Man injured playing real-life Frogger

Him funding many effective people working on big ideas at once is probably more effective than him doing one idea himself.

Let's say he wins. Execution of spending billions to win an election is actually very hard. When you look at Bloomberg's tactics, he's been playing the game for a very, very long time. He is on another level from your other billionaires. Everyone is making it seem like you can just be rich and clone tactics or something and boom, election yours.

I checkout playlists of artists I like and go down that rabbit hole. I never have gotten stuck in a genre. Quite diverse.

Tbh, I haven't seen a real-life example that perfectly clones this method but I've adopted parts of the system that makes sense for my own workflow. I think that's how it should be approached. Luhmann developed this in a non-digital world after all.

Why We Get Fat by Gary Taubes is a good start. It explains the high-level science of fat regulation well and can deep dive further with references. Gives a good history of bad nutrition advice. There's a bias towards low carb, high fat diet (popular variant is keto).

I'm thankful to live in a country that respects my basic human rights. Having met those less fortunate, I've realized I've taken this for granted way too long. Birth is the greatest randomizer to your life.

Hiding likes to avoid bias towards "liking" a post is good. Preventing likes is not good. This seems like a good balance - still allows for ppl to unbiasedly like and for the algos to try to send me good stuff.

Don't tell this to Tony Hsieh who according to himself in his book went off to the mountains while Zappos was burning down. Turned out ok I guess.

It seems like CCTV is just not used at all in US - I haven't noticed any. Maybe it's because there's no good infrastructure for it. Flock's stuff seems to be wireless and solar-powered(?), and sounds like in general very affordable. Guessing price point matters. The folks who have $$, probably have security gates installed.
