As usual, @doctorow.pluralistic.net is the tech oracle of the modern era. People whose jobs were “replaced” by AI got fucked, the companies who put all their chips on AI are entering the FO phase of FAFO, and everyone with a 401k is about to get fucked. Yay. pluralistic.net/2026/07/24/s...
It would be the funniest thing ever if the people of Clacton actually elected a man dressed as a garbage can. If a city in Connecticut can dedicate its wastewater treatment plant to John Oliver, you can also give the world something great. Go for the choice that’s less full of rubbish than Farage.

Here's their CEO ranting about being a violent psychopath. This is a guy supplying our government with the most intrusive and dystopian technologies ever conceived. Very normal. Very cool.
Worth a reminder where the one of the primary venture capitalists who created our current technofascist surveillance state came from: www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
A Minneapolis man who spent his life serving real soldiers was executed in cold blood on the street by cosplay soldiers. This country has reached a new level of dystopia.

Reminder that Anduril's and Palantir's leadership subscribe to much same regressive "Intellectual Dark Web" ideology. Here's Palantir's CEO fantasizing about spraying his financial analyst opponents with... well you can see below. Class act, eh?
