The “right side of history” folks have been wrong on forced school closures, origins of COVID, forced masking, abolition of the police, puberty blockers and sex change surgeries for minors, de-tracking in public schools, housing first with “barrier free” approach to homelessness, inflation, legalizing hard drugs, and more. Why are we still listening to them?

You threw $30 mill to get rid of the only congressman I liked and thought I was gonna support a single republican after that? That was a declaration of war on the libertarians and we're gonna make it very clear that you can't win without us. Fuck. All of. You.

Wait, is Office back? not trying to make Microsoft 365 replace the word we all use anymore?
We’re building Copilot as a new OS for work that spans every model, every form factor, and every task. Today, we’re announcing our biggest update to Copilot to date, bringing four things together: · Autopilot: proactive and long-running agent built for the enterprise · Code: build apps with Copilot, hosted inside your company’s tenant · Home: Chat + Cowork together · Office: now fully embedded in Copilot (and Copilot embedded in Office, of course!) Plus, you can invoke Copilot in Teams, and we’re introducing Today, a proactive experience that surfaces the most important information from across M365 without needing to ask for it. The way we work is changing and so are our workflows. This update brings AI into that flow, from answering a question, to building an app, to getting work done on your behalf.

"Pynchonian" is the perfect word I didn't know was completely missing from my vocabulary. Admittedly, only a Gravity's Rainbow reader, but with just that I get it...
Unfortunately for Republicans, the situation is very easy to describe: 1. Trump won a cost-of-living election 2. Then he publicly announced a plan to raise the price of imports 3. Then he even-more-publicly started a war that raised the price of gas 4. Meanwhile, he got rich on crypto scams, while engaging in downright Pynchonian misadventures with the reflecting pool and ballroom, which sent the unmistakeable signal that "I care more about random bullshit than America's money problems ... and also I'm not even good at executing on the random bullshit"

Maybe there's something you don't entirely know, so pushing back right now would not be helpful? I get that French want Mistral to be successful, but boy there seems to be a lot of vitriol that strikes me as somewhere between mean and jealous. also just pointing out you said to get some competent marketing. I happen to think I'm pretty good.

The simple answer is that Washington Democrats are taxing all the talent and businesses our of the state. Instead of a growth mindset they have a class warfare mindset.
What's going on in Washington State? Housing supply is going absolutely vertical. And just broke 29,000 listings in August 2026. That's up 128% in the last three years. And the highest level for August back to 2017. Homeowners are fleeing Washington State in droves, and tech layoffs are surging. The locals who want to stay are priced out of the market, with the typical home costing $591,000. This is a nasty combination for home values, which are already declining. Washington ranks our biggest 'downward forecast' state in 2027. Track the data for your ZIP: reventure.app/map

Sane
Its a bit under the radar, but @GovernorVA and @GovSherrillNJ are quietly steering Democrats' data center policies back to a sane place: No moratoria Let communities decide No NDAs or subsidies Prioritize local construction jobs open.substack.com/pub/blueho…

Paging @jeffsand !
"People in tech don't understand how actually awesome Walmart is." - @benthompson "One, their stores are like this crazy dystopian experience." "Two, if you go in their stores, their app is unbelievable. It will guide you through the aisles to tell you exactly where to go to get the thing that you need. It's amazing. It's the best in-store app by far compared to anyone else." "If what you want to buy is in their store, you can get it delivered in an hour. Who knew? No one in tech who's going to be buying stuff or who is technically inclined through ChatGPT actually knows how good the Walmart e-commerce experience is."

Libertarians, conservatives, moderates, and common sense Americans…. You just listed everyone that you and Trump have alienated by cheering on more war, covering up for pedophiles, voting to increase spending, and trying to bribe everyone with $5000 checks.
