    I also have a guest room in my apartment (downtown Menlo Park), and am happy to take people out to dinner. I've gotten value from social media before, but the shallowness it encourages isn't what I need right now.

    If you are a libertarian who only talks about guns, taxes, & speech (all worthy!) -- you are missing out on the opportunity to also speak on other libertarian issues. Like State police brutality, ICE corruption,& advocating for more legal immigration. Those are Big Gov issues too

    This is phenomenally good! Lots of people think environmental review protects the environment because it has the word “environmental” in it. But it’s purely a procedural requirement with zero substantive protection. All it does is delay stuff. A+

    Despite reports of international students leaving the United States in droves upon graduation, & team find that “stay rates among international graduates in AI are persistently high” at almost 90%. Curious as to why? Read their report here:

    Okay. Here's a THREAD about divestment (and why it's driven mostly by economics, not good citizenship), theories of change in climate / energy, and the power of tapping into self-interested economic motivations among corporates, banks, and investers. Ready? Here we go.

    Good news! Although the reduction was slight, US greenhouse gas emissions dropped last year, even as the economy grew. I suspect that, as renewables become a larger and larger part of US energy production, the drops will become more and more dramatic.

    The claim that Full Fact had found vastly more Tory ads than Labour ads was itself a gigantic pile of ludicrous bullshit. An ad was counted as a lie if it linked to the Tory manifesto which included a hospitals claim.

    My dad was tortured by the Gestapo for 4 days and thrown in a concentration camp for being in the Norwegian Resistance. Growing up, he would tell me things he learned in the Resistance. I thought, I'm never going to need this stuff. Here's some things of those things

    Yes, the people in a country are generally thrilled when a hostile foreign power kills one of their top military leaders.

    1. There are unconfirmed reports that Qasem Soleimani commander of Qods Force (Iran's external security agency) has been killed in drone strikes. If true, this will be a major moment in US-Iran relations & Supreme Leader will undoubtedly see this as a major provocation/act of war

    If you care about making government work, I can't think of a better opportunity than this. I would personally be applying if I wasnt building - which I hope many people on this new team will end up using. And if you get a job at #10, tell us your feature requests!
