God is love

“Love without truth is sentimentality; it supports and affirms us but keeps us in denial about our flaws. Truth without love is harshness; it gives us information but in such a way that we cannot really hear it.” - @timkellernyc

Had to get the 🐐 @PAOnTheMic on the call for the Maui TD to nephew!

@BenGoessling Ben, hope you’ve been well. Miss seeing you in pregame FaceTimes w/PA. Based on this insight, wouldn’t it validate frustration w/KOC expecting McCarthy to do in his first 8 starts what a vet like Kirk struggled to adjust to after years of play? Instead of playing to his strengths

@YouTubeTV @Disney you guys are a masterclass on how to ruin TV. Started from $40/month back to satellite pricing and constant headaches.

Win or lose, always a pleasure to catch up with my man @PAOnTheMic when he’s in town! Being from LA, I’ve been spoiled with some of the 🎙️ 🐐’s like Chick Hearn & Vin Scully. The @Vikings are lucky to have another all-time great. #skol

4. Question Selection > Problem Solving

"It's harder to come up with a really good conjecture than it is to solve it."

Takeaway: Focus on asking the right questions, not just finding answers.

The person who identifies the breakthrough question often matters more than who solves it.

@alec_lewis @AlecLewisShow What is the wildest/boldest prediction for the rest of the off season that actually has a chance of happening?

Friedberg: California Created an Insurance Crisis by Artificially Inflating Home Prices

@friedberg broke it down on episode 210:

-- the frequency of loss is INCREASING for homes in climate-sensitive zones (areas with wildfires, hurricanes, tornadoes, etc.)

-- this includes parts of los angeles susceptible to wildfires

-- in a free market, the cost of insurance would rise with the increased risk of loss

-- however, california makes it nearly impossible for home insurance providers to increase rates

-- this artificially inflates home prices, due to the massively subsidized insurance costs

" They're driving real estate value up because they're not allowing the cost of insurance of that real estate to naturally float."

" And so by driving real estate values up, the economy looks good, they make property taxes, income comes in."

-- but, major insurance providers like state farm pulled out of certain at-risk areas in the state

-- for example, state farm canceled ~1600 policies in pacific palisades last summer

-- californians living in at-risk areas are now relying on the state's insurance program (the "fair plan") in record numbers

-- according to friedberg, the fair plan has ~$220M of capital with ~$5B of reinsurance

-- after this string of wildfires, the program has ~$6B of exposure in the pacific palisades alone, and could have $24B+ in total losses

-- so, california's state insurance plan is effectively bankrupt, and will need a bailout

" At the end of the day, the bill is going to come due."

"And at some point, taxpayers are going to look at the fact that they're paying some percentage of their income to support someone else's home value, and they're going to say 'Enough is enough.'"
