@ohabryka did you guys consider the temple of wings for lighthaven?

I can't believe this Getty mansion is still for sale. $5M in Berkeley.

@GrablyR @drethelin Wow, this had happened at DGSE not too long ago too!

I don't think the article engages seriously enough with the differences in cultures between source populations. There's a brief mention of "low geographic distance to culturally more proximate countries" but then the article pivots to within-source-country selection effects (which tbc, also play a huge role).
My guess is that beyond selection effects and labor market flexibility, the fact that almost half of immigration to France is from Maghreb and subsaharan Africa compared to Latin America for the US has a large effect.
I'm not super confident, but I do think it's a pretty big near-omission.

I have a piece @TheArgumentMag on why the US is so much better at immigration than Europe. As someone who's lived in and studied both, I've been thinking about it a lot.
Anyone who opines on migration on either side would benefit from acknowledging the complete US superiority.

It's been known for a while that Canon from @ZeyuanAllenZhu is a monstrously powerful augmentation to the Transformer recipe, and I'm lowkey seething that it's not had industry adoption yet. GLM switched to DSA in months. If you're doing new pretraining, why not test Canon too?

Extremely important work:

Erik Brynjolfsson@erikbryn
The @nytimes piece today by @ByrneEdsal13590 highlights a concern I share: “If we stay on the current path, the risk of extreme concentration — both economic and political — is very real.” In work with @zhitzig, we ask why AI may shift the balance between dispersed knowledge and centralized control.

I wish there was a high quality version of this video available. I found it moving, it really has a strong "we are trying to do something as a nation" energy. Can’t think of similar things in France.
