Pont du Gard. Tallest Roman aqueduct still standing. Built in the 1st century AD, almost 50 meters high, limestone blocks stacked with no mortar, carrying water to Nîmes. Two thousand years later, it’s still there over the Gardon river.

better to shit post and be thought a fool than post a trade and remove all doubt

NEW: Every few years, like clockwork, a small coalition of Ruby on Rails developers tries to cancel @dhh, Ruby’s creator, for being “racist” and “transphobic.” Now, they’re at it again. Maybe it’s because he calls retarded things “retarded.” Maybe it’s because he’s written about

Nvidia's piece of the AI bubble is worth more than all of Canada's lumber and beaver pelts.

There should very obviously be a real high-speed train between these cities

We live in the silliest timeline.

Some American companies are complaining that Americans aren’t skilled enough and that they need to import H1B foreigners (among other visas). Few small problems with that: - They don't interview Americans for the job. - They don't post the job publicly. - Because they don’t

All I’m asking is for politicians to put Americans over foreigners. I know it’s a tough ask.

Things you could be executed for 200 years ago in Britain: - Stealing a handkerchief - Cutting down a tree - Impersonating a retired sailor Things you cannot be executed for in Britain today: - Sneaking into the country and randomly stabbing a person to death

Snap spends $5.8 billion a year on soda, which has no nutritional value. I don't want my tax dollars buying other people's soda.

Sounds like DoorDash used massive amounts of illegal labor. If true, they deserve to be shutdown, have all their assets seizing by the state, and have many executives sent to jail. We, as a nation, cannot tolerate this anti-social and parasitical behavior.

Indian staffing firms have been stealing tech jobs for years, but now their scams are coming into the light. H1B is trending and we are seeing political push back against India's scams. We are going to take our American companies back!

"The dullest pencil is sharper than the sharpest mind." It means write your todos down if you want to remember them!

“Convention over configuration” — the most underrated productivity hack ever invented.

Europe would do well to follow Gates on this pivot. The EU is responsible for just 6% of global emissions, but still thinks it's saving the planet by sorting and washing trash by hand, forgoing AC, or deleting emails (lol). Climate doomerism is degrowth nonsense in a nutshell.

Gavin Newsom gave 69,000 CDL licenses to unqualified foreigners; these could be instantly rescinded and would open up 70k jobs.

Mass migration is wrong—it doesn't matter whether it's illegal migration or *legal* migration. "Illegal mass migration" is what we see at the southern border: people storming across, living in hotels on the taxpayer’s dime, draining public resources. It’s lawless and obvious.

"Freezing the rent" is the kind of idea that you have to be mentally retarded to support. You can freeze the rent but you aren't freezing the enormous expenses that property owners have to pay -- expenses which go up every year. As it becomes less and less financially tenable to

My mom narrowly survived 9/11. Several of her friends and coworkers were tragically killed. I don’t normally share this level of detail on Twitter, but given what’s I’m seeing, I feel compelled to share her story (with her permission). My mom, a Jewish immigrant from the
