I mean of course they were. Musk is a big whining baby. And he has realized that by manufacturing such idiotic things, he can get support from Repubs and ... perhaps sell more Teslas.
Replying to @JuddLegum
Call me crazy, but it's almost like the "Twitter Files" were not about transparency but simply a clumsy effort by Elon Musk to MANUFACTURE A NARRATIVE

He is making sense. But the same thing coming from soneone in the Labor Party will be construed as "far-left" utopian non-sense. Also I find the cognitive dissonance astonishing here: We should do something for the working classes, but I am a Tory... In the 21st century.

Un économiste qui n'a pas vu ses propres modèles alors. Hahaha "trop peu d'observables" "trop de params" ... Les modeles DSGE on en parle? les modeles basé sur "inflation expectations" on en parle ?

"est la preuve que l'innovation existe là où sont les incitations, encore un insight d'économistes." --- Mais ... sérieusement?? C'est du troll, j’espère.

Economists when physicist do economic modeling: human beings are not atoms. Economists doing serious economics: Parents set up a bellman equation that they solve to compute the optimal action to take as their child cries in the corner.
Hold on, trying to figure out my parenting style

Je pense que y a pas pire que @bouyguestelecom en termes de mauvaise service. Même après avoir restitué les équipements, on continue à me harceler. On me facture pour des équipements que j’ai déjà rendus. Une réponse @bouyguestelecom ?

This has been in the works for some time. But here it is. I am moving into a new job (non-academic) so would be shutting down this account. If you want to still follow me (and god only knows why), send me a dm within the week. Cheers all !
I don’t like Medvedev. But he is pushing Djokovic to the limit here. #USOpen
I have been watching CNN for the last hour or so and it’s just so… bizarre. Also jake tapper has to be the most useless person there. Like the most inane talking points said with like smug authority. quite frankly, the US is doomed coz its clear that news is a game to them.

I will say this a grand total of one time. It is F***ing bonkers that there is ANY opposition to vaccines in the developed world. Reeks of their privilege and being so ignorant about anything but themselves. Infuriating doesn’t even begin to capture my feelings here.

I will continue to believe that the parade was actually for this cutie!

Can the subaltern speak? The Stephen’s debate club : Hold my chai!
There are so many students from Ashoka in Oxford that now when I find someone came from St Stephen's, I think of them as subaltern.

This!! Took me a long time to overcome feelings of inferiority over this. Some people at Stephen’s from my batch were copies of each other and every activity they did in college was geared towards that degree in Oxford. Found them quite a bit uninteresting too.
