"I care about social cohesion and social solidarity, which is why I tried to convince white people in Ohio that Haitian immigrants were eating their dogs." Naturally, Douthat does not challenge him at all on these lies.

I thought the death of Maude Flanders stopped 'won't someone think of the children' being an obvious sign of useless concern trolling which Chris Rufo turned into a career. But it's Helen Lovejoy's catchphrase.

The most valuable thing you can do if you want to feed Gazans is to donate to the WFP, WCK, or Anera - three organizations with the operational capacity to translate USD into (1) food, (2) transport, and (3) distribution into Gaza. A dollar is nothing if it can’t be shown to buy results.

I think it’s kind of interesting that so many cultural and political elites decided “learning loss” from remote schooling during a pandemic was so severe it was worth ignoring medical safety, while actual learning loss from AI is pervasive and growing and they all want to impose more of it on us.

Intrigued by a recent gothamchess vs chatgpt4 in which (for the first time) it played legal moves most of the first half. Previously I think it played probable moves given the move number, with only coincidental legitimacy.

political journalists obsess over the public’s lack of trust in our profession but strangely see that as downstream of things like “we didn’t talk enough about how biden was old” and not “many of us appear to be indifferent to a nihilistic attack on the constitution”

At my son's school they insist on calling the children 'young people' and referring to one as a 'young person' and it has started to make 'kids' feel like a slur.

I think the thing the quants are right about is that although you can sense and shape public opinion, one's ability to fool oneself about how much and how many people like you is profound.

In Riddley Walker, Russell Hoban talks about 'first knowing' and 'second thoughts', which maps to naive induction vs critical realist thinking.

Australia first implemented compulsory voting, requiring that all eligible citizens vote, in 1925. Turnout skyrocketed immediately, from 60 percent in 1922 to 91 percent in 1925—and it has since stayed at roughly that level. boltsmag.org/compuls...

A good follow-up question when a press secretary says Trump called Fox to say he hated their polls would 'Is he stupid?'. Also works if he says typed letters are tattoos or that foreigners pay the tarriffs: 'Are you stupid?'
