@bundesliga-en.bsky.social @espn.com why is the ESPN app not bringing up Bundesliga games when I click on them? Why is ESPn so consistently bad? I wish Bundesliga would contract with someone else for the US market.

Coming soon to MAGA-land …
North Korea held a farewell ceremony for soldiers killed in Russia’s Kursk region. State TV aired footage of Kim Jong Un tearfully standing by a coffin — including hired state actors who were forced to cry. A concert in East Pyongyang also featured Russian songs.

Zero-sum thinking is a key mindset that shapes how we view the world. A little thread to highlight our work on its roots with @sahilchinoy.bsky.social,

@nmalhotra.bsky.social listened to the if/then podcast. Your cockroach example is wrong. The choices were an exterminator, known con-artist who already did significant damage to your house. He tells you that the problem is much bigger than you think and will kill you and only he can save you.

@gruber.foo I watched the Bill Maher segment you recommended. Was far less impressed with it than you were. He barely challenged Bannon who clearly said the plan is to overturn the constitution. Weak.

“No one in the history of the world has lived better than we have.” Parker Posey’s Victoria Ratliff’s character in White Lotus. So true - and then we elected Trump.

“A Fraudster always makes the loudest noise.” Like POTUS?
BREAKING: Trump's billionaire Commerce Secretary says that seniors won't care if they don't get their Social Security checks — and that anyone who does complain is a fraudster.

@nytimes.com app is very bad. Why is there no easily accessible search bar in your iPad app? The for you section is worthless. It’s impossible to find the articles I actually want to read. Why is this so bad?

Week 2: This week's theory paper in focus is a brilliant conceptual puzzle piece by Thomas & Worrall (1990). What are the implications of risk sharing/insurance provision over time when income is private? They have a surprising answer: it necessarily leads to long-term impoverishment.

As if 2024 didn't have enough great news, today the admin of the london fixed gear and single speed (lfgss) forum has announced they're forced to shut down by the looming online safety act, enforced by @ofcom.bsky.social . Admin doesn't have the resources to manage the new regulation so off it goes.
