Also, once I start feeling something come up I drink a sachet of vitamin C booster (which has an array of other stuff including b12 and zink) that seems to really pick me up.
Running outside versus the gym. I run 2-5km every other day, but I go outside. I just have like a shirt/sweater/down jacket on as layers to keep warm since it gets between -10 and 5C during the day. Extra sweating makes me feel great.
This looking away is very Dutch but the underlying sense was that there was always this idea that crime kills crime, and people not involved were never damaged. Once a guy got shot and killed down the street of my place, and soon reports started coming that they were involved in the drug trade. Most of the people on my block were like “oh yeah.. that guy.. not an issue was selling all the time.”
With the recent murders on innocent people, we can see that this is no longer the case and something has to be done. But even in high profile cases key witnesses are being murdered days before they take the stand. It’s clear that the government doesn’t have a grasp on this situation and the massive security required for everyone involved is the consequence of this idea. This particular trial seems to be going in the direction of a conviction which is good, but these guys have made enough money to bend anything to there will, and going to prison is not going to stop these guys, especially the type of prisons we have in the Netherlands, and how violent this guys have shown themselves to be.
All that said, we have a long way ahead of us. I can see the digitizations and improvements is labeling making things hard in the port of Rotterdam. But this is one of the largest ports in the world, and it’s easy to pick up something unseen even with the best measures. Demand side management could be an option, but the upper classes love their cocaine apparently.
I can see it getting better, to the old state of things… but the crime will always get smarter as long there is money to be made.
Definitely Mark defies markets and people are pulling out. Estimate forecast revenues are used to determine future value in the short term. That 100 value are the people believing in the long potential and existing value.
If Mark is right and the browser is the past, and googles are the future (what does a future like that smell like? - unbox therapy) he could become even more wealthier, if he is wrong (most certainly he is, 3D tv didn’t make it) fb will continue to decline. Until the value is the core business minus ceo risk minus fun projects.
Growth is basically exponential because once payback times hit a certain threshold people start buying. A friend of mine is making 10/12k in sales commissions every month going door to door selling solar. This is a very lucrative business.
The update at the bottom is kind of interesting. All browsers are equally fast, which makes sense because wasm should speak directly to the hardware more easily than javascript.
For those with that work flow this is really cool app.
[1082B for 2014-2020, 4B/1082B*6y~2.2%]
A loss of 4B is a decrease of revenue by 1.5% for google.
[googles revenue was 256B in 2021 4/256~1.5%]
Sapients was absolutely mind blowing and before it’s time. Many ideas in that book still resonate through the zeitgeist. Still worth reading.
I recognize that as a manager at the a rising startup. Even if the pressure is high, saying no to this weeks deadline but hitting it 100% next week, and not have it come back 2 months later as an issue ultimately gets you further.
