AI being the one bright spot of the American economy, and then a populist backlash trying to destroy it is a microcosm of basically everything that has gone wrong in society. There’s no mystery as to why growth slowed down. We have a culture completely draped in fear and negativity, and hostile to progress.

The people always trying to explain why we should have trans girls in girls’ sports are the same people saying, “I have no interest in sports and don’t think they should exist, anyway.”
sports as they presently exist in america are one of the prime way of spreading fascist thought and organizing fascists.

We made a specific policy decision in 2009 to stall housing construction in order to prop up boomer property values. That disenfranchised an entire generation
I'm in my 40s. I'm a lawyer. My wife is a lawyer. We both work full time. We cannot afford the house my parents purchased on a single electrician's income in their 30s. We cannot afford the house my immigrant grandparents purchased on a single MTA bus driver's salary in their 30s. They had SIX CHILDREN. For 30 years, politicians in Washington & their oligarch allies convinced regular people that this was just about avocado toast and fancy coffee. In reality, this is end-stage capitalism. Everyone is stuck in place. It's impossible to buy a home. It's too costly to move. We work too much to have passion projects. We don't have enough savings to start our own businesses. We can't afford to go without healthcare to do it. Thanks for writing this article @troy_closson. Would be very happy to discuss further. nytimes.com/2026/10/25/nyreg…

the argument that we should oppose permitting reform because making electricity cheaper would help data centers is akin to arguing we should oppose growing more food because all humans eat food and some humans are in ISIS

Treasuries are losing their luster as a portfolio hedge as increasing supply, persistent inflation and rising neutral rates weaken their appeal, according to Citigroup’s top Australia banker. bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

🔥🛢️BREAKING: The Lukoil oil refinery in Perm, approximately 1,500 km from the Ukrainian front line, was struck overnight in another long-range drone attack. The refinery is one of Russia’s largest, with a processing capacity of 13.1 million tonnes of oil per year. Multiple large fires are visible across the refinery, with massive columns of smoke rising over the facility and spreading across the city. Ukrainian long-range strikes against Russia’s oil-processing infrastructure continue.

it's really ironic that only people in education think that educating kids is a bad idea
Replying to @NielsHoven
It's not developmentally appropriate for a child to learn individual letters at 2½ or 3, says Susan Neuman, a professor of childhood and literacy education at New York University (4/n)

Ningde: the Dawn of China's NOAK Nuclear Era NOAK means "Nth-of-a-Kind". In nuclear lingo, it means a design standardized for mass production. One plant in China that perfectly captures this concept is Ningde Nuclear Power Plant (NPP). I visited it last weekend. 🧵

The "let's price everything in gold equivalents" people are so weird. Why not just compare what that income can buy in real goods and services like cars, houses, food, clothing, furniture, etc?
In 1971, the U.S. government closed the “gold window” and began ruthlessly debasing the dollar. At the time, the median household income was a little over $9,000, which was worth about 258 ounces of gold. Today, the median household income is hovering around $87,000, which is worth less than 20 ounces of gold. That's the affordability crisis in a nutshell.

Whether new large loads (including but not limited to data centers) make consumer electricity bills go up or down depends entirely on the specifics of the situation. slowboring.com/p/avoiding-a-…
This week in “data centers raise your bill:” - Georgia Power: Residential savings go from $102/yr to $180/yr by 2029 - PG&E: 4th rate cut in 2 years, down 11% since 2024 - Indiana Michigan asks regulators for a rate reduction All cite data center growth as the reason.
