@stevengberman I don't know very much about most of those companies. Monsanto and Nvidia both seem to do a lot of important work. — PolitiTweet.org

One thing that gives me heart is that Zuckerberg, who's very smart and perceptive, seems to realize that Facebook is pretty pointless and is trying to pivot the company into totally different ideas about VR etc. But he should be a role model to his employees who should quit. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Something I hate is the existence of "tech" as a discourse construct that lumps together Facebook with Google & Apple & Amazon and other companies that are making things that are less pointless. I'm the furthest thing from a "tech" critic. Tech is good. Go do something good! — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
I don't think it should be illegal or anything. But if I heard of a really smart, talented chemist and he was spending his time trying to tweak the formula for Fritos to make them slightly more compelling I'd say that's kind of sad. That's not a great use of time and talent. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Now obviously in some sense it would be great for everyone to go do something incredibly self-sacrificing and idealistic. I think everyone knows that and also everyone knows the limits of that exhortation. I'm making a more specific point about Facebook — it's product is dumb. — PolitiTweet.org

Thread here taking issue with my anti-Facebookism so I want to be clear — I'm not saying the smart, hard-working engineers wasting their lives at Facebook should go be do-gooders, I'm saying they should work for different less worthless tech companies. https://t.co/6xSm3r8cV8 — PolitiTweet.org

@threestationsq @nilocobau @dmtrubman @alon_levy Alon once crayoned a plan to de-interline NYC in order to boost capacity and reliability — all things are possible when the crayon is wielded by a skilled hand and this is why Alon needs to do more of them. — PolitiTweet.org

Gotta bring back Walter White’s extra-good meth to drive fentanyl out of the market. — PolitiTweet.org

@binarybits @Noahpinion Yeah lots of things that are rightly legal also deserve to attract some social opprobrium. The sense that everything should be either banned or else deemed equally worthwhile as anything else leads to both overregulation and too little virtuous behavior. — PolitiTweet.org

Why don’t Republicans ever try to secure an edge by intervening in Democratic Party primaries on behalf of candidates who support the violent overthrow of legitimate election results? — PolitiTweet.org

It was really dumb of the rich world to cheap out on actually producing JYNNEOS doses at large scale in a timely manner. We invented an effective monkeypox vaccine *before the outbreak started* and still don't have enough. https://t.co/UjZwCnpvHx https://t.co/6rTJQ1eb1y — PolitiTweet.org

The worst thing about Facebook is that a non-trivial number of really smart, hard-working people are spending their lives working there when they could be doing something worthwhile with their time. — PolitiTweet.org

To me the MI-3 situation belongs in the "worse than a crime — a mistake" bucket where it's very unlikely it actually made a difference, but has generated tons of bad press all because someone wanted to look clever in public. — PolitiTweet.org

Tax incidence is funny. If DC eliminated its 10% tax on restaurant meals, it seems plausible that this would lead indirectly to more purchases of tables. But nobody would call it a “tax cut for table manufacturing companies” or whatever. — PolitiTweet.org
