David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I definitely know that name. I think I heard him on a podcast say something like characters are made up from how they want to control the world not plot points. I will look it up when I am done with this story. I’m trying to stay the course, but it might help the next story. 😺 Thanks 🙏 010

David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Case in point. Huawei was banned in America because it had superior 5G technology. Instead of going out of business, it just got bigger and better.

David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Does crony capitalism make corporations lazy? Instead of pouring money into research and development, American companies do billion dollar stock buybacks.

David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 21/09/2026And I think he got that from the Strunk and White grammar book that was all the rage for decades. My personal opinion is that short non-complex sentences are a bit of an American thing because we value efficiency. And what could be more American than strong verbs negate the need for adverbs. 110

David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 19/09/2026I asked Ai if this was true, and it said it was true. Then it quickly added that standardised grammar would make communication with others clearer and less prone to misunderstanding. Ai is very wise. 120
David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 18/09/2026The great shame of Ai is that it is going to standardise English around the world.

David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Inflation is a feature not a bug. For the last 30 years Japan’s inflation rate is so low, it sometimes goes into negative numbers. If this is possible, why does the American government purposely keep inflation and interest rates high enough they hurt but don’t cause rebellion? 030

David Allen Pierce @davidallenpierce.bsky.social · 05/09/2026Very true. Nursing homes, disabled, and military too.
