@dhh They will try to make that illegal too

@vednig @eladgil Ita not about the board

But if there was a proper board he'd still be in

The AI controllists got Jensen out. Next stop, 20 years of jail gor using local AIs

[PilotaProbator @ProbatorAviator]

@micsolana But he called to one professor and promised to maybe apologize some day

And allowed in the same call the professotär to criticize him

Youbare too quick to judge!

Missed the free fable credits last time around so finally getting to play with it today

Makes me so crazy that someone decided to build trains with too little space. If you are going to spend tens of millions on trains, make them at least good.

@l3s6vr9 I love how estonia is subsidying their software engineers by doubling their pre-tax salary

All countries should take the same approach and to all income

@KenCCheng @micsolana This prof got the call that he needs to shut up.

@Dan83795675 @PalmerLuckey @micsolana @grok You have probably killed more than 5,000 people by not giving all of your money to help poor people in Africa.

@Briankeating @micsolana And as you are facing the heat from the Threads people you have to come to publicly defend Scott?

You even said he is gracious enough to let you criticize him. What a joke!

[PilotaProbator @ProbatorAviator]

@Briankeating @micsolana He said it twice, in two different podacasts, and comes out after there is financial and reputational backlash to him.

There is no way it is an accident and you are a joke to bend over for him.

[PilotaProbator @ProbatorAviator]

@micsolana "Despite disagreeing with my criticism, Scott offered to defend my academic freedom and my right to criticize him."

That was the craziest part. Prof. Keating is happy to keep his job and needs to publicly come to defend his bully.

[PilotaProbator @ProbatorAviator]

@PermaDelusional Still here

[PilotaProbator @ProbatorAviator]

@fuchsdanielt @Briankeating @peterboghossian @profgalloway The point that Galloway allowed Keating to critirize him is just amazing. Anything else would be totalitarian and just the idea to post about it and think it is generous is ridiculous

It is not an honest mistake from Galloway to go say the thing twice in public appearances

[PilotaProbator @ProbatorAviator]

He said it twice in two different public appearances. He coming back to you (and others), crying about how people misunderstand him, when shit hits the fan makes him a worse person, not better

[Prof. Brian Keating @Briankeating]

UPDATE: Scott Galloway reached out to me earlier today and asked me to call him. I'm glad I did.

I've read @profgalloway's books, listened to his podcasts, and appreciated his willingness to confront campus antisemitism and debate people he vigorously disagrees with, including @BenShapiro with comity (and more than a little comedy).

That's why his recent comments about Elon Musk surprised and troubled me.

My central criticism was that Scott called Musk a "traitor to the West" while invoking Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, who were executed for espionage.

I think it was a careless statement, but I don't think Scott is calling for Musk's execution. Too many people on this platform are making that accusation, but it's an oversimplification. He told me he explicitly opposes capital punishment. I still believe the analogy was overblown.

We also discussed what actually happened with Starlink and Starshield in Ukraine. What was restricted, when, by whom, and under whose authority? I agree with him that we need to know what actually happened for transparency's sake. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.

Scott acknowledged that if Musk was legitimately enforcing a commercial agreement, not meddling in wartime policies as a private citizen, the accusation of treachery would be unwarranted. I hope that if that occurs, he will retract it publicly.

We agree that serious accusations require serious evidence.

I raised Scott's role as a UC Regent because I believe those entrusted with governing the best university on the planet deserve particular scrutiny. I never called for his removal, nor do I want him removed.

Scott explained why that framing troubled him. I listened, and I understand his concerns better.

Despite disagreeing with my criticism, Scott offered to defend my academic freedom and my right to criticize him.

As a professor, I teach students to revise their conclusions when confronted with new evidence. Today I was reminded that professors must also reconsider their own approach, too.

I stand by the substance of my criticism. But my tone should have been more collegial.

Our conversation strengthened my respect for Scott's generosity and commitment to the University of California, a system that transformed both our lives. As a two-time native son of the UC system, I think Scott will play a vital role on that august board.

Lastly, and most remarkably, two podcast hosts managed to have a contentious discussion and find common ground without recording another podcast about it.

A first in (unrecorded) history.

@Michael_Druggan @1thousandfaces_ Generational wealth usually needs multiples of that as there is supposed to be more descendants than one that need to live off in the next generation

And even more in the one after that...

@beffjezos You should bever donate to them anyways

Not even going into their editorial decisions, they actively are trying to mold the world to fit their worldview

They spend 1/3 of their money on funding NGOs
