Why does this matter? I think it comes down to fundamentals. When you do long term investments, you look at “fundamentals”, because at the end of the day, those are the real value creation mechanisms when all the fluff of market hype is corrected for.

Marketing and perception can drive a lot of capital movement (ahem sv) but once ppl wise up to the created myths, all you have left are balance sheets real math. A great example is tsla crashes and hype as well as openAI sucking (vs DeepSeek)

Also maybe this my long winded way of saying geeze i wonder when the US capital market gonna collapse but I guess that’s why all the tech ceo and vc’s are begging the President of Corruption to use policies to save them from actually having to compete on fundamentals..

“Yay free market capitalism except when I’m losing then it’s policy rigged nationalistic monopolies aka socialism for billionaires “ 😜

The worst of “dumb America things”

- put AI in front of everything
- no medical training but think they are smarter than doctors
- conspiracy level alternative medicine
- injecting ppl randomly with bleach
- exorbitant fraud level $$$ “medical” treatment $$$

My bet is Brain Dead Kennedy will have FDA approve this

What kind of parents tell their kids they should be thankful they took them to the hospital when they are sick and that you now owe them your life…

Billionaire bro-liarch openly offering to buy a winner to be their pawn.

“Importantly, there are hundreds of million of dollars of capital available to back a competitor to Mamdani that can be put together overnight (believe me, I am in the text strings and the WhatsApp groups) so that a great alternative candidate won’t spend any time raising funds. So, if the right candidate would raise his or her hand tomorrow, the funds will pour in,” he added.

“In May, the White House demanded that Ice arrest 3,000 people a day.”

Why is this a goal and incentive?

I think it should be obvious that people don’t walk around with immigration status taped to their forehead. So….

“The Guardian reported that on Saturday senior Ice officials urged officers to “turn the creative knob up to 11” when it comes to enforcement, including by arresting undocumented people whom officials may happen to encounter – here termed “collaterals” – while serving arrest warrants for others.”

They are proud of this. So anyone thinking this is normal should really check their ability to Math properly

“As of Tuesday, ICE has officially made more at-large arrests in the first few weeks of President Trump’s presidency than the entire last year under the previous administration.”

This should not come as a surprise. They can say every non-white person’s ID is fake?

What then?

Maybe people are waking up to the grift? This is like the NFT hype cycle all over again

“The boss of Klarna, a Swedish buy-now, pay-later provider, recently admitted that he went too far in using the technology to slash customer-service jobs, and is now rehiring humans for the roles.”

@feld lol… that’s not accurate.

“adequate notice” and “judicial review” are hardly “The right to a fair and public trial”

Hm. So now he can officially deport or put anyone in camps. They say it’s illegal immigrants but how would you know without due process?

Uh…. We have a wat now? 😨

Everyone in software have met at least one (usually many) overly confident n00b who thought he could rewrite the whole thing he didn’t understand.

Someone should send them the Joel On Software link… just unbelievable
