Happened at Zandvoort IIRC.

I've had the same issue on and off for the last two years. No problems falling asleep, then I'd be up and down starting around 2:30-3 and finally up for good around 4:45-5. I had some bad nightime routines (screen time, bright lights, an occasional nightcap, etc) and I noticed that it was worse when I was heavier. I did lose a good amount of weight last year and sleep improved somewhat but still not great.

Recently I swapped out Magneisum Glycinate for these CBN gummies and my sleep has improved materially. Now I fall asleep between 10-11, wake up once to pee, go back to sleep fairly easily, and then naturally wake up between 5:30-6:15. I've found one gummy (half-dose) is plenty. They do not contain CBD, THC or melatonin.

A few other notes:
- I'd definitely try the Cognitive Behavioral Therapy protocols mentioned above. These have a proven track record.
- it looks like the FDA will approve a new pill for sleep apnea, AD109, later this year or early next. Might be worth discussing w/ your Doc.
- I do find Unisom effective but I only take it when traveling (my sleep has always been terrible away from home). You need to be careful with Unisom because it is habit-forming.
- While I stopped taking Magnesium Glycinate when I started the CBN gummies, I believe they can be taken together but you may want to investigate that further.

Mom & Dad look like one of those "SEC Couple" memes.

Solid choice for a Swiss made daily driver. I'd put Doxa in the same category as Mido, Oris and Certina. Personally, I'm a fan of the Certina DS Action Diver 38mm Titanium (Reference: C048.807.44.081.00). I was considering this Oris Divers Date but the Certina has so much bang for the buck.

Starting to get some info on which actors are playing which characters....

Bale = Hanna
Leo = Shiherlis
Stephen Graham = McCauley
Adam Driver = Wardell (villain role)

The Wrap

For those unfamiliar with the book, Heat 2 is a sequel and prequel to the original movie.

IIRC from the book, there's a few other major roles left to drop: Charlene (Ashley Judd's character), Cerrito (Tom Sizemore), Nate (Jon Voight), and a handful of new characters.

That grid walk was a shite show. Kim K reminding everyone why she’s awful.

Pacing was awful in season two and had some really bad story lines for main characters.

Strongly disagree. I could've used 3, maybe 4 more episodes of Daemon tripping balls at the spooky castle.

So to answer your question, the winners will be those that can implement the tech in the short-term. In the long term, we may all be fricked but time will tell.

100%

I do think Accounting will be somewhat protected in the short run because the application layer for AI is still lacking. It's great that KPMG just signed a big deal with Anthropic. How many audit or core tax managers & seniors can actually built an agent or setup a dev environment for Claude Code? And if you say "the firm's in-house IT guys will build the Agents / AI-powered internal tools", my response will be "Have you ever actually worked with those guys?" And it is even worse the further down the food chain you go. I'd love to see a boomer partner at, say, Carr Riggs & Ingram build something in Replit.

I've also found accounting firms to be particularly lousy at technology adoption / integration. Having spent 4 years in Big 4 and 10ish years at national firm / near peers I lost count of the botched and half-assed implementations I witnessed. Curious if others have had similar experiences.

All that said, the kids in Accounting / Internal Audit right now really need to build the foundational and functional skills to utilize LLMs to their full potential. I encourage the youngsters to build a projects portfolio similar to what SWEs and Data Analysts have to do. This will be key to advancement and eventually survival.
