this chart should be the death knell for the 2010s tech left whose theology compelled them to argue that Uber was some sort of labor law arbitrage that created no productivity benefits. the truth is that it created a far larger market than taxis ever had. the industrialists win

So it turns out those old fashioned often religious based morals we had as a load bearing beam for society around men and women and sex might have been there for a reason.

you can either look at a mortgage as a bank letting you long real estate against a perpetual devaluing dollar for a carry cost slightly above the risk free rate of return, or you can choose to be ignorant of how money works, if you spiritually have the mind of a medieval peasant

straightforward standard that would resolve all outstanding issues of ambiguous rape would be to simply treat all nonmarital sex as rape by default. this would correctly align incentives with legal practicalities and frankly the only reason to oppose it is rape apologism

Trump is literally inside trading for the benefit of American children and people are still doubting the plan 🤦‍♂️

I will say it again…

Most of our billionaires make apps or move numbers on a screen. Elon deserves respect because he’s actually building. This is what America’s titans of industry should be doing.

SICARIO showed that rightwingers can make high-concept subversive films that convey complex ideas simply.

Emily Blunt's liberal status quo character is made to appear the protagonist in the beginning, but is gradually unveiled as the film's ultimate villain.

It is her legalism and unwillingness to concede that only men of will and violence can suppress a totally corrupted system that is keeping the cartels on life support.

You see stuff like this and you realize that agriculture was probably invented millions of times in prehistory, it's just that in 99.9999% of cases it didn't pass an Impact Assessment by the tribe's mammies

[Libertarian Party NH 🦔 @LPNH]

In New Hampshire we use this interesting thing called data.

So we actually know that every single Republican is more libertarian than every single Democrat. Every single one!

Ted Cruz may suck but he is better than every Democrat.

The tweet below got enormous pushback at the time I posted it, more than 5 years ago. But this prediction is looking obvious by the day now.

Sorry, the Supreme Court says this is just as the Founders intended

Terence Tao gets a tiny taste of what the average American worker went through when we offshored all their factory jobs to China and imported 100M foreigners to take whatever jobs were left, and he immediately decides that all technological progress must cease and Heaven and Earth must move so that he can keep his job.

In fact he’s not even really getting a taste, since even after AI has made him useless, he will still be rich and famous. He will probably never turn to fentanyl or drink himself to death in despair of ever providing for his family.

A good reminder that the “elites” who destroyed this country are the most cowardly and self-centered people to ever exist.

Struggling to explain doomers to your boomers? Just say:

"It's a bunch of Berkeley commies trying to do a power grab."

They will understand completely and immediately.

Donald Trump invented the transformer architecture. You might disagree. You might even have evidence to the contrary. But you have to ask yourself: is this really worth losing my frontier AI research lab over? Donald Trump invented the transformer architecture.

I wonder if Dario can *imagine* being such a Bad Guy in the eyes of a young 150 IQ Chinese engineer with full access to the Web. The cream of the crop of the people he's intent to Save From The CCP saying "Nazi psycho, I'll build open weights AGI just to stop your evil plans!"

[ℏεsam @Hesamation]

Sir, you somehow united the US president, China, Jensen Huang, and half the AI industry against us.

you achieved GLOBAL COORDINATION but AGAINST pacing.
