Today, President Barack Obama and I read to a group of toddlers at Learning Through Play Pre-K Center in the South Bronx. 

In between singing wheels on the bus, we discussed our administration’s vision for this City — one where New York’s Cutest have the strongest start possible.

I will always find it confusing that some people think a person riding a $2000 bike to commute is a privileged elitist but the guy in the $80k truck that costs $150 to fill is the working class average joe.

If you have a degree from a fancy University, but believe:

Money printing doesn’t cause inflation;
Net-zero policies create prosperity ;
Governments can pick winners and losers better than free markets;

Then you have been badly educated. 

Remember, lots of world leaders with impressive degrees have inflicted great harm on their countries. 

Carney’s diplomas can’t cover up the fact he had a terrible tenure at the Bank of England. 

Or that he is giving Canada the worst economy in the G7.

The US isn’t happy about Canada’s quest for digital sovereignty

The new Shared Services Canada proposal for government providers will mean that US big tech won't be eligible for contracts.

It is a trend many countries are starting to follow. France being the most recent one to do the same 🇨🇦 🇪🇺

Rapid concerted switching of the neural code in the inferotemporal cortex - Nature Face cells in the macaque inferotemporal cortex are initially able to detect faces and then rapidly switch to a face-specific neural code to discriminate between different face identities.

This looks like a significant discovery from Doris Tao's lab:

"..our findings indicate that there is a previously unknown mechanism for neural representation:.."

Magyar rejects calls for Ukraine to cede territory, invokes Hungary's 1956 resistance "If someone says this — no matter how long Fidesz politicians have said similar things — you should ask them what would happen if Russia attacked Hungary: which Hungarian county would they give up?" P...

Magyar has spent recent months being very cagey about his views on Ukraine.

This is a really fantastic sign. kyivindependent.com/asking-ukrai...

We are stronger. More united.

To the people of Hungary - you've done it again.

You have spoken.

You have chosen Europe.

It's a victory for fundamental freedoms.

for sure, congratulations to magyar. but the real heroes imo are those in civil society & journalism & rank-and-file opposition & academia who have fought against the disintegration of rule of law, the weaponization of the courts/media, & so much more for so long. 🇭🇺
