Yes, this! If you were designing policies to drive up prices, you could go a long way towards that goal by hiking tariffs and disrupting the flow of oil. Just because it hasn’t gotten that bad yet, doesn’t mean the economy hasn’t been poorly managed

Planning to shut down airspace to a city for 10 days is more than a little unusual—and then changing their mind adds to the oddity. Not sure if it’s nefarious, but definitely odd, amateurish and unprofessional

Thank you!!!

Also New Haven is up 10 over Boston College at the half

On the remote chance that they come up with one, I’m going to predict that this will be just like NAFTA—he will come up with Obamacare, rename it trumpcare and declare victory

Largest study of its kind shows AI assistants misrepresent news content 45% of the time – regardless of language or territory An intensive international study was coordinated by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) and led by the BBC

Yet again, we can't afford to let LLMs become a source of epistemic grounding for society.

EPA Commissioner Lee Zeldin announces his agency is launching a major investigation into the right-wing conspiracies about chemtrails and weather manipulation to get to the bottom of it.

I’m puzzled. Even if it had been off the record, what was she hoping for? A retraction saying that a source within the justice department assured me that James is guilty? That wouldn’t convince anyone.

How soon you forget the birthright citizenship fiasco

Not just the generals—what about that UN speech. A national embarrassment of the highest order—nobody could watch that and think the man is well.

But…is the judge a Trump appointee?

The New York Times piece today about US science is terrible and wrong—in many ways.

I could write a whole article about this, but as one example:

“To close observers, the original crisis began well before any of this…”
No. I’m a close observer of science, and this is incorrect.

So so so so stupid. He also doesn’t have a clue about the difference between a budget deficit and trade deficit

The vast majority of disciplines

Good that Powell is maintaining his independence, but shouldn’t we be a bit worried that his term is ending soon

I had a similar revelation about the cpi a couple of days ago after going out for lunch and buying groceries. The low inflation doesn’t jibe with my personal experience

I’m still fairly convinced his personal is just a parody—and yet now he is being nominated to be an ambassador.

Not a shock to many of us outsiders

I would bet large amounts of money that he saw the word equity in the title and that set him off. Same story with his inability to differentiate budget deficit from trade deficit.

Does Tommy Tuberville count?

Also, Tuvalu is spelled wrong

Something I’m not getting here. There are many many more people in the US than Canada, so most flights originate from US. Is there a reason why fewer US people are flying to Canada?

I think it is simply that they are easiest to fire. There is no thought given to necessity or value

As a Broncos fan, I suffered through a bunch of them

I got in. It appears to work now

Me too. Hard. To know what to make of it. It isn’t the first time it has been down, but the timing is….suspicious

Since ChatGPT invents sources, it must be okay…right?

Now that is a headline!

I think this maybe the end of the take-home test.
