Well I suppose I learned last summer that life is short, definitely too short for holding grudges.  So when @GamebredFighter said he wanted to sit down and break bread of course I took him up on it.  Today he came to Wisconsin, sat down had some dinner and chatted it up.  Turns out we have more in common than different 👊👊👊  Felt great to bury the hatchet and make a new friend.  Life is too short to hold grudges, bury hatchets and move one with your life.  So glad Jorge was able to come to Wisconsin today.

Crazy how Anthropic is the safety risk for not wanting to use Claude for autonomous weapons or mass surveillance

I’d bet @RepThomasMassie is right, again, on all three.

With all this tech drama lately, isn't it the perfect moment for a Silicon Valley reboot? The market feels ripe for a new era.

All he wanted was reasonable debate, but still the radical left celebrated the cold-blooded murder of Charlie Kirk

Charlie Kirk was more committed to peaceful, open dialogue with those who disagreed with him than anyone I know. God blessed him with immense gifts, and he used them boldly and without fear. He knew the risks he was taking, but he did it anyway because he loved his kids & felt a responsibility to the nation they would inhabit. I traveled the entire country with him last year, we spent 1x1 time together in Ohio two weeks ago, spoke to him again 2 days ago. He’s long warned of the rise of political violence & the growing culture of assassination, when few were willing to listen, with a clarity of vision unlike anyone I’ve known. Completely and utterly devastated.

Catherine Hanaway: Kehoe’s pick is a slap in the face to Missouri. We don’t need a WashU board member who trains abortion doctors, mutilates kids, votes against right to carry, and cheers on glyphosate. Missouri deserves better’

Rumor in Jefferson City: Kehoe just appointed a former Bayer attorney as Missouri’s next AG. We’ll know for sure when the announcement drops in minutes. If true, Big Ag just got a big seat at the table. @askrsb @NickBSchroer

HOLY FUCKING SHIT ***THIS*** IN THE GODDAMN CLASSIFIED INDEX THAT HAS BEEN CLASSIFIED FOR 9 GODDAMN YEARS **THIS** IS WHERE THEY COOKED UP THE 'CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE' HOAX THAT CREATED THE LEGAL PREDICATE COVER FOR THE ENTIRE CENSORSHIP INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX ‼️‼️‼️🚨🚨🚨

gemini 2.5 pro is so good that it's actually a problem for google's valuation

Palmer Luckey has good instincts: the future of America’s industrial base will be built in Ohio.

Woke up because my AI controlled bed is too cold. Went to adjust temperature and I can’t because the Eight Sleep app is currently broken. Can’t adjust by hand because I have a Pod3, not the upgraded Pod4 with physical controls. Now I am stuck in a cold bed. This feels dystopian.

Introducing DolphinGemma, an LLM fine-tuned on many years of dolphin sound data 🐬 to help advance scientific discovery. We collaborated with @dolphinproject to train a model that learns vocal patterns to predict what sound they might make next. It’s small enough (~400M params) to run directly on Pixel 9 phones used in the ocean! A very cool step toward enabling interspecies communication.

I've had a change of heart on federal income tax. On the surface, it's just a way for the government to generate revenue—it has to get its funding from somewhere. But I now see that the method of taxation itself fundamentally alters the relationship between the government and its people. When the government relies on taxing individual income, it shifts from serving its citizens to exploiting them as a revenue source. This dynamic creates an inherent friction, where the government no longer answers to the people but to the system that extracts from them. And if you look around, it's clear—whatever our tax dollars are funding, it’s not serving us. This is what modern economists fail to grasp when they dismiss tariffs, sales taxes, or luxury taxes as harmful. The structure of taxation matters, not just the amount collected. The income tax distorts governance itself—and it needs to go.
