The truest words was from Nietzsche. He said once a man knows too much, he can't fit in anywhere. That's a curse of awareness. You've seen too much. And you can't go back to how it was before. Awareness, it isolates you. And, it's the price of clarity. Try and argue with that.

@elonmusk Thank you for tha.

Space connectivity, compute, and space data centers, will dominate competition. It won't even be close.

@DallasXCEO I appreciate all of my colleagues at @DallasExpress for holding all of the people responsible for what we see and deal with everyday accountable. The truth matters. Join us.

@DallasExpress Super excited to hear Chris Putnam address the warriors at the Dallas County GOP. He too is a warrior for good. And, he's a Dallas resident. It's time to band together and win Dallas.

I am glad this is getting national press. This is a travesty; personally, I think it comes close to a crime. The full story is yet to be told. But just wait, I bet greed did this. Shameful.

A Dallas mural, known as the “Whaling Wall 82” and created by artist Robert Wyland, was painted over ahead of the World Cup.

Wyland has filed a $25 million lawsuit against FIFA and others. https://t.co/innNWF2Pcm

@elonmusk and @Tesla have fulfilled and exceeded their promises to Austin. At first, Tesla officially only committed to creating 5,000 jobs. Tesla now employs over 16,500 workers at Gigafactory Texas in southeast Austin. Elon expects the facility to scale to 60k. Let him grow.

Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson's statement in response to both the Dallas Mavericks and Dallas Stars signing agreements to move their arenas out of Downtown. In very clear language, he is advocating for tearing down the iconic Dallas City Hall designed by I. M. Pei, built 1978.

"1.2 Trillion may be low." Take it from an old man and a chick. I jest. This is how expert opinions are getting out in 2026. And, I'm here for it all.

"SpaceX AI is doing something that Anthropic and Open AI both didn't and couldn't do... what is xAI doing? xAI is building data centers, right now on Earth, that are larger, more productive, and they're built faster and at lower cost than any other data centers in the world... so when you look at that and you actually plot that out, 1.8 trillion may be low." @TeslaLarry

The @DallasExpress invites you to a public forum examining one of the most consequential issues facing our region: the rapid growth of the H-1B visa program in North Texas, what it means for communities, our economy, and our future. Bring it!

@MontyBennett Absolutely, you hit the nail on the head. We couldn't take it anymore in Plano. Thanks to TX State Senator Brandon Creighton's SB2, and TX Governor Greg Abbott, we secured Texas Education Freedom Accounts for our two 9 year olds. Next year they'll be attending private school.

Proud of this editorial team gaining World Cup media access for the largest tournament in the world. Congratulations, @DallasExpress!

What would Ronald Regan say if when he was in office, the USSR was building the most sophisticated United States military electronics? These days, China builds it all... 🤔

.@PalmerLuckey: American companies don't actually have engineers anymore.

"American companies have been hollowed out."

"We're not teaching engineers how to be engineers anymore."

"We're not teaching designers how to actually design things to be manufactured."

"We're teaching them how to be high-level design shops that put together a design package, that gets sent to the real engineers in China—and they actually figure out how to do the work."

"People are turning into architecture astronauts."

"They pick components, and they put them in a nominal layout."

"But the real work of—how am I actually going to put this together? How am I going to build a manufacturing line to make this? How am I going to need to figure out how to do the one, two, three, four, five different revisions of this board to pass radio emissions and interference standards? That's all done in China. So they are the real engineers."
