It really takes a lot for me to say this, but the Graham tweet is genuinely a pretty offensive thing to say.
Despite seeing several people I totally trust say this was real I still felt I had to verify it with my own eyes. And having done so I still can't believe it's real.

My thoughts on Bluesky verification as someone who was deeply involved in an analogous scheme (selecting trusted root CAs for browsers) at Mozilla many years ago. The analogy is not exact: not trusting a verifier just means no checkmark, while not trusting a root CA means nasty security warnings 1/

You can get hard, concrete proof that parliamentary systems are superior because the Trump Crash and the Truss budget crisis were basically the same and one resulted in the head of state serving for less than four weeks and the other being irrevocably in charge for four entire years

Rīgas IKEA autostāvlaukums ir tieši tikpat liels kā divi kvartāli Rīgas centrā ar 40 ēkām! Interesanti, ka lielveikalos no stāvlaukuma cilvēki ir gatavi iet vairākus simtus metru pēc nepieciešamās preces, bet pilsētas centrā stāvvietai jābūt noteikti pie katra veikala durvīm.

Pirmo veloceļu posmu būvniecība jau notiek dzelzceļa mobilitātes punktu ietvaros, pavasarī tiks uzsākta savienojošo posmu projektēšana.

A tricky thing about modern society is that no one has any idea when they don’t die.
Like, the number of lives saved by controlling air pollution in America is probably over 200,000 per year, but the number of people who think their life was saved by controlling air pollution is zero.

Keynesianism is like Ozempic in that it's something that works but makes people mad because they want moral hazard to be involved
There’s a certain kind of person who thinks Keynesian stimulus is “putting off” a necessary correction and I’m always amazed how many of them there are.
What if MAGA did the Great Leap Forward?

Elon's involvement in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race cost his candidate around 5% of the vote--even though he spent $25 million dollars on his behalf.
Elon's endorsee ran 5 points behind the other statewide Republican candidate. That's an unbelievably negative return on investment.

There's no reason to beat around the bush on this: Trump's Ukraine plan is literally just to make Ukraine an American colony. He's trying to divide up the country with Russia like Germany did with Poland.

NATO leaders now speak Gaullism with an accent. Atlanticism is their first language. I do not think that will be the case 15-20 years from now.
