My transcriber app ask me if I wanted to switch to another language when I said my last name appropriately and with the emphasis in the right places.
Not sure how to take that 🤣
The irony behind the stupidity of this attack is that a majority of the small business pizzeria owners in Connecticut are republican.
The Republican Party needs a new playbook. Then again, most politicians need a new playbook.
The new political playbook is to post a statement for everything.
Post it to social media.
Get abused by opposition, rightfully.

Those who think it’s foolish to study politics will be governed by fools who do.
Getting your cars blown up in the morning, saving stranded astronauts in the afternoon. All in a days work @elonmusk
Another biased article lacking strategy evidenced by the December reference of @elonmusk’s purchase of twitter/x as a failure that had lost money, when it clearly won the election. And I’d bet if revalued is worth close to the $44B he paid for it and completely turned around.

2025 AI: The World Isn't Ready (And Neither Are You)
1/ ClaudeGPT is your new co-founder. AI coding platforms like v0, Lovable, Bolt, Cursor, Ohara are replacing cranky technical cofounders. If you can think it, you can build it.
2/ Middle managers? More like AI babysitters.
The new middle management is AI agent supervisors – basically, glorified prompt-engineers who ensure the robots don't go rogue. Think of them as the kindergarten teachers for AIs that handle high-level business moves. They'll need hazard pay.
3/ The agent-ification of everything. “Agent” might be the Oxford dictionary word of 2025. Brain rot here we go again.
4/ Hardware's revenge: Jony Ive's been in his villain era, cooking up something that'll make Vision Pro look like Google Glass with a hangover. Don’t bet against Ive or @sama - you heard of the iPhone?
5/ Chrome extensions are the new app store: Forget apps, the browser is the battleground for getting shit done in 2025.
6/ Yappers > coders: The guy who can make people care just became more valuable than your entire dev team.
5/ SaaS? Dead. Meet AaaS: Every SaaS company is now an agent company.
6/ The boring layer wins: Everyone's building sexy AI apps while the real billionaires are selling digital plumbing.
7/ Distribution is the only moat left: Your AI can code? Cool. My newsletter has 25k human subscribers.
8/ AI interns are keeping college grads unemployed: Entry-level jobs are going extinct. They don't need coffee breaks or mental health days—big opportunity for companies to solve.
9/ Rise of the chief apology officer: The most important C-suite role in 2025 is explaining why your AI went rogue. AI alignment is more than a buzzword - pay attention.
10/ Personal AI for all: Your digital twin is about to have better social skills than you.
11/ "Made by humans" movement: Watch your millennial aunt Karen pay extra for artisanal, cage-free, human-generated content.
12/ The great API war: Everyone's fighting over who controls the AI pipes. Plumbers are the new programmers.
13/ Solo founders eat corporations: One person + AI stack = goodbye Fortune 500.
14/ Privacy goes luxury: Being untraceable becomes the ultimate flex. Digital invisibility costs more than a Rolex.
15/ Education's last stand: Universities realize GPT-14 is a better professor than their entire faculty.
16/ AI whisperers take over: Speaking “AI” becomes more valuable than speaking five languages or being captain of the football team.
17/ Authentication crisis: "Trust me bro" becomes the next hot memecoin. Bet on the blockchain; it's the future.
18/ Ambient computing kills screens: Your entire house becomes the interface. RIP keyboards. Viva le voice.
19/ The data drought: Fresh, original human data becomes more precious than your ChatGPT subscription.
20/ Browser becomes the OS: Chrome finally achieves its final form - eating every other platform alive.
I spent 💯 hours mapping out the AI battlefield for 2025. It's a wild ride. Want the guide to dominate? Reply "AI DOMINATE" and I’ll send you the full breakdown before the chaos hits.

How the Government Spends your Tax Dollars:
-$28 million on licensing fees for a green “camouflage” pattern on Afghan National Army uniforms
-$2.5 million on a Super Bowl Ad for the Census
-$1.7 million for holograms of dead comedians -$500,000 to build an IHOP in Washington, DC

We 🇺🇸 just dodged a bullet.
So I tried to build a tech company from Norway and here’s what happened:
1. Two years of building without almost any money/funding, better part of a year without salary
2. Raise VC and become one of Norway’s first unicorns
3. Face unrealized gains wealth tax bill of many x my annual net salary. ofc the company is loss making and all the investors have preference shares so I can’t take out any money.
4. Call out publicly that this does not make sense. Independent of level, taxation needs to happen when you actually make money.
5. I move to Switzerland because no politician cares/listens.
6. I still don’t get any tangible and sensible answers to my criticism of unrealized gains tax, BUT I do get put up on the “wall of shame” at the socialist parties offices…
I’m Norwegian and I love Norway but the socialist politicians are taking the country down a dark path. It’s a real life Atlas Shrugged.
The woke just woke up.
The main stream media lied to you.
Your party lied to you.
Voting red isn’t racist.
Trump rally’s ≠ Nazi hate
Biden wasn’t fit to be President, Kamala knew it & lied and therefore wasn’t fit to be president.
