I’m convinced that anyone who says Thinking Fast and Slow is a good book is just trying to masquerade as erudite and sophisticated

Nothing against Kahneman, but that brick is literally 500 pages of word vomit that could’ve been said in two paragraphs

Has anyone figured out what Astronomer actually does yet?

@hasan_sukkar_ Massive congrats! Feels like the other day, walking back from a party hearing about how you’re thinking of starting up

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but:

My first product made almost $0
2nd product, hardly any sales
3rd product, $10
...
15th product, acquired for $8m

Success comes with TONS of experiments

Most people quit too early.

@HarryStebbings Do you play? I organise a regular session in Shoreditch.

[Owen Jones @owenjonesjourno]

Joe Biden is a decent man if you think arming a genocide makes someone decent.

Biden has facilitated one of the most obscene crimes of our age.

Tens of thousands of Palestinians, many of them kids: much of that blood stains his hands, too.

Voted Labour all my life 🥀

Voted for Emily Thornberry three times.

Then she went on national TV and legitimised war crimes.

Unlike Labour, the Greens back investment, tax justice, public ownership, workers’ rights and drastic action on climate.

So, proud to vote Green 💚

Muitos pediram para que eu ignorasse, outros tantos disseram que minha luta era em vão e que eu deveria apenas "jogar futebol".

Mas, como sempre disse, não sou vítima de racismo. Eu sou algoz de racistas. Essa primeira condenação penal da história da Espanha não é por mim. É por todos os pretos.

Que os outros racistas tenham medo, vergonha e se escondam nas sombras. Caso contrário, estarei aqui para cobrar. Obrigado a La Liga e ao Real Madrid por ajudarem nessa condenação histórica. Vem mais por aí… 🙏🏾✊🏿

Please don’t undermine my credentials @Keir_Starmer
I came from a family with a violent father and spent part of my childhood on benefits. I’m now a visiting professor and teach at LSE. Public services really helped me, and I had to work so hard to get to this point in my life.

[Edward Snowden @Snowden]

Everyone in the world needs to see this.

Note that this footage permits no room for "it was a mistake," showing repeated, specifically-targeted strikes on the unarmed and even wounded. The sort of behavior the ICJ explicitly forbid in the genocide ruling against Israel.

Hope you’re doing your own thing & not anyone else’s. Have a great day 👊

If Shamima Begum looked like this, and had been trafficked by ISIS for sexual exploitation as a child, does anyone honestly believe she would have received the same treatment?

[The Independent @Independent]
