My experience with Canadian banks has been horrifying.

When I have to use CAD I do as much as I can with Wise now.

I have a vague impression you are Canadian. Do you really need to go into a branch to send a wire?

The Quick Access SharePoint locations that now show up every time you want to open or save a file in Office apps (and can't be removed) is the most outrageous and disrespectful thing I've seen from them in a long time. Two clicks, a scroll, and a click to get to an Explorer window to save a .doc

This is a great new series

Why do you draw the comparison to $AMC?

I think it not only screens out inveterate bad actors but in some cases also improves behavior of those who would be users in any event.

If we're looking back in history, I always thought it was inappropriate for them not to break out how much GPU demand was from crypto miners back in the late 2010s.

I think this was an especially good one.

I can tell you chardonnay is definitely not elite-coded in Boulder, CO. The local wine store guy was most excited to talk about an Australian who just moved here, was upset at not being able to find hard ginger beer, and started making it himself.

Richard Feynman's appearance was pretty good though

He likened Trump to Hitler in 2016. So the calculation definitely changed after Trump won.

Isn't AI data center capex a surprisingly large share of GDP growth at the moment?

I'm a big fan. It's far from a weeknight cookbook, but I'll say I have had a great result making the multi day pastilla from Nopi for a special event (recipe is also on his website).

I actually think Plenty More is better.

I admit I was surprised to learn from @edwardluce.bsky.social's lunch with Bannon that he has for years been a teetotaler.

This was excellent

The river is not too warm to cool the reactors. Nuclear plants are sometimes taken offline during heat waves with the goal of protecting heat sensitive plant or animal life downstream, since they add incremental heat. Warmer water has no impact on the safety or efficacy of cooling nuclear reactors.

Really excellent penultimate paragraph

It means Chinese-made intermediate goods that are manufactured elsewhere into finished goods for re-export. For example, Chinese motherboards exported to Taiwan for assembly into laptops that are then exported to the US. Looking only at bilateral China-US trade in motherboards is an underestimate.

More if you count Chinese content exported to SE Asia and then re-exported to the US. From Brad Setser.

This seems so clear from the historical record in places like 2000s Russia.
