  1. it is legit good. my wife's parents seem to buy it so they can make it for lunch for us every time we visit. is it worth $100/lb, likely not but it is amazing.
  2. ski season in full swing here.
  3. 5 days total in Whistler so far this year. Only 1.5 hr away so did a long weekend and do day trips. Long day but awesome especially when doing it alone. problem this year in whistler is the snow keeps melting and becoming slosh at the base. Pictures from yesterday.
  4. Not close to any of these conversations but my understanding... OpenAI was able to attract the level of talent BECAUSE the mission and lack of profit motive Sam has equity via YC but it was critical that exec,founding team, and board were aligned that mission was non-profit Sam's value was being the industry spokesperson for AI and can make money on the side (e.g. Fund other startups, set up a VC fund, start a company that is ancillary) Majority of exec leadership are already wealthy beyond imagination so it was influence and power that motivates Rather disappointing that the whole drama is just corporate strategy difference and a dumpster fire with amateurs running the board.
  5. My company has a moz account if you want me to look it up. If a real domain that is being used, site traffic matters for valuation. If not, the valuation of domain names is completely made up. I bought our company domain from someone squatting on it for ~$20k (high value name/wording). Our lawyers told us is usually cost $100k+ for these type domains so don't worry about low balling the shit out of it.
  6. Average at best skier and able to snowboard. Going all in on the hobby and only have rented skis and snowboard. Tell me what I should buy and where/how! I have irregularly skied for past ~20 yrs and have snowboard a handful of times. Like both equally but probably slightly better with skiing. My type of skiing is just going down the mountain so no cross country or crazy technical. I have always rented but willing to invest given amount of time I am going to spend now.

  8. I would not trust my safety to this guy at all. I am shocked people still will buy Tesla given his instability.
  9. Didn't he advocate that the US needs a Myanmar coup? How is he not in jail?
  10. Would love some chili right now. damn, I am missing food in Texas
  11. Jim Jordan, I heard nothing. Matt Gaetz, Don't stop there, go on.
  12. Yeah, I ran M&A/investments at an O&G adjacent company for short time. It was aggressively O&G that even our partners (e.g. Goldman/ McKinsey) pulled me aside to talk about mgmt not saying those things.
  13. What are people's view about executives taking positions politically at work. I tend to think say nothing. Given recent events in Israel and somewhat in Ukraine, I wonder if it is reasonable. As background, senior person and we have an international team that are impacted by events in Israel. Do we talk to them or the company about it? Added complication - Employees if they are savvy (e.g. Ivy educated) which many are can look up where executives have donated money politically. I am the only one that has significant political donations.
  14. 100% Iran only ability to project power is via Hamas and Hezebolla. We (Israel) neuters Iran by taking out Hamas.
  15. Needs a Liz Cheney to sacrifice their potential career. Knowing you may get primaried but will go down in history as potentially a hugely successful politician.
  16. How low on weapons must you be if relying on North Korea. https://www.politico.eu/article/russia-north-korea-vladimir-putin-rail-traffic-military-trasfers/
  17. I get that logic from Russia but not like we are low on munitions and clearly can fight wars on multiple fronts. I don't get Hamas plan as there is already talk about does Gaza even exist after all this is resolved.
  18. Supposedly? German citizen captured by Hamas... https://www.threads.net/@24hoursukraine/post/CyHTLbCMfiQ https://www.thefp.com/p/i-was-at-a-music-festival-when-the
