I donโ€™t agree with many of his policies and perspectives, but @VivekGRamaswamy has come incredibly far in his understanding of crypto over the past 6 months. Contrast it to his first crypto podcast with @real_vijay where they were talking about the very basics of crypto.

My working hypothesis is that the banks who survived the GFC had the head of risk management reporting to the CEO and the others had them reporting to the head of sales. Sometimes the basics matter.

๐Ÿงต40/ฮฉ I'm reasonably certain I saw SBF fighting back tears as he said it. At the very least he started blinking furiously in the way one does when one is fighting back tears. As much as I think he needs to burn for his crimes it was a reminder that the whole thing is a tragedy.

I sympathise with the sentiment but an uncharitable reading of the original quote is that the empirical turn in economics has validated more the sociology approach than the Beckerian approach.

I agree and I regard it as a sad development overall. Sometimes it feels lonely to be a Becker fanboy. I still think human capital and the household production approach in particular has a lot to offer e.g. re behavioral economics. (This is from @tylercowen's new generative book)

So, not the most important thing in the world right now but does the Gary Wang testimony mean that the FTX autoliquidation engine was written in python? That seems suboptimal โ€ฆ https://t.co/LnYIdDCOok

I'm on the job market and can't let myself get distracted by dumb open source ideas, but it would be really cool to have an easy way in ggplot to put the legend like this and the y-axis label like this. NBER graphs always are ๐Ÿ‘จ๐Ÿผโ€๐Ÿณ๐ŸคŒ๐Ÿผ

As someone who appreciates Matt Levine both concretely in the abstract, there could be a hundred other authors with this general lens on the world applied to various fields and I would read as many as I could find hours in the day for.

These words from @matt_levine struck me. And is compelling me to write about structures and (the specifics of) complex systems more.
