@Kash_Patel You took a government plane over there, by lying about being on official business. Corrupt as all the rest of this administration.

@BjarturTomas If you all had MBA’s, you would snip off 10-20% of each bill before you passed it on, and use the same bills each year.

Every member of my family has a PhD in economics. We have a quaint, gift-giving tradition where we all sit in a circle around the Christmas tree. We each take out a crisp 100 dollar bill and gift it to the person sitting to our right.

This was a real pleasure and honor, thanks @TheStalwart and @tracyalloway for the opportunity. I hope this strips back some of the mystique of the quant trading world, and adds an interesting element to peoples understanding to the "AI story" we're all living through, that is distinct from LLMs.

NEW ODD LOTS: It’s @iaindunning @tracyalloway and I talk to the head of AI at @weHRTyou. We talk about how a major US market maker actually uses AI, why Al is the right term, predicting stock prices and the electricity bottleneck to doing it better podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/odd…

@infraa_ Sounds like excessive tax avoidance by the wealthy.

It's actually even worse than this: Medicare alone has grown at 8x the rate of GDP or revenue (from 3% of tax receipts to now 24%) Social Security has grown 2.3x the rate of GDP/tax receipts In 1968, these two budget items were 15% of revenue In 2025, they're now 56%

What an insane chart. The younger generation actively subsidizes the boomers, despite them owning 50% of all collective wealth in America This system used to work when the next generation was promised a better future than the prior one. Just not the case anymore

@dieworkwear Paddington’s wool coat is called a duffel coat. In the 50s, 60s & 70s almost every UK child had one, usually in grey, black or navy. They were actually pretty impractical because the wind and rain (typical British weather) would blow through the gaps between the toggles.

A short, incomplete list of menswear "trends" that originated with imperialism and war. 🧵
Justin A@jtatkins

@francoisk @dieworkwear Far right? Shit I vote far left in Canada. I don’t have a side. I literally follow him for the clothing tweets and I didn’t realize clothing trends were related to imperialism. My bad.

@RussInCheshire No judge would chose jail time for him, given the certainty that it would not happen and the certainty of the retribution.

LETS GET SOMETHING STRAIGHT. The American People voted to absolutely make sure LOADS of people would die at Trumps hands. - Their daughters, their wives, children & their fellow citizens will die from school shootings, pregnancy & easily cured diseases. -It’s free hunting season for blacks with immunity for white cops. - Muslims & Latinos will DEFINITELY die in mass deportation roundups/camps. - Gaza will be bulldozed if not ethnically cleansed. - Iranians who want democracy will die. - Ukrainians are dying in droves already. If you think your family is immune from Trumps dementia & chaos that is coming? Did you forget about Covid?

When looking at the RAM usage of a Linux server, people often focus on FREE memory ❌ They should instead focus on available memory ✅ Let me explain why

Honestly, what worries me most isn’t domestic policy. Though that terrifies me. It’s NATO. It’s the idea that America will no longer be a world leader. It’s that we helped make the world more free and more democratic and there aren’t any adults left.

Dear @RepMikeLawler: “Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed. That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore.”

@jeffreyhoward33 Assign them a good movie from then. Perhaps suggest they focus on the tech and not the moody lighting. :)

Ummm, if you're standing on line to vote in New Jersey or anywhere, it can't possibly be legal to wear a maga hat, right? Isn't that called electioneering?
