I just like to follow people, sometimes I will tweet links to articles that I enjoyed reading.

Inflation dropping modestly in June is a sign of relatively normal month over month changes. It takes a full 12 months for new developments to fully affect a year-over-year statistic like inflation.

Watch for July! "Normal" for that month will mean a big drop to ~2.2%.

Thrilled that my paper on an Alberta Pension Plan was accepted for publication in Canadian Public Policy! 🥳

While it will take time to appear in the journal (March issue), the final version is here: https://t.co/ay4g832Vgt #ableg #cdnecon 🧵 🤓

@VoiceOfFranky While it's true that your incorrect statements are incorrect and your correct statement is correct this does seem to align really well with the type of misinformation that right leaning voters are keen to believe. I suspect you'd find a different result with different questions.

Ever wanted to mindwipe an LLM?

Our method, LEAst-squares Concept Erasure (LEACE), provably erases all linearly-encoded information about a concept from neural net activations. It does so surgically, inflicting minimal damage to other concepts. 🧵

@ThothCatalog @ConversationUK I see, it seems like from the Reuters article the difficulty of calculating R0 given the current heterogeneity of immunity means it's practically impossible. Thank you for the article!

My latest, on the endless, immovable, and above all unnecessary crisis in health care. It’s not that we don’t know what to do — health policy wonks are broadly agreed on the sorts of reforms needed. We just don’t know how to get it done.

@ThothCatalog For me the first day I had symptoms. My partner didn't test positive till the second day of symptoms.

[Jaryd Hunter @jarydhunter]

@ThothCatalog That's true! That looks like a promising compromise.

@ThothCatalog I agree with most of these for solving COVID in isolation, but the first solution higher exchange of air from indoor with outdoor runs completely opposite to making home climate control more energy efficient. I don't know how to balance those two priorities. Such complexity :S

[Jaryd Hunter @jarydhunter]

@2closetocall If personality drives voters and ford has personality, why was the turnout so low? One of those two assumptions probably isn't correct.

Got it on the bonus guess, what an emotional rollercoaster!

@ThothCatalog I should have known that, I did see the assassins musical.

@ThothCatalog Where are those from? Hilarious

@ThothCatalog No way, there is definitely a genetic predisposition to breathability standards happening here. We need a GWAS to better examine the genetic causes

Powerful and meaningful speech
