Talking to independent physicians, it's obvious that the big insurance carriers are doing to them, what their PBMs are doing to independent pharmacies. They deny, underpay, slow pay, clawback, and create administrative mazes, knowing their victims don't have the time or…

The Coast Guard reports that over 3/4 of the boats they stop have drugs. That’s a great job and an admirable record for accurate information. But it’s not so great if you’re droning them instead of arresting them. If you’re killing people, 1 out of 4 potentially being wrong is…

I could not agree more violently with the conclusion here. Waymo’s data shows their cars are SO MUCH SAFER than human drivers that it would be unethical to slow or stop their rollout.

I have a guest essay in @nytimes today about autonomous vehicle safety. I wrote it because I’m tired of seeing children die. Done right, we can eliminate car crashes as a leading cause of death in the United States @Waymo recently released data covering nearly 100 million…

A horse went into a bar and ordered a pint. The bartender said, "You know, you're in here pretty often. Do you think you might be an alcoholic?" The horse said, "I don't think I am..." and promptly vanished from existence. That's a reference to Descartes's famous line, "I…


I went to a Stanford volleyball game recently, where the Stanford Band had a small group playing. When I asked Gemini for more info on the Stanford Band, this was the final paragraph. 🤣🤣🤣

This feels like a really solid and very broadly popular list.

If I were to roughly define the large, middle band of American politics right now in 10 points, I think it'd look something like this: 1. Relentless focus on solving affordability; "Abundance" x "Cut regulation" agenda 2. Moderate social politics that defend…

It's a revealing moment... J.D. Vance welcomes a two-legged robot helping on the job site. But if that helper is a person named Jose, he calls it a threat. Same tasks, same productivity boost. The inconsistency reveals this isn’t about economics.

Mamdani, Sherrill, and Spanberger are ideologically diverse but all represent generational change. Younger, in-touch leaders are the only way we both survive and emerge stronger on the other end of MAGA.

Very funny to have Noem talking about traffic safety, given that between 1989 and 2010 she collected 20 speeding tickets, three stop-sign violations, and a citation for driving without a license, along with six failure-to-appear notices.

Kristi Noem: "Putting these foreigners in tracker trailers like the ones you see behind me becomes extremely dangerous. I have driven semis over many many years and 18 wheelers and understand they're difficult to stop, maneuver."
