Interesting. If other Govt’s respond similarly, some of the ‘AI replaces the whole workforce’ story gets stymied. And if the lower staff cost benefits go, does that hurt the uptake timetable?

theguardian.com/world/2026/may… Apparently China made it illegal to replace a worker with AI for purely cost cutting purposes.

It should be compulsory for every substack, course selling, engagement bait loser throwing snark to post their account balance, rounded to the nearest million To quote the great @systematicls “huge L to the guy collecting management fees for the past decade on a yard of AUM, says the wage cagey as he steps into a full day of soul sucking work”

Surprising Benn was always talking about risk management, hedging against the unknown, not taking big directional bets The only way to lose 30% that quickly would be if he abandoned his core principles he's been preaching I hope we find out what ultimately caused the damage

KOSPI and Nikkei coming off looking quite similar to last week... Wonder how much it would take for ppl to look around and decide to really take some off the table after this run! -3% and you probably start to get some nervous PM's?

Don't know how I survived without a daily email from somebody way smarter than me, using AI to do maths I can't understand. Feels like being back in school, and accidentally walking into advanced calculus, instead of P.E. where my stupid ass belonged.

@mrjoshbest Helping an age cohort by delineating policy by age cohort… that’s so crazy it just might work.

The U.S. military is considering re-naming the war with Iran “Operation Sledgehammer” if the current ceasefire collapses and war resumes -NBC The working theory is that it would restart the 60-day War Powers countdown.

Doctors say that fluoride helps build strong teeth. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and takes raccoon penises home for “further study” says it causes autism. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.
