#DDAY Watch "World War II: From the Frontlines" on Netflix

https://t.co/DVNWxTErKo

Show brings the Second World War to life through vividly enhanced archival footage and voices from all sides of the conflict. The six-episode series, narrated by John Boyega, offers a unique perspective on the war by incorporating colorized footage, immersive sound, and personal stories from those who lived through the conflict.

Really neat development from the unlikely place of gaming peripherals that I appreciate:

Both my mouse (finalmouse) and my keyboard (wooting) don't ship with software but have their entire control panels and firmware upgrade system implemented as websites that use WebUSB.

So much better than shipping random always-on software that needs to be kept up to date. The web always wins.

David Friedberg: It's not rich vs poor, it's makers vs takers.

@friedberg:

“ The great lie is that there are two sides to society, that is the rich and the poor.

And the great truth is that there are two sides that are the makers and the takers.

The lie is that the rich are unfairly rich and the poor are unfairly poor, and therefore, the poor must take from the rich.

But the truth is that it's the takers that tell you that lie, that the real truth is that artists, plumbers, electricians, woodworkers, computer scientists, people that build, people that make from all walks of life, all income levels, all wealth brackets, are the makers.

And the takers are what Sacks calls this intelligentsia, the analysts, the espousers, the armchair mechanics, the critics, the commentators, the politicians. They are the takers.

They are the people that watch the rest of society make stuff, build stuff, specifically doing things that create value for other people in society. That's what a maker is.”

@Steve00007 Are you talking about Hurry Mode here "Too Zoomy" ?

[jay plemons @jayplemons]

The great lie is that society is divided between rich and poor.
The great truth, as David Friedberg puts it, is makers vs takers.

Makers build, create, and deliver real value: houses, software, art, businesses, and everything that moves civilization forward.

Takers watch, criticize, analyze, and politic. They push the lie that the rich hoard unfairly so the poor must seize it… all while positioning themselves to rule the chaos.

As @friedberg tells his kids: “At the end of the day, if you made something and someone else valued it, you were a maker. That was an amazing achievement. That is a great day.”

Takers thrive on division. Makers drive progress.

Time to choose your side.

The concern is simple: when success is penalised and poor outcomes are rewarded, incentives weaken and everyone ends up with a smaller share of the pie.

[Jared Isaacman @rookisaacman]

I bought Shift4 stock, the company I started 27 years ago, that serves predominantly hotels, restaurants, and stadiums, because it was trading at a multi-year low and permissible under my ethics agreement. I sold all SpaceX stock, any indirect equity exposure to it, and any other aerospace-related companies 18 months ago when I was first nominated for the job. A billion-dollar sacrifice I was happy to make to serve my country. I suspect I will be worth much less coming out of public service than going into it-- and that is completely fine!

From @WSJFreeEx via @WSJOpinion: Elon Musk officially entered the canon of the greatest inventors, builders and capitalists not only of our time but arguably of humankind. What a time to be alive. What an extraordinary era to build, writes @EliseStefanik.

if @elonmusk paid 100% of his net worth ($1.4 trillion) as a tax it would only cover federal government spending for 77 days. this isn’t a tax problem…

Hayek argues that socialism is built on the false premise that a single central authority can somehow gather and utilize all the existing knowledge in a society.

[Bad Hombre @Badhombre]

An insanely rigged economy is when someone can work in government their entire life, never produce anything of value, and end up a millionaire with three homes while bemoaning the “oligarchy.”

Edward Snowden said it the best:

"When you say 'I don't care about the right to privacy because I have nothing to hide,' that's no different than saying 'I don't care about freedom of speech because I have nothing to say.'"

"Simply because you are following the law, doesn't mean that you'll be exempt from governmental interference in your private life."
