This is the hardest thing I try to do in my life, but the only thing, that really matters: Trying to sail the ship, which is our family, through today’s sea of insanity while keeping our values, minds and hearts sane - to enable our kids to be strong captains on their own ships in the future.

The reason government programs are so inefficient is that, unlike a commercial company, the feedback loop for improvement is broken, because they have a state-mandated monopoly and can’t go out of business if customers are unhappy.

Yara is a brave Druze from Sweida. Her family — like many Druze families — is under siege. They have no internet, electricity, water, or safety. She’s calling on Syrians to break the silence. I'm calling on the world to finally use its voice for a true humanitarian cause.

Grok 4 is the first time, in my experience, that an AI has been able to solve difficult, real-world engineering questions where the answers cannot be found anywhere on the Internet or in books. And it will get much better.
There has been almost 100 bombing attacks in Sweden so far this year. There was over 10.000 reported r*pes in Sweden last year. There are almost 60 no-go zones now with gang crime out of control. There are 68.000 women in the country that are genitally mutilated. Disaster.
