👀 Source spotted @NYCMayor & the First Lady enjoying dinner last night at Casa Susanna in Leeds, NY as part of their weeklong escape from the Big Apple.

@loud_socialist Good points, but leaving other things aside, the question remains why a freeze? Why not at least try and have the rents keep up with inflation? Why not a 5% decrease then? What is the “right” price is the problem with every price control. I think it’s a fair question to ask, no?
@JerusalemDemsas@MattBruenig@KelseyTuoc Bruenig's take seems very dismissive and unnecessarily aggressive but I found this little quip particularly dishonest.

In only two years, ChatGPT has unraveled the entire academic project.
Just two months after OpenAI launched ChatGPT in January 2023, a survey of 1,000 college students found that nearly 90 percent of them had used the chatbot to help with homework assignments.

(That wasn’t an anomaly: Traffic dipped again over the summer in 2024.)
