    The Unfair Advantage - Book Summary, Key Takeaways - mindset-changing book

    BOOKS 
    Interesting take. One thing the book seems to miss is genetics. They shape work capacity, longevity, baseline traits, and a lot of what we call "advantage." Still, the practical takeaway stands: double down on strengths and find people who cover your weak spots.

    Antifragile: Things That Gain From Disorder. I’ve read hundreds of books, and it’s been a long time since one truly challenged my thinking in such a good way. Highly recommended and paradoxically practical.

    Breaking News: The tool doesn't matter, the results it delivers DOES.

    GOLD! NEWSLETTER 
    So true. The hypocrisy is real. Surveys from McKinsey and PwC show that even though 60–70% of consumers claim to care about sustainability, only about 10% actually act on it and vote with their money. I’ve got a friend from California, a leftist for lack of a better word. He once asked to buy...

    I switched to Linux Mint. Works fine out of the box. If you don’t need apps that are specific to Windows, like MS Office, you’ll be fine. I also have a MacBook and macOS is good too. Windows has become awful bloatware that I’m glad to be rid of.

    Amazing video from Casey. View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I1dW-nZqhew My favourite quote from the video "It is good removing friction from a process, but what happens when you remove the whole process? I realized this with myself today with my thinking process. The reason? I rely on...

    Thanks Rudy, good points. I thought QuickSight was more for dashboards, and Bedrock would usually pull from S3 through Knowledge Bases. Solid AWS setup, though it feels more like the standard stack than truly forward-thinking.

    How did you do this? I like this idea. Many times, this is true. I am excluding these cases, and this thought process is preferable. This is often uncertain. I frequently receive feedback like, “I hate AI and don’t use it,” or, “Just do something with AI; we need to prove we are...

    I have a question. I’m at a point where I receive many inquiries in my administration consulting work about which AI tools to use. Put differently, how can AI be applied in settings where accuracy is critical? Which tools can be trusted for accounting and data analytics? From my research, I...

    I agree with everything you say apart from this one point. In 2008, the media brainwashed Germans into hating the southerners of Europe (+Irish) and calling them lazy slackers. Do you remember the term PIGS (Portugal, Ireland, Greece, Spain)? Either way, that is not the point. As a general...

    I would not go for the racial angle. I believe it has to do with poorly educated, low-IQ, low-budget customers. They think their lobotomized Jedi "tricks" work, but anyone with at least one brain cell sending an electric current to another is just fed up and not amused.

    The absolute BEST book you MUST read!

    GOLD! 
    I find so much pleasure in learning how things work and how the world works though. Books are amazing. But true reading is not taking action. It can be a very good way of mental masturbation.
