Oh no! The only author I am aware of to have combined Keats & the battle of Agincourt in one novel; to have imagined a galaxy patrolled by Jesuit space captains; & to have devised, in Ilium & Olympos, the best ever solution to updating the Olympian gods.

nobody in Europe is talking about the polish housing supply miracle.

The median household in polish cities (!) now only spends 13% of their income on housing.

They build about 200k units a year for a 36 million people country.

Don't know whether it's impressive or mad that the Americans, unlike the Soviets, let their gerontocrats go on TV https://t.co/HgvzNSrobL

Great article on densification in Houston. Removing restrictions and respecting property rights seems to have worked pretty well.

Preparing for class and just learned that the "pink tax" seems to be a myth. Identical (or nearly identical) goods marketed to women are, if anything, slightly cheaper on average than when marketed to men--contrary to this graphic and many more like it.

Bravo @M6 pour ce reportage sur vos «étonnants voisins Suisses». La prochaine fois que vous venez visiter le zoo, on vous met volontiers un guide à disposition - avec ou sans fusil sur l'épaule.

Psst, me and @Bouletcorp have spent the last few years on a children's epic. Announcement in a few weeks :D

Tribe and Harvard thank the President for taxing workers to pay their student's bills so Tribe and Harvard can keep charging exorbitant rates.

Laugh or cry. What a joke.

Taxi drivers attack Uber drivers and Uber is the bad guy? Ridiculous. Travis Kalanick is one of the most important entrepreneurs of the era because he fought the rent-seekers and won.

[Students For Liberty @sfliberty]

That's definitely a tough one.

All the tweets decrying the return to Lochner seem not to realize that Lochner and Roe are in the same line of 14th amendement, substantive due process, unenumerated rights cases!

If anything, Lochner implies Roe.

@VincentArlettaz Ta lecture est à mon avis erronée: le fait de stipuler qu'un acte n'est pas protégé par une constitution ne rend pas cet acte illégal... L'avortement en Suisse n'est lui non plus pas protégé constitutionnellement sauf erreur.

It’s somehow symbolic of our age that Twitter has banned Donald Trump but not Vladimir Putin (@KremlinRussia_E). What were the grounds for banning Trump, again? Something about “the risk of further incitement of violence”?
