Saving (Great) Britain: The Phoenix Fellowship At the start of my career in 2012 I moved to Singapore. It felt like living in a utopian future. Everything worked. Trains on time with plenty of room. Streets clean. Polite and well-educated kids. Zero crime (people left their laptops on mall cafeteria tables to reserve their seat). ........... In the past 20 years the Singapore government has achieved a budget surplus in 75% of the fiscal years. Such competence in governance is extraordinarily rare. But it did not happen by accident. ..........

I returned to the UK in 2014 to start my first company. Fast forward 10 years and Singapore seems like a distant dream compared to the dystopia in the UK.

1/I don’t talk about this a lot but I’ve been pulled over 4x in the past year alone by cops. Why? They tell me it’s because of something I did 1-2 miles back…aka they followed me for 1-2 miles before deciding to pull me over.

But here’s what those folks are NOT telling you: 1) no brand new enlistee in the Army (or any branch of the military) is given a firearm on Day 1 of his/her service. They receive quite a bit of training in firearm safety before they ever are allowed to handle the weapon – even pic.twitter.com/wTsav4LTPS
— John (@JohnKaminar) February 14, 2020

if they grew up around guns and know all about them. 2) When they do get to handle their M-16s for the first time, there are no bullets ANYWHERE around. After being trained in firearm safety, they are then trained on the weapon itself without ever firing a live round. They pic.twitter.com/YQEdTWG6ey
— John (@JohnKaminar) February 14, 2020

learn how to handle it, carry it safely, disassemble it, clean it, check it for functionality, and reassemble it. 3) When they finally do get to fire the weapon, they are closely, CLOSELY supervised by their sergeants and officers. In fact, when the trainees go to the trainees pic.twitter.com/xdoJyaJUBr

go to the firing range for the first time, there are almost as many sergeants on the range as there are trainees. And some of the sergeants are assigned the specific responsibility for ensuring everything is done according to Army safety regulations. 4) Once the recruits pic.twitter.com/mQdP8RBSMT

finish their training and join their units, they NEVER get to carry their firearms around. Those weapons are kept in the unit arms room under double lock and key – each weapon is locked into its storage rack and the arms room itself is locked. And the arms room is protected by pic.twitter.com/xky5cYk2uE

an alarm system. 5) No soldier of ANY rank can simply go to the unit armorer (the sergeant responsible for the arms room) and say, “Gee, Sergeant, may I please sign out my M-16? I feel like exercising my 2nd Amendment right today by carrying my rifle around just because I can.” pic.twitter.com/QTVA8tlLyg
— John (@JohnKaminar) February 14, 2020

No, the troops only sign out their weapons for authorized purposes, such as marksmanship training or field exercises, and when they do that, they are ALWAYS under the supervision of a sergeant – usually under the supervision of several sergeants and a few officers, to boot.

I don't think Scholz, Macron, and Draghi want Putin to win, not exactly. But they are afraid of Ukraine winning and the world changing, of becoming less relevant. A new European security structure won't see them as leaders after their appeasement.

The complacent Western European old guard want to keep having it both ways. They claim the moral high ground & posture about human rights while funding Putin's police state and the war machine that is now slaughtering Ukrainians.

You are right Gary. A Navalny-led fully democratic Russia at peace with a vibrant Ukraine would make NATO irrelevant, and the center of gravity in Europe would move east to Ukraine.

I’ve been thinking about a16z’s obsession with crypto in the context of the downturn and had a realization. The past two tech downturns were reversed by the creation of new platforms. The internet for the dotcom crash and the iPhone post-housing crisis.

Benedict Evans has argued that tech’s growth has been fueled by new platforms which are 10x the opportunity of the previous one. As one generation fades, the next one is even bigger.

The question is what platform can be bigger than the smartphone? A16Z is betting it’s crypto. pic.twitter.com/dAfYsbph14

VC markets are close to frozen right now. I don’t think there’s reason to panic — mostly this is like March 2020 as everyone digests new info and waits for markets to stabilise. Expect a reopening in September.
