Politicians and activists claim social media is turning us into zombies, but new technologies have been greeted with skepticism since the dawn of time https://t.co/Or3TBdcdUa via @reason

Exactly. Government run schools do not have First Amendment rights because they're our employees, not our bosses. It's legitimate--even necessary--to exclude B.S. from the curriculum, including the racist B.S. known as CRT.

The idea of taxing unrealized capital gains is so perplexing, so completely ridiculous, that it's hard to imagine anyone who knows anything about finance could possibly mean it seriously.

Got the @LinkedIn alert like many others — my “prohibited content” will not be shown in China. I have a case number. Could be many things — from this year’s piece about Uyghurs in exile, to my essay on democracy.

Today in 1828 Schubert played his new piano sonata in B-flat, which he had completed only the previous day. In less than two months he would be dead

The great Paul Badura-Skoda died exactly two years ago - here he is playing Schubert's D960 sonata

#Debtceiling high enough; $ receipts will cover interest obligations, no default risk. No other institutions restrain gov't. This is it. Not enough for Mitch to say, "D's must raise limit themselves., @GOP should oppose event that, & start CUTS & growth https://t.co/Sx0LGsTrYJ

A federal judge in Kentucky just ruled that ARPA's limitation on state tax cuts is unduly coercive, creating an unconstitutional condition -- something the Tax Foundation has pointed out. In fact, the Tax Foundation is even cited in the judge's opinion.

One week left. I still have no inside info, but given the hostile regulatory environment in DC right now, it will be mildly surprising if we don't see at least some noteworthy crypto enforcement activity from SEC or CFTC before October. I have my guesses (but who knows).

[Jake Chervinsky @jchervinsky]

I suspect the SEC's goal isn't to "bring DeFi within a public policy framework" since it hasn't made any effort to develop such a framework at all. Just words & enforcement activity.

Rather, the true goal seems to be crushing the market, as the SEC is credited for doing in 2018.
