@MuBad2000 @abensbur23908 @rothbardDK @skov_chr Der er en, som ikke løber for stereotyperne. Respekt!

@abensbur23908 @rothbardDK @skov_chr Hvis du tør vise mig, hvor “hjem” er face-to-face, så skal jeg nok. Skriv din adresse, så vi kan aftale nærmere ❤️

Naiviteten kender ingen grænser. Forestiller @skov_chr sig i ramme alvor, at tørklædeklædte muslimske piger møder op til dansk folkefest i kjole og danser med rød-hvide klappepølser? Mon ikke det snarere vil gå som med den traditionsrige gallafest på ghetto-gymnasier:

@fsfarimani @ConnorMEwing Well for the most part but google scholar doesnt have everything ever written so you would get false positives.

@ConnorMEwing What is a made-up citation? Is it like citing an irrelevant reference, or a complete hallucinated one? The latter is actually very easy to check. Like it should be pretty easy to write a Python script or something to check .bib files against Google Scholar, right?

A modest proposal: If you submit a manuscript with a made-up citation—not a bungled or misspelled reference—you receive a 5-year ban on having your work reviewed at that journal.

@RichardHanania Thats a great idea, IQ test to enter a country. Although 120 is probably better cutoff.

How you know the race and IQ people are just bigots: if you take IQ seriously, your main cause should be getting everyone on earth with a 110 IQ or higher into your country. This would be the only logical position one can hold. But that's not what these people support!

@jtoomim @cremieuxrecueil Last thing i will say: I dont accept the GHG equivalent framework I think its stupid thats why we are having this conversation. Because the only thing thats important to me and the human race in the real long term is the thermal equilibrium. Treat animals better i agree.

@esben_baasch @cremieuxrecueil I care about *all* terms, and cows are worse than poultry and pork in all of them. Also, if you look up the peer-reviewed literature on the GHG footprint of factory farming ("finishing" in industry parlance) vs entirely grass-fed methods, you might be surprised by what you find.

Another example of the fact that, unless you're willing to make life unbearable, reducing consumption is not the solution to climate change.

@jtoomim @cremieuxrecueil Alot of cow feed (depending one where you are) is litterally grass that cant be fed to other animals often places where you grow other crops economically. Should we stop feeding cows soy yes i agree. Also limit grains too much and they get upset stomachs.

@esben_baasch @cremieuxrecueil But methane is only 60% of the total GHG contribution of cows. Cows are inefficient because they take 30 kg of feed to produce 1 kg of cow. Chicken take about 4 kg of feed to produce 1 kg of chicken. So even land use changes are worse for cows than chickens.

@jtoomim @cremieuxrecueil I guess it depends whether you care more about short term, as in out life time, changes to the climate or about the long term impact. Also factory farming atleast when not necessary is bad for the animals. But a lot of especially beef production isn't factory farming.

@esben_baasch @cremieuxrecueil Your "natural carbon cycle" statement is just a cop-out so that you don't have to bother to actually think or do math. And it's wrong. Factory farming is not the natural carbon cycle. Feedlots are unnatural. Manure ponds are unnatural. And C in CH4 is different from C in CO2.

@jtoomim @cremieuxrecueil Also you own chart agrees with me. Enteric is litterally more than half. Then you add manure. You have no idea what you are talking about.

@esben_baasch @cremieuxrecueil lpelc.org/a-national-ass…

@jtoomim @cremieuxrecueil Beef is not an issue either. It doesnt change the climate long term since part of the normal carbon cycle. Only burning things you dig up does.

@cremieuxrecueil Just eat chicken or pork instead? It's only beef that has this issue.

@dexarok @ThePrismaticSun @AkkadSecretary This because of regulation lol

@ThePrismaticSun @AkkadSecretary No. Actually this is what you get when you consider REGULATION a dirty word. Enjoy your freedom.

I hate to be a bad guest. But I managed to get my hands on a US bank account now, and holy shit is the American banking not only horrible to it's own people. (No interest, savings account is useless, $1500 minimum in account or fees for having an account, 'Wire fees', charging businesses constant fees etc) But it's also weirdly out of date, Having to call the bank constantly bec the app doesn't have the ability to solve issues easily, the apps UI's look awful and don't allow you to build wealth easily, they still ask for your pin on the phone!? This can't all be blamed on the Patriot act and 08, this level of inefficiency by the mediators of money are clearly acting as more of a harm to commerce then facilitators. (Their business model seems based on annoying customers into paying bullshit fees) But Americans seem to just put up with it? why?

@HansenDamsgaard @MortenStostad tradingeconomics.com/norway/governm…

@MortenStostad Did the total tax revenue grow or only the wealth tax revenue?

The Norwegian example is illustrative. In the last few years, our wealth tax received massive media attention, described by media outlets as leading to an "exodus" of the wealthy. But only ~1.7% of the ultra-wealthy actually left. Tax revenue boomed

@MortenStostad I mean yes wealth tax receipts increase but overall they topped in 2022. Which is kind of the point. tradingeconomics.com/norway/governm… You would need to make a real analysis to find the effect of the wealth tax and it would be hard to filter all the noise.

@AutismCapital Beautiful!

@LoeveTristan @MonsierHulot @SofieMosgaard Hvor det igen så går til spild og korruption

@MonsierHulot @SofieMosgaard Enig, men udviklingsbistand behøver ikke at få direkte til landet, man kan også holde det til NGOer

Vores udviklingsbistand et meget den diplomatiske version af at betale en formue for en sabbatårsrejse, hvor man taget selfies med afrikanske børn og lærer dem en smule engelsk. Det er primært effektivt for vores egen gode samvittighed #dkpol

Another soft inflation report, with the exception of one outlier, and again very close to our nowcasts on headline inflation (within 1bp). Overall, this should be seen as further confirmation that inflation is not an immediate worry here. The composition of the CPI print was slightly odd (and not particularly well aligned with our sub category data), but in any case it was another net soft surprise. Headline came in around 1bp above our forecast, but core was around 12bp firmer, driven by a huge increase in transportation services that we simply cannot reconcile with anything we see in the underlying data. There are some incredibly strange moves in the parking and vehicle registration fees, something we have never seen anything close to before, and these are showing up under transportation services. We will investigate further, but as it stands, it looks off (see chart below). At this point, roughly 70% of CPI reports have been softer than consensus since Liberation Day. Amusing, and as I wrote yesterday, it is becoming a theme. We are increasingly convinced that inflation forecasting has become a politicized arena within banks, given how stubbornly they have clung to the wrong bias throughout this period. We don't have such a bias at Nowcast IQ - we just let the numbers speak!

@luispadillah @LastCoinStandng @NXT4EU Oh yes famous free market UK what year is it 1910?

@LastCoinStandng @NXT4EU And how is the "free market" working for the now tiny UK facing every global shark and bloc?

Did you guys ever hear what plans the Far-Right has after disbanding the EU? Literally zero plans. Never heard anything that would come close to solving anything. It's just a buzzword "We need to disband the EU, just trust me bro it will solve everything"

@TocquevilleJnr @PeterMcCormack You stop money creation. Its not hard.

@PeterMcCormack How do you ‘end inflation’ when those with the power, means and desire to keep raising prices are … (drumroll…) “The Rich” 🤦🏽‍♂️

Zack Polanski and Gary Economics want a wealth tax. The most effective tax on the rich is ending inflation. It will also do more for the poor than welfare.
