I wouldn’t call it irony but noteworthy still
🇺🇸‼️ The irony of the moment is that Bryan Lanza, a former adviser to Donald Trump — who in several interviews urged Ukraine to “come to terms” with the loss of Crimea — has now become a consultant to the international division of Russia’s Lukoil.

A silly silly product. Electric bike that makes electricity.
Cost $3800 euros.
With pretty price electricity price of 0.15c(euro)/kWh it takes over 25,000 hours to save the electricity cost. At semi-leisurely 20kph we can assume that you can get 60W of electricity out so at that pace ~500k km.

SCOOP — Gregg Phillips, a conspiracy theorist with no emergency management experience who helped produce the election-denying documentary ‘2000 Mules’ with Dinesh D’Souza and has faced numerous legal inquiries, has been named head of FEMA’s Office of Response and Recovery.

My story:
Conspiracy theorist election denier given FEMA’s second-most important role
Gregg Phillips will lead the Office of Response and Recovery, “the heart of what FEMA does.”

A new video surfacing from a Tesla demonstration in Miami this weekend shows the Optimus humanoid robot taking a nasty fall. But it’s not the fall itself that is raising eyebrows, it’s the specific hand movements the robot made on its way down electrek.co/2025/12/07/t... #ai #tech

Here is Ark prediction for Tesla from a few years back.

In the real world Tesla sales track behind 2024 AND 2023 in China and Europe. This despite the L (long) variant in china and facelift Model Y release this year. These are the latest products and no new ones in foreseeable future.

Ark simulated that in 2025 Tesla would sell 9.3 million vehicles at 40% gross margins.
The 2026 numbers look thrilling too!

NEW: Another purge of immigration judges just happened, this time in New York City. This latest purge includes one of the smartest people I know, an immigration judge who dutifully served on the bench for 10 years. She was unceremoniously fired in violation of civil service laws.

If you haven't yet. Help whistleblower in the teeth of Elon and Tesla
I did my part.

Lukasz leaked serious safety culture issues and consumer misleading schemes at Tesla a few years back.

Anyone who has followed Tesla knows Elon will use his money might to crush such with serious vengeance.

Help the underdog.

PB 140kg for 2 reps.

My highest weight for deadlift was 110kg until last spring. Did 130kgx3 a few weeks back. The odd thing is that in several years I have trained much more. I have only like 5-6 weight sessions since July. Plenty of indoor rowing though but even that largely at "zone 2".

The party that promised "free speech on campus" has made sure there can be no free speech on campuses.
This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

Here we can see Elon, genius of our time, explain the battery technology going into 2020 Tesla Roadster so that it can both have 600 mile range AND 1.9 second 0-60mph time.

Someone still think they had the vehicle somehow designed in 2017 when they revealed it and started taking payments...

Absolutely nuts
US private equity giant Carlyle Group is said to be in talks to buy sanctioned Russian oil producer Lukoil’s overseas assets

Swiss trader Gunvor pulled out of an earlier agreement after US government criticism

Now Trump administration has given clearance to prospective buyers to start discussions:
Lukoil’s foreign assets linked to Carlyle as tanker shipments remain on hold
US permits talks with sanctioned Russian oil group over potential purchase

It's too easy to be distracted by the economic story of the day. The more important story is of our system fraying: The rule of law is decaying, Bribery spreading, crony capitalism normalized. It won’t show up in next quarter’s data, but when our kids try to build their lives.
