I’m a similar age with a similar balance. About a year ago, I had a similar realization to you— my future is extremely secure and maximizing my expected lifetime satisfaction would likely involve hedging against risks against my ability to enjoy it over the next 50 years. Societal collapse, health issues, AI, whatever.
I invested a lot in my health. I got myself a much nicer place and have hosted fun dinners and parties for friends at no cost to them. I got a very nice used car (high 5-figs) about a year ago and have enjoyed every minute of driving it. I’ll probably sell it in a few years at a slight profit. I have lightweight prep (food, water, ammo). My accounts continue to grow rapidly. I have no regrets.

- gender pay gap means society discriminates against women

Perhaps using the compromised pagers to keep tabs on Hezbollah would not have been worthwhile

In SotA multi-modal models, images are getting tokenized to 256 tokens, or ~196 words :)

Half the announcement talks about “safety.” This makes me sad.
C*mtown too, for some definition of successful. There’s actually more than I thought, looking at this small list here.

SL is good for beginners but once you’ve done it for 6-12 months you’re ready to progress to more advanced programs.
The most important part is consistency. Then, progressive overload which you’re used to with SL. College bros get big doing nothing but this, it’s extremely inefficient, they waste hours in the gym every day.
I get a lot of compliments on my body and I work out for just 2-3 hours/week, but I’ve been doing it for 10+ years.
My keys to efficiency:
