@TheStalwart Butterfly effect. Humanity never reaches mars or multiplanetary existence in the alternate reality where @ fab25june never spoke out.

I’d love to stand here and tell the American people “we can cut your taxes and increase spending and everything will be fine.”

But I can’t because I’m here to deliver a dose of reality about the ticking debt bomb known as the “Big Beautiful Bill.”

youtube premium is probably one of the best deals out there, but google somehow manages to completely fumble the marketing as usual. they just can’t tell a story to save their lives.

ads free + it has basically spotify on steroids… unlimited music, plus all the remixes, live sets, & obscure tracks you only find on youtube.

but half the people i know have no clue the music part even exists or what even premium actually does. google just can’t get out of its own way when it comes to making good products sound good.

After I did this, they amended the rules so I can’t do it anymore. 😂 👎

US debt downgrade. Scary times. I should buy US debt to protect myself.

I think the stock market currently reflects a probability-weighted average of the net present value of all future free cash flows under various policy scenarios.

This brilliant analysis begs the question: why not 310% tariff? We could make $10T.

According to my own research, a mere 1e21% tariff would provide enough money to build a Dyson sphere.

This annual “track down your 1099/K1” ritual is so dumb.

Billions of hours of wasted time when the IRS should have a website where I enter my EIN/SSN and download them all.

Cursor blew my mind for about 3 days. Then it started getting confused as my codebase got larger.

I switched to Windsurf 20 mins ago. It handled the larger codebase easily. Since they're both VS Code forks, the learning curve was zero.

These tools are amazing but they have zero moat or lock-in. Users will switch to whichever one is best in the moment.

My friend you don’t even make your own food. You’ll still pay a few bucks to use an app.

If you made me come up with the dumbest, most regressive tax policy combo I could think of, I would be incapable of topping No Tax on Crypto + a 25% tax on Canadian/Mexican imported goods.

I can't remember being more painfully aware of the gap between the software I use all day and what is currently possible, let alone what will be possible in a year or two. It feels like being stuck in traffic knowing teleportation exists.

12 yo asked when poverty first became a problem. I told him it was the default — that most animal species are hungry.

@iamyesyouareno @MarioNawfal It comes down to this: do you want America to WIN or do you want America to LOSE.

If you force the world’s best talent to play for the other side, America will LOSE.

End of story.

Imagine if all bills were required to be footnoted with references to which Congressman added a provision to a bill. We could then see from whence the pork comes.

The way it has historically been done, there is no cost to being behind a particularly egregious piece of pork. With this change, there would be a cost to even proposing government waste.
