@RoKhanna @chamath why not just raise income tax rates? because your real intent is not to just “provide healthcare”. you’re masking that you are proposing the creation of, for the first time in the 250 years of this American republic, an organized government seizure of private property from

Thousands of Tesla owners were doxxed and threatened. Dozens of Teslas were set on fire and vandalized. A bunch of Tesla dealerships were targeted with violence. Tim Walz hasn’t condemned this coordinated domestic terrorism. Instead, he’s practically celebrating and egging it

The wife of the owner of the LA Clippers made a $1 million political donation to Newsom. You just can’t make this stuff up.

Truly amazing! Columbia decided to hold its students accountable to the laws of the school. They are seeing the consequences of their actions. Something these kids were most likely never taught. Good SAT scores and self-entitlement do not supersede the law. I am sure you would
Not only did Columbia make the horrific decision to mobilize NYPD on their own students, but the units called in have some of the most violent reputations on the force. NYPD had promised the city they wouldn’t deploy SRG to protests. So why are these counterterror units here?

Becoming a founder means becoming a neural control system for a corporate meta-organism. Ownership ensures coupling between personal and corporate loss functions. The company effectively becomes an augmentation of oneself. One is then effectively a homo-techno-capital cyborg.

@pulley If you are hiring a head of engineering or product, work with Paradigm ( https://t.co/TdzyJtDFLw). We were looking for great, and the search wasn't easy. Most firms would have given up. Matt and Carley pressed on. Find that partner who is willing to go the extra mile.
