I've written about how the economic changes from AGI would necessitate a new social contract, and how we better start thinking about and implementing it now!

AI has certainly occupied more of my mind share this year than I would've liked.

The lawyers will be the ones who win out of all this.

People suing actimenophen manufacturers, actimenophen manufacturers suing the government, etc.

This book does an excellent job of teaching the basics to personal finance, no matter what stage in life you're at.

**To be clear, this is NOT medical advice**

We will see how quickly the cyst returns, but as of now, it was "worth it."

The sting and reaction definitely sucked, but ~48 hours of pain and swelling to get rid of a daily annoyance that I've had for years... I'll take it.

I'm not sure if the inflammatory response cleaned up the cyst immunologically or if the pressure from the swelling mechanically "popped" it.

Regardless, it feels much better. Turned a daily low-grade annoyance into basically non-existent.
