We believe that the West can awaken from its long slumber – and rekindle the fire that was first lit in ancient Greece millennia ago.

If Hamas stopped fighting, there would be peace.
If Israel stopped fighting, it would cease to exist.

Three years ago today, Hamas terrorists tortured, mutilated, and murdered 1,200 innocent civilians in Israel.
Among those slain were men, women, and children — including dozens of Americans.
We will never forget this act of barbarism against an ally and recommit ourselves to the defense of civilization.

EXTRAORDINARIO
Milton Friedman on why it is so hard to keep government from expanding:
“The benefits from government tend to be concentrated. The costs tend to be dispersed.”
“To each farmer, the subsidy he gets from the government means a great deal. To each of a much larger number of consumers, it costs very little.”
“Consequently, those who feed at the trough of government tend to be politically much more powerful than those who provide the wherewithal.”

An update on FSD Supervised in Europe
FSD is currently approved in five EU countries (NL, DK, BE, EE, LT), used by >70k customers for over 1 million km per day, and is 4.1x less likely to get into a crash compared to manual driving, measured across 100 million km on public EU roads.
Leading up to a potential EU-wide approval vote for FSD Supervised on October 6th, 2026, we have decided to open-source one of the key pieces of evidence used to support the Netherlands approval.
As a reminder, we adjusted the FSD design to be compliant with existing regulation (UN-R-171 DCAS) but requested an exemption for certain behaviors via the EU Article 39 procedure. The following dashboard is evidence of safety for those exemptions.
This exact dashboard was shared with all EU Member States in April 2026, shortly after RDW’s approval, and all data presented is from before that date.

European countries recorded 19,400 road deaths in 2025. That's around 53 deaths/day, with the vast majority of these crashes attributed to human error. These deaths are largely preventable with technology we have today.
FSD Supervised is already saving lives where it’s approved – yet in much of Europe, that safety benefit remains locked behind bureaucracy.

This legend got roasted by the French newspaper Le Monde
Then instead of putting his head down as most European elites have typically done
He penned a masterpiece articulating his heroic contributions to France
THIS IS HOW YOU SAVE EUROPE

Thank you. The important part is zeroing out taxes on the bottom half. Best way to put money in someone’s pocket is to not take it out in the first place. Bottom half is only 3% of total tax revenue. But it’s very meaningful to that person. Zero it out.
Facts
It's great that Jeff Bezos thinks this way, because too many people who don't make money think that giving money to the government will solve a lot of their problems. They think these government programs are the answer, and it's clearly not. You can look at the federal level or at the state level, and you will see that a lot of government programs are simply waste.

Finding a co-founder is hard: high-quality people are rarely available, and available people are rarely high-quality. We know this pain well, having spent the last decade backing entrepreneurs at Day One.
The ideal scenario, obviously, is to meet people before they are fully available (while they are still employed, mostly), and for the encounter itself to be the catalyst that makes them take the leap.
But how can one know a priori that an abstract discussion with a stranger won't be a waste of time? And what is there to discuss at such an early stage when nothing is defined, not even the will to quit one's job?
We have solved these two problems with a club designed to let tomorrow’s best entrepreneurs exchange in a setting that maximizes signal and ruthlessly minimizes noise.
First, by selecting profiles with the deliberate precision we uphold as Day One investors. This is where the Club’s fundamental value lies, as it is not meant to host more than a few dozen members out of thousands of potential ones.Â
Second, by framing the conversation around the concept of Unique Insight. A Unique Insight emerges when a founder masters a new technological breakthrough and identifies a significant (often ancient) problem it solves. Discussing it allows one to reveal their worldview, their way of thinking and acting. It's the ultimate introduction.Â
The Club is a space where the identity and current Unique Insight of every member are visible to others. Debates tend to focus on the nuances of new possibilities offered by specific technologies, and on the Unique Insights discovered by peers.
All members share the following characteristics:
-A significant probability of starting a company with global ambitions within the next 12 months. In Paris, SF, or elsewhere
-Top 0.1% of potential founder profiles: people we could imagine backing at Day One
-Each guest applies with their "best" Unique Insight. While it's likely to change over time (if only through the act of partnering), it is a medium to share one's worldview
-Co-founding teams not yet formed. We are not looking for early employees, even "founding" ones
We have been hand-picking the first members one by one and already generated a successful partnership. While we will keep inviting extraordinary people we meet organically, applications are now open.

There’s a genocide happening in Sudan. Men, women, and children are being slaughtered, and the world is silent.
No outrage. No mass protests. No hunger strikes. No boycotts. No “actions” on college campuses.
Just silence. Deafening, shameful silence.

Europe would do well to follow Gates on this pivot. The EU is responsible for just 6% of global emissions, but still thinks it's saving the planet by sorting and washing trash by hand, forgoing AC, or deleting emails (lol). Climate doomerism is degrowth nonsense in a nutshell.
Today, Bill Gates admitted that pushing climate doomerism was a mistake.
@LLBiggers: “That shift to common sense is welcome, but it comes after decades of fearmongering that harmed young people, stalled development, and punished dissenting scientists.”

He couldn’t even utter Trump’s name.
Obama was the most divisive President in modern American history and even in a moment of great accomplishment and peace he couldn’t be a unifier. Sad.
After two years of unimaginable loss and suffering for Israeli families and the people of Gaza, we should all be encouraged and relieved that an end to the conflict is within sight; that those hostages still being held will be reunited with their families; and that vital aid can start reaching those inside Gaza whose lives have been shattered. More than that, though, it now falls on Israelis and Palestinians, with the support of the U.S. and the entire world community, to begin the hard task of rebuilding Gaza – and to commit to a process that, by recognizing the common humanity and basic rights of both peoples, can achieve a lasting peace.
