A friend of mine stopped a hiring process with Anthropic because he read Dario Amodei's "Machines of Loving Grace" thing and his takeaway was "this man is an idiot".

Which is to say, in the ballpark of having Elon Musk as your CEO if likely not as extreme. DM me for further detail if you like...

Geraardsbergen as the riders went up the classic cobbled Muur. We couldn't stay in Geraardsbergen at that point -- hotels were unobtainable -- but Gent had plenty of options and would make for an easy morning ride over to G'bergen thereafter. We were frankly blown away by how much we enjoyed Gent.

Yes, yes. Possibly my favorite city in Europe, definitely top 5.

My family and I first stayed there in 2019 on a bike tour where, that part of the journey, we wanted to see stage 2 of Le Tour de France, which was starting in Belgium; in particular we wanted to see the peloton in

Just for those taking notes in the back of the room, peak inflation rate in the Biden presidency was ~9.1% in 2022.

The peaks of the 1970s-into-1980 stagflation crisis hit ~13.5% in 1974 and ~14.5% in mid-1980.

Carl (Buscemi's character) from Fargo agrees! What happened to him was one-remaining-foot last, too

Like... Riverhead NY maybe? Which doesn't even call itself a city.

In 2016 Phoenix voted red at the presidential level but not since then iirc

This man should run for office somewhere. I would vote for him
