Historians and political scientists spend decades trying to determine the influence of money in politics and Musk just tweets out "I bought the election"

Elon demanding to speak to the manager to return the election he bought.

"We cannot build bananas in America" is an all timer

Why and how did Microsoft create VS Code? The actual story is amusing because creating VS Code was seen as the least important decision across 3 bold "bets". Scott Guthrie (who heads up Cloud + AI at Microsoft) recalls below. Watch / listen: youtu.be/lDfjPEA4BUM (cont'd)

If you're wondering, in this case "sides with" means "agreed with the legal argument put forward by" and "sent the case back down to a lower court for further adjudication."

Strong "fuck you, make me" energy

I don’t know how anyone in D politics could look at the way Elon’s investment in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race worked AGAINST him and salivate over that same burdened money. People learned nothing from Bloomberg. Or maybe all the wrong things. It’s striking. And disturbing.

I've seen folks talk about how "in four years" they'll be able to get back to their planned projects and I really don't think that's going to work out.

The Federal Aviation Administration deputizes Boeing employees to perform inspections on new airpalnes and approve repairs.

HAWLEY: Let's see the Trump chart. You don't think it's a little bit anomalous that Trump has so many more nationwide injunctions against him? KATE SHAW: A very plausible explanation you have to consider is that he's engaged in much more lawless activity than other presidents

Trump has so paralyzed the federal agencies responsible for protecting civil servants’ rights that federal employees may now be able to win relief directly from courts instead, the 4th Circuit rules. A very good decision for the independent civil service. knightcolumbia.org/documents/9m...

Similarly, some tech friends and I are talking about BURNOUT. We're creating a list to answer "Am I burned out? If so, why?" 1. General: "Do I dread work?" 2. People: "Do I dread dealing with people at work? Do I suddenly have disdain for particular people there?" 1/
