    Satire becomes the new way to roll a business. We’ve reached a point where this kind of post with its obviously satirical framing could as well come from an actual founder dude who just craves for maximum attention with nothing to show for it and just trying to go from there. At this point it doesn’t matter anymore if it’s satirical or not as long as it gets the clicks. Clicks turn into dollars at some point.

    Not to blame lil’ Ky-Nam here, although looking at the short summary (3x Majors CS, Econ) this sounds like either the entire profile is satire or he is unseriously serious about this kind of hype business approach to just get attention and then go from there. But maybe it’s just a dude.

    What a time, we can’t even discriminate the authentic crap from toxic crap anymore.

    Some people do have unlimited energy. Was watching a car show where this dude fabs up amazing shit on his own, and he only sleeps 3 hours a day, says thats all he needs amd he just wakes up and goes to play in his garage.

    Some people just lucky. Then there’s me, not old or out of shape, can sleep 13 hours easy and not have any energy, thyroid tested fine, im literally just a low energy person most of the time. Sucks.

      I have this, I suspect it’s familial natural short sleep (FNSS). I never need to sleep more than 5 ish hours generally.

      I think you’re right that people are all different and some have more energy. I also think it’s possible a guy fixing up cars on YouTube could be full of shit…?

        Oh it could be. This wasn’t a random YouTube show, it was an established show with i think motortrend but yeah it could be bullshit. However I do know people who are almost like that. Same as people who drink a 30 pack of Busch on a tuesday night and go to work the next morning just fine.

    This is what happens when you’re sleep deprived, you mean to write 13 and write 30. Also known as “flying coach” time dilation slip.

    Bonus points for the creepy privacy invasion.

    You can tell he doesn’t have kids.
    Else he’d be willing to pay a lot of money for 30 hours of uninterrupted relaxing time.

      You really cannot be 100% sure with some of these. Ken Cheng is obvious. This one, not sure. Sounds like.

          Unless he has flying to Kansas or something the flight length is complete bullshit. Looks like its 17-19 hours for west coast airports and at most 22 hours for nyc or Boston

            If he had multiple layovers he could hit 30 hours flight time. However you’re right, a nonstop flight from NYC to Saigon is only like 20 hours or so.

              Amsterdam - Rome - Perth is something like 17 hours on the long part, but the one time I did it I spent 11 hours on the Amsterdam - Rome part due to engine trouble.

              and that’s still not 30

                I flew NYC to Seoul a few times (also the reverse flight) and that one is about the same flight time. Never again will I willingly fly to the other side of the planet. Not without month long stops between each 3000 miles or so.

                  See, your problem is not having a bunch of someone else’s money to burn so that you can fly first class. Economy for 20 hours is agony thanks to the cramped seating.

                  Probably wouldn’t be so bad if we could bring back the 747 design that had a passenger lounge in the upper level.

    Sleep deprivation leads to hallucinations like this.

    I see a too early death in his 30s. it’s called karoshi - death caused by overworking.
