“too good to be true” Extremely proud to be a part of this organization, working to increase accessibility to energy efficient solutions. I’ll admit some bias, but the video is beautiful and well worth the watch. **chopping onions warning**

Happy to support this effort from the brilliant @KaseyKlimes and others. A compelling and splashy launch, indeed!
For two years, @OshanJarow and I (along with many other talented collaborators) have dedicated our nights and weekends to building a new kind of knowledge-base for innovative economic ideas. Today we're very excited to share that the Library of Economic Possibility is here.

Data analysts take note. The overwhelming success of deep learning proves that with the right algorithm, a pre-cleaned data set and as little as 20 million dollars worth of compute, anything is possible.

From Tony To of #othellosquareproject, on impact investors, they say “We want market-rate returns and high impact. So who pays for the impact? The community pays for the impact.” Stumbled upon a gem from @urbaninstitute on #OpportunityZones today. #LiveAtUrban

"Measuring what we actually care about — rather than what’s easily measured — is fiendishly difficult and often impossible." This is why we needs to be honest about goals, how to reach them, the data we have, and how we know we achieved our outcomes.
