I like building things that solve real problems. Sometimes that means code. Sometimes hardware. Sometimes a whole company. I care about speed, clarity, and doing things that matter.

Is Russia an existential threat to democracy?
For 100 years, Russia has perfected the art of undermining democracies:
- Funding extremists worldwide
- Coordinating massive disinfo campaigns
- Exploiting democratic vulnerabilities
- Creating systematic chaos
They're playing the long game.

Russia's 'peace' propaganda is like an abuser's logic.
They invade, then blame the victim for 'causing violence' by fighting back.
'If you'd just let me take what I want, there would be no violence.'
It's the same as telling a rape victim:
'If you hadn't resisted, it wouldn't be rape.

Having Kasparov here would make BlueSky so much cooler. If you can reach out to him, please do. I’m willing to bet he’ll get better engagement here immediately than on X now.
now that basically everyone is finally here, where is Garry Kasparov? #NAFO

Happy to have @bbcstever.bsky.social on bluesky. As always, best insights from Russia are coming from him.
Can’t get this Trump headline out of my head (from today’s Moskovsky Komsomolets): “America’s new president is like an unguided missile. He can fly off in any direction.”

If anyone has BlueSky codes, here is how you can make the best of them.
To start things--if you have codes and want to have them distributed, Ive just set up an email account you can email them to:
blueskycodedonation@gmail.com
I will then pass them to my long waiting list at twitter. We want to get codes out asap, to start spreading.

HI All, Im was trying to redistribute blue sky codes to those who wanted them (through my twitter). Can we plan a clearing house to do this. The demand is enormous, We can focus on giving them to named accouts (real people). x.com/PhillipsPOBr...

Meanwhile in Russia: Vladimir Solovyov said that Russia will rebuild destroyed historical buildings in Ukraine from scratch and they will be "better than they ever were!" He also named one of his panelists as Odesa's soon-to-be Governor.
