Saying the quiet part out loud.

While there's some truth to this, consider the richest marriages. Among men in the Forbes 400, the initial age gap is around 7 years, which is about 70% larger than the gap in the general population. But when they remarry, the gap averages 22.32 years— >500% of the typical gap!

Sanseito has vowed to slash the number of foreign nationals in Japan and cap foreign residents at 5% of Japanese citizens in each municipality. In Tokyo where the foreigner population is significantly higher than 5% it would mean foreigners would be expelled. Sakoku 2.0?

Is there a name for a fallacy where I post a really good paper critiquing a common methodological flaw in a field of study and showing how the results are different than what lots of papers on this topic produce, and some rando who thinks he or she is brilliant goes “well here…

With the H-1B lottery set to be replaced by something non-random, firms acting as middlemen and flooding the system with lottery entries are going to lose their niche and disappear. Good!

Congratulations to Sanseitō and all Japanese people who voted to preserve their heritage! It is your right to pursue a path of independent development for your people!

The “Japanese First” Sanseito party has surged to become the third-most popular choice among voters ahead of Sunday’s Upper House election, according to a July Jiji Press poll released Thursday. Support for Sanseito in the proportional representation bloc is at 6.9%, having…

Salazar is a Republican. This is a good example of how partisanship =/= politics, and the 2024 Republican shift of US LatinX does not mean the political shift they're causing is actually no big deal. A victorious Republican Party pushing redistribution and amnesty is not a win.

My compromise proposal for French people: you can admit any refugees you want if they live in your house, and you will be liable for any problems they make.

Harvard economist Eugen Dimant: “Immigration from corruption-ridden origin countries boosts corruption in the destination country.”

Alright so I’m thinking we keep Elon alive for now and ship him to China where he can work on making robotic waifus real but can’t do any retarded shilling for Indians or else the CPC will just pull a Jack Ma on him. There’s potential here.

I had to allow some sketchy covariances to make the model fit more or less acceptable so perhaps the moral foundations just isn't a very good construct (or maybe I'm just bad at this). I achieved scalar invariance and though some trends are nonlinear they seem real:

Am I the only one thinking that he secretly enjoys this?

Holy shit he actually returned from his walk.
