But then it is entirely rational on their part to stay on Twitter, especially if their goal is to reach as much people as possible.
Remember the 2022 crisis? The lettuce and all that? UK yields have already soared far beyond that crisis level.
Imagine if "it's a beautiful windy way" also meant death, now wouldn't that be funny

The American right has built an entire system designed to place young ideologues in positions of power. Liberalism failed to create a similar system, a function of its professional ethos and inability to think in ideological terms www.vox.com/on-the-right...
Fascism is when no masks
Oh mon Dieu ce genre de discours est insupportable. D'abbord il est parfaitement normal que le gouvernement attende de voir les effets de cette technologie sur la société avant de la rentrer dans les classes. Ensuite GPT 5 n'est pas une amélioration considérable par rapport aux modèles précédents.
Sorry but this is bad diplomacy. He shouldn't tie himself like this.
On DC and Trump's "ad hoc authoritarianism" www.vox.com/politics/458...
When was the last time we saw good restrictive fiscal policy?
Incredible. Well, I have to watch it now.
no way it's an actual quote
Sorry but it should be illegal to wear shorts with these "socks"
Or is it that people bingewatch so the time between watching seasons is longer?
Is the period of time between seasons longer than it was before the streaming era? (If so, why?)
They *want* to dilute the social meaning.
+Call for Goldman to fire the economist who predicted tariffs would produce stagflation
This is what he saying *before* confirmation. Just imagine what it's going to be like once he actually has the job.
Straight-up authoritarianism.

I can't really express why, but this one somehow feels deep.

No one is okay but some are less okay than others.
Are you okay?
Solid job market too.
2019 felt to me like the peak of the 2010s. We had no idea the pandemic was coming. The reaction to wokeness was gathering steam, but hadn't yet gone off the rails into demented MAGA stuff.
A *plurality* of worlds? Have you seen the state of the one we have got?
I thought this was super interesting
"Dig in your heels"? Miss, you should be running.
Venture capital, an industry known for its absence of uncertainty, where assessments are never revised. Of course. The contempt these people have for their followers has no bounds.
"Do you think the US should privatize Social Security or leave it as is?" Leave it as it: 72% Privatize it: 20% Data For Progress / Aug 3, 2025
For the love of God, delete this headline.
Yeah I think Shor's analogy with marriage before kids works better if that's the point you want to make. I just have a hard time believing that Conor Sen, who earns his living as a journalist, actually thinks learning to read and write is a pointless endeavor.
A charitable interpretation is that he means that it will be hard, not pointless.
This column tries to draw a distinction without a difference. "Cyclists have a right to bike lanes" and "Cyclists have right not to be harmed by the removal of bike lanes" is functionally the same thing. (Also, even if induced demand means commute time remains constant,traffic flow still increases.)

There is hope in the world. Maybe polarization will not consume us all in the end.
Oh yeah but courts and judges are definitely experts in the business of building roads
I would never dare to do a rewatch of Charmed. It lives in my mind as a captivating story of magic and drama, and seeing it for what it really was would no doubt shatter this memory.
All journal submissions and reviews should be publicly available.
I see. But I would draw a distinction between it being clear that your day was bad and it being clear that you meant that your day was bad.
Yes I agree that what someone intended can be vague. But it can also be vague what someone meant! If the vagueness of intention is systematically matched by a vagueness of meaning, doesn't that tell us that our analysis is on the right track?
Though I agree that intention is a somewhat vague concept that we should try to reduce to more primitive concepts.
Doesn't this example show why intention is important in the analysis of meaning? If you sighed without realizing that doing so would tell your friend that you are having a bad day (so you didn't intend for him to know it), that is something your friend learned, but it isn't something you meant.
I don't think we should group together "people condemning wokeness" as if they all had the same attitudes. Some of these people were problematic. But others were genuine liberals pointing out real problems of intolerance and censorship on the left.
"Do you think Trump was involved in crimes committed by Epstein?" All: Yes: 46% No: 32% Unsure: 23% Yes Among: Dems: 80% Ind: 47% GOP: 11% YouGov / July 28, 2025
Genre, je ne crois pas que Voltaire et Leibniz auraient été ah-ok avec l'idée de donner une amende à une église pour tenir un spectacle musical religieux.
Il demeure que les Lumières étaient en faveur de leur liberté d'expression.
Les Lumières du 18e siècle se battaient contre ces idées, mais elles ne se battaient pas contre la liberté de les exprimer.
it's always worlds where it's raining and never worlds where it's sunny
I know the concept, but I am skeptical that it constitutes a genuine category that separates it from "normal" choices. It is a concept that is notoriouly hard to define analytically. Some paths are more uncertain than others, but it seems to me that this is a difference of degree, not of kind.
To some extent, this is true of any path you choose in life.
In general, people don't post on social media to inquire, rather they post to broadcast their insights and their work.
“why do you want to work here” want is a strong word
Doesn't seem like the worst of outcomes, considering we need to increase military spending anyway? Especially if it allows us to avoid high tariffs.
Wrong graph buddy. You need to scroll up to the beginning of the thread.
Can't say I have seen a major change under Trump in how inflation is covered by the media, but maybe that's just me. I would point out that your graph show declining coverage of inflation by the media in the last year of Biden's presidency.
Because inflation has significantly come down from its 2022 peak?
The new "personality" changes to ChatGPT are horrible and I genuinely hope OpenAI changes course. Humanity needs ASI, not artificial super friendship.
The idea that friends and politics can somehow be kept separate betrays a very childish understanding of friendship imo. Politics and morality are interwoven, and of course morality affects who you choose as a friend.
(Forgot about History of Philosophy without any Gaps. But I meant something more long-form and with free-flowing conversations.)
There are no good philosophy podcasts anymore. All the good ones have either died down or fallen off in terms of quality. Someone need to pick up the torch!
Sometimes I think we have all been spoiled by the great 2000s-era TV shows like Mad Men and Sorpanos. Everything pales in comparison.
... do we really want to know the answer
No problem!
Right, there are serious problems with things like sports gambling. But I am unaware of any report or study claiming that a significant # of people are ruining their lives on Polymarket.
More people are considering AI lovers and we shouldn't judge.
Yes: elites pushing for higher immigration everywhere. It's not complicated.
Trump had promised to focus on rounding up immigrants with criminal records during his 2024 election campaign. Government data shows that actual ICE arrests skew heavily towards immigrants without criminal convictions. www.ft.com/content/bba4...
Ploymarket and PredicIt destroy lives?

I suspect that a lot of progressive dislike prediction markets and LLMs for the same reason; both are a non-human source of information on which they can't apply any kind of social pressure.
Overall I agree with you, but I don't think it is irrational of them to act like this. It's just an inevitable aspect of working in an institution with a hierarchy.
They don't say that working-class people can't think.

Been a while since I thought about these issues but my recollection is that Savage's theory is fine for modeling purposes while Jeffrey's is conceptually cleaner since it treats acts, states and outcomes as propositions.
based on this, it appears there would be an easy solution to our ills involving lobotomy

Powell should go to the cameras and say "I am not leaving". Make clear to Trump it is going to be ugly.

Le texte de Hachey mentionne plusieurs gouvernements et médias qui remettent en cause l'approche transaffirmative.
Tired: building a coalition of democracies to check China Wired: treating said democracies like vassal states
Oh I am sure this will go over well with left-wing populists in Brazil.
What happens if Harvard keeps issuing diplomas anyway? Do people really care if your Harvard degree isn't government-approved?
It is crazy that this even needs to be argued for. They should also be wearing a uniform.
Lost In Translation should have done this too. Missed opportunity imo.
