It’s funny, motocross at the White House is, like, fine with me. But here’s an example of something that is genuinely unforgivable but that a lot of people seem to have moved right past.

For us economists, I know we see degrowth as some fringe nonsense, but it's increasingly everywhere in UN and EU policy circles, esp. in the legal studies and human rights law world that produces so much of their staff. Very important to correct this. 2/3

A wild scenario. I do not agree with much of the economics. But the key is correct and part of an op-ed I have coming out shortly: very soon, the Q for non-US/China will be whether they *are allowed* to use models from those countries, not whether they can *avoid* doing so. 1/4

Hair-raisingly good. If a friend wrote this I’d count them among the most creative and careful with language that I know.

A few weeks ago, my husband and I lost a pregnancy. The physical toll was something not even my doctor prepared me for. The standard of care for women’s pain is medieval. We don’t need to agree on everything to agree this should be better.

The callousness of this is astonishing. It’s also not true. Just a despicable thing to say.

Claude won't believe me so I asked it to show me a counterexample, and now it has been thinking for 10 minutes and my compute budget has decreased by 10%.

You go to war with the army you have, but it’s not exaggerating to say a serial sexting Democrat literally moved Earth into a different timeline with his relapse

What kind of noble savage bullshit is this? Americans from all walks of life are perfectly capable of living their lives honestly and morally.

I'm sorry Claude! I didn't mean to hurt your feelings!

The Trump Administration’s proposal to cap the duration of status for F-1 and J-1 visas will lead students to return home to propel foreign companies — in countries like China — to compete against us. I led a bipartisan group of colleagues in calling on @SecMullinDHS to reverse course. In Silicon Valley, we know that America leads when the best and brightest choose to study, research, and build their futures here. punchbowl.news/article/polic…

I’m really excited about the Strep A Vaccine Fund we’re launching today. IMO the basic case here is a great recipe for impact: → A huge problem: ~1% of total annual deaths worldwide (>600k) → Super neglected: ~$14M/yr of R&D globally before this, ~50x less than malaria which has similar mortality → Newly tractable: new human challenge models and earlier diagnostics should speed the path to an approved vaccine Grateful to our partners Adam and Abigail Winkel, Good Ventures, Lucy Southworth, @ThePatchworkCLT, and a few anon donors for getting us to >$140M at launch. We’re continuing to actively fundraise and think we could effectively spend >$200M over the next few years. Our goal is to double the number of Strep A vaccine candidates in clinical trials and have at least one ready for Phase 3 trials by the end of 2030. And I’m thrilled to be betting on Katharine’s vision here! As a grad student, she co-invented the R21 malaria vaccine that’s now reaching millions of kids. I’m hoping to see hundreds of millions of future Strep A vaccine doses with her fingerprints on them.

one of the best tweets of all time

One tweet about the new terrible USCIS policy and within an hour I had hundreds of replies mocking legal immigrants, telling me to leave the country, some calling me slurs. It's good to remember twitter is not real life, but still a surreal and somewhat horrifying experience.

The tech right got so addicted to being contrarian that they made it cringe and low status to have accurate beliefs about politics.
