This chud has been begging for a social media career for like a decade. Started on WSO trying to be an investment banking influencer and then did some media startup I think. One cool thing about social media wannabes (read: grifters) is that when they inevitably run for office they leave behind them a procession of highly visible and often value-contradictory failed attempts at elevating their profile. This one did enough research to know saying “America First” will get the definitely-real engagement Fishback and Fuentes enjoy. Anyways, jeans don’t look quite right on your, Mark. Stick to sharkskin slacks.

@RyanGeddie Literally cannot imagine a whicktv panel including yglesias and, like, Ezra Klein. Can you imagine @PiscoLitty having an argument with yglesias going “YES OR NO MATT YES OR NO” at the end of every question

Good luck and Godspeed to all the mainstream pundits who are about to engage with a bunch of politics streamers who have more lore than World of Warcraft.

@RichardHanania Thankfully richard was on the case and in his characteristic fashion provided no meaningful challenge or pushback when Fishback came on the show. I like your Substack but you should avoid holding interviews with people like Fishback until you develop some resolve.

Fishback tells a black guy he should be lynched for accusing him of having sex with a minor.

You can just Google it, was an extremely obscure term from the 1800s that became used by people other than Jewish scholars during the evangelical religious revival of the 1970s. So as a concept as we understand it, it didn’t exist in the founding era, so it would be odd to say the country is “founded on those values” unless you mean it incidentally, and the country was founded incidentally on all kinds of random values that just so happen to be encompassed in the set of values the country was actually founded on. Which btw are not “christian”

@AnaKasparian I never have. Feel free to continue lying publicly, though. Those checks don’t cash themselves and you aren’t talented enough to be relevant with the truth.

I just joined Facebook. Is there anything for me to do there? Do serious people post there or is it all Boomer rants? I was thinking about whether it's a good place to post articles. People have been asking to be friends. Should I accept them all? facebook.com/profile.php?id…

@lurking2472 @MattBruenig @mattyglesias The relevance being that the claim is AI driven disemployment will basically mean only move people down the abstraction ladder which people don’t want to do

It really is notable that contra Andreesen *all* the leaders of top AI companies — including the decidedly non-leftist Elon Musk — say their work will generate massive disemployment. They may be wrong but it’s not a “doomer” take, it’s what AI bulls think!

Sure, it’s true that not all the innovations reshaping the workforce allowed people to go from manual labor to intellectual labor, but I can’t think of directionally reversed (you’d know the history better than me here) and that seems like a redistribution of labor that exactly nobody is excited about. Understand though that this is a separate issue from the “AI leads to optional employment” issue

@doodlebugstinks @mattyglesias I am not sure the shift from agriculture to industry required a lot of extra abstract thinking from workers. Indeed, one of the big critiques of the shift was that it replaced the independent thinking and planning of farming with mind-numbing routinized labor

@MattBruenig @mattyglesias It’s just them being honest. Unlike previous labor-saving innovation AI is good at abstract thinking, it disemploys abstract thinkers, and it doesn’t free them up to do abstracter thinking because the AI will be better at that too. Womp womp :(

@mattyglesias More AI people would be wise, both in the interest of public relations and interest of being correct on the merits, to just say that AI is a labor-saving technology and, like all other such technologies, it is unclear how the reallocation of factors will go.

@doodlebugstinks @phl43 @marginletter Hundreds of stations in Australia have already reported running out of gasoline. You either pay some guy $200 for gas or you get nothing. People should take this seriously and try to reduce their consumption. You can still stockpile though.

@QuatoofCapital @phl43 @marginletter I understand that you can charge more money for something when demand goes up but I am a little skeptical of the Hormuz situation inducing demand in this case given that, as of now, it has not done that. We will see though!

@phl43 @marginletter This is a surprising answer because your tweet implies you should definitely say some number much higher than 15% and explain why

Philippe Lemoine@phl43·
I can't tell you how much the price of oil will rise exactly, because unlike you I'm not retarded so I understand that it depends on exactly how long Hormuz stays closed and whether oil infrastructure in the Gulf is seriously damaged, which nobody knows. But I don't need to know that to understand that the reasoning I mention in the OP is economically illiterate. Frankly, if you continue you may soon become the first person I block on this website, because I'm growing tired of seeing your unhinged and idiotic takes under every single tweet I make.

With disappointment and resentment I am chagrined to report I also just used starlink on an airplane and it was amazing and seamless and I also couldn’t believe it was free.

Starlink is actually that good
