Ha! I thought it might be a reference to human capital or IP in a somewhat extractive sort of way.

Watched “Mountainhead” last night and had mixed reactions. I found it a weird and somewhat sterile exercise in tech bro satire, but I found a lot of the dialogue to be a decent approximation of how they actually seem to talk. So maybe insufferability is the point? Wondering what other folks thought.

I guess it’s because it’s a CR and not a “budget” bill?

So why are 60 votes needed in the Senate when it’s a budget bill? Is it because they used up their one-shot 50 votes bill on the BBB?

“Is it that the Chief Justice doesn’t accept that the Court is losing credibility on a daily basis; that he thinks the Court doesn’t need that credibility in order to fulfill its intended role in our constitutional system; or that he doesn’t care?”

Me on John Roberts as his Court turns 20 today:
180. The Roberts Court Turns 20
The Supreme Court is much less popular and much more divisive today than it was when John Roberts was sworn in as the 17th Chief Justice on September 29, 2005. And at least much of that is his fault.

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move.

1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

Starbucks unions are practicing picketing as the company abuses its workers and denies them a fair contract.

This is your reminder to not cross a picket line and support workers!

NO CONTRACT, NO COFFEE.

A impressive team of nonprofit law experts (+me), have banded together to comment on the new proposed rules from the Education Dept. on public service loan forgiveness.

The rule purports to give ED authority to strip PSLF eligibility from any employer that acts with an "illegal purpose."
