A robot is having a better year than me.

His name is Digit. Humanoid, two legs, works in warehouses. Yesterday his company, Agility, announced it's going public. $2.5 billion. It even has a ticker now: AGLT.

Let me read you Digit's resume.

Already employed. Amazon, Toyota, companies that have never once emailed me back. Over $300 million in orders on the books. 30+ customers lined up. A whole factory in Oregon going up to build thousands more of him a year.

The universe didn't even ask for my resume. It hired Digit.

And it's not just the warehouses. This week Alphabet joined the Dow, the 30 companies that supposedly stand for the whole American economy.

To make room, they dropped Verizon. A phone company, out. Google, in.

Even the stock market's starting lineup is just tech now.

Then there's Micron. It makes the memory chips inside basically everything, and yesterday it quadrupled its revenue and sailed past $1 trillion.

AI's eating so much memory there's barely any left for the rest of us. My next laptop's going to cost a kidney.

Me? No ticker, no IPO, none of that.

Just you. A legit person who opened up this email on purpose.

I'd take that over everything Digit's got.

See you tomorrow.
