What It Really Means to Be a Father
Fatherhood Means Showing Up—Always
Being a father means you can’t remember the last time you slept well, but you can instantly tell the difference between “I’m crying because I fell” and “I’m crying because the juice was in the wrong cup.”
It means you’ve become an expert on strollers, thermometers, cartoons, and toddler mood swings—
even though you once dreamed of being a rock star. Or at least sleeping in until 9.I’ve got four of them. Yes, on purpose. No, I’m not crazy. Well, not completely.
Every Day Teaches You Something New
Every single day, I learn something new about myself.
Like the fact that I can read the same book out loud 12 times in a row.Or that I’m capable of not murdering someone who wakes me up at 5:40 AM with, “What if a zebra had a cucumber for a tail?”
That I can love these tiny humans beyond reason— and still daydream about just 15 minutes alone in my forest cave.
Being a Dad Isn’t a Title—It’s Presence
A dad isn’t a “hero,” or a “provider,” or the “head of the family.”
A dad is someone who’s there. Every day. Sometimes in slippers. Sometimes hanging by a thread.
But there.So here’s to every father who’s holding it together.
Who didn’t run. Who isn’t performing for social media.
Even if it feels like everything is held together by duct tape and caffeine.Happy Father’s Day.

Quit Your Career for Family Management? Name Your Price
Let’s Be Adults About This
No powder, no chakras, no storytelling sparkle.
Would You Trade Career for Full-Time Family Management?
How many of you would actually give up your career, your networking, and your coffee-to-go lifestyle to take full charge of the household—if your man paid for everything?
Not Pinterest, But Real Life
This isn’t some romantic Pinterest fantasy. It’s the real thing.
He gives you the money. All of it. You’re fully financially supported. Dreamy? Maybe. But here’s the catch:
You’re the one handling the kids, meals, chores, doctors, tutors, groceries, schedules, vaccines, and emergency cleaning when his mom decides to visit in two hours.
You’re not a housewife. You’re the COO of the family enterprise. No vacation. No benefits. No salary.
He’s the strategist and financier. He shows up for a couple of hours a week—maybe a helicopter ride, a trip for ice cream, some toy joy. All pre-scheduled.
So What’s Your Price to Say “I’m In”?
Now the real question: What amount of money in your account would make you say, “I’m in. I quit my job. I’m managing this circus full-time”?
And How Many Women Would Actually Do It?
More importantly—
how many women are actually ready for this setup?
No working, no self-discovery, no “I’m freelancing”—just full operational leadership of family life, while your partner brings home the money.Because on Instagram, it looks like everyone wants it:
He gives me money.
I smile, inspire, and get my nails done.But in real life? “I’m burned out. It’s thankless. I’m not a maid.”
So here’s the final question: What game are you really willing to play?
Soft life—or diaper logistics and Google Calendar chaos? -
The Next 3 Years of AI: What to Expect and Why It Matters
We’ve already passed the event horizon.
The point of no return is behind us. While we haven’t yet built robots that handle every task or instant cures for disease, GPT-4 and other systems are already outperforming humans in many areas. And yes — they draw better cats. It’s only accelerating from here.Where AI is heading
The most important shift isn’t just automation of routine work — it’s the acceleration of scientific progress and productivity. AI is already making researchers 2–3 times more productive.
What’s coming (if current trends continue)
2025: AI agents will perform complex cognitive tasks — such as writing code. Programming will be completely transformed.
2026: We’ll see systems capable of generating new scientific ideas. Not just assisting — actually inventing.
2027: Physical robots will begin entering the real world as useful agents.
Intelligence will be cheaper than water
By the 2030s, we’ll enter an era of abundance. The current barriers holding back progress will disappear. Intelligence will be as ubiquitous as electricity.
Fun fact: a single ChatGPT query consumes just 0.34 Wh of energy.In the future, computing costs will be negligible.
AI will help create new AI. Robots will build more robots. A cycle of self-improvement is underway.What this means for us
Many jobs will disappear. New ones will emerge. Social systems will adapt — not instantly, but gradually. New social contracts and rules will be created.
What seems like magic today — AI writing novels, developing new drugs, discovering new materials — will soon feel routine.
Scientific breakthroughs in one year instead of decades.The biggest risks
The single most critical challenge: solving the alignmentproblem — ensuring AI acts in humanity’s best interests.
We already see how social media algorithms manipulate attention. If we don’t design future AI with care, the risks will be far greater than just the zombification of newsfeeds.
This is a short summary of Sam Altman’s essay on the future of AI.
My take?
If you’re an entrepreneur or simply someone who wants to build new things — there has never been a better time to start.
Well — except yesterday, of course.We’re standing at the beginning of a true world reset. And it’s only just getting started.

Paraguay: How to Legally Pay 0% Tax on Foreign Income
What Do Beaches and Taxes Have in Common?
Correct, Paraguay.There is neither the first nor the second there. At least, as long as you earn money abroad.
For entrepreneurs, founders, investors, and freelancers, it’s one of the few places where you can legally pay 0% tax on foreign income.
No offshore tricks, no gray schemes, no risk from international tax authorities.Key benefits of Paraguay tax residency
Here’s what makes it attractive:
- Tax residency can be set up in 1–2 недели
- No requirement for permanent residence
- Personal bank account can be opened without excessive bureaucracy
— 0% tax on foreign income. For domestic income: 10% corporate tax, 10% VAT
- No automatic exchange of tax information (CRS)
Why Paraguay makes sense
It’s simpler than a U.S. C-Corp, and more scalable than running a sole proprietorship in Georgia. What more do you need from your corporate structure?

