Demolition of any building or system is acceptable when you have a plan for reconstruction. Otherwise it's called "destroying". If other groups or people are going to be responsible for the reconstruction, adequate communication of the plan is critical to its success. #tariffs #politics #strategy

Product idea: A microphone at the dinner table picks up the conversations. An app translates it into a Word Cloud. The word cloud is passed to an LLM that outputs an image that enhances it into a decorative style.

Insight: If someone is OK with not using turn signals when driving and changing lanes, they are probably OK with disregarding your wellbeing in other contexts. Is this sort of driving an indication that that person should not be trusted?

That was probably the most entertaining and consequential #washingtonweek episode. And I've been watching since Gwen was hosting it. Jeffrey Goldberg is becoming a national treasure. #politics

The primary argument for disincentivizing landlords from allowing units to remain vacant is that it directly impacts the city's VIBRANCY. The community is damaged by prioritizing the current rights of property owners. www.kqed.org/news/1203079...

It's official: The Democrat party leadership has no courage nor guiding principles to buttress any courage. There is a difference btw Leadership and Management. The Senate Dems are "managing" their situation. Leadership requires guts and risk and is not always successful. #politics #senate #budget

The fundamental reinforcement/feedback for AI, to avoid destroying us, is to continually improve the community: Family, friends, neighborhood, clubs, churches, cities, states, countries species. This establishes a foundational guidance that leads to most moral structures.

If someone is comfortable with dehumanizing a person or a group of people, they will almost certainly not accept being dehumanized in turn. #politics

Would you ever say "Look at that blue driving down the road" when referring to a car that is blue in color? Feels strange? We all have communities that support us. Services, Emotional, Financial, Intellectual, etc.

If you vote for your candidates like you support your football/basketball/baseball team, you will also have to accept how they hand you losses that directly impact your community, your family and you directly. Government is not a game. There are no teams to take sides on.

I envision a fleet of eVTOLs, autonomously flown, all in a line, dropping water on a wildfire and circling back to land, refuel (new battery), and recharge their water tank. A relentless water barrage. No pilots put at risk. Flies in any weather. The tech is there to fight this scale of wildfire.

Salacious imagery depends upon the transactional mindset to be relevant. Advertising trick: Hot chicks = Clicks When you first consider the community (the context, upon which you live and rely upon for stability and support) the use of salacious methods are quickly perceived as detrimental.

For 2025, let's be discerning about "transactional arguments". These are the anecdotes, the extreme examples that are presented to change your mind about bigger topics. Don't Be Suckered. Think "Context". The contextual argument is closer to discerning the Truth.
