Tattoos and time preference

From the comments a statement I have made many times: … I’m still waiting to see the first tattoo that enhances somebody’s looks…

Seven countries bombed by Obama

Currently I am reading Zero to One by Peter Thiel. I found his recent National Conservatism Conference talk quite enlightening:

As a former lab drone, I have often thought about how much easier it is to be a software entrpreneur than a biotech entrepreneur. Thiel spells it out in this interesting table from Zero to One:

Unalignment is a big problem in biotech/pharmaceuticals. Goals established by committees means that most employees are woking on someone else’s bad idea. Failure rates are high (87% across all therapeutic areas). Shifting priorities, unrealistic deadlines, always working in emergency mode, virtue signalling propaganda, and open concept seating all contribute to a toxic work environment. High salaries keep people around for the money, not because they believe in what they are doing.

Thiel’s ideas on monopolies are also refreshing. Currently I am acting on his recommendation to find secret I can exploit.

Best summary I have seen yet of the Democratic party platform from Deplorable jrgdds commenting at Breitbart

Deplorable jrgdds - 7 hours ago - edited

The best that I can tell, in 2020 the Democrats are running on:

-We loathe Donald Trump. We hate America. We hate you. We really hate the )ews.
-Muslims are good. Christians are bad. White people are the cause of every ill on the planet, and if you disagree, you are a racist Nazi.
-We’re OK with murdering newborns. We swear we’ll get Obamacare right the next time.
-Unvetted Illegals must flood in through open US borders in unlimited numbers with impunity as they rape and pillage their way through the country while searching for a better life.
-Carbon is a poison that should be taxed
-Everyone gets a free college indoctrination.
-Everything is about being gay, and being gay is absolutely wholesome and normal.
-Male tranny’s can compete in woman’s sports, share the lady’s room with your wife and daughter, and groom your sons by reading children’s books to them at public libraries in full drag.
-Finally, we need more tax money, and you don’t need your guns.

Small Dogs and Psych Problems: Feature, not Bug

…Small dogs are bred to be companions to people, usually women (often lonely, older women whose children have moved out of the house and don’t call as often as they should). As such, these dogs are bred to have amusing, human-like personalities–including psychological problems…

…Lonely people desire dogs that will stay by them, and so favor anxious dogs. Energetic people favor hyperactive dogs. Anti-social people who don’t want to bond emotionally with others get a snake…