LA Protests: California Sues Trump Over National Guard Deployment
В Лос-Анджелесе третий день протесты. Мигранты вышли на улицы, в ответ Трамп вывел Национальную гвардию. Штат Калифорния подаёт на администрацию президента в суд.
Я ещё не доел попкорн от предыдущего сезона сериала “Трамп и Маск”, а тут спин-офф. С новым злодеем, новым губернатором и всё тем же сценарием: “Feds move in, state fights back.”.
What California says
California Attorney General Rob Bonta stated today:
A) Trump violated the Constitution
B) He had no right to command the National Guard without the governor’s consent
C) The order is illegal, harmful, inappropriate — and not suitable for schoolchildrenGovernor Newsom backed him up: “This isn’t about security. It’s terror.”
Trump’s reply? He suggested… arresting the governor. Elegant move. Pow pow!Protests, troops, lawsuits — another season of the show
Yep, just like a bad Netflix series: migrants in the streets, military vehicles rolling through the city, the state suing the White House, and the president threatening arrests. Prime time, 2025.
Fun fact: his is California’s 24th lawsuit against the federal government in just 19 weeks. Wild times.
The real question: who’s next on Trump’s enemies list?

When You Have No Time to Write — And That’s a Blessing
No time to write. And thank goodness.
While some are posting daily wins, life is happening here. Full, rich, and in motion.
Family. Business. Friends. Surfing. Coffee. Sleep. Autumn. A random heart-to-heart in the kitchen.
The cherry on top — the kids
And the cherry on this multi-layered cake — the kids. Small, loud, funny.
There are a hundred drafts locked away, a business model I won’t pitch to investors, and an almost-finished essay about how everything works. All of it will wait. For now, there’s a child on my lap saying: “Dad, let’s build a rocket!”
And here’s what I’ll tell you: I’ll build the rocket. The post can wait.
What really matters right now
Writing can wait. But one day they’ll grow up — and won’t ask anymore.
So, for now, no posts. But with love. You’re still here — don’t go missing ❤️

7 Encounters in Buenos Aires: A City of Absurdity and Magic
I met a lawyer who said he doesn’t practice anymore — he’s now a chef at his family’s restaurant. He invited me to a pasta tasting. By the third glass of wine, he confessed his dream was to flee to Uruguay and grow strawberries. When I asked why he went to law school, he replied: “For my mother.”
A lesson in medialuna etiquette, straight from immigration
While waiting in line at immigration, I chatted with a guy from Iran. He taught me how to properly eat a medialuna: “You have to dunk it in your coffee.” I was skeptical. Then we shared some mate, and he told me he’d moved here for a girl who ended up marrying his neighbor. He stayed in Buenos Aires anyway — he’d already learned Spanish.
DJ by night, city clerk by day
I met a DJ who works at the local municipality. He told me, “By day I stamp papers, by night I shake up Palermo.” At the party, he played some kind of electronic music with Tibetan horns and whispered French vocals. The crowd loved it. I was...confused.
Tango flirting at a coworking space
At a coworking space, I befriended a woman who teaches tango to digital nomads. She said tango is “the language of what’s left unsaid.” Then she started flirting with me through long pauses in our conversation. I panicked and escaped into a Zoom call — facing a blank wall.
The necromancer of Recoleta
I met a girl who lives in a French-style retirement district and studies necromancy. Seriously. She said Recoleta Cemetery has the best energy for feeling souls. We texted for a while — until she sent me a selfie at a tombstone captioned: “Waiting for you.”I chose not to continue.
A bar made of old televisions
I met a guy who works at a bank but dreams of opening a bar — for friends only. His concept? Everything made from old TVs: the stools, the counters, even the bathroom sink. The bar would be called *“Lo que no se ve”.I told him it was genius. He said, “Lo sé” “Lo sé” and poured me another fernet and coke.
Buenos Aires: a city that stumbles, but never lets go
Таким я запомнил Буэнос-Айрес — город, где банковские клерки мечтают о барах-призраках, диджеи работают в мэрии, а случайные встречи в миграции превращаются в уроки жизни. Город, в котором реальность шатается, как автобус на повороте в Палермо — и в этом вся его магия.

Why Social Intelligence Beats Degrees and Hard Skills
While everyone’s busy chasing new skills and diplomas, true winners are betting on social intelligence — the ability to understand others, sense boundaries, spread positive emotions, and build relationships that actually work.
What science says about human connection
I recently read Daniel Goleman’s “Social Intelligence: The New Science of Human Relationships” — and came away with one simple truth:
Without people, you’re nobody. And even with people, if you can’t relate to them — you’re still in trouble.
What really stuck with me
- Empathy isn’t about being nice — it’s a core superpower
- A colleague’s mood can literally impact your immune system
- One toxic coworker = slow-acting poison
- Your childhood attachments shape your relationship patterns for decades
Communication isn’t a soft skill— it’s one of life’s hardest skills
Bottom line
Want success, happiness, and a healthy mind?
Train not just your brain — but your ability to connect with other brains.

Musk–Trump Feud Wipes $152B Off Tesla’s Value
Today’s business headlines feel like playground drama: Donald Trump and Elon Musk engaged in a public spat that has already caused Tesla shares to plummet 14%, wiping out $152 billion in market value.
How the feud unfolded
Musk called Trump’s proposed bill an “utter abomination,”prompting Trump to threaten to cancel all federal contracts with Musk’s companies.
The cherry on top: Musk accused Trump of hiding documents related to the Epstein case.
The business takeaway
Мораль? Не позволяйте личным амбициям и эмоциям разрушать деловые отношения. Иначе рискуете потерять не только деньги, но и репутацию.
