Those students - arguably some of the brightest minds that could shape the region’s geopolitical realities in the future - will find themselves expelled. My immigrant dad used to say “Think. Don’t sink” Those students didn’t think. And now they’re sunk.

The protest yesterday lacked creativity worthy of a Stanford student Rather than sit-ins, graffiti or divestment (pointless), figure out a way to have Stanford anchor a $1 Billion Palestine Youth Investment Fund to educate 1000 children over the next 10 years + startup capital

What do you want to know?

I can't find coverage of the Fox News settlement with Dominion Voting on any of the https://t.co/agw9O0q6O4 properties, including https://t.co/NjE842Jce8, etc Does anyone have links to stories Fox reporters have written up about Fox's settlement?

Just had the most amazing experience with @SFPD helping to apprehend a burglary in process at my office @ 2:30AM. Response time under 3 minutes, 3 officers on site, with me remotely opening doors / remote cameras, apprehended the individual. Professional, effective and courteous.

In 2021, US Fed Gov't collected $4 Trillion in taxes representing ~18% of GDP ($22 Trillion)...but ran a ~$3 Trillion deficit At that spending level, just to break even, US would need to add $16 Trillion of GDP in 2022 ie. 73% GDP growth US 40-year GDP avg growth: ~2% Ugh.

There will be more of these reports in the coming years. https://t.co/Z6jX49uPJY

As discussed previously, let's not kid ourselves -- COVID was not the flu. https://t.co/ucg5V34BKp

This war is going to end when China believes it is hurting their interests. We’re not anywhere near there yet.

Poland is not sending mixed signals. They are realizing the realpolitik downside risk of sending jet fighters to support Ukraine, using lower level officials to publicly float support this "cooler heads" position. US should not have publicly "green lit" this concept. @DavidSacks

COVID will prove to be the greatest asymmetric warfare in geopolitical history.

1.1M new children COVID cases last week, up from 165K new cases four weeks ago. I pray we don't discover that COVID has long term impacts on children...we'd probably wish we had adopted a different Omicron narrative than "oh it's mild for most, let's get back to normal".

Share of total hospitalizations during 4-week COVID-19 peak: 0-4 year olds: Delta +39% vs. Alpha Omicron +200% vs. Delta 5-17 year olds: Delta +15% vs. Alpha Omicron +66% vs. Delta Share of total thankfully still lowest of all age categories. https://t.co/SH36h45kN5

How far we've come: https://t.co/VmMElqr3EF via @YouTube cc: @bettersoma @michelletandler @JennyChachan

@Bob_Wachter Glad it’s an easy case. Even at 28 Covid ain’t a cold. Nor a flu. Glad you were able To get each other through.

Folks taking the Omicron variant casually because symptoms are mild and hospitalizations + death rates are low on a percentage basis are missing the point of continued vigilance: https://t.co/ZjFJHp2VLL We're not out of the woods yet.

I get a lot of WhatsApp spam, random folks trying to contact me. Always iterating the message and the sender always some attractive girl. I block them all. Props for this latest version:

Tech Entrepreneur Risk: high — “burning the ships” re: ever having a “safe” career path Innovation: high — obv depends on the tech, but the more innovative the higher the comp Capital: high — if successful, can attract significant capital + generate outsized returns

Example: Teachers Teachers are paid less because; Risk: low/moderate — while not necessarily easy to find a job, school districts are hiring Innovation: low — teaching excellence is def innovative but not scalable Capital: low — no capital formation or allocation reach

Risk: level of risk taken by the individual or on behalf of a group Innovation: technology innovation generally but can, to a lesser degrees, refer to execution innovation Capital: proximity to capital, most obvious, but also ability to generate capital returns for many

If you want to understand total compensation (salary, bonuses, equity value) in the United States economy, you need to analyze it through the framework of: * risk * innovation * capital What society “should” perceive as valuable doesn’t factor in.
