I’m really happy to see this. European football leads the way. I hope @ussoccer.com and CONCACAF and others will follow. FIFA is rotting and needs to be buried. www.cnn.com/2026/07/30/s...

In December 1979, the Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan, and the world responded symbolically by boycotting a major sports event the next summer. Impeach the Human Shit Stain before it’s too late.

I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

It’s NEVER that simple. Working systems are usually fine, and the details that a working system handles correctly are hard to quantify. The new team will ALWAYS miss small things (or assume they are mistakes). I hope there are very good backups.

But, this is what software engineers default to. Existing systems are antiquated and must be replaced. The last team was know-nothing and caused <insert problem>. Always. Show your tech to a consulting firm. That’s what they will say. Always.

There is no responsible software engineer who could document & scope the existing system and its interconnects and APIs in months, much less replace a hardened, tested, proven, functional system in a “new” language.

The institutional Democratic Party is guided by an almost pathological level of conflict avoidance in almost every direction. “What can we do to make the least number of people mad?” is just a bankrupt way to operate.

Thought: Trump isn’t the problem. He is the only elected person with the stones to fight. If you won’t fight for anything, and you demonstrate that your principles aren’t real, then why should anyone support you. You lose every fight. Democrats let Trump.

They did it. They passed the House budget. Boebert and Evans both voted YES. They voted to make lives harder for huge numbers of constituents - the poor on medicaid, and farmers counting on selling to SNAP recipients. #copolitics #co-08 #co-04 www.cbpp.org/press/statem...

I’m not a fan of what Musk/Trump is doing, but the TSA is security theater, and it would be fine with me to see it go. Securing cabins on planes made us more secure. Taking off our shoes does nothing (as is evidenced by the fact that you can simply pay to keep them on).

We need a generational shift away from Clinton democrats, and toward post-Clinton youth. Shumer for example is not a leader. AOC, for whatever her faults, isn’t captured by the DLC. We need to listen to people like her, and we need to start fighting with positions, not nuance.

Dave Loftis @lofdev.com · 08/02/2025
I don’t think this is entirely fair. This traces back to Clinton’s Democratic Leadership Council. Dems have forgotten how to have independent positions on foreign & fiscal policy, focusing on nuance & social issues. This was effective when the GOP was sane, but we don’t know how to lead anymore.

That’s pretty damn frustrating. I really want to argue with you, but I can’t. And it says some pretty bad things about most of the messaging from the past few cycles.

Dave Loftis @lofdev.com · 10/01/2025
Without arguing about this, do you think there is a valid argument that Democrats have forgotten how to advocate for positions, in favor of letting the GOP advocate for less popular positions and opposing (only) those?

Running on this talking point sure seems to work wonders. Maybe we should just let the GOP set a bunch of stuff on fire, instead of saving them and paying their bills, only for them to steal (credit/political capital) from us later?
