  • He’s right! I love that he called it out. He’s got an edge of outcome bias for sure. Makes me want to see more of his stuff.

    His movie Elevation was better than the reviews say it is, I liked it a lot and thought it was one of his best performances. Just my $0.02.

    Here is a fun thought experiment. In any zero sum game there will be a Warren Buffet. And people will follow him or her around asking for their advice and writing books on it while ignoring all the people who did exactly the same thing that lost everything.

    So for the experiment it’s a coin flipping championship with millions of participants. Heads you win and move on, tails you lose. All the coins are the same and totally fair. Someone will win far more than everyone else. People will follow this person around, invite them to speak publicly, write books, and so on. If they fail to understand the world properly they’ll buy into it and even tell people their secret to flipping coins successfully.

    Don’t be fooled by randomness. Instead motivate against bad luck and position yourself to exploit good luck.

    Lol he totally does! And he kicks my ass in ACC, and F1 '23 all the time. Occasionally he’ll mess up and I’ll get enough of a lead to keep ahead. No idea how my son is so damn fast but I’m learning.

    Edit: Learning on the simulation rig he’s built me. He’s building me an upgraded one now, just because. He’s a good kid. Unless there’s an electrical box near by 😂

    Yoooo! Ricardo all the way. He was also my boy. And same for people to root for, I love or like so many of the drivers. This year like 4 or 5 of em are under drinking age I think. I’m excited to see the young people make their mark!

    I kind of want to see Max get a 5th and in a row but my boy this year is Piastry. I just think he’s a neat kid. But as long as it’s not Stroll or Ocon. I do not like either of them.

    How was the Montreal race? When Canada is wet it’s some of the best racing ever! And can be a real bitch in the simulator with that one hairpin turn.
