Liberals have guns too, they just don't use them as penis extensions.

MAGA pretending that the entire country is fuming right now is so cringe Most Americans aren’t invested in your meaningless political theater There will be no civil war. Nobody in the real world is outraged over Trump. They just woke up and are currently clocking in not giving a single fuck about these show trials one way or another

I take whey, you don't. See the difference?
Whey Protein is probably the WORST fitness supplement ever, for many reasons, but IMO, chief reason being that it activates mTOR, a dangerous Ageing Enzyme, because of the high Leucine content in Whey . STAY AWAY FROM WHEY!!!

On the Andrew Huberman situation: 1) I can’t say I am surprised, nor do I care, that an unmarried, jacked, rich guy was dating multiple women 2) I think its more sad someone at NY Mag was paid a salary to write the piece

Play a fun game next time you’re at the gym. It’s called “spot the boomer that recently started TRT and can’t handle it” Couple hints: - they like to follow around the youngest girls there - they slam everything as hard as they can - never do an exercise properly - start muscle-fking the weirdest supersets in the world while they make eye-contact with you in the mirror. Even more insufferable than the broccoli heads

For the first time since Axie overtook CryptoKitties in early 2019, a game has ,at least momentarily, passed Axie in some engagement and traction metrics. Congratulations @pixels_online.

That's called "progress" in software development!

Underrated programming practice: never cheat with names. If it's an organization ID, it's `organization_id`. Not `org_id` and not `id`. Always and everywhere. If you have multiple in scope, prefix the name adequately, e.g. `filter_by_organization_id`.

We have transitioned from “Dovish Hikes” to a “Hawkish Pause” Pause for a moment to ponder about how stupid all this is 🙈🥹🌳

You're fine. It means you are a human with other hobbies and interests, and your whole life doesn't revolve around development. Also, the fact that you're not arguing over stupid things shows that you're mature. If you're a developer reading this - you don't need to have your whole life revolving around development. Life's more than that. Enjoy it.

Same. In the beginning, I was impressed by this type of "smart" code. I also tried to write code like that because I thought it looked cool, and that's how "smart" people do it. Nowadays, I prefer the more verbose code that's clear and easier to read & understand. Mention: Apply common sense. It doesn't mean that I prefer verbose code just for the sake of it or that I never use shorter code if it doesn't affect legibility. Also, don't fixate on these examples from the picture. They're some examples to illustrate the point.

Surprise, surprise… July’s 187k job number was just revised down to only 157k. Every. Single. Month.
As I said, every month’s job number has been revised down the following month. Assume this 187k will be too. (@zerohedge)

SUMMARY OF POWELL'S JACKSON HOLE SPEECH (8/25/23): 1. We are "prepared" to raise further if needed 2. The Fed will not change 2% inflation target 3. "Will proceed carefully" on whether to hike again 4. Lowering inflation will require softer labor markets 5. Above trend growth could warrant more rate hikes It seems like a long PAUSE is coming.

I guess will find out if all this hard work and analysis was worth it. OPEX will be over, rates are higher, inflation stickier, the Fed was more hawkish, liquidity should decline, and the dollar looks like it still has room to rise. I don't have anything else left, to be honest, I'm tired. 😫

The book Outlive by @PeterAttiaMD is remarkable. First off, I have no financial relationship to the book whatsoever. I love the book because it’s clear and actionable. It provides both data-based motivation and the protocols for specific ways to exercise, eat, do personal analysis etc. for mental and physical health. Outlive is the best book on human health that I am aware of.

If the @federalreserve doesn't raise rates in June, I think they have to be open to the possibility they may have to raise rates by 50 basis points in July, if economy continues to stay way hot & if inflation figures are robust. Tonight. 6pm ET. WallStreetWeek on @BloombergTV
