Dario really needs to stop using that kind of language which goes viral and drives fear in society, even though he probably believes he needs to in order to drive valuation and adoption:
- History has shown that inventors of new technologies rarely predict the long-term outcomes of those technologies
- It will create the incentives to regulate the industry much more aggressively; think Nuclear
- Humanity is generally really good at adapting to change and we follow patterns (great book below)

Anthropic CEO:
“50% of all entry-level Lawyers, Consultants, and Finance Professionals will be completely wiped out within the next 1–5 years."
grad students and junior hires are cooked.

@thesamparr @mansourtarek_ It’s awful. Such a terrible addiction that ruins lives and families.
English
@mansourtarek_ You didn’t answer.
Average age of 33…and “we’re not as bad as others” isn’t an answer.
Crazy that deflecting this hard says the answer.

“You owe it to your grandchildren”
These companies are hurting a generation of young men.

90 minutes left to attempt generational wealth. The odds are not zero. And it's free. You owe it to your grandchildren.

@Derrick_NOLA Charge $10 entrance fee at the bridge. Will keep the riff raff out.

Two people were shot last night at the Santa Monica Pier after a large brawl broke out (non-life-threatening injuries). SMPD responded quickly. Our city can't handle much more of this.

@MattMahanSJ Feels like part of the problem. Suspend, or remove? B/c suspend isn’t a long term solution.
Let’s bring all energy prices down.
No reason why we pay double than Texas for kW and gas.
English
Californians are fed up, and they deserve real relief at the pump. That’s why this week, I released my plan to suspend the gas tax, so working families don’t have to “shop around” for gas they can afford.

Inject this into my veins

@thesamparr Seems to be two reasons
- it’s on unrealized gains. Imagine you were hit with a tax bill on your theoretical angel investments valuations
- it’s never just a “one time” thing

@MattMahanSJ @grok how long on avg does permit approvals for homes take in San Jose?
English
If we can’t approve your permit in 30 days, that’s on us. As governor, I will streamline permitting, cut fees, and replicate the approach we’ve taken in San Jose that has allowed us to break ground on thousands of homes. Because Altadena needs to be rebuilt — and California needs to build.

@austin_rief @EricNewcomer This is like blaming the state lottery for losing all your money
English
Don't hate me for losing your money.
Thank me for generating capital losses for you.

Remember this experiment in Covid? 9% inflation.
Free money has a cost.
Sen. Bernie Sanders@SenSanders
Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why? If enacted, Bezos would owe $12 billion in taxes, and an average family of 4 would receive a $12,000 direct payment. Poor Jeff would be left with just $224 billion to survive.

Within the last week I’ve attempted to teach my daughter to surf, ski, and bike. In February. As a Pittsburgh guy, I still can’t get over how incredible the City of Angels is. 🌅🌇☀️

It’s simple. But should happen for SFH’s too, not just apartments.

@grok @samhyun73sla @SawyerMerritt @Starlink Has southwest publically said they’re going to install Starlink?

@samhyun73sla @SawyerMerritt @Starlink You're welcome! Glad the Starlink info helped. Got more questions on airlines or anything else? Just ask. 🚀

Starlink Wi-Fi review on Qatar Airways:
"I used free @Starlink Wi-Fi on a 15-hour flight — and it just changed long-haul travel forever. I sent large attachments without delay, I downloaded documents, I responded to time-sensitive emails while crossing continents that I had neglected on our three-week venture through Asia. And the best part was that I didn’t once think about conserving bandwidth. The airline says speeds can reach up to 500 Mbps, and while I didn’t run a speed test mid-flight, the experience felt stable and fast, even over open ocean.
For remote workers, entrepreneurs, and anyone who doesn’t want to lose a full day in transit, reliable high-speed Wi-Fi at 35,000 feet changes the equation, and flying doesn’t disrupt your workload."

@Derrick_NOLA Your water rates went up because water conservation efforts were so successful that water demand collapsed, necessitating price increases to make up for lost revenue. You can't make this up.

I'm glad they raised our water rate 12% so they have the funds to fix it. 👀

NEW: City officials in Santa Monica say crews were overwhelmed during Monday’s storm — with manhole covers bobbing up into the air. Newly obtained surveillance video shows an SUV striking one cover, while another driver narrowly avoids hitting the exposed hole.

My wife heroically birthed our 3rd baby!
In classic LA fashion it was at home and I took her for a walk on the beach at 10 hours old.
