Once again, immigration is not even a problem. Immigrants are not more criminal, they don't cost jobs, they don't harm the economy. There is no reason for any of this. It is hurting ourselves to hurt them.

33 pages into @irismurdoch.bsky.social's "An Accidental Man" and she already wants me to keep track of Gracie, Clara, George, Patrick, Hester, Sebastian, Ralph, Ludwig, Geoffrey, Karen, Charlotte, Alison, Austin, Garth, Dorina, Mitzi, Mavis, Matthew, Penny, Charles, and Mollie. I need a map.

I forget who - I think a libertarian - tweeted once "my most right wing take is we should have open borders to triple global GDP. my most left wing take is we should have open borders because the status quo is a massive human rights violation"
Anyway, I can whinge about immigration all day long. What's distressing is that even since our book came out 7 years ago, it seems just about everyone has pulled away from the vision of a more open world. It's like the only issue that unites starry-eyed idealists and grumpy economists.

I finally got around to trying an AI coding assistant, in this case Claude Code at the command-line. I'm stunned. My jaw wouldn't have dropped so far if you picked me up in a flying car and had dinner and drinks beamed in from the restaurant of my choice. I love love love it.

Today it is 22 years since I stopped paying federal taxes. My decision to stop financially supporting the U.S. government has never seemed better than it does today.
