Lee Kuan Yew:

“Air conditioning was a most important invention for us, perhaps one of the signal inventions of history. It changed the nature of civilization by making development possible in the tropics. Without air conditioning you can work only in the cool early-morning hours or at dusk. The first thing I did upon becoming prime minister was to install air conditioners in buildings where the civil service worked. This was key to public efficiency."

Men are more sexually jealous in cultures where paternal investment is higher.

Plain language: Men are more worried about cuckoldry in cultures where it would be costlier to be cuckolded.

Always remarkable, to me, how context-sensitive and adaptable our evolved psychology is.

Asmongold explains why his "bottom 2%" take makes people so angry

"People are mad because it destroys two narratives they live their lives around. The first is that poor people are poor because of structural reasons with no fault of their own. The second is it inverts the guilt they try to pin on the top one percent."

"If you took the top 2% of people and they just vanished, every single functional societal system would totally collapse. Businesses would fall apart, machines would stop running. They're the only ones smart enough to understand the systems. That's the truth, you might not like it, but it's the truth."

"Now contrast that. If you lost the bottom 2%, the world would astronomically improve. Everybody's lives would instantly get better. You'd get rid of 95% of violent criminals, probably the majority of criminals in general. There is not a single aspect of your life that would get worse in any way."

You need to realize that women hate nice guys. They are repulsed by them. That’s why most of them hate their husbands because they’re “too nice.”

Women are attracted to guys who treat them like sh&t.

A woman will remember the guy who cheated on her, abused her, or even raped her over the guy who was attentive, brought her flowers, and was supportive.

Nice guys finish last in every aspect of life.

Leverage in South Korean stocks is out of control:

Assets under management (AUM) in South Korea's leveraged ETFs are up to a record ~$45 billion.

AUM has surged +800% since the start of 2026.

As a result, leveraged exposure as a % of free float market capitalization, the portion of shares actually available for public trading, is up to a record ~2.9%, more than TRIPLING since January.

Meanwhile, the Hong Kong-listed 2x leveraged long SK Hynix ETF rose to ~$15 billion in assets at its peak, the largest single-stock leveraged product in the world.

By comparison, four leading 2x leveraged long ETFs tracking Micron, $MU, Nvidia, $NVDA, Sandisk, $SNDK, and Tesla, $TSLA, have each never exceeded $10 billion in assets.

Leverage in Korea is at extreme levels.
