NEW: America is a rich country. Britain is a poor country with one wealthy region.

People love to compare the UK to Mississippi, but it’s far more informative to look at UK subnationally, too.

London ranks fairly well, the rest of the country does not 👉 ft.com/content/e5c741…

Bigger businesses are often less competent, since they get to relax into monopolistic practices and economies of scale. Yet somehow neoliberals given them more respect.

It's remarkable that, for all of the articles written and words spilled in the NYT about defunding the police, the paper has not done a single, serious, comprehensive dive into the actual NYPD or Rikers budgets.

PAYING THE WRITER

Well, we’ve got another strike going, because while story distributors really like making all the money that comes with distributing stories, which they do not create, they’d rather not pay even a bit of that money to the people who actually create the stories.

Update: we've started replicating their experiments directly with GPT4 calls, and somehow it only gets worse.

DOJ just released the report from its two-year investigation of the Minneapolis police department.

Here's a thread of notable excerpts.

This first one happened *while a DOJ investigator was on a ride-along.*

Hate is infiltrating our everyday lives like the poisoned air filtering down from northern wildfires — hardly visible until the air is so thick with toxins that no one will be able to breathe.

Stealthily, without proportionate recognition, Joe Biden is not just having a good presidency, he's having one that is historic in its concrete achievements and successes. The fair & balanced types in the media won't characterize it fairly because to do so, would 'feel' biased.

I do not think it means what you think it means.

I was messing around with this a few months ago. Glad to see this much more thorough paper. Unfortunately I think the biggest problem for automated causal inference is still finding compelling applications.

The Supreme Court does not have to bend the knee to Congress. They just have to hold their own to some standards.
