Really perfect economic combo where interest rates are increasing fast enough that homeowners are facing declining home values *and* homebuyers are facing increasing monthly payments. Just pure pain for everyone involved in buying or selling a home right now.

One thing that I keep thinking about with policing overall, and this is a particularly egregious version of it, is that cops generally don’t have any sense of risk modulation. Either they act like there’s no risk or that there’s extreme risk and that assessment can change in a split second.

Akazawa Ryōsei, who negotiated the US-Japan "trade" agreement last year and remains point man for its implementation, just published a short book about the negotiations. I'm reading it in case he says anything interesting but I'm not expecting much, esp. since he's still in the cabinet.

also USAID has been extremely focused on building local capacity for at least a decade (it was always focused on it to a degree but it took on much more salience in the 2000-10s) it's just that as it turns out the kind of places that need foreign aid also aren't exactly overflowing w/local capacity
