Former hobbits. If you have ever considered returning to Palantir, this is the week to do it. The world is demanding every last unit of creative energy we can muster. If you return, you will be on a plane day one and committing code that matters within hours of getting your laptop. From the foxhole to the factory floor the surface area to support something incredibly meaningful, immediately, is immense. I promise you nothing other than the sense of satisfaction that comes from the purpose and intensity of the most intense deployments you ever worked on. If you have been chasing that spark, come find it again. The shire is calling.

There seems to be some confusion about the SAVE America Act. If it becomes law, you will NOT be able to vote with your drivers license alone. You’d need: 1. A passport, which more than half of Americans don’t have and costs at least $130 OR 2. A birth certificate PLUS your photo ID with matching names, which nearly 70 million married women lack OR 3. Military services papers (not a military ID alone) with sensitive info. I’m voting NO.

I mean, that is just ridiculous.

We're back!

Pope Leo XIV weighs in on Cardinal Cupich’s decision to honor pro-abortion Sen Dick Durbin, saying: “I think that is very important to look at the overall work that this Senator has done during, if I'm not mistaken, 40 years of service in the United States Senate.  I understand the difficulty and the tensions but I think as I myself has spoken to pass, it’s important to look at many issues that are related to what is the teaching of the Church. Someone who says I'm against abortion but I'm in favor of the death penalty, is not really pro-life. So someone who says that I'm against abortion but I'm agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants who in are the United States I don't know if that's pro-life; so they're very complex issues. I don't know if anyone has all the truth on them, but I would ask first and foremost that there'd be greater respect for one another, and that we search together both as human beings and that case is American citizens or citizens of the state of Illinois, as well as Catholics to say we need to, you know, really look closely at all of these ethical issues and to find the way forward as Church. Church teaching on each one of those issues is very clear. Thank you.”
