I too have less than $850 million in cash

The likelihood that he’s dead is just really, really high

Wife: “What did your teacher remember about September 11th?” Nine-year-old: “She was only four then, she doesn’t remember it at all.”

So the “Chase unlimited money glitch” that went viral on TikTok was: * Writing yourself a giant check * Mobile depositing that check * Going to an ATM to withdraw cash before the check cleared …Literally just committing check fraud

John Mulaney getting on stage and mercilessly mocking everyone at Salesforce’s Dreamforce conference is one of the funniest things I’ve ever read

Christmas gift from my grandma this year: A 380-page, full-color cookbook with all of her favorite recipes she’s collected over the past 70+ years. She spent the past few years typing out her hundreds of handwritten recipe cards and taking photos of everything she makes.

Programmers can literally just sit down at a computer and create value for people out of thin air

Am I crazy or are real-time translation and Duolingo… not at all competing products?

This is one of my favorite threads on X. People who don’t lift dismissively mocking average people for not being able to curl 50kg (110 pounds). And jacked gym bros explaining how extreme it is to be able to do so.

I was very very sad when I learned the Domino’s pizza tracker is entirely fake (based solely on time since order), but I have to commend whatever engineer suggested doing that instead of spending $200 million building out the infrastructure to support it being real

Paying taxes hits different when you see just how many places it gets blown for nothing. $100 million here, $500 million there, $5 billion over there, $300 million there. People work their entire lives to pay $500k in taxes, and it’s a rounding error on one wasteful program.

I wish I could have been a fly on the wall for when the Google team realized, “You know what, if you look at the cumulative number of miles of roads on the planet… we could actually just mount a camera on a car and drive down every single one of them.”

Do we have to pretend like a murdered out black nearly silent nearly indestructible car that goes 0-60 in 2.6 seconds isn’t cool?

The entirety of the Joe Rogan <> Marc Andreeseen podcast is fascinating, but please, please listen to this part. The abuse of power within unaccountable (and arguably unconstitutional) federal agencies has become so extreme the stories are almost unbelievable.

Six-year-old: “Dad why do you have to go to work?” Me: “If I didn’t go to work who would buy your transformers?” Six-year-old: “Dad the money for transformers doesn’t come from your work. I pay for those by doing extra chores.”

Six-year-old: “Dad, do you have $100?” Me: “…Yes.” Six-year-old: “That means between your $100 and my $4 we can buy a water slide!”

Wait I thought Trump just pulled up at a random McDonald’s and they put him on the payroll for a few hours as a fry cook. You mean to tell me this was an organized event?

You people are overreacting. It’s not like taxpayers are sending $8.1 million/year to Politico. Politico has a premium tier that costs an average of $34,000/year and federal agencies have used taxpayer funds to purchase 236 subscriptions.

I took out $73,280 in student loans and made interest-only payments like clockwork for 15 years. Now they’re telling me I somehow still owe $73,280? How is that possible?

By the time a man is 40 he must choose an intellectual hobby. These are the only options: 1. World War II 2. Genghis Kahn 3. Greeks/Romans 4. Napoleon 5. Revolutionary + Civil War 6. Model trains I don’t make the rules.

I honestly would expect that 99% of their parents would pardon their kids if they could. I would.

Christmas gift from my grandma this year: A 380-page, full-color cookbook with all of her favorite recipes she’s collected over the past 70+ years. She spent the past few years typing out her hundreds of handwritten recipe cards and taking photos of everything she makes.

Everyone is ripping on this girl for feeling entitled to a more impressive job just because of her degrees. But some of the responsibility should be shared by the people who told her for 20 years if she just got degrees people would be begging to hire her.

So in a strange turn of events it turns out that, despite having a funny-looking swing, Trump is indeed a very, very good golfer. Definitely capable of winning club tournaments and legitimately a single-digit handicap.

I don’t say this lightly: Zohran Mamdani’s proposal for New York City to drive down food prices by having the city run its own grocery stores is the most economically delusional thing I’ve seen in a long time. What planet do these people live on?

So… if medical debt isn’t included in credit score, is there any incentive whatsoever to pay it off? And if that’s true, won’t default rates skyrocket? And if default rates skyrocket, won’t most providers simply stop serving people who can’t pay upfront?

What's the right job title for a startup when you want a super scrappy person who can basically do whatever is asked, is self-sufficient, and learns quickly? But spans multiple departments/roles. Asking for a friend.

“Nah I don’t even use that social network anymore.” “Why?” “IBM and Comcast stopped posting there.”

Cool new way to make 750 the minimum credit score to get a credit card

I don’t know who is telling these kids that a generic degree is equivalent to experience or makes you qualified for high-paying roles, but it simply does not

Name one thing you can do with a $430 Billion net worth you can’t do with a $215 Billion net worth

New mortgage math is brutal. Say you buy a $1m house with $200k down at a 7% rate ($800k mortgage). Over the first three years you pay $193k ($5,322/mo.) After those $193k of payments your $800k mortgage is now at $774.5k. You paid $166k in interest, $25.5k in principle.
