This is a more fair comparison. Moving avg of 365days of % of window above $4. Raw scale is misleading by hiding episodic peaks. Eg russia/ukraine exogenous supply shock in ~day 395 (spike) of Biden term that dissipated by late ‘22 (~day 750). Trump on day ~500 has constant growth of %days above $4.

Oh for gods sake. First, while it’s true that Florida has the highest ACA enrollment in the country, no, there are not "5 x more people enrolled in Obamacare in Florida than live in the state." Around 19% of the total population is enrolled, which is high but hardly over 100%. 1/5th =/= 5x.

@jvl.bsky.social this actually bolsters the premise of something that won’t go away after he’s gone. Nice case study, prime the masses in first term astroturf style… let it fester while out of office, pick at scab when back in office and take advantage of the now authentic anger.

Fourteen years ago, HBO's 'The Newsroom' laid out the truth about voter ID in this segment. It’s striking how little the arguments — or the tactics — have changed. Still a solution in search of a problem. History doesn’t repeat itself — it gets rerun.

British statistician F. N. David (b. #OTD 1909): + Foundational pioneer in the field of modern probability & combinatorics + Applied her mathematical expertise to secretly assist the British military in critical defense operations #WWII + Lifelong efforts to promote women in statistics #WomenInSTEM
A grainy black-and-white photograph of pioneering British statistician Dr. Florence Nightingale David (1909–1993) seated at her office desk. Known for her foundational work in probability and her secret World War II military calculations, she is depicted leaning slightly forward with her hands clasped on the desk surface. She wears a structured, dark blazer with two visible sleeve buttons over a light-colored, patterned, open-collar button-down shirt. Her expression is calm and pleasant, looking directly into the camera with a subtle, slight smile through wire-rimmed spectacles. She has short, dark, closely cropped hair. Her office setting is utilitarian and academic; the background features a dark bulletin board pinned with papers, charts, and small reference sheets, reflecting her active research environment. The lighting is direct, casting soft shadows, conveying a focused, intellectual, and historic mood appropriate for a premier 20th-century woman in STEM.

Computer scientist Margaret Hamilton coined the term “software engineer.” She directed the Software Engineering Division at MIT’s Instrumentation Lab & led development of the on-board flight software for NASA’s Apollo Guidance Computer. She was born #OTD in 1936 & turns 90 today! #WomenInSTEM
Two side-by-side black-and-white photographs of pioneering computer scientist Margaret Hamilton (born August 17, 1936). The left panel features a mature, close-up portrait where Hamilton gazes directly at the viewer with a serene, confident, and reflective expression, framed by her long, dark, slightly silvering hair. The right panel is a famous archival photograph showing a younger Hamilton standing indoors next to a towering stack of bound paper binders containing the Apollo Guidance Computer source code, which she led the development of at MIT. She is smiling broadly and wears a striped, long-sleeved mini dress with dark Mary Jane shoes and glasses, resting her hand proudly on top of the massive column of printed code. The overall composition contrasts her youthful triumph with her enduring legacy, capturing an optimistic, intellectually rigorous mood that highlights her monumental contributions to space exploration.
