Subscribe to Jerry Z. Muller https://t.co/ifWUjeRfHO I’m really looking forward to reading @jerryzmuller’s thoughts on Substack. His book The Tyranny of Metrics was fantastic. And, apparently, he influenced @JonHaidt. Good times.

Hard to be self-abasing and self-important in the same post, but Peter Beinart manages the trick.
By speaking earlier this week at Tel Aviv University, I made a serious mistake. In the past, when formulating my views about Israel-Palestine, I’ve sought out Palestinian friends and interlocutors and listened carefully to their views. In this case, I did not. I really wanted
