Jon Stewart spilled coffee on me one time at Bagel Bob’s but this was pre-Daily Show when he wasn’t particularly famous either. — PolitiTweet.org

@RichardHanania No, I’m doing it wrong. But I couldn’t think of a better meme format with which to express the speed at which my conversation went from pleasant consensus to off the rails. — PolitiTweet.org

Barack Obama beat me to the last slice of bacon at a hotel breakfast buffet in 2004, but he wasn’t famous at the time. — PolitiTweet.org

At my kid’s school they use a very strict phonics curriculum, the results have been good, and the whole community really respects the hard work the teachers put in to deliver it. https://t.co/5dCnXYrjze — PolitiTweet.org

There is nothing better we could do for equity and social justice in education than to convince schools to use effective reading instruction methods even if teachers find them tedious. https://t.co/UPyGwi4hHG https://t.co/AmZSaqPLvi — PolitiTweet.org

@JossFong I’d also say a video audience is more valuable than a text audience so there is more potential upside to doing good work there — it gives me no pleasure as a text guy to admit this, but the quality of work going into video is just higher. — PolitiTweet.org

@stanveuger @BrendanNyhan Yes it’s like how proto-EA book Reasons & Persons goes through dozens of bizarre (and brilliant imo) metaphysical and ethical arguments before landing on “nuclear war would be really bad.” — PolitiTweet.org

@BrendanNyhan I agree. I’m just saying the debatable part of the claim about AGI risk is the empirical one, the argument doesn’t actually hinge on any contentious normative views about the long-term. — PolitiTweet.org

I find the AI risk discourse to be frustratingly lacking in actionable ideas for me or anyone else to take, but again that’s almost the opposite of deprioritizing other work. On pandemics, I think it’s just clearly correct that this should be an urgent short-term priority. — PolitiTweet.org

The argument that tech companies’ current AI research programs are likely to lead to human extinction some time in the next 20-50 years is contentious and disputed, but it doesn’t involve any controversial claims about the relative importance of present vs future people. — PolitiTweet.org

The more I think about it, the more I find the “longtermism” label puzzling since the actual two main ideas that self-described longtermists are advancing about pandemics and AI governance actually involve large probabilities and short time horizons. — PolitiTweet.org

@JHWeissmann I also think white progressives brushed past the substance of the allegation that she passed herself off as Native American to help Harvard make its hiring diversity look better than it actually was in a way that nonwhite voters may have been appropriately less forgiving of. — PolitiTweet.org

You can interpret this different ways, but it’s worth knowing that Warren was more popular with male college graduates than with non-college women. https://t.co/Kf7dq9UBU6 — PolitiTweet.org

Also conservatives please note that the Inflation Reduction Act is the most important pro-nuclear legislation that congress has passed in forever. Republicans, sadly, are standing in the way. https://t.co/DuPGOuHF73 — PolitiTweet.org

@CitizenCohn I think people need to understand that there’s a double meaning to the idea that the election was “stolen” (by big tech and the media through biased coverage blah blah) much as some Democrats said that the 2016 election was “hacked” by the Russians. https://t.co/IE9AQzaF9G — PolitiTweet.org
