RT by @lugaricano: John Kelly, the longest-serving White House chief of staff for Donald Trump, rips his former boss:

“What can I add that has not already been said? A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all ‘suckers’ because ‘there is nothing in it for them…

A person that has no idea what America stands for and has no idea what America is all about…

A person who admires autocrats and murderous dictators. A person that has nothing but contempt for our democratic institutions, our Constitution, and the rule of law.

There is nothing more that can be said. God help us.”

RT by @lugaricano: This is quite a slip. Trump confused Nikki Haley with Nancy Pelosi. If Biden did anything like this, Fox would melt down.

These bullies astonishingly plead they are behaving ethically when they hound a "low-status"(in her words) woman out of her job.

RT by @lugaricano: My take: support for AfD builds on flaws in government priorities: low on education, infrastructure and investment. Better to redirect emphasis, try to get the centre right on board, stop culture wars and ideological battles.

RT by @lugaricano: On some days I just can't stop thinking that this whole misery and inhumane tragedy happened because of… nothing.

Nothing was threatening Russia in 2008, 2014 or 2022.

There are literally 0 countries which are ready to attack it.

Perfectly safe. And totally crazy.

RT by @lugaricano: Watch this talk by Markus with hilarious introduction by Monika Piazzesi (who cannot possibly be German with her last name!)

Finance meets macro dynamics. Markus introduces the idea of resilience (vs safety to risk) as an organizing principle to connect a vast literature.

RT by @lugaricano: Congressional Republicans have forced the US to halt aid to Ukraine. This is an entirely optional foreign policy disaster of epic proportions without a clear end in sight.

Ukrainians in the trenches and in their homes will be the first, but not the last, to pay for it.

Moravec's paradox: Simple tasks for humans are the hardest for AI. What's effortless for a child, a dog or a monkey, like recognizing a face, is extremely computationally intensive.
The hard stuff that takes us years (playing chess) is computationally trivial.
Great thread!

Reposting my Saturday night (worst time in the week!) Thread on the non-monetary returns to Collage.
TL;Dr: if you are a College applicant, don't listen to all the ideologues who are trying to make you believe College is not worth it!

The idea that College is not worth it in the US is wrong.
Peter Thiel gives a couple of scholarships and kids have to stop going to College?
Bullshit.
As Gary Becker used to say, the returns to College are everywhere-much higher than just the monetary returns. THREAD
