@edzitron Oracle just locked in a $7B Pentagon Enterprise Software Agreement (announced Thurs). Oracle Health has multi B contracts with DoD, VA, and HHS agencies. AI infrastructure demand is not going away and Oracle is the biggest builder. Bad take.
@krugermacro@JSeyff The facts: Jane Street was barred from India for index manipulation via timed pumps/dumps and sued for Terra insider trading that hastened $40B collapse. As ETF AP they materially sway sentiment & price DAILY through arb exploits & hedges. Not neutral practices - predatory.
@goddek@hodgetwins These are the facts, but perhaps, not all of them. Bongino, was doubtless read in to the hidden power structure behind Epstein. He was likely informed that if he did not further the lie, he and everyone close to him would be destroyed.
How many of his critics would do the same?
@caprioleio@token2049 If SHA256 encryption becomes vulnerable. It’s not just Bitcoin that is at risk but all data that is secured through PKI - so all secured data on the planet. There would be a “zero day” vuln mitigation effort globally. Similar to Log4j, EternalBlue, etc.
@MarkChangizi I think this is an appropriate autoimmune response within the body politic. Insofar as doctors and nurses are trusted to administer care for patients impartially, and teachers not indoctrinate children with political violence, raising awareness for public accountability is right.
@MarkChangizi Typically, I would agree with you. But part of the motivation behind shaming those cheering Kirk’s murder is that many of them work in fields like healthcare and education where equanimity, ethics, and judgment are requisites for social trust/contract. Trust has been lost.
Insofar as Intel is a lynchpin in the supply chain enabling national defense - a key part of the defense industrial base, Trump’s involvement as Commander-in-Chief of the armed forces is not unprecedented.
Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson, and FDR exercised far more influence on industry during their presidencies.
