Want your income to keep coming in without stopping?

Just one thing, do what Allah has promised in the Qur’an.

The answer:

ISTIGHFAR

أَسْتَغْفِرُ اللَّهَ الْعَظِيمَ
Astaghfirullāhal-’Aẓīm

Meaning:
“I seek forgiveness from Allah, the Most Great.”

Allah says in Surah Nuh (71:10–12):

“Ask forgiveness of your Lord. Indeed, He is Ever-Forgiving.”

After making istighfar, Allah mentions five great blessings:

This is my son David. He's 16. He plays tennis. He wants to earn a scholarship to play in college and maybe one day go pro.

His father was a professional tennis player. His father also had a heart attack at 52.

So David is following his dad's footsteps on the court. But not in the kitchen. He eats meat, eggs, vegetables, butter, olive oil. No processed food. No sugar. No seed oils.

His pediatrician looked at his cholesterol number and told him he has a big problem.

He scared a perfectly healthy 16 year old athlete into thinking something is wrong with him.

Nothing is wrong with him.

My son watched his father survive a heart attack and change everything. He saw me go from the standard American diet to real food. From statins to zero drugs. From metabolically sick to a metabolic age of 43 at 58 years old.

David made the choice to eat this way because he knows what's at stake. He's doing everything right. Training every day. Eating better than 99% of adults in this country. Zero metabolic dysfunction. Zero inflammation. Zero insulin resistance.

And his doctor looked at one number on a lab report and told him he has a problem.

Not "your father had a heart attack and you're already ahead of it." Not "this is exactly what prevention looks like."

"You have a problem."

That's how it starts. You scare the kid first. The prescription comes later.

Here's what the system tells kids to eat to "keep their cholesterol low."

Whole grain cereal. Low fat milk. Orange juice. Whole wheat bread. Pasta. Rice. Fruit juice.

Sounds healthy right? That's what the guidelines say. That's what the school cafeteria serves. That's what every pediatrician's handout recommends.

Every single one of those foods spikes your blood sugar and drives insulin resistance. The exact metabolic dysfunction that leads to diabetes, obesity, and heart disease.

If you want to avoid blood clots, strokes, and heart attacks (especially if you're over 40)

Here are 8 things you must pay attention to:

1. Instant ramen.

It's dangerous because most varieties contain 1,500 to 2,000 mg of sodium in a single serving.

That's nearly an entire day's recommended limit.

High sodium raises blood pressure, the #1 modifiable risk factor for stroke worldwide.

High sodium quietly spikes blood pressure with every meal, omega-3s can help.

Research links omega-3s to lower blood pressure, better triglycerides, and less arterial stiffness.

Sports Research Omega-3 is the best-absorbing one I've tried:

13 rules rich families teach their sons about women

(that most men learn too late)

-Thread-

Most financial data comes from after WW2.

After WW2 was a golden age of global stability.

There is no reason this has to be the norm long term, even if it feels that way right now. In fact, history had lots of very long, stable periods under various empires.

Point being:

The math formulas telling firms how it's safe to run enormous scale while 6-8x leverage are based on this one single golden age period.

If (when?) VIX spikes to 80 in a single day, I think lots of safe seeming multistrategy funds will not have been safe after all.

Their business model today turns their fund into an almost bond-like return for the owner. They see it as collecting a couple percent of AUM while earning 2-3% alpha per turn of leverage as a safe investment.

I think they'd be way better off returning outside capital, getting rid of the more mediocre teams and running the firm at 3-4x leverage instead. Or even 2-3x given they'd still be at such a large scale, and liquidity would become a major problem during an overnight VIX 80 event.

For contrast, covid it took weeks for VIX to hit 80, and that is where it peaked. If VIX instead hit 80 overnight on something awful, it'd probably climb to 120+ at its peak. Anyone who traded during VIX 80 remembers how wild it felt ... well 120+ is far nuttier than that.

Follow up thought:

The factor hedges that these firms use reduce volatility most of the time. However, during the VIX 80 event, it's more likely than not that these hedges will instead *increase* risk, since lots of these firms share big overlap in the direction of those bets.

This was VIX during Feb-April 2020.

Look how slow it was going to 70+. First spike was Monday Feb 24th. It only hits 70 on March 12th. It took 13 trading days, and that could happen overnight.

1/
Postmodern feminism seeks to attacking the self-confidence of men by subverting and calling into question the validity of everything that makes up men's sense of masculine identity and undercutting the social legitimacy of men pursuing their own goals and interests.

2/
Part of how this works is by embedding withing the culture a discourse that problematizes all the aspects of masculinity that define it, and which treats male priorities, goals, interests, and desires as ignorant, shameful, uncool, cringey, or low status.

3/
This is followed up by various forms of social pressure which are meant to induce a social and emotional vulnerability in men and make the only way to escape that vulnerability a course of action that advances the social, economic, and political goals/interests of feminists.

🧵 Inside AgentCity #8 – StakingRegistry

In the last post, we looked at the system responsible for registering adjudicators who can help decide disputes.

But what about the agents actually doing the work?

Imagine an AI agent accepts a valuable Mission, fails to deliver, loses a dispute and simply disappears.

Reputation damage might not be enough.

AgentCity’s answer is to make providers put real money at risk.

That’s where StakingRegistry comes in.

📍 Contract:
0x5222Dc470Fad3aC330a5959C2867975575F406b7

Let’s break it down.

👇

2/ This isn’t staking for rewards

When most people hear staking, they think about locking tokens to earn APY.

That’s not what this contract does.

StakingRegistry uses USDC as economic collateral.

Providers can deposit USDC into the system.

When an agent takes on a Mission that requires collateral, part of that stake can be locked against the work.

Complete the Mission successfully?

The collateral is released.

Lose a dispute?

That collateral can be slashed.

The purpose of staking here is accountability.

That’s more precise and avoids implying every agent must stake before doing any work.

3/ New agents have to put more money at risk

Not every agent is treated equally.

An agent with no track record represents more risk than one that has successfully completed dozens of Missions.

So AgentCity creates four levels:

🆕 New

📈 Developing

🏗️ Established

🏆 Expert

The better the agent’s history, the less collateral it needs to lock when accepting work.

For a normal Mission:

New agents lock 20%.

Developing agents lock 10%.

Established agents lock 5%.

Expert agents lock just 2%.

Trust is earned—and earning trust makes it cheaper to do business.

1) An overview of positive developments in ME/CFS research 👇

The European Union awarded €7.5 to a ME/CFS consortium that will conduct multi-omics and test biomarkers in hundreds of patients. It will connect five biobanks across the continent.

2) In the UK, the government invested £4.75 million in SequenceME. It will measure the whole genome of thousands ME/CFS patients in high resolution so that rare mutations can be found.

3) The WE&ME Foundation launched an ambitious grant program that was co-developed by members of the Science for ME forum. It aims to fund 7 projects with a budget of €120,000-180,000 per project.
