Karp says he "pays the price" when he's wrong.
When Palantir's algorithm gets the wrong person arrested, is he arrested? When it gets the wrong person killed, is he killed?
So no, he doesn't pay the price. He pays a tiny, inconsequential fraction of the price.

Holy smokes! If you acted like Palantir CEO Alex Karp in a corporate meeting, they would report you to HR. Just saying.

What we are watching - as U.S. citizens are dragged out of cars and illegal war is waged in the Caribbean - is the corruption of the most sacred power we give the President - the power of violence.
We are no longer a democracy if the regime can use violence without restraint.

A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away: in 2008, after Russia attacked Georgia, Viktor Orbán spoke about the need for a clear moral stance and condemned Russian aggression.
A year later he met Vladimir Putin one-on-one — and everything changed.

Hard disagree. The official BLS jobs numbers are still the most reliable data we have, and it's not close. And there's no way the Administration has (yet) fiddled with its data. I promise to let you know at the first whiff of interference.
The only reliable data we are going to get on this stuff now comes from the private sector. bsky.app/profile/atru...
🚨 CNBC on latest jobs numbers: "A big miss on ADP payrolls. The private payroll company saying private payrolls shed 32,000 workers in Nov. That's the 4th negative number in past 6 months. The estimate was for +40,000, so the street was off ... this may be coming from being hammered by the tariffs"

Half asleep old racist wakes up for drunk Uncle rant
here's Trump's full racist rant about MN's Somali community: "Somalians ripped off that state for billions. And they contribute nothing... Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage. These aren't people that work... They come from hell & do nothing but bitch. We don't want them"

"The U.S. military were always murderers, now they're just admitting it" may be a popular edgy view on BlueSky, but it undermines any reason to be upset that the Trump Admin are uniquely bad actors or present any urgent danger.

Mr. Roger's message wasn't one of "entitlement". It was the same message you hear in church each Sunday: God made only one of you and loves you. He would leave the rest of his flock to go looking just for you if you're lost. Is that considered "woke" now?"
Fox & Friends also called Mr. Rogers and evil man. The people who hated him are the same who hate Ms. Rachel.

Those names aren’t going to black out themselves!
A report reveals the DOJ—after frantically realizing the files would be released—has been paying FBI agents nearly $1M in overtime to work on the “Epstein Transparency Project."
Ostensibly aimed at protecting victims' privacy, the project could also prevent exposing Trump. trib.al/tx3W0lL

Donald Trump hates me, and the feeling is mutual.
I believe he is a criminal and an authoritarian who is trying to destroy our democracy and the rule of law. I spend a considerable amount of my time fighting against him and his enablers in court and in public discourse.
