tested it on 10 MrBeast videos!! The brain ranking did NOT match the views ranking. Predicted rewards tracked comment rate and like rate, but negatively tracked total views. Big-money stunts win clicks. Personal stories win the reward signal. 6-page write-up attached. n=10, so don't believe it yet, but the shape is interesting.

We’ve figured out a content distribution system on Tiktok, Instagram, and YouTube shorts that can get 100M views on a slow month and 300M+ views on a good one. Main account - Every other account points here in the caption - Follower to post ratio is absurd because most followers come from clips, not posts Business clips - Long-form takes, podcast cuts, frameworks - Hits operators, CEOs, serious founders - Feeds Consulting(.)com & Quantum Lifestyle & behind-the-scenes - Day-in-the-life, travel, team - Hits younger audience who want the aspirational side - Feeds the main account & physical product brands Controversial takes - The spicy, polarizing clips - Hits wider audience outside our normal reach - Feeds top of funnel awareness Each account = one bucket = one segment of the market. One age group, one interest, one vibe. We started doing this as pure redistribution, just more shots at the algorithm. Every account gets its own viral quota from the platform, so the math is simple, more accounts = more chances. But the real unlock came later. We noticed when you mix a funny clip with a serious business clip with a controversial take on the same account, people engage with one, then drop off the next, then the algorithm kills your reach. Momentum breaks. The fix was splitting by bucket. Now every account has one narrative, one audience, and one job and I control how I'm perceived across the entire internet instead of letting it be random. That's how you win distribution.

6 months ago, I moved to San Francisco. It’s the best place in the world to build, and one of the worst places to stay human. My unfiltered take: 1. SF is both overhyped and underrated The overhyped part: there are a lot of people with incredible resumes who are deeply unimpressive in real life. They were at the right company, at the right time, in the right market, and got carried by the wave. They made money, got comfortable, and now spend their time “exploring opportunities” over coffee, wasting your time. The underrated part: the top 1% here is insane. But almost impossible to get. Hiring in SF feels like being a guy on a dating app: everyone you want is out of your league, and everyone in your league wants someone out of theirs. The best people have unmatchable packages, endless options, and are optimizing for maximum impact: labs, frontier companies, or startups raising $100M pre-seed rounds. If you raised $10M from Tier 1 investors, you’re not hot shit here. You’re a B-player. It’s humbling. 2. There are fewer mission-driven people than I expected Especially on the application layer. A lot of people are in “secure the bag before it’s too late” mode. And honestly, it gives me the ick. The real religious builders I’ve met are often in labs, hardware, biotech, deeptech, defense — places where the work is hard enough that you can’t fake obsession. 3. The status game favors builders This is what SF does better than anywhere else. It rewards obsession. It rewards weirdness. It rewards people who make building their entire personality. Europe punishes that. SF gives it status. If you’ve felt like an outsider your whole life because you care too much, work too much, think too radically, or refuse to be chill about things that matter, this city will make you feel less insane. 4. The market liquidity is absurd Even if you don’t build a billion-dollar company, if you manage to build a strong product with a great team, someone smart might still acquire you for $ 100M. Yeah I know, it’s not your dream outcome as a founder, but on the days you feel desperate, it helps to keep going. 5. SF does not care about the meaning crisis that’s coming Anyone paying attention here can feel that something massive is happening with AI. But I’m shocked by how little people talk about the meaning crisis coming next. Everyone wants to talk about AI liberating humanity. Almost no one wants to talk about what happens when work — the thing that gives most people identity, structure, dignity, status, and purpose — starts disappearing. The vacuum will not be peaceful. People are underestimating the chaos that comes from humans suddenly having no idea why they matter. And I really feel like no one cares. 6. Personally, I’ve never been more unhappy I moved to SF and entered the matrix. I’ve always been intense. I’ve always worked crazy hours. But here, I lost the last parts of myself that were not about building. I don’t go to events. Most networking events feel like theater for people pretending to be important. The only events worth going to are small, curated dinners with people who are actually alive. I’ve made 0 real friends. I don’t do well with transactionality. I don’t do well with people constantly performing greatness. I don’t do well with rooms where everyone is optimizing and no one is being honest. So yes, SF is lonely, transactional, delusional, addictive, inspiring, boring, extraordinary, and completely insane. But it is still the only place to be right now if you’re a founder trying to build the next wave of humanity. And for now, that’s enough.

What if workouts were generated like this? Built a dumbbell routine as a motion sheet with GPT Image 2 Then turned it into a video with Seedance 2.0 I tested 4 exercises in 15s, it works, but 2–3 exercises would probably give the best output. Motion sheet: Monochrome grayscale technical illustration, biomechanically accurate fitness instruction sheet, clean 3D anatomical character, scientific diagram aesthetic, minimalistic, no artistic exaggeration 2x4 grid layout (8 panels total), perfectly aligned cells, equal spacing, thin black borders, numbered from 1 to 8 Neutral athletic human body (gender-neutral), proportional anatomy, consistent character across all panels Dumbbell workout sequence (key positions only): 1. Dumbbell curl (start position) 2. Dumbbell curl (top contraction) 3. Shoulder press (start at shoulder level) 4. Shoulder press (overhead lockout) 5. Dumbbell lateral raise (arms down) 6. Lateral raise (arms at shoulder height) 7. Dumbbell squat (standing start) 8. Squat (bottom position) Top-left: bold number + exercise name (English) Center: full-body pose (clear joint positions) Bottom-left: short technical explanation (2–3 lines, correct form cues) Overlay: directional arrows showing movement path (up/down/arc) Correct joint alignment, neutral spine, proper elbow and knee positioning, realistic weight distribution, no exaggerated motion Highly detailed grayscale shading, soft studio lighting, subtle shadows, clean linework, medical / sports science diagram quality Pure white background No colors, no background environment, no extra elements, no stylization, no blur

Job application hack: Save your CV as 001-[firstname]-[lastname].pdf This will force the downloaded CV to have a high rank in the recruiter's download folder. It will most likely be the first file in the folder. I used this a lot back in the day. Same name format for cover letters too.
