Andreesen is the worst kind of libertarian, the one who believes only he should be exempt from the rules
If the president personally banned his company's newest product with 0 warning, he'd throw the biggest hissy fit in history, but he cheers it on when it happens to others

Marc Andreesen said that Biden’s requirement that frontier AI developers tell the government about their safety practices was an existential threat to US AI, but he thinks global export controls on US AI models is “based” if they’re against people he hates/missed the series A of

I'm tempted to aggressively short SpaceX.
... But the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent.

A Moral Line: "A letter signed by hundreds of clergy and faith leaders across traditions is being hand-delivered to every U.S. Senate office, calling on senators to strip the "Save Our Bacon" amendment from the Farm Bill." (via @FarmForward) #RescueBacon farmforward.com/news/a-moral…

At a gut level, I am skeptical that the effect of phones on fertility would show up so fast and so distinctly. Otherwise, this thread is a perfect example of thoughtfully engaging with criticisms and comments!
Wow, I didn't expect our paper on iPhones and fertility to generate this much buzz—thanks for all the feedback! Rather than scattershot replies, here's a compilation of thoughts and new robustness checks. 🧵1/15

Writing a style guide for Claude. Even when it writes about the annoying "Claudisms" it should avoid, it is using "load-bearing"...

it’s a lovely gesture, but you really didn’t have to do this while this city is being terrorized by a gigantic frenchman in the finals
The Patrouille de France flying over the Statue of Liberty today. What a symbol. 250 years of shared history.

This is being used to ridicule pre-registration but it's doing exactly what it's supposed to:
1. Tells us the file drawer of unreported tests, which we would not know otherwise.
2. Enables journals to make their own decisions about what needs to be reported.
Important to keep in mind that even in what is arguably the most rigorous part of social science -- econ studies with preregistration -- the papers hide most of hypotheses tested

Nauseating read. So this is who "conservatives" think young men should look up to? Pimps and rapists?
And of course people in Trump's orbit helped them escape justice.

Lol Gino is so cooked.
Turns out fabricating data is harder when people have a copy of all the files on your computer.

Hilarious. This company is selling "transdermal nutrition support", better known as "placebo stickers" or "emotional support band-aids".
No, lactase enzyme can't be absorbed through the skin and make their way to the guts.

And if you're putting your papers on your website, do it so that LLMs can read them! Tutorial here:

Better idea: end paywalls for science. In economics SSRN is usually a good substitute. Or prof's websites.

"AI Mode" in Google is constantly hallucinating plausible-sounding facts about scientific papers. I guess this is a consequence of the paper being paywalled, but this is bad for knowledge dissemination.
Google, please fix this. Don't offer AI Mode for paywalled papers.
