@Timodc @_Derek_Morgan We will find out: A. They are J6ers pardoned by Trump B. They are Proud Boys C. They have arrests for domestic violence D. All the above

Jesse Watters: You were never on Jeffrey Epstein's jet were you? RFK Jr: I was on it two times. My wife had some kind of relationship with Ghislaine Maxwell.

Bruce Springsteen appeared on Stephen Colbert’s show tonight and COOKED Trump and his goons “I’m here in support tonight for Stephen, because you are the first guy in America who lost his show because we got a president who can't take a joke…. and because Larry and David Ellison feel they need to kiss his ass to get what they want. Stephen, these are small minded people. They got no idea what the freedoms of this beautiful country are supposed to be about”

@MollyJongFast @meg_Y12 I guarantee the teacher in Queens pays more than Bezos now

Willing to give it a go

@scarylawyerguy Comey - prosecuted Martha Stewart and torpedoed Hillary Clinton. He targets successful women

Pretty rich for the guy who violated DOJ standards and norms not once but twice in 2016 by publicly commenting on his investigation of Hillary's email server, to whine about this. Just zero self-awareness but the media loves him and hate Hillary so he gets a pass.

"Billionaires will leave if you tax them," is a myth created by billionaires so you won't tax them.

@ModeledBehavior It's okay for socialists to make money and have expensive things, I just don't expect them to have tax shelters and offshore accounts

Why don't we expect socialists to give their money away the same way we expect vegetarians to not eat meat?

Johnny was just the best. If any of the major networks yanked the crap on now and played Carson reruns, they would own that timeslot.

Speaking of accountability... Is this you?

Every US domestic problem today can be traced back to Reagan

A commenter notes that "Trump managed to be both Hitler and Chamberlain in the same negotiation. An unprecedented feat." 😭

You are not a Democrat. Go ask Jill Stein to do something.

Damn.

You wanted this

Did Jake Sherman just both sides an illegal war? Yes, Jake Sherman just both sides-ed an illegal war. You really do not hate the media enough.

@atrupar @FreedomTruthJoy Can we please stop with the “just got off the phone with the president” shit. You’re not special. He’s using you. Stop.

@arindube Those who focus on problem definition will succeed with AI.

I've spent a lot of time with Claude Code in the past 4 months. There have been 3 types of interactions. I want to share a bit here, since most of my fellow economists have a lot to say about AI, apparently. 1) Specific coding asks - too many to count, very much productivity enhancing in specific tasks. Saves time in routine programming. Great. 2) Working with CC with a lot of interaction to model and calibrate: a ton of hand holding but getting very quick feedback on ideas and iteration. I have only *one* successful example of that and it'll likely go into a publication. Very productive, but largely as a highly effective RA who happens to be able to give very fast feedback on ideas (like simulating a model, or estimating using data, to test out a hypothesis). And it took a lot of my time to make it work, with tons of time where CC was going to go off the deep end without my hand holding. So, my managerial capacity was absolutely a critical constraining factor. I can't do this for too many projects. 3) Letting CC "write a paper" from scratch on an interesting topic and prompts, and minimal detailed instructions. Here I found CC roaming free to be highly unpredictable in quality, and largely a disappointment. On matters I have expertise it would often go on the wrong track and reach a dead end unless I veered it away. This includes theory and empirics. When I let it just write a paper based on its findings the quality was questionable, and at the minimum would require major time commitment to make it viable. I have 3 such full-paper drafts. I doubt any of them will see the light of the day. Maybe someone smarter than me can seed CC with the right starting point to produce an enormous number of successful papers. Or, maybe not. Bottom line: based on my very personal experience (not gonna say you all are like me), this makes me feel (1) there are very clear but limited productivity gains in the pipeline (2) people who appear to think we're at the cusp of the singularity will probably be deeply disappointed.

It's like the bizarro version of that "Obama Anger Translator" skit Key and Peele did back in the day. Good work @seungminkim 🙄
