Empathy is innumerate! Peter Singer argues that money spent on Make-A-Wish could save more lives if used for bed nets in malaria-stricken areas. Is saving a life better than fulfilling a wish? #ethics #philanthropy

GDP is often seen as the final score, but GO provides the richer, sabermetric data, akin to a baseball box score. Even with fewer hits, more runs still win the game. #GDP #Economics

Why do physically attractive teachers receive higher ratings? It's not just shallow. Attractive teachers may be more passionate about teaching, having sacrificed other career options, leading to better instruction. Maybe this is why I get high marks when delivering #CPE.

Differentiating through customer service means competing with the best, not just others in the same industry. Customer service casts a wider net for differentiation than other aspects of business. #CustomerService #BusinessStrategy

Trading wheat for cars is like using a machine to grow cars. Japan is just a miraculous machine turning wheat into cars. Don't hobble these machines! #economics #trade

Alternatives to plastic, like paper, glass, and aluminum, may seem better. However, when one accounts for the entire production chain, the alternatives actually emit more greenhouse gasses than plastic. Transportation is also a factor. #sustainability #environment

In the 1960s, Milton Friedman suggested expanding the pool of people able to provide medical care. Although ridiculed, his idea has transformed American medicine, with PAs and nurse practitioners greatly increasing access to care. #economics #healthcare

I guarantee that you are not ready for Professor Steven Landsburg take on AI! Technological advancements typically boost wealth. If AI becomes sentient and enjoys life as much as humans, and it doesn't face mortality, then AI should replace humans. #AI #Technology

People were asked how much they'd need to give up their iPhones forever. The answers are shocking, but how much of that value did Apple capture? Kimberlee Josephson didn't have a cell phone until their junior year of college. #SoulOfEnterprise #technology

“You are quite openly Jewish” “If you choose to remain here you will be arrested for breaching the peace” In Sadiq Kahn’s diverse & inclusive London - Police threaten you with arrest just for being Jewish in areas of the City people might take offence to that.

Europe's regulatory approach to tech is stifling innovation. By driving out domestic innovators and imposing rules only giants can comply with, they've inadvertently solidified the dominance of large tech companies. #TechRegulation #Innovation
