🇦🇷😳 Marcelo Bielsa back in 2024: "I am sure that football is in a process of decline. It is becoming less and less attractive because what made it the best game in the world is not there anymore." "If you let a lot of people watch football, but you don't protect the pleasure of what they watch, that favours business, because the business is that a lot of people watch football." "For me, the introduction of technology (like VAR) does a lot of harm to football. This sport has a particularity: when it becomes completely predictable, it loses its appeal." "As time passes, as fewer and fewer footballers are worth watching and as the game produced is less and less enjoyable, this artificial increase in the number of spectators will be interrupted."

After much reflection, I have decided to resign from my position as Director of the National Counterterrorism Center, effective today. I cannot in good conscience support the ongoing war in Iran. Iran posed no imminent threat to our nation, and it is clear that we started this war due to pressure from Israel and its powerful American lobby. It has been an honor serving under @POTUS and @DNIGabbard and leading the professionals at NCTC. May God bless America.

Billionaire Marc Andreessen says he has "zero" introspection, and that the idea itself is a modern invention.

Alex Karp rips into the Palantir conspiracy theorists: “You're attacking the person who's protecting you— idiot.” “You may hate this, but there's one person protecting your rights to be a conspiracy theorist that actually has a seat at the table, and that person is me.” “You may not want to hear that truth, but it's fucking true.” “Maybe do a little more reading before you pontificate on your absurd and obviously ill-formed and many times stupid opinions.” “It's like fucking so stupid.” Via @tbpn

🚨 SAM ALTMAN: “We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter.”
