We are deeply saddened by the passing of Tommy John, a veteran of 26 MLB seasons who helped revolutionize recovery from pitching injuries in the 1970s.

John broke in with Cleveland as a 20-year-old in 1963 and made his last appearance for the Yankees at age 46 in 1989, also pitching for the White Sox, Dodgers, Angels, and Athletics. The left-hander won 288 games, made 4 All-Star teams and anchored 3 pennant-winning teams, while twice finishing as a runner-up for the Cy Young Award. His 700 games started rank 8th on the all-time list.

After John injured his elbow in 1974, he received the first ulnar collateral ligament replacement surgery from Dr. Frank Jobe. John returned to pitch in 1976, then won 20 games three times in four years from 1977-80.

He would go on to pitch 14 of his 26 seasons after the procedure that is now known as Tommy John Surgery, a measure that has helped extend pitching careers in the more than half a century since it was first performed.

He was 83.

It’s pretty remarkable that someone with this absurd level of political talent could have just continued to indefinitely waste away as a backbencher in the New York Assembly if he hadn’t decided to launch what was then a long shot bid for mayor under a near-perfect set of macro circumstances.

Makes me optimistic about how many other sources of untapped talent there are out there in local and state governments around the country that just lack the opportunity (or currently, the willpower) to attempt to make a similar leap.

Mamdani is a generational talent, but the bench is almost certainly deeper than we think it is.

So the same sales pitch as with the rest of star wars:

"Remember this cool thing that we decanonised? Well we've copied its aesthetics in the shallowest possible way, then told our own shit story with it!"

I renew my appeal for an end to the ongoing violence against the Palestinian civilian population in the West Bank, and I urgently call on the international community to work toward advancing the two-state solution, for a just and lasting peace.

No. Palantir was founded explicitly for post-9/11 intelligence work. VCs largely rejected it due to long government sales cycles. Thiel supplied most early capital (~$30M), but In-Q-Tel’s ~$2M investment and the CIA as sole paying customer from roughly 2005-2008 supplied the validation, revenue, and product feedback that kept it alive. Without that government foundation the company almost certainly would not have survived in recognizable form.

You can buy Elon Musk and X, you can buy Facebook and Instagram, you can buy TikTok and Google, you can buy the media, you can buy politicians and celebrities, but you can't buy the people.

You tried to erase Palestine, but the world has become Palestine.

Thank you Netherlands.
