Did you hear the story of the one man $1.8 billion business built by AI as portrayed in the @nytimes.com? Turns out basically every aspect of that story is bullshit and the story should be retracted.

The people of Minneapolis and Minnesota strike again.

Can this be a solution??
‘Move fast and break things’ coming home to roost. Nothing is ever taken seriously, even DOD agreements! - and lots of failing upward.
Your ability to articulate a detailed PRD is what stands out to me from the above. For folks using these tools, that’s the differentiator.
It’s heartening to see a company demonstrate principles — and stick by them in the face of threats.

This has nothing to do with fraud.
The agents Trump allegedly sent to investigate fraud are shooting protesters and arresting children. His DOJ is gutting the U.S. Attorney’s Office and crippling their ability to prosecute fraud. And every week Trump pardons another fraudster.
This. Video *can* be thought provoking, but short-form videos are often just another dopamine delivery channel. Everything is a meme, a smack down or a hot take. We are losing the ability to read and understand the written word.
Is anyone joining X now, or is it simply that everyone *was* there, and had invested in building an audience there, before it was hijacked? I can’t believe it would ever be viable if trying to grow as a startup today.
The Verge famously touts its no-anonymous-sourcing policy as one of the reasons it should be viewed as a top tier publication. Hah. How could anyone think that the ‘story of Mpls’ at this moment is whether some folks find Will annoying?
And the World’s Greatest Deliberative Body will have nothing to say about it. 🤡
So SCOTUS, with its fabricated-out-of-thin-air immunity doctrine, has actually made American presidents less accountable than LITERAL royalty.
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social
Completely understand and not meant as a criticism, apologies.
I’ve filled out the google form for the feed 3x over the last month with no luck - not sure anyone is monitoring it.
This would be received better if you could point to ONE THING YOU DID to end this brutal occupation - but that's impossible because you have been in DC making sure all Trump's MAGA judges sail through confirmation. Minnesota has suffered and earned more from its next Governor.
Annnd there she goes, now that other people have done the real work and she thinks the crisis is over, running to the head of the parade
That the NYT still writes this stuff when everyone knows that Musk is full of horseshit (including the reporters at the NYT!) is honestly shocking at this point. They think you're stupid. They know he never does anything he promises but they write it anyway. Utter trash.
I have to believe that the Minnesotans that actively like Klobuchar must have seen her at a hockey game or something, while paying zero attention to her record.
I genuinely have no idea how to convey this to the American people, but I think the biggest impediment to any kind of immigration reform is that people are convinced that "legal" and "illegal" are immutable, intrinsic categories instead of a rapidly-shifting arbitrary constellation of regulations.
As you curse MAGA judges, also curse the Democrats who put them on the bench. archive.thinkprogress.org/amy-klobucha...
Minneapolis has real Boston 1775 vibes lately. No surprise that John Adams—a moderate farmer and lawyer, yet the principal agitator for independence—was radicalized against the English crown by its Eye of Sauron-like brutality against his city.
Was blown away by the Waymo experience in San Francisco, and once tried, never opened the Uber app again there.
67% of the homicides in Minneapolis and 50% of the homicides in all of Minnesota this year have been committed by federal agents.
Read that again.
If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.
Democracy dies in oligarchy.
‘Independent’ is the trick here - not joining someone else’s walled garden and losing ownership of your audience. Should eventually be something like a Wordpress plugin that links to a subscription package/model, or sit at the infrastructure layer, for someone like Cloudflare.
