It's worth calling out the other things Republicans and Democrats agree on--almost everybody seems to agree that eating meat, using IVF to get pregnant, using contraceptives, and drinking alcohol are NOT immoral.
Samuel Benson@sambbenson
Interesting new @pewresearch analysis: Infidelity is the lone issue polled that a majority of both Republicans and Democrats agree is immoral 88% of Democrats and 93% of Republicans say married people having an affair is wrong

a LessWrong education is in many ways more "classical" than the novo classical schools
in Plato's ideal city the philosopher-kings have to study the frontier of math for 10 years, which he treats as a prerequisite for philosophizing
this idea persists among medieval writers too

Estaba explorando el indice de uso de Claude de Anthropic, y me parece entre interesante y deprimente que México tenga una de las tasas de uso más bajas de Latam.
Chile por ejemplo tiene un indice de uso de mas del doble que México. Esto nos habla mucho de la adopción de la IA como agente de programación. Ya que los principales usos de Claude en México son para temas académicos y de progrmación.

Easily the funniest part of the government's argument, IMO. Essentially, they're saying that Hegseth's "Effective immediately" tweet was so obviously unlawful and unenforceable that Anthropic shouldn't be allowed to challenge it.

Possibly my favorite FAQ item on a conference website ever.
Question: "Why have prices gone up so much?
Answer: *just a supply and demand diagram*

@KelseyTuoc @LeahLibresco More broadly, this is voters being individually rational—most people aren’t doctors, so they rely on heuristics like party. If you tell them “Rs proposed X” people assume it’s controversial (or you wouldn’t be polling it) and go off of which party they trust more on abortion
English
@KelseyTuoc @LeahLibresco should be uploading a paper about this very soon. TL;DR: people give wildly inconsistent answers to binary questions. The responses end up looking much more consistent if you ask them about things on a continuous scale.

If you looked *only* at polls, you would expect nearly every state would ban abortion after 20 weeks, and that most would ban it after the first trimester.
And yet.
Ryan Burge 📊@ryanburge
People were asked at what point in gestation should a woman be allowed to have an abortion. 72% of atheists said it should be permitted after 20 weeks. Only 11% of Southern Baptists agreed with that time frame.

@SpencerBar47026 @atlanticesque @AlecStapp I looked it up and apparently it's because they can be used like a normal car and they don't want the temptation or the social consequences of people being able to travel long distances

@StatsLime @atlanticesque @AlecStapp Horses do the same thing. They probably love their horses and see them as family

Washing machines are the *only* modern invention which every single Amish group has embraced at least to some extent
Washing clothes is truly the worst chore without modern technology, bar none
VB Knives@Empty_America
There are an infinite number of posts on X expressing nostalgia for time periods before the invention of the modern washing machine.

@cremieuxrecueil "as an excuse" seems wrong (at least if we're talking about long-run causal effects). More likely this is the tariff having some kind of indirect effect, e.g. increasing risk that the retailer has to be compensated for.
English
This was neat:
Researchers traced a tariff on $5 European wines into the U.S. to see who paid it.
The tariff itself was $1.19, producers paid $0.26 and importers took a $0.44 cut, but retailers used the tariff as an excuse to add a $1.10 margin. The price went up $1.59 (~32%):
