@tom_bike The timestamp in my photo is 10.37, so it was likely quite a bit earlier than that as i’d watched it for a few minutes. Could even be 10+ minutes earlier?

#hughesfire Hughes Fire moments after starting as we flew over at 10.40am on the way into LA. Now at thousands of acres 😬

@Andercot Man, I was obsessed with anti-gravity as a physics undergrad and was offered a PhD working on details of the Casimir force. I’ll be so gutted I didn’t take that opportunity if this all turns out to be true! (but I want it to be true, so thanks for getting me excited again)

@z_di1200 @gale_kc @VivekGRamaswamy @Cernovich No. Simply that working on problems related to air pollution doesn’t mean you’re dealing with climate change.

@gale_kc @VivekGRamaswamy @Cernovich Air pollution isn’t climate change. You’re not really helping your cause.

@gale_kc @VivekGRamaswamy @Cernovich “America First”, not “Americans First”. There’s a difference.

@PSRealTalk I remember that Making Sense episode, it was painful. I’m glad they became friends but I still think Peterson spouts gibberish at times (more so of late)

@BasedBeffJezos Moved from the UK to the US a decade ago and the "can do" vs "can't do" attitude was a big difference. It felt like everyone grinds harder here bc of that. Granted, that was at MIT, so probably an extreme case. There are places like that in the UK, just got to have more of them.

@BasedPatriotX @greg_price11 Fair point. And, to be honest, I don’t see how this is any different to how Trump answers e.g. things paying for themselves.

@jaltucher If you parse by demographics then US is doing very well, so I think this is not straight forward. @cremieuxrecueil posted the chart for PISA scores recently

@_BlondeKing @paulg @parkerconrad She’s a (presumptive) party nominee, people will decide who is president in November. That’s how he’s wrong. He’s got to be engagement harvesting as he can’t be that dumb, surely?

@ianbremmer Would love your thoughts on a unity ticket with sane Republican VP? Would anyone (on either side) go for that??

@cremieuxrecueil Why the log scale? I’d think that linear would make the point far more striking
