I joined Pakistan's finance minister, Daron Acemoglu and Reza Baqir to discuss Pakistan's economy at Harvard in April this year. Our conversation is now available on youtube. Hope people find it useful.

The "China shock" narrative illustrates why the lack of debate is a problem in economics. Autor et al. published a series of articles that have since been falsified by subsequent research. However, few realize this, which means the articles persist, like zombies. 1/8

From my non-social-media spouse, a new paper, using LLMs to replicate ... everything. nber.org/papers/w35782 Headlne: "Across 4,452 published replication packages for five economics journals, the workflow flags discrepancies in 3,460 articles or their appendices."

If you were Israeli leaders, and believed you were being globally accused of crimes you didn't commit in Gaza, what's the first thing you'd do? Urge the international media to go to Gaza and report the truth. But if you know the accusations are true, you'd ban international media from reporting freely. That's what Israel is doing even a year after a "cease-fire," and the reason could not be more obvious.

🇮🇱🇵🇸 They smash medical equipment inside Gaza hospitals. They film themselves doing it. Then they post it for amusement. Israeli soldiers, in their own footage.

I’m once again reminding you to chop up some potatoes, cook with ground beef, onions, and garlic. Add veggies and whatever spices you want. Once complete will have created a meal that’s high protein, fiber, and micronutrients while tasting delicious.

One of the most revealing statistics that highlights how Israel operates is the % of destruction wrought on Lebanon pre vs post (first) ceasefire on April 16 2026: "65 per cent of destruction indicators occurred after 16 April, compared with around a third before it".
Nicolas Sawaya
@sawaya_nicolasSep 15
You'll notice that despite multiple "ceasefires", Israel continues its attacks in Lebanon, even when Hizballah completely ceases its attacks. For Israel, a "ceasefire" means you cease, we (continue to) fire.

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

Who and what goes unseen in Pakistan's development story? @UNDP_Pakistan and CDPR convened voices from government, development partners, academia, think tanks, media & the private sector to shape the questions at the heart of #NHDR2027. One thread connected the room: which people, places and realities does the state actually see, and who decides what counts? 👁️ Watch the highlights → #NHDRPakistan #HumanDevelopment #LeaveNoOneBehind
