Uh no. It was based on the Laffer curve which was the work of Arthur Laffer. This piece of economic theory is probably the cause of more human suffering than most over military action. Blind belief in the markets is a simplified world view. But the Chicago school lives on.

If Trump or congress listened to economists, other that the ghouls from George Mason, there would be very few tariffs, intelligent tax policy, and a living minimum wage. I know and have learned a lot from quite a few economists, some fairly famous. But like move on petitions this will do nothing.

If the Liberty come to Minneapolis during the playoffs the Lynx should put Stewie’s travel on the ‘tron while the crowd counts the five steps. Commissioner Cathy will love that.

I have never been a fan of Jonquel’s game. She was the first to join Stewie in NY to try to build the super team. Clown move to be sure. She other ring and hopefully there won’t be any more. Now other ring chasers have accreted to the team. They need to he buried in the playoffs.

I would like to caution that the death of Trump just brings Vance and life will get exactly 0% better. There are at 25 - 50 top Republican officials who need to be buried before things are ok again. Also at least 5 billionaires.

Chris that’s great. But the fact you have MAGA neighbors and haven’t dragged them from their house and beaten them to death tells me you might not be ready for that seat in the assembly.

Well there goes your chance to punish her at the polls (or not). It only took completely breaking the economy and kidnapping people off the street. Let’s see who gets elected by Minnesota’s much maligned southern neighbor. Maybe they’ll elect “mystery box” Caitlin Clark.

I am surprised Cunningham hasn’t been obliterated by her colleagues or other teams. She is fighting for something (equal pay?) that is a joke to others who share her political beliefs. MPJ, true piece of shit that he is, is at least consistent. Sophie Cunningham can fuck all the way off. MPJ too.

Yep. If you violate your oath and there are no repercussions then the oath is just words and why bother. That’s why what happens post Trump better not be January 6th level soft pedaling.

Apparently their court isn’t owned by (checks notes): The Federalist Society, The Catholic Church, and Harlan Crow. Not to mention Trump himself. Mitch McConnell can get fucked.

But calling it AI is absurd. Models can really help humans be more productive and do difficult pattern matching very quickly. If we limited use cases to these kinds of things we’d be so much better off. Generalized models are going to be crap.
therealnbw.bsky.social (@therealnbw.bsky.social) reply parent
Neural nets are great for pattern matching in unstructured data like photos (finding breast tumors) language (how do people with mental illness answer these questions?) They can be a real tool when trained on supervised data (these photos are breast tissue tagged for tumors.

The Lynx earned it, the collapse started in the second quarter the Lynx just letting the storm chip away. No one from the Lynx stepped up.

You can’t win em all. But maybe don’t give up a twenty-one point lead to down twelve with less than three left. I don’t know what happened. But the Lynx are cooked.

The Lynx defense is disappointing. They better hope they don’t see the Storm in the playoffs.

This is why taxing diseconomies is good policy. But it’s also market regulation. It’s less frictional than relying on the courts.
therealnbw.bsky.social (@therealnbw.bsky.social) reply parent
Markets aren’t the efficient solution the Chicago school would have you believe. For example, at some point pollution becomes expensive enough that companies stop polluting. That point will likely be too late to save the environment. Economists love t-> infinity but at that point everyone is dead.
