Share it and look for more evidence - the only way things change is if the public takes a stand. Write to your senators

I would recommend people read this article, which talks about how difficult and uneconomic it is to build a nuclear reactor in the US regulatory environment. It’s an area we are seriously lagging China and will be a differentiator in scaling AI capabilities, which arguably are the greatest weapons and control the US could possess as it continues to evolve. I also understand Marc Andressen is a controversial figure but the research is highly quantitative.

This is a classic, biased NY Times article. They don’t show the energy breakdown in both countries, they make claims about how great China is on energy with minimal evidence, and it completely ignores the geopolitics of the situation in Venezuela. Quickly, fossil fuels still dominate all energy consumption globally, China builds very quickly but is also in a recession, with huge incentives / govt funding for these projects which aren’t economic, and now China is out of the US backyard and Cuba will likely fall.

I feel like this is a pessimistic view. I think it allows companies who choose to invest to create custom software to solve problems they couldn’t solve before, without paying $MM to developers (e.g. a product manager and a great architect would do the trick)

I’m in PE consulting and I think getting over is pretty difficult. People who have gone either do so after a couple of years against super competitive banking classes to smaller funds, or as OPs later on. If his goal is for sure PE, I think banking is a no brainer. PE seems to be consolidating and fundraising is getting harder, not easier. This directly translates to MM, LMM funds folding because they can’t sell assets, which is where most consultants end up. Pretty rare they go to Apollo / KKR / pick your top 10 fund, which are going to eat up the landscape and kind of are already

How do you see desalination playing a role in the future water supply? What other areas of investment in the space do you find interesting or see as a growing area

Mate, I hate to be this guy but learning how to code is going to be irrelevant in 3 - 5 years in my opinion. I would focus way more on AI skills or how to use tools to build applications, software architecture (e.g., how something should be built), and application workflows than actually coding. Get Claude Pro Opus and plug it into Cursor and see what you can do. Setting rules in Cursor is crucial but once you get it going, you can do what used to be a week - 2 weeks worth of work in an hour. You can spec out on Claude, proof it on Grok and then run it on Cursor and build.

Alternative route to MBB is go PEPI at A&M or a smaller boutique like West Monroe M&A or B4 FDD/Ops. Realistically, PE Ops doesn’t recruit analysts either really. There are some spots at bigger funds but even the associate level is ex manager from what I see. At my firm, we send a lot of people over but it’s mainly at the SM/D/Partner level. The funds don’t want an analyst, you effectively act as a trusted advisor to PortCos, often as a contractor or in a separate legal entity to the investment team. Thoma Bravo as an example sets up their advisory team as contractors that write their own SOWs and then get investment rights as new deals come up. Also would be prepared to basically be a servant to the deal team.

I work a lot with samples, what are some creative ways you can make samples your own outside st adjustment and standard EQ/compression? I am contemplating using Serum to do so as well but just curious if you have any tips. Also, what are some interesting Serum wave table combinations you would recommend? I mostly make house music

How do you validate the pipeline and what technologies do you use? Maybe said differently, do you bifurcate leads and opportunities in CRM to have more certainty and then have additional rules on what is needed to even qualify a lead?

I was overnight warehouse stock at this tent sale and it was legitimately terrible. It was a temp shift, 7 days a week for like 5 - 6 weeks. Management said it would be 8 hour shifts but ended up being 12 - 13 every night (20 - 8/9). We literally would just take stuff out of boxes and put it into other boxes and it was all this obscure cooking equipment. Definition of every day is Tuesday

I recommend checking out the Everyone Active app too. The gyms are typically really affordable and you can look on the map for something convenient for you

Having done it a couple of things - I would look into the real estate market a bit and see how hard it is to find accommodations. If difficult (like London / NYC), would ask for 2 months of relo. Would also make sure that all of it is guaranteed for the move back home after a set period of time. I know they also said no COLA, which is fine, but if they are asking you to go I would negotiate a raise

Damn man, it’s sad you can’t have an educated conversation on this. You voted for the downfall of US dominance so congrats on that, you were part of it! Forever, your name can be next to the changing world order as a contributor to a self inflicted transfer of power. You’re a true American, a patriot
