Haven't posted in a while so thought I'd give a personal update for those curious. Returned to the U.S (Nova/Washington D.C area) for Thanksgiving (also because my Schengen visa expired). Currently thinking to go to Miami this weekend possibly followed by NYC Started a new job as engineer hire #2 for a seed stage database … Continue reading What I’ve Been Up To (Dec 7th, 2022)

One of my biggest mindset shifts this year has been embracing the challenge. I believe that anything fulfilling in life requires risk, challenge, and struggle. Without struggle, there is no fulfillment. What do the following all have in common? Eating junk food Being a lazy sack of sh*t Not getting the work done and achieving … Continue reading Embrace The Struggle

Here’s a summary of my lessons learned living in Europe, Asia, and South America over 5 years as an American. Asian cities like Seoul, Singapore, and Tokyo are way more advanced than us. Doesn’t even come close. People take pride in their work, no matter how menial. These cities are by far the cleanest and … Continue reading What the U.S. Can Learn From Europe, Asia, and South America

Life is like a dance, and men are expected to lead. Men who can’t initiate and lead are considered unattractive and won’t get anything. Thus the responsibility is on the male to learn how to initiate and lead if he desires to achieve any success in life especially with the opposite gender. Woke feminists can … Continue reading How to Be a Man

The pursuit of climbing a career ladder for its own sake is one of the most meaningless goals ever, a product of a culture devoid of meaning and personal autonomy. The greatest achievements of humanity stem from people pursuing a noble mission, not trying to get promoted to L7 at a large corporation. Life in … Continue reading Climbing the Career Ladder Should Not Be the End Goal

"Just be yourself" is terrible advice. The intention of course is well-meaning - to be confident in oneself. I certainly agree that everyone should be confident. The problem is when people misconstrue "just be yourself" as "you are perfect the way you are and don't need to improve". No you are not perfect, and neither … Continue reading Don’t Just Be Yourself. Improve Yourself.

Normally I don't pay much attention to fringe idiots, but I think this is worth bringing attention to because it's a miniature version of the bigotry that has taken over the public as a whole. Cancel culture is the direct result of this bigoted, anti-intellectual "woke" culture that is incapable of rational thought and believes … Continue reading College Campus Debate Exposes Bigotry of Wokeness

EDIT: This post is not an endorsement of Andrew Tate, it is an endorsement of freedom of speech, and a criticism of "cancel culture" in response to him and many others being banned from Facebook/Instagram, Twitter, Youtube, AirBnB, Uber, etc. due to their outspoken beliefs. During the COVID-19 epidemic many people including prominent scientists were … Continue reading Why Andrew Tate Should Not Be Censored (even if you disagree with him) [2022]

There are already a million Terra Post Mortems so I won't repeat what's already been said. What I will say is that anyone who was following this debacle could've made a ton of money shorting Luna and UST. Here's a video of me during the crash explaining why I'd went short. My Background with LUNA LUNA … Continue reading The Big Luna Short

With a $18b algorithmic stablecoin named UST imploding, I thought I'd explain how Terra/Luna/UST works for those unfamiliar. Terra is a blockchain built on Cosmos SDK powering a suite of algorithmic stablecoins. The largest of these stablecoins is TerraUSD, or more commonly known as UST, which attempts to track the U.S dollar. The Luna token … Continue reading How Terra Works (UST, Luna) – And Why It May be Doomed
