In a negotiation when two people compete, both lose.

If one collaborates and the other competes, the collaborator loses.

The only outcome where everybody wins is when everybody collaborates.

All world leaders should know this.

This. Early last year I went back to posting on my self-hosted blog (link in bio) and not depending on big tech.

We need to recover the distributed power of the internet.
the internet starting to re-fragment into having Actual Websites again as centralized social media self-destructs is unironically one of the absolute best, most positive things happening rn

If you have the slightest understanding of how the internet works, the good, the bad and the ugly, this is both bad and ugly.
Hi, I'm the guy who used to oversee the federal government's agency IT telecommunications contracts. This is extremely bad. There is absolutely no need for this. Not only is it a huge security exposure, but the simplest explanation for this is that it is meant to be a security exposure.

This is the way. 👏👏👏🎛️🎚️
Next year, the EU will require cars to have buttons & dials -- not just touchscreens -- to get a top safety rating.

This is a great move. Drivers can fiddle with knobs & buttons without taking their eyes off the road, but they can't do that with touchscreens.

(Even better: Tesla will hate this)
Cars will need fewer screens and more buttons to earn five-star safety rating in Europe
Euro NCAP will release new testing guidelines in 2026.

I really hope Apple returns to making their machines easy to repair and upgrade as it did at the beginning of this century.

And somehow Palantir will come out on top in that battle.
The greatest business battle EVER to be fought will come when President Elon starts trying to implement AI for federal processes.

The battle will be fought over which company’s AI will be used by the feds.

This is a zero sum battle that will create more chaos than this country has ever seen
