@Tina_Ry_7 @ronsterd89 Some caramelized onions

@ronsterd89 Mayo instead of butter.

What can you add to a grilled cheese sandwich to make it even better?

@nntaleb Ban away, ban all fans, the US is heading in that direction. What a horror show. Go to the games in Canada and Mexico.

Some hotels are giving 60% discounts, so far.

@audowla @mattyglesias A well designed antitrust policy should contribute to efficiency and economic growth but will not control inflation.

@mattyglesias Lina Khan sparked that debate with her now-infamous law review article, The Amazon Paradox.

@awg_allan @VincentGeloso @serenelyjoyful Of course some would say writing skills are obsolete, since AI does it better. But, in the human brain, writing and thinking are tightly bound up, so when writing goes, thinking is next.

@awg_allan @VincentGeloso @serenelyjoyful Vincent. In class evaluations with no devices is all you have left. Agree with Allan, several in-class quizzes, and how about write a couple of 1000 word essays. Can also do this in a final exam. The essays force students to maintain writing skills, which many are likely losing.

Asking all the economists here. This fall, I teach economic history to undergraduates again. Its a writing-heavy class (usually with papers) but with AI, I cannot do it the way I used to. I experimented with new grading methods but did not like them. Can you give me your best experiments?

@markgoldbridge It’s ridiculous to blame the ref and not the player

In a game of this magnitude that's ridiculous to send Camavinga off for that

@AlexTaylorNews You can’t make this guy up

Vance says the Pope "should be more careful when talking about theology" 👇NY Times What a time to be alive 🤡

@IsabelOakeshott @NoContextBrits Mushrooms, fried tomatoes and perhaps toast the toast next time.

@NoContextBrits A cooker?

What’s missing from this breakfast?

@Logically_JC Moscow is the obvious choice

Where should we send him next?

@jonfavs 55% of US Catholics voted for Trump. Real genius move insulting the Pope.

The Pope - the first American Pope, no less - isn't just the leader of the Catholic Church as an institution. His interpretation of Jesus's teachings represents the moral and spiritual foundation of the religion. The President just attacked him as weak and accused him of not caring about human lives - and the actual White House promoted it. America's got more than 50 million Catholics.

@AlexKleeman Property taxes are progressive and they pay for local services. What’s not to like?

@Tina_Ry_7 @joncoopertweets @AlwaysYvonneMac Yes indeed.

@joncoopertweets @AlwaysYvonneMac That’s great news for the world!

🚨🚨MAJOR BREAKING: Opposition leader Péter Magyar WINS the election for prime minister of Hungary, defeating Putin and Trump’s ally Viktor Orbán. 🇭🇺

@ByrneHobart Yes economics clearly causes longevity

Milton Friedman died at 94. Ronald Coase at 102. Arnold Harberger is still alive at 101. I don't know which school of economics will ultimately turn out to be truest, but you should probably believe in the Chicago School if you want to live long enough to find out.

@VincentGeloso @JoshWright1977 Wonderful paper I agree. I used to teach it every year.

Harold Demsetz’s "Barriers to Entry" article is like the Living Daylights movie with Timothy Dalton: the best in a series that is unrecognized as being the best

@acoyne Don’t forget that Iran was not in control of the Strait of Hormuz before the US and Israel attacked them.

So after all this: - The Iranian regime remains in place - The enriched uranium remains in place - Iran remains in control of the Strait of Hormuz, though it agrees to let ships through, for now - The US agrees to talks based on Iran’s terms, including an end to all sanctions and Iran gets to charge $2 million a ship for passage through the Strait, in perpetuity. - Meanwhile NATO is in ruins, the US and Israel are at odds, the Gulf States know they cannot depend on the US to protect them, etc etc etc “Another such victory and we are undone!”

@jeanpire33 @anneapplebaum Stolen from Mark Carney, but still a good idea

Idée visionnaire d’Emmanuel Macron : "Dans le monde d’aujourd’hui, je discerne une troisième voie. Une voie qui réunit la Corée, l’Europe, le Canada, le Japon, l’Inde, le Brésil et l’Australie. Il s’agit d’un format pour les pays qui ne souhaitent ni dépendre de la Chine ni se ranger automatiquement aux côtés des États-Unis. Il s’agit de souveraineté, et non de soumission. "

@ojblanchard1 Yes this is why a system of government should prevent unchecked exercise of power by one person.

Let me clarify. Part of Trump is endogenous: Witness the rise of the autocrats, and populist parties, around the world. When Trump is gone, those forces will still be present. But I would still argue that much of what he does is idiosyncratic, that the R2 of his behavior on whatever factors you can think of is low. My argument was about the lasting effects of the idiosyncratic part.

@Tina_Ry_7 @james_xond I think I am on shot #11 and thankful to have taken every one.

@james_xond Yes, happy to have taken it.

Be honest…If you could go back, would you make the same choice about the COVID shot?

@joshgans Better than three forthcoming papers missing

AER Insights has three “Missing” papers forthcoming.

@anneapplebaum That is a striking similarity. Wrong in both cases.

“It will just open up naturally,” Trump says about the Strait of Hormuz. He also once said, at the beginning of the pandemic, that COVID would end by itself. "One day — it’s like a miracle — it will disappear"
