(26) Post | LinkedIn : ► Trump was first compromised by the Russians back in the 80s. In 1984, the Russian Mafia began to use Trump real estate to launder money and it continued for decades. In 1987, the Soviet ambassador to the United Nations, Yuri Dubinin, arranged for Trump and his then-wife, Ivana, to enjoy an all-expense-paid trip to Moscow to consider possible business prospects. Only seven weeks after his trip, Trump ran full-page ads in the Boston Globe, the NYT and WaPO calling for, in effect, the dismantling of the postwar Western foreign policy alliance. The whole Trump/Russian connection started out as laundering money for the Russian mob through Trump's real estate, but evolved into something far bigger. ► In 1984, David Bogatin — a Russian mobster, convicted gasoline bootlegger, and close ally of Semion Mogilevich, a major Russian mob boss — met with Trump in Trump Tower right after it opened. Bogatin bought five condos from Trump at that meeting. Those condos were...

Best Air Purifier of 2025

Best Air Purifier of 2025 : Cultural behaviors play a big role too. Purity is an inherent part of toilet etiquette in India. According to common customs, toilets are often built outside the home and deemed unclean. That means many people in India still see open defecation as a more sanitary option than using a bathroom in or near the home. Because of this, even after the government builds new toilets for people, they will go unused, instead functioning as storage rooms.

Jensen Huang’s Maxims

Post | Feed | LinkedIn 1. The mission is the boss: Decisions are made on the basis of the end goal of serving the customer, not internal politics. 2. Strategy is about the things you give up: Pick the most important thing. Do that and leave the others aside. 3. We don't steal market share, we create markets: Nvidia wants to be the market leader in a new area rather than fight over an existing business. 4. Criticism is a gift: Providing direct feedback leads to continuous improvement. 5. Don't worry about the score. Worry about how you play the game: Don't be distracted by stock price volatility. Focus on delivering excellent work and creating value. 6. Honing the sword: Spirited debate often leads to the best ideas. 7. Is it world class? : Nvidia's products, talent acquisition, and business practices must be benchmarked against the best in the industry. 8. Let's go back to first principles: Tackle problems with a clean sheet of paper, not o...
