, and received our first complete response back on earth - a haiku!

If you look closely enough, breakthroughs in everything are accelerating exponentially.
An exponential always starts off looking small.
this might be my last normal tweet before biotech goes vertical
i'm not a whistleblower. I don't work at Lilly, Novo or any of the big labs
but there is a massive shift happening in human biology right now.
it's sitting in press releases and almost nobody reads them
the last 6 months alone:
- a once-daily pill roughly doubled median survival in metastatic pancreatic cancer (13.2 vs 6.6 months)
- a one-time gene editing infusion cut hereditary angioedema attacks 87%, and 62% of patients stayed attack-free and off all other prevention for 6 months
- a one-time gene edit for cholesterol dropped LDL up to 62%, and it held for over a year
- a personalized mrna vaccine beat keytruda alone in a 1,137 patient melanoma phase 3
- retatrutide hit ~28% weight loss in a phase 3
- an ai-designed drug entered phase 3
- a pill that regrows hair passed its second phase 3
- an immunotherapy that could let some rectal cancer patients skip surgery, chemo and radiation just got fda approved
- a man lived 271 days off dialysis on a pig kidney
- human cells were caught passing chromosome-sized chunks of DNA to their neighbors, and it changes how the neighbors behave
we are on the verge of an era where the human body is a software problem and the update cycle gets shorter everyday
stick around, it's going to get weird

Se você quiser entender a distância dos EUA em termos de riqueza.
A Forbes lista ~270 bilionários em reais.
O UBS Wealth Report aponta que existem 4218 indivíduos no Brasil com patrimônio superior a $30MUsd
Essa é a faixa de "Ultra High Net Worth"
O IPO da Antropic, que está projetado para sair a $2T, ou 40% da riqueza total do Brasil, pode criar potencialmente 5200 novos UHNW
O IPO da SpaceX criou o mesmo número.
Evidentemente, estes 2 IPOs, mais o da OpenAI, não são banais.
Mas na prática, os EUA controlam ~60% do mercado de ações global. Incluindo aí empresas como o Nubank, criado por um colombiano, um americano e uma brasileira, com funding americano e que é ligado na NASDAQ.
Who actually gets rich if Anthropic lists at $2 trillion?
The S-1 filed on Monday lets us answer from the filing itself.
The reported target is $1.5T to $2T, listing the week of November 16. The filing implies about 16.9B fully diluted shares. So $2T works out to roughly $118 a share.
The cap table at $2T:
- $199B for the 7 controlling co-founders, about 10%
- $28B for Ben Mann, if his stake matches theirs
- $100B for the Anthropic Public Benefit Fund, 5%
- $331B in employee options and RSUs, about 17% , That pool covers about 5,300 employees, an average of $62M each.
- But when you joined matters enormously.
The S-1 shows how much equity was granted each year, and at what price. [
Headcount went from about 300 to 500 in late 2023, to 940 at end 2024, to 5,300 now.
Match the two, and here is roughly how many people made what at $2T:
- $110M to $400M each: ~300 to 500 people hired by 2023
- $200M to $300M each: ~440 to 640 hired in 2024
- $70M to $95M each: ~1,360 hired in 2025
- $10M to $20M each: ~3,000 hired in 2026
So about 940 people hired by the end of 2024 average nine figures. Everyone hired since averages eight figures.
The 2024 class is the surprise. That year Anthropic granted 1.28B options at $1.30 a share. At $118, that one year of grants is worth about $133B.
Then there is the tender. In April, holders could sell at $25.91 a share. Investors lined up $6B, but only $4.7B sold.
Weeks later, Series H priced at $58.90 a share. At $2T, the people who held would be up 4.6x. And Dario and Daniela Amodei were among the sellers.
The 7 founders have pledged 80% of their equity to charity. That is about $159B at $2T. But the S-1 says the pledges are not legally binding.
As escolas privadas do CE fazem um trabalho extraordinário com esses alunos. Não estou falando que são excelentes, eu tenho minhas opiniões contrárias. Mas pra quem quer fazer prova, tem que estudar nelas! A preparação é ótima.
