Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 20/09/2026He went for the base to get Bush elected twice. Played for the lowest common denominator. His candidate played stupid and used phrases like "fuzzy math." Constant appeals to racism. Cozy with Jesse Helms and Strom Thurmond. But he can't figure out how we got to this place. OK. 3501 0
Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Looking forward to reading this. Deference just ends up with the Justices fighting over what the word clearly means until eventually it covers everything they want to overturn and nothing else. 000 0
Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 21/07/2026I'm not sure the last time Neil had to review a 50 page complaint and compare it to a 51 page amended complaint. Or review a 300 page set of mortgage servicing guidelines. But I can promise you that AI absolutely shines in a number of critical areas and it's only going to get better over time. 2/2 000 0
Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 21/07/2026Oh I don't think it's because of self-preservation at all. I think Neil has lots of integrity and calls it like he sees it. My point is that practitioners *can't afford* to turn a blind eye to this incredibly productive tool. K&E just committed 500 million so this applies to both large and small.1/2 100 0

Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 30/06/2026It's a massive distinction not hair splitting. Finding there's no constitutional Birthright citizenship puts him with the other three judges. This was really 5-4 in very important ways. 000 0

Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 09/06/2026I guess if you start from the premise that AI cant get basic facts right, the rest of the argument flows pretty easily. My opinion is that the reality is a great deal more nuanced. The goal of AI isnt replacing people like Neil. It is providing legal help to people who have no representation at all. 200 0

Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 30/04/2026My gut is the tea party was not just racial and anti-establishment but generational as well. The GOP got younger as a result. The Dems are so old right now but you don't push out old insiders with young insiders. It takes outsiders. 100 0
Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 13/04/2026I think they opened themselves up to criticism by making offers to three or four guys before Brown. I'm mostly fine with the way he coached the team but I'm disappointed that he hasn't been able to get Mitch and Kat working together. 200 0

Benjamin Adams @benadamso-o.bsky.social · 10/02/2026The shift from robotics is totally consistent with my long time view of Musk. He is an extraordinary visionary but an awful manager.
