Insanely cool

Brilliant idea. Let’s take money from the world’s best capital allocators and pump it into a $72B fraud machine.

We are going to red-pill all the builders. Keep it up. For USA to thrive, we have to overcome govt idiocy - small and medium businesses that are now vast-majority-right have been dealing with this unfair BS for decades with nobody to speak for them, especially in CA.

Absurd regulations are strangling hard tech startups with only negative outcomes for society

Peter Reinhardt is one of the best founders I’ve ever met. We must take action to reduce regulatory overhead and enable engineers like him to solve problems for our country.

“One regulator wanted to add $100,000 of extra certification testing per engine family … a total of $27m extra certification for the (electric truck) startup. And keep in mind that this is to certify that a device—whose sole reason for existence is to cut pollution by >90%, and which has demonstrably done so across nearly 100,000 miles of testing and operations.”

“We couldn’t get engagement from the unit” brutal

I literally have @taskletai filling out this launch form for me using computer use right now, while I do other things

Wow

Very cool!

Good decision, wildfire doesn’t care about jurisdictional borders

It's always incredible to me when people imply that NEPA is needed to protect the public interest. Very often, NEPA lawsuits are brought with explicit anti-humanistic intent. As an example, one of the top NEPA plaintiffs is the Center for Biological Diversity. The first quote below is from a New Yorker profile of the CBD entitled "No People Allowed." They explicitly say they plan to "inflict severe economic pain." The second quote is from a High Country News profile. They say they would like to "bring industrial civilization to its knees." Are these goals in the public interest? The far left pretends NEPA is a good government law, that it's about transparency and democracy. In reality, it impedes democracy because it means elected officials and the agencies they oversee cannot implement policies that are good for large majorities of the population. Allowing weird and anti-human outlier people to impose a veto on government decisions via forever litigation is not in the public interest. Democracy and the public interest requires effective government, and NEPA is one of the biggest impediments to that. Repealing NEPA is in fact in the public interest. I suppose people are free to disagree with that assessment but the idea that NEPA defenders are champions of the public interest is absurd.

Preach @sacca. 141 Democrats voted no on “Fix Our Forests” on the House floor this morning, which would expand categorical exclusions from NEPA for up to 10,000 acres for prescribed burns.

Florida has done more controlled burns in the past year than California has done in the past 50 years.

Caught up with firefighter friend of mine today: “man we’ve been wanting to burn that area around Eaton and Henninger Flats above Altadena forever, but the community wouldn’t let us cuz they don’t wanna see or smell smoke” Man. Can’t tell you how many times I heard this over the years.
