I'm sorry but this is so fucking lame. Your grandparents partied. Your grandparents hosted, they went to bars, they did shit. They didnt sit around and pride themselves for spending all of their free time staring at their children and mowing the lawn. Get the fuck out of your house. Take your wife out for a drink and listen to some live music. Have a conversation with someone at the bar. Go to a hockey game with your college buddies. Youre not somehow more mature for being homebound. Get a life.

The reason socializing is exciting is because you’re looking for someone to have children with. The reason sex is exciting is because you could be making a person. If you accept this teleology early on you’ll be less likely to invest in ideas about life that underdeliver.

Thought experiment: Australia's undersea cables are destroyed. Assume no Starlink or similar. How do we go?

Once one develops a strong radar for self-serving NPCs, and locks in with good people, the clouds part.

Another takeaway after three years of building a company is that the returns to just "being a good person", and not acting transactionally, are higher than I expected. There are so many transactional, boring, and at times immoral people in the tech industry that if you act with sustained warmth, authenticity, humor, and integrity, great gifts will be laid before you. White pill.

Australia's young people no longer feel like they belong in the country. Could this unlikely idea be the way we turn the trend around?

Introducing The Cheeky Pint Benchmark. We made our intern watch every episode of Cheeky Pint to bring you this breakdown of pints drank by guests to the nearest sixth. Congratulations to @elonmusk who is currently in the lead with three full pints of Guinness.

Replying to @AlboMP
Right now, it’s costing Australians $1.6 billion every year. From tomorrow, those card surcharges will be banned.

From concept to reality. @SpaceX has successfully deployed Starlink V3 satellites into Earth’s orbit and made contact with them for the first time. At scale, one Starship carries 60 V3 satellites, the same network capacity as about 20 Falcon 9 launches.
