I'm generally a staunch defender of the economics profession but the fact that an 80 year old reality show star and his ragtag crew of like 5 alabama university undergrads are running circles around 10 thousand PhDs for a year now does raise some questions one cannot ignore

Machiavelli is like 95% boomerslop but one piece of advice he keeps giving over and over again which seems to be true & useful is that you can get away with being as evil and cruel to your subordinates as you want as long as you're not humiliating them

my palantir mental model is basically: > be 35 y/o peter thiel > hmm the deep-state will probably need software at some point > they're too boomered out to figure it out themselves > I can probably do it? > tell 5 minions "hey you're the deep-state software guys now" > ok boss

this dostoevsky quote is a massive whitepill if your intuitions are statistically mature btw if he perma grinded like a good boy instead of "idling around" and "making errors" the probability that he'd have died as a noname normie journalist rounds to 1 if you pay attention

it's insane that normie appeal is basically an unsolvable problem Peter Thiel is a 6 sigma intellect with the capacity to forecast complex systems 5 years out but he just gets instantly oneshotted the second he's put in front of a camera and tries to cultivate popular sympathy

nothing will blackpill you on first-principles slop more than spending a few years developing expertise in a field and then watching IQ130+ laypeople start opining during some hype cycle if the boomers will be vindicated on one thing it's their cult of domain experience

"obvious IQ135+ hyperautist whose rough upbringing involuntarily oversocialized him into dropping all the social inhibitions/maladaptations and forced him into an upper-normie utility function" is probably the most potent human archetype... extremely formidable operators
