More and more for practical purposes I tend to believe that - sit tight - everybody is solving or capable of solving the Poincaré conjecture. Let me explain.

Granted some people are simple, but most are actually very gifted at what they do ; it's just that the type of engineering they do is different than yours (or mine, whatever). Besos says "there is a million types of inteligence".

Some are good at making dramas for example - and they'd beat you at that game every single day. Some others are good at, I dont know, working out.

Many people are very very good at playing dumb is actually my very point. And they love that. If you are observant, you'll see little clues that they are geniuses in some ways. It's just that they dont care about advancement. In itself it's a form of dumbness but beside that, they freaking good.

You can easily do x2 on your percieved intelligence and engineering capabilities of people. They way way better at what they do than meet the eye. Especially nowdays as they are educated.

It's very practical to think that way Ive found.

The rule is there is no rule. Life is fluid he says. You've got to pickup the little clues, use your intuition and your gut feelings.

This perfectly matches my experience of life. When you arrives in a situation with a premade plan and execute blindly, it often fails dramatically, even if on paper you did exactly what you were supposed to. Especially with people of course. You've got to go with the "flow", read the room, feel the air. Sometimes it almost feels magical. Even the light a particular day will be different and somehow, things are different - the people in the street, the mood of your boss, everything.

The great leaders are masters at that. I often think about the current China leader for example. It's just an example.

Do you picture what a person must pull off to get that seat? It's unimaginable. You've got to smell the "bullets" coming miles away before they're even shot, from a shooter you dont even know. Just on a hunch because that day, the light was different.

The consequences of KYC are way worse than that. You have to interact with someone in power when you make a payment, thats the bad part. Cause that someone now have a good occasion to hurt you (racism, discrimination, political opposition, wars, etc).

Im speaking from experience here. Moreover the rich and powerful makes payments the way they want lets not fool ourselves.

Now granted they catch some dirty shit with KYC but we'd like to see some report on the extent of that at least.

I think there were no strategy, they burnt a fuse instead.

There is some usefulness to those feelings - this announcement will probably have an impact on your life soon enough. But you cant let every button push and distant threat pull you down can you.

Also remember, life has its own ways: as far as you know, it could also be the beginning of the best days of your life.

Im surprised one can name names like that.

Exactly what I thought would be absolutely terrific: a robot commanded by voice that poses floor tiles. That's v1. V2 builds a house.

I can't think of any "toy" as exciting as this atm. Plus you pose the first tile of this and you're a trillionaire.

It's a bad, bad sign I agree. That said Id propose "someone may decide to pour sulphur in the stratosphere"

And may, as per the author says, save our asses while we get our shit together.

Now, granted, this is one of the craziest things Ive ever read in my life. And Im being proportionate here.

Seems to me Search must be yielding like crazy. Android is too. User trust is high. Youtube is booming even though tiktok.

I think the man is doing great. At least he is printing real money.

Let me tell you a mistake you're making. If I present you with a liquid in a jar that smells toxic, you're saying "we havent proven this liquid is toxic". Even though your own nose is telling you it just might be.

Same thing with toxic office politics.

Thats why they all on medication in offices. They are toxic to each other, they get sick. It's just that sometimes the person go from toxic parent to office and never realize whats causing the disease.

All the "players" I know are on medication, period. I suspect cancer is following (just my view I have no source). So thanks but no thanks.

For me the next benchmark after perceived happiness is wether or not you're on medication (with rare exceptions). It you're on medication (rare exceptions apply), you can be driving the most beautiful of cars, your life is shit. Rare exceptions apply like you're working on something great or you have inherited your condition. You get the idea.

You think your job and you politics and your thoughts are not responsible for your condition? You think it's the cat? You havent read the manual.

Impressive demo and business idea, congrats, good luck!
