Because a decent chunk of Real Estate in this country relies on cheap gas. Its only accessible via car, and because of its low density its built far away from real job centers. This means that the value of these properties would tank if the price of gas/energy rises to the point

Idk why gas prices are so culturally salient in america. You could drive an hour a day and it probably comes to less than $3k/year. Is it because they put the price on billboards along the road?

Large language models don't think. They don't reason. And they can't produce endless new information. This is clearly explained by George D. Montañez in a recent talk at Baylor University, and it's worth understanding why. Three key points stood out to me: LLMs don't ponder,

Look, we invented new text processing tools, bankrupt the copyright system, market them as "near-AGI", and bet the stock farm on it while doing preemptive layoffs. What could go wrong..

Everywhere you go in Ireland today, rows of trees have either been chopped down, chopped in half or chopped down to stumpy things with the fork like remains of branches. It's such a depressing sight.

First sign that Lovable is dead Pivoting to general assistant is the most "investor-pleasing" move you could do Their app building business is obv going nowhere and investor money is drying up Why should anyone use Lovable instead of the already established ecosystems

Introducing Lovable for more general tasks. Lovable has always been for building apps. Today it also becomes your data scientist, your business analyst, your deck builder, and your marketing assistant. This is a big step toward what Lovable is becoming: a general-purpose

Mono-culture farming devastates the rest of nature. Farmlands continue to lose much of their wildlife, bees, birds, insects, amphibians. But each generation measures "normal" nature against what existed in their childhood; not what existed before. So we don't mourn the Auroch,

Chinese fishing vessel in Antarctic scooping up krill, right next to whales and penguins These ships track where the animals go to feed & take their food. The ship is Shi Dao, the same fishing vessel that was caught dumping oil into Fijian waters at a shipyard a few years ago.

Logic is simple, you are rich, you buy a Birkshire Hathaway-style failing manufacture, but this time you turn it around with AI automation magic and you make a shitload of money and it trickles down, as usual.

Shoutout to @KevinLMak for all the learning and the unique view he brought on $SPHR. I closed this trade today except a very small position. I think its also a great long term one too. I'm out because of the current general downtrend, love this company.
