Anthropic understands that engineering practices have to change in architecting enterprise computing environments, but their remedy—charting an escape trajectory off the mainframe—fundamentally misunderstands the power of the mainframe ecosystem.

Remove Mike Johnson from the Speakership.
I think we know the true meaning of ICE—it’s not for “Immigration and Customs Enforcement”…it’s really to telegraph that special snowflake faux-tough guys will resort to lethal force when they get their feelings hurt.
A friendly reminder that today is Data Privacy Day.

Stephen Miller looks like someone who would wear lacy panties and high heels while trying on different skin suits.
As we remember horrible atrocities committed by Nazis and fascism against humanity—let’s do more than pay lip-service of saying “never again” and push towards action by holding the wannabe autocrats in our federal government accountable.
Sovereignty is derived from we the people. Not them

Overall, I think it’s going to be a great series.
My first thoughts on Starfleet Academy:
1.) I like it.
2.) The Doctor and his snark is still great.
3.) I like the balance of humor with the dramatic themes
4.) I like the new ship and the set design—but we’re really committed to slick surfaces. Can we replicate a few throw rugs or something?
If we break our alliances, we are smaller and weaker. If we break them for pride and power and greed, then we don’t just break an alliance, we break our own character. We diminish ourselves in every way that matters, and no amount of newly sovereign frozen ground can obscure our national shame.

It’s up to all of us to press our elected officials for action and answers. Be courteous, be calm, but be firm.
We get the government we deserve.
We only have ourselves to blame if choose to abdicate our duty.
May God forgive and have mercy on us.
He may see us a chumps, but this nation has a government of the people. By the people. For the people. Our government is accountable to us.
It’s why his enablers are trying to intimidate us—they are fearful of being held to account by citizens. Authority of government derives from the governed.
We have sold our soul twice now, and we have only ourselves to blame when the bill comes due.
The President won’t pay for it—he’ll only laugh at the chumps who will be holding the bag. Who are the chumps? Us. We are the chumps.
The relationships of long time friends and family have been destroyed all over the country because some choose not to venerate a man with no moral center—a man who uses people who suit his purpose only to be tossed aside like a used wrapper.
We were told by friends and loved ones that a “vote isn’t a Valentine” only to be shown that their continued acceptance requires strict obedience and no deviation of the leader.
Our history is being rewritten because the Commander in Chief refuses to be held to account. The bully can’t stand when people stand up to him and tell him no. His disciples get filled with rage when you disagree or refuse to accept “alternative facts” or toe the party line.
All while the US’ new mode of foreign policy is “pay-to-play” only as a means for the President and his family to enrich themselves. Corruption of the highest order is happening before our eyes, yet we are told our eyes are lying to us.
Pieces of America’s greatness shattered and spread across the stage of history. We knew what would happen, but we let it happen anyway.
And for what? Empty promises for cheap eggs and cheap gas??
We are close to rendering the most successful self-defense pact null and void because the President wants to cosplay a mafioso and act like a bully and lay claim to territory of sovereign nations in our hemisphere.
Our children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren will be picking up the pieces.
I have seen us as being a resilient nation—instilled with resolved when faced with a crisis.
Now we’re inducing crises in order to #OwnTheLibs and #FAFO.
We are no longer a serious nation, and we’re causing irreparable damage to relations with our closest allies and friends.
We are at a crossroads in American history. The President of the United States and his enablers are making *the United States* to be an existential threat to the rules-based liberal world order that has allowed humanity to experience a tremendous amount of liberty and prosperity in human history.
