The Surgeon Paradox is a concept I can’t stop thinking about.
— Sahil Bloom (@SahilBloom) July 1, 2023
If you’re choosing between two surgeons of equal merit, you should choose the one who DOESN’T look the part, because they’ve had to overcome more to get to where they are.

You can now clone your voice using a few seconds of audio, give the robot personality, and deploy a clone of yourself.
Here is a step-by-step process on how to do this in less than two minutes:
I'm using @myshell_ai:
— Santiago (@svpino) June 21, 2023
1. Record 60 seconds of audio using your phone
2. Focus on sound quality. Avoid background noises
3. Go to https://t.co/sVScX7FE2j
4. Click on Create a Robot and give it a name
5. Upload your audio. Click on Clone
It will take a few seconds to complete. pic.twitter.com/2bHFFgOsYE

What should we do to stop that? I’m open to ideas.
My favorite thing real estate gurus do is gloss over having to maintain the property, deal with tenants, navigate economic environments, come up with the cash to buy the property in the first place and work really hard. Otherwise, it’s a super easy way to make money!

Traditional media have used the term “far-right” so frequently & hyperbolically that it no longer means anything.
— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) June 30, 2023
What use of that term by media actually represents is the immense ideological gap between the effete elite and the people.
When I launched my first product I was too scared to charge more than $40.

But this scarcity-based approach benefits no one.
Don't undervalue yourself.
Don't devalue your product.
Charge what you're worth.

It’s not enough that citizens who relied on the promise of student loan forgiveness will not be referred to credit agencies. POTUS must invoke HEA to pause interest & collections until the debt is forgiven. Let the other side sue. Stand with students. NO interest, NO collection. https://t.co/qg9lxYF5PE

You have to sacrifice everything, including your health, as a CEO of a venture-backed company.

If you sacrifice your health, you'll fail.
But you can't have it all: Startup, Family, Health, Friends, Hobbies.
