Sometimes you just wish for a giant glass dome and some consequences.

The agreement to avoid tariffs was worse than tariffs. Given the alternative there is no downside to bringing the hurt.

When Lutnick coughs it’s because the Idiot moved the hand that’s up his posterior. I doubt these two said anything without being directed to.

The alternative is the long term eroding of our ability to make sovereign trade and policy decisions.

We’re in this precarious spot because we relied on a single, stable majority trade partner for 30 years. The cost to prevent worse will not be nothing.

I can’t believe how much more I get done when I’m left alone and focused on the task at hand.

I don’t feel particularly isolated. Everybody is different but a once-week team chat and seasonal social lunches fill my cup.

Turns out when you can do errands and meet non-work friends for coffee as you please you don’t need to lean on your office family so much for connection and purpose.

Seems like somebody should start fast-tracking that after the Saturday the world has been having.

No, I don’t think this is incredibly likely to happen. But like how some disaster prep agencies model zombie outbreaks to get people thinking about hurricanes and earthquakes, it’s a good thought experiment.

Let’s say out of the blue there’s an executive order that prevents US tech companies from servicing Canadian customers.

How hosed are you? Would you have access to backups of family photos not on Apple or Google? Does your email still work? Can you access your password manager? If you have a domain registered, is it still pointable to your servers?

I ask this because I’m trying to train myself to look for Can/EU alternatives in my tech stack for work and personal life.

I’m looking for a heavy duty rucking backpack, preferably to designed with pockets to hold weighted plates in the style of the GoRuck bags.

I love the quality but the way they lean into the military patriotism leaves a bad taste.
