i hope this election cycle empowers everyone the next time a centrist liberal says to drop pro-trans and pro-immigrant rhetoric to enthusiastically tell them to shut the fuck up

It's pub day for my book, "Gilded Rage: Elon Musk and the Radicalization of Silicon Valley," which chronicles the rise of the tech right and their role in the 2024 election. Thanks to everyone who helped along the way.

Microsoft shoved their AI Copilot into everything in Windows 11. Which lead to an increase in Windows 10 use. So they announced they'd stop support for Windows 10, but its usage was still strong. So they started to put Copilot into Windows 10.
Windows 7 use is surging 5x now.
AI is product poison.

We have gone from the margin of error to the margin of effort.
On the day before the election, we stand on the verge of toppling a political dynasty and winning a city we can afford. But we can only do it with you.

The new MacBook Air is so damn good. Feels faster than my M2 Pro MBP, but was $1,000 cheaper and 30% lighter.
Currently running Figma, Photoshop, Xcode, Simulator, Cursor, Safari, Slack, Linear, + a few more and not even a hiccup... I guess I'm not a Pro anymore?

We see so many rocket explosions with SpaceX because Elon has more money than god and isn't afraid to crack a few eggs.
Seeing this makes me respect the folks at NASA even more... on any given mission, they can hardly afford to make a single mistake.
