Kalshi is a prediction market. Their vision is to literally apply sports betting to everything, remaking the world and our lives into a casino of speculation. This is a fundamentally dehumanizing and degenerate view of society. It must be stopped at all costs.
Tarek Mansour, CEO of Kalshi, recently stated that “the long-term vision is to financialize everything and create a tradable asset out of any difference in opinion.” People involved in such things should be dispossessed and ostracised, not celebrated as progressive icons.

1/ Hi, my name is Isaac Martinez. I am a PhD student in Economics at the LSE, and I wanted to share something personal. On July 6, 2025, I suffered a stroke while I was finishing my PhD. It was completely unexpected and changed my life. #EconTwitter #EconJobMarket

Ο Ανδρέας Τεττέη, που γεννήθηκε και μεγάλωσε στην Ελλάδα από γονείς με καταγωγή από τη Γκάνα, δίνει ασίστ στον Κωνσταντίνο Καρέτσα, που γεννήθηκε και μεγάλωσε στο Βέλγιο από Έλληνες γονείς. Άραγε, πίσω από αυτό το γκολ πόσες ιστορίες ανθρώπων να κρύβονται; (Γ. Μπαντής, ΠΣΑΠΠ)

There is *so much* variation even across Europe on which immigrants come in and how their children do. Figure (Boustan et al) shows rank gap vs. native-born for immigrants and their children. One of the richest graphs around. What is going on here? 1/

This is just glorification of aggregated information - why read a book when you can read the executive summary? This won't let you grasp the chronological forces or the personal vs social context of the commentary (in this case of WoN) - which requires putting your brain in use
Spending an hour asking ChatGPT about Adam Smith generally teaches you 3x as much as spending an hour reading Wealth of Nations. The undergrads are using AI because it's just a better, more efficient way to learn things

Re: "walkable cities" and "15 minute cities", there's a quote I saw some time back that said something like "if you live in a 15 minute city, but your batista can't afford to live closer than 30 minutes away, you don't have a city, you have an amusement park."
