New Sam Bankman-Fried Trial Would Be Huge Waste of Court's Time, Judge Says

A federal judge denied Sam Bankman-Fried's request for a new trial, calling his claims of DOJ witness intimidation "wildly conspiratorial" and unsupported by the record.

Psychology says the men who become genuinely successful aren’t the most driven, the most disciplined, or the most talented, they’re the ones who quietly stopped competing with everyone in the room a long time ago, and learned that the only person worth outworking was the version of themselves from twelve months back
