So I’m seeing some people saying that banking problems will cause a recession, and also that financial dominance, by preventing rate hikes, will doom the fight against inflation. You can’t believe both things!

AI now getting high marks on standardised exams is impressive, but I think it also says a lot about how many exams are a terrible way of assessing human knowledge

A me sembra strano che si faccia un’inchiesta penale su come furono gestiti i primi giorni del Covid. Che si siano fatti errori è chiaro, ex post. Ma era una situazione del tutto nuova. In tutti i paesi si sono fatti errori, ma non mi sembra si facciano inchieste penali ovunque.
