#DOGE Is Far Short of Its Goal, & Still Overstating Its Progress

#ElonMusk now says his group will produce only 15% of the savings it promised. But even that estimate is inflated with errors & guesswork.

…when #Musk’s group tallies up its savings so far, it inflates its progress by including billion-dollar errors, by counting spending that will not happen in the next fiscal year—& by making guesses about spending that might not happen at all.

In particular, Pearre had clashed w/Scott Coulter, the new chief info officer installed by #ElonMusk.

It was a real pleasure to chat with Jack Tame on Q+A about why now is the time to think seriously about reducing our reliance on US tech companies and what to make of Elon Musk’s alliance with Donald Trump.

He hosts a great programme and I was really happy to be invited on.

The third James Bond novel was published this day in 1955. The thriller Moonraker is from a long-ago era with a villain that makes no sense today - A rocket-building technocrat who is actually a secret Nazi working for the Russians

Later this month, #TechWontSaveUs turns five years old. It’s hard to believe I’ve been making the show for this long!

Over that time I’ve interviewed hundreds of guests to spread critical perspectives on tech far and wide — and I know it’s had an impact.

#Longtermist Mike #ElonMusk who thinks that even his own trans daughter has lost her value for humanity, as she cannit fulfill her biological destiny anymore, for instance?

In earlier times, what you mention would've been very much in line with #SocialDarwinism, too.

And if you think of #Longtermists' believe of making #humanity a multi-planetary species, that is going to cost hundreds if billions.
We cannot support "suckers."

Said to say, but here we are.

Selbst das festhalten von Personalien kann bei einem, wie in den USA, zunehmend repressiven Staatsapparat schon eine Einschüchterung darstellen.

Amerikkalaiset jättifirmat ovat taas ryhtyneet mainostamaan Twitterissä

Eivät suinkaan siksi, että Twitter/X olisi jotenkin houkutteleva mainosalusta, vaan siksi, että ne pelkäävät joutuvansa Elon Muskin "tuhmien listalle", joka saattaisi aiheuttaa isompiakin ongelmia.

After the #Wisconsin #SupremeCourt election debacle, wäre #ElonMusk failed to procure the seat for the #MAGA candidate, bis dayy as #DODGE's #ChainsawMan are numbered:

"Trump Tells Inner Circle That Musk Will Leave Soon
The president is pleased with Elon Musk, but the decision comes as the tech mogul increasingly looks like a political liability.... "

EXACTLY what a #SOCIOPATH would say:

#ElonMusk has a…diagnosis of what’s *ailing* #America: It’s being destroyed by #empathy. In a long interview w/Joe Rogan, in numerous tweets…, #Musk has argued that “empathy” is a “suicidal” trait that is a driving force behind civilizational extinction. It is time, he believes, for “the West”…to bar its doors to #immigrants of a *certain type* & endure “temporary hardship” so govt can be transformed & “the woke mind virus will die.”

Loser says what?

#ElonMusk is so full of crap, he claims that the #Wisconsin #VoterID requirement on the ballot “was the most important thing.”

It literally was already required of Wisconsin voters, the amendment merely codified it.

They are incapable of admitting when they lose.

Finally a Republican who respects elections & of course it’s a member of the judiciary.

The Democratic-backed candidate for #WisconsinSupremeCourt defeated a challenger endorsed by #Trump & billionaire #ElonMusk, cementing a #liberal majority for at least 3 more years.

#SusanCrawford, a Dane County judge who led legal fights to protect #union power & #abortion rights, defeated Republican-backed Brad Schimel in a race that broke records for spending, was on pace to be the highest-turnout #Wisconsin #SupremeCourt election ever & became a proxy for #USpol battles.

I really enjoyed watching #elonmusk get mercilessly heckled at his own rally in #wisconsin and then panic, and blame it on people being paid off in the audience.

What about the millions around the world protesting him?

What about the millions of Americans who are?

Nobody has enough money.

He's just a man-child in a death spiral, and all his stocks are crashing.

#trump Whitehouse people are turning on one another, and hiding.

We are winning.
