I like to tweet this every six months or so. Just to creep people out. And so younger people can learn a little history<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new paper by the NBER on the McKinley tariffs<\/a> of the late 1890s claims that the US economy did not benefit from the tariffs, mainly because they “may have reduced labor productivity in manufacturing.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s easier said than done. During development of the Vision Pro, executives aspired for the device<\/a> to eventually become an Apple Watch-sized hit \u2014 something that now seems unlikely. But perhaps a broader line of Vision wearable products<\/a> (including things like smart glasses, augmented reality spectacles and iPhone-connected head-worn displays) could become a $25 billion business<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How is it helping users to suggest a location that is different to what<\/a> they search for?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An innovation-forward culture<\/a> may feel like a huge acceleration today, but it\u2019s actually a return to the moral norm of Americans being and feeling comfortable, competent, and confident taking charge of their tools and toolmaking.<\/p>\n\n\n

The radical notion of mixing and matching culinary traditions spread<\/A>. By 2003, the quietly brilliant chef Tyson Cole, of Austin\u2019s Uchi, was wowing customers with dishes you\u2019d never see at old-school Japanese sushi bars. Less than a decade later, in 2012, the Houston restaurant scene got the star it deserved when irrepressible, bear-hugging chef Chris Shepherd opened Underbelly, where he merged cuisines from around the world. Side by side on one menu you could find Korean-style braised goat and Appalachian vinegar pie.<\/p>\n

Slightly more than 1 in every 5 men ages 65 to 74 live alone, according to 2022 Census Bureau data. That rises to nearly 1 in 4 for those 75 or older. In 2000, only 1 in 6 older men lived by themselves. It\u2019s difficult to find information about this group \u2013 which is dwarfed by the number of women who live alone \u2013 because it hasn\u2019t been studied in depth. But psychologists and psychiatrists say they can be quite vulnerable. Research shows that men tend to have fewer friends than women and be less inclined to make new friends<\/a>. Often, they\u2019re reluctant to ask for help. Add in the decline of civic institutions where men used to congregate \u2013 think of the Elks or the Shriners \u2013 and older men\u2019s reduced ability to participate in athletic activities, and the result is a lack of stimulation and the loss of a sense of belonging. Of all age groups in the United States, men over age 75 have the highest suicide rate, by far.<\/p>\n\n\n

We are a remote company. Everything is going well. No plans to be in person, but I\u2019d say we can do a better job at communicating<\/a>. Any tips or articles to read?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is why I\u2019m so fascinated by the early Christians<\/a>. They played the doomed COOPERATE-BOT strategy and took over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On Haul, Amazon\u2019s new rival to Temu and Shein, nothing costs more than $20<\/a> and items typically arrive in one to two weeks \u2014 not days \u2014 as they ship from overseas directly to US customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Luddite attitudes<\/a> to new technology and an obsession with old industries are imperilling German prosperity<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What an odd thing<\/a> for her to say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There has been a residency cap<\/a> since 1997<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three, they all share a reputation<\/a> from the mainstream media, bicoastal elite, or administrative state guardians as a little \u201cout there\u201d or even \u201ccrazy\u201d and \u201cnuts\u201d, whether RFK, Tulsi Gabbard, or Pete Hegseth. So, their opponents rightly fear they are immune from mainstream media disparagements, the usually leftwing generated hoaxes, and beltway tsk-tsk scorn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CEO of Palantir, $PLTR, Alex Karp: \u201cYou are sitting at your elite school pretending<\/a> that because you watched TikTok twice and got an A+ on some crazy paper, because your professor couldn\u2019t get a job anywhere else, that you actually understand the world.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The DNC needs an organizer who gets people<\/a>. Not someone who sends fish heads in the mail<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the full talk from @Gwynne_Shotwell<\/a> at the Baron Capitol conference from yesterday!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf our whole power projection platform is aircraft carriers, and if 15 hypersonic missiles can take out our ten aircraft carriers<\/a> in the first 20 minutes of a conflict, what does that look like?\u201d he said on The Shawn Ryan Show<\/em>, hosted by the former United States navy seal and CIA contractor. Similar questions are being asked about the UK\u2019s two \u00a36.2 billion aircraft carriers, HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales<\/a>, commissioned into the Royal Navy in 2017 and 2019 respectively.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While they waited for city agencies to inspect and approve their lodging, among other bureaucratic hurdles, they felt migrants \u201cwere getting fast-tracked to shelters<\/a>, they were getting cash, they were getting debit cards.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
