@StefanFSchubert @FiveThirtyEight That's more logical but I feel like fans of those teams would be pretty crushed not to make the semifinals — PolitiTweet.org

@5thAveSnoozer @NateSilver538 @FiveThirtyEight Looking at these numbers, Morocco, Serbia, and Japan might all be tier 2 more than tier 3. — PolitiTweet.org

So there are kind of three tiers of World Cup teams: 1) Teams with a chance to win, who would be crushed not to make the semifinal 2) Teams with a chance to make a splash, who'd be crushed not to make it to the Round of 16 3) Teams who would be thrilled to make the Round of 16 https://t.co/C0Cp8hnQg3 — PolitiTweet.org

We’ve gotten great at keeping human hardware healthy, allowing many to max out the natural human lifespan. The next frontier is the natural human lifespan, which is a software problem. We are all pre-programmed to self-destruct shortly after 90. Who knows how to update DNA? https://t.co/t3AbsUZj2E — PolitiTweet.org
