Three Branches of Government is what our Framers intended to act in good faith. What happens when the President and the Supreme Court act in bad faith? https://t.co/t5j5o88uH7

@Caldos_Matar Governor Spanberger made a mandate when she first came into office that statewide law-enforcement cannot work with ICE. In the footage it appeared to be that he handed Police a U.S. passport.

These are all programs that Trump has cut funding for and I’m curious where all this money went! Why aren’t we asking questions. Why isn’t Congress asking questions! 🤬

An interesting consequence of productivity gains as a result of newly introduced agentic tooling is that it seems to invert the standard time discount on labor. The typical assumption is that an hour today is worth more than an hour a year from now. But, if the hour a year from now is 10x more productive, the discount flips and the future hour is much more useful. Rationally, one might expect to stop spending the hours of today on work that becomes much cheaper, redirecting that time towards accumulating durable, compounding assets that aren’t subject to the time discount inversion (e.g. capital, trust, mindshare).

Consider Brunelleschi and the Duomo of Florence. If Brunelleschi learned that within the year, a crew of engineers equipped with hydraulic cranes would magically appear, he’d be likely to stop laying bricks. He may spend more time refining the dome’s geometry or thinking about how to best change the dome’s design to accommodate these new tools.

There’s probably two caveats here – firstly (and most obviously), this only applies where productivity is compounding fast enough to flip the discount. Furthermore, this is hard to project–certain spaces may incur this inversion only some N% of the time–and experimenting may not be viable when the penalty of an undershoot or miscalibrated prediction has exponential downside.

Secondly, some games are Red Queen’s Races. Failing to produce in the short-term would foreclose the long-term payoff. Consider Brunelleschi, who’s now competing with the hypothetical, equally-acclaimed renaissance architect Ihcsellenurb. Brunelleschi and Ihcsellenurb are competing for a grant from a wealthy patron who’s unaware of the incoming cranes, instead intending to award the grant based on visible quarterly progress. Brunelleschi might know the cranes are coming, yet still be forced to lay bricks, as without this grant, he’d be unable to pay the crane operators when they arrive.

Seemingly, this model only works when an actor can afford short-term output illegibility in pursuit of a better long-term output. My sense is that the distribution of these actors is barbelled. On one hand, entrenched incumbents with reservoirs of trust and capital are able to absorb quiet quarters (Apple, for instance). On the other hand, small players can afford illegibility simply because nobody cares enough to punish it.

It seems the losers of this game sit in the middle of the barbell; this makes sense, given it’s the only segment where short-term legibility is (1) required and (2) existential. Incumbents and upstarts alike can absorb misses in a way that the squeezed middle can’t. Private markets will see two middle-of-the-barbell companies, where one is externally missing whilst the other seems to just keep winning, and reward the one with the legibly positive result. So, the middle must survive by laying soon-to-be-obsolete bricks, simply to keep up in the Red Queen’s Race

Surprise. Surprise. Even Peter Thiel fled the U.S. to Argentina. He enrolled his kids in school there. Will his co, Palantir follow w/the 375million U.S. citizen's social security numbers & personal data of living U.S. citizens and dead ones. as well. A scammers dream.

BREAKING: In a humiliating move, Donald Trump's Chief of Staff just asked JD Vance to get off of Twitter because he was behaving beneath the office of the Vice Presidency. MAGA is in extreme disarray. Good.

@sherrodburner Les Wexner is not a co-conspirator--he funded & participated in the decades of sx trafficking of girls/women worldwide. Without Wexner, Epstein, Maxwell, Trump could not have committed massive crimes that damaged the lives of >1k. No man/woman should ever vote for @SenJonHusted.

This is so dangerous my fellow Americans. This is a very nonpartisan issue. This is about DANGER to America and Americans. This is a wasteland until we vote this down. Make sure that you take all your friends and family to the polls no matter what. In 2026 voting is power.

Trump, after having a 90 min phone call with Putin, puts out a truth social that he is considering withdrawing all troops from Germany. Something sinister is going on between them. It’s time for “concerned” Republicans to speak out

Here you go MAGA, your calculations were slightly off. Hopefully you’ll have a bit of humility to understand that we’re all in this together— we’re Americans and we care for our country. We care for our service men/women, and we care for our communities. https://t.co/wR3M6t2O09
