TRACKED CHANGES: Baker McKenzie is dropping the billable hour as its default and moving clients to value-based fees.
Its global chair says charging by the hour doesn't always make sense anymore with AI, the WSJ reports.
Grok, who was the better guitar player, Van Halen or Slash?
Hey @grok, which billionaire tech founder is actually the most technically skilled? Rank Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Bill Gates, Jensen Huang and Sam Altman. Judge their real technical abilities, not their wealth.

Same taste in footwear and vehicles
The Cybertruck is getting discontinued after 3 short years and less than 100,000 sales! I paid $110,873 all cash for mine two years ago.
It is still the biggest financial transaction of my life.
I understand why it’s getting discontinued. In order of importance:
- Elon lied to use about range
He offered a range extender package to boost the range from 300 miles to 500 miles for $16,000. I put the deposit on that and then it was abruptly canceled and refunded. This gave me intense buyers remorse
- the cybertruck became a symbol of right wing politics
Driving a cybertruck in SF caused me to get flipped off by so many people on a near-daily basis. Sometimes people would scream at me and tell me I’m a terrible human being.
- they optimized for speed over convenience
I couldn’t use my truck to tow my stuff from SF to Las Vegas in January because charging the cybertruck requires you to unhitch the tow which is insanely cumbersome. On top of that, towing reduces the range from 300 miles to 150 miles! It’s cool it can go 0 to 60 in less than 3 seconds but that’s a fun gimmick more than something that seriously impacts my life.
Do I regret buying my super fast dumpster? Absolutely not. It changed my perspective on the world.
Now I own a 2024 foundation model Cyberbeast which they only made ~10,000 of total. So my truck will probably appreciate in value as Tesla becomes more successful.
It’s also DataExpert.io’s company vehicle so it saved me ~$35,000 on my taxes when I bought it in 2024. So it’s a $75,000 speedy dumpster not a $110,000 speedy dumpster.
It has been a very strange journey with the Cybertruck!

Vini was never truly a special player - and none of the players in his mold are world class for more than a few seasons.
Imagine becoming so bad that people believe a conspiracy that you died and have been cloned…
Yea, let’s talk about Vinicius Jr. on YouTube… wtf is happening with Brazilian 🇧🇷 star??!?

Can his career nose dive any deeper?
I’m here for it.
Nothing personal, Brende, my gripe is with the bullshit machine.

If you have a chance to see this guy sing and play guitar on the songs that he writes, you should.

Yes, my ass is too wide to sit in the cart. Yes, those are my keys on the ground.
There’s no decent replacement for Balo, Puli, Wes, Jedi, Richards or Freeman—and we don’t even have a reasonable first string goalie or second center back.
Shut up.
With the addition of 10-15 prospects, the USMNT 🇺🇸 player pool just expanded to the point where we have depth. Good players with strong cases to be on the roster will be left off, simply because there's no space.
Margins are small. Fewer players are safe. Welcome to having real depth.

Some are much better off focusing on their club situation and will have opportunities if club form holds up.
Some absolutely suck and should never be called again.
If I'm Tessmann, Morris, Weah, Scally, McKenzie, Aaronson or Musah, I'm looking at this roster & panicking. This is what depth looks like. Guys with a case to be in the roster getting pushed out by other options.
The days of being on cruise control are over.
