Curious about how to make (or make BETTER) no-code apps? I will be giving a LIVE lesson on Maven next Wednesday at noon Pacific time. Sign up now!
In 30 minutes, I will build an onboarding flow and connect it to a database. You will even learn enough SQL to be dangerous.

Microsoft Drops Simpson Thacher & Bartlett Law Firm from a Case
The tech giant instead engaged a firm that is fighting the president’s executive orders, Jenner & Block, in a sign that those firms can still attract clients.

"Vibe coding", or using AI tools to create apps without writing code is deceptively simple. While you can get started quickly, you will find without SOME technical/app building techniques things can get real messy fast.

Raiders of the Lost Roadmap
Trump has no clue what he’s up against. Dunning Kruger effect: there are so many layers he doesn’t understand, from simple economics to Chinese culture to how to actually politic. The US is so screwed.
My latest Substack deep-dive into the mindset, culture & national psyche behind China’s strategy in response to Trump’s tariffs.
This goes beyond short-term tit-for-tat retaliation. It’s about reshaping the global geopolitical sphere of influence after this chapter is over.

If you really wanted to make government more efficient, why would you kill student loans, which actually earn the government interest?
Answer: because you are lying about “efficiency” being the goal. Elimination and privatization are the actual goals.

Vanguard mutual funds hold a lot of TSLA. It would probably not be possible to get it out of index funds but these are a couple:
Vanguard VTSMX holds 83.91 million shares.
Vanguard VITNX holds 83.28 million.
If you own these let Vanguard know you will be changing, or change to another fund.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov - Trump has denied court orders and is taking over independent non-profits. And you are complying and writing him a blank check.
This is an unconstitutional, authoritative and oligarchic takeover of our federal government.
