Notes

Late capitalism alert: a logistics firm in my grocer’s supply chain got “hacked”, and now I can’t buy cheese in Holland.

Even in a newsletter for readers “pissed off about the climate crisis”, the idea it is irresponsible to boast about your meat consumption is too radical for the commentariet.

We’re screwed.

I’ve long looked up to Jeff Bezos as the architect of an effective organization. He’s also smart enough to understand how important organized labor has been to building a just society. Amazon’s handling of the RWDSU in Birmingham is utterly indefensible.

I’m hoping Apple hires @NanoRaptor to design a new M1-based Mac that is entirely enclosed in a keyboard.

Viktor Orban has called Europe’s bluff via the EPP and is effectively asserting that rule of law is a political choice. Any continued flow of EU funds into his government needs to be very publicly rationalized.

It’s time to rebrand Bitcoin as Chinese Coal Slave Money.
