He couldn’t care less. They probably told him to calm the markets instead.

Its the Russian playbook all over again

This is absolutely f*%#ing insane…

Kharg island is tiny. Really tiny. Any troops trying to hold it are going to get hit with drones, missiles and artillery constantly.

Just that, what a fucking idiot…

What a complete fucking moron…

We haven’t just learned the location of the Charles de Gaulle, but also the name of the sailor who’s going to be scrubbing the toilets for the next few months.

This sounds an awful lot like Iran is not only not losing the war, but is actually winning the war.

Trump expects the world to go to war with Iran. What will actually happen is that the world will re-establish diplomacy with Iran and offer sanctions relief to end the blockade.

Without war reparations, American ships will forever be barred from sailing the strait, and Gulf states will likely start distancing themselves from the US and re-assess hosting American bases and troops.

Trump’s victory looks an awful lot like a strategic defeat that sees the US pull out of the Middle East and leave Iran in a more powerful position then before.

Right now it is in the interest of other NATO countries to see the US weakened militarily and politically. The US stopped being an ally as soon as Trump threatened to annex Canada and Greenland.

Are you suggesting OpenAI and others like it might actually be…

…overvalued?! 🫢

Not just a security disaster, but a disaster for performance, testing, lifecycle management etc.

I don’t think people realize just how amazingly stupid it is to outsource your core business to an LLM, unless your software company was a get rich quick scheme to begin with (which is surprisingly common btw).

Not a programmer myself, but I don’t believe for a second that LLM’s will replace programmers.

Altman’s bullshitting on social media is just marketing. Don’t believe for a second that this guy actually speaks truth or even knows what he’s talking about.

However, I do believe that a lot of executives are gullible enough to fall for this vibe-coding scam and kill their business. I also believe we’re going to see a tsunami of racketeers selling broken products.

Trump probably reads Zelensky’s offer as Zelensky gloating or belittling him. If I were Zelensky I would be exploiting the situation to the max, by constantly highlighting how helpless and incompetent the Americans are in the face of Iranian drones and how awesome the Ukrainian fighting force actually is.

That’ll show ‘em! I’m sure they’ll re-open the strait of Hormuz any day now…

/s

And once they’re there, declare victory and pull out, leaving the Europeans and Asians to solve the mess he created.

Correction: not help to reopen the strait of Hormuz, but help in taking out Iranian positions along the shore, clearing mines and countering incoming drones and missiles. In other words, to join in the war against Iran.

Does anyone seriously believe a word coming out of the White House anymore?

Unbelievable…Trump’s would rather save his ego than let Ukraine help save American lives.

My brother in-law actually has a diagnosed personality disorder and the way Trump behaves, especially while under duress, is identical to how my brother in-law would react.

If Trump indeed suffers from a personality disorder, which I am convinced is the case, then he is literally incapable of backing down.

This is an absolute nightmare scenario for the US. Trump won’t stop until he is forced to stop. We will see Trump make even more crucial mistakes and see him try and escalate this as far as he possible can.

Conspiracy theory? It’s not, it’s absolutely true. But they left out the bit about the quasi-alliance between big tech and right-wing extremists.

Tech bro’s want to keep their revenue streams, techno-fascists want to remove privacy barriers that stop them from training AI with your personal data and actual fascists want to crack down on public speech and dissidents.

The political right in both the US and EU are continuously working to remove privacy and surveillance restrictions under the auspices of free markets and innovation.

This is the same country that was seriously planning to invade and annex Greenland just three months ago. They might have postponed their plans in favor of bombing Iran, but Greenland is still on the table.

So Europe may suffer the economic consequences of this mess, but the White House getting humiliated and the US military getting degraded and bogged down in Iran are both a boon for Europe.

My only fear that some European leaders (looking at you Starmer) might actually be stupid enough to follow them in this folly out of some misplaced sense of appeasement.

They are also sounding the alarm bells for bananas, arabica beans, soy beans and corn…
