This also sums up the American healthcare experience pretty well. American healthcare is a travesty. This is the bad place.

Elon Musk is bankrolling an ad campaign to get you to check your voter registration through an innocent-sounding website. But his real goal is to collect and sell your personal data to advertising companies, Big Tech, and other Republican PACs.

I think one reason data center outrage is so pronounced is people spent decades recycling and composting and otherwise scrimping to offset energy use and protect clean water, and the second we hit an inflection point for cheap electricity the banking industry said we’re taking all of it, fuck you

Extraordinary detail in the new book on Trump's second term administration
After they wrapped up their research, the authors sat down with Trump to check their facts. He drifted on to why his "love affair" with Venezuela went back to his years of owning the Miss Universe pageant, which featured many beautiful Venezuelans. What he really wanted to relate was a conversation he had had with a historian whose verdict was that Trump was "without question, the most powerful man the planet [had] ever known - by a long way." The historian had sent Trump a two-page memo from which he read. "If President Trump is the American Eagle, then William the Conqueror was merely a sparrow." Curious about the identity of the historian, Swan tracked down a golf caddie in Florida, who confessed a passion for history.

The idea that Americans pay more taxes than Europeans is catastrophically false, verging on delusional. This is what people on this site mean when we talk about populism killing the future. People just believe shit which is not remotely true, because it makes them feel better?

Denmark's coal-to-wind transition is one of the most dramatic energy transformations of the past three decades. In 1990, coal provided 90% of Danish electricity. Today it is under 3%. Wind now covers roughly 60% of electricity generation. The last coal plant is scheduled to close by 2028.

we recently made the switch to electric (finally) ourselves and I absolutely adore the Ioniq EV9. It's also true for road trips (youth basketball tournaments in central PA) it takes a bit more thinking/planning. But, after a few of those you get completely used to it and it's smooth sailing.

CPI and PPI translations into PCE suggest core prices in January rose around 0.43%, give or take. That would be the highest month-over-month reading since February (which was +0.448%) and annualizes to 5.3%. It corresponds to a 3.1% y/y rate, the highest since March 2024, up from 2.6% in April.
