Had a convo with Claude today about feature prioritization. I would describe the experience as soulless vapid pragmatism. I screamed “where’s your goddamn passion man?!” until I caved realizing it was right about everything 😩

When we use American big tech our content becomes the subject of foreign laws, business whims and AI training - with zero transparency. This of course is nonsense.

We can’t rely on American big tech to do the right thing with our data. I’ve started building a Google Docs alternative 100% hosted on servers in Canada. It’s early but please give it a try and let me know what you think. #canada 🇨🇦

In the 90s, I spent a year studying industrial design only because I enjoyed how technical the drawing was.

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

Yes the art is ready. Suit up.
Defend Greenland.

Christmas 1990. I got a Nintendo Gameboy and AC/DC Razors Edge on cassette. There was a blizzard in my hometown and we couldn't go outside for 3 days. I was 13 - I want to go back.

Ok here’s an idea - let’s string up the old men hell bent on destroying the world and any humanity that might currently exist. Then, every country puts a woman in charge. We give it 50 years and see what happens. Who’s in?
