So what exactly was the defeat? How did it work? Maybe they simply made it possible for vehicle owners to program their own vehicles, in which case the owners should be held responsible, not Cummins?

I argue that Twitter is far superior now to it's previous incarnation. It's no longer controlled by a certain political viewpoint and now encourages all free speech. I find it extremely useful, much more so than any other source n

This is why free speech is so important. Most platforms now ban speech that doesn't match their politics, but thankfully X / Twitter does allow free speech. Support it and use that tool.

I was poverty level growing up according to Uncle Sam... I received FAFSA loans and grants for college. My dad was a poverty level pastor who rented a duplex for us four kids and my mom stayed at home.

Farmer here. Enormous US government ag regulations severely harm both farmers and innovation in farming. For example, did you know that there are only four meat processors in the United States due to USDA regulations (full regulatory captur

False. In industries with low levels of government regulation you can move very quickly out of poverty. It is only in areas where existing businesses obtain regulatory capture (meat processing, medical, etc) and prevent competition that soc

Right to repair for anything we buy is essential and customers need the right to access software they have purchased.

US regulators under the Biden administration have begun persecuting those on the other side of the political spectrum.

We MUST get right to repair as not having it deeply widens the inequality gap. I am a conservative Republican, and this legal change will do a lot to resolve legitimate grievances the left has been pushing on.

When inflation happens and then goes back down, prices remain high unless DEFLATION happens... this "study" and article are just proclaiming a specific anti-business worldview without actually looking at the true cause... most gov

Free speech is truly under attack. I am glad Elon has a platform that allows controversial ideas to be heard. Every other platform is in lockstep with the woke and politically correct crowd. You can't have science without truly dissent

Does Duke receive substantial public funding? Is Duke using this funding to force their political views on others? Seems wrong.

Basecamp is the best tool out there, I used it for fourteen years to build an org from one person to two hundred and seventy employees.

Super scummy to drop a very good platform like Basecamp that your whole org loves because you personally disagree with the politics of someone there... Especially when you are spending the public's money. I would never donate to Duke a

Everyone should read "Superintelligence". OpenAI is rushing towards a truly terrifying outcome that in most scenarios includes the extinction of the human species.

Only a very poorly run org like Netflix would need four months to have a show start in season 4 instead of season 1. Season 1 episode 1 was one of the best of the show... Netflix dumbed the show down later.

Why is it all about imaginative and pretend play? That was only a phenomenon for maybe fifty years of human history. Prior to that it was about learning survival skills or work skills.

Have you noticed that obese, unattractive women are often quite hostile and angry? These women are mistreated at a far higher rate than others, and become jaded and angry and expect each encounter to be a fight. This is probably an unpopula
