Not to interrupt dunking on Barro, which is fun, but does anyone have a link to this study? I’m struggling to find it somehow.

I’m not saying this is an endorsement of my effort to acquire Pizza Hut, but I’m not NOT saying that either.

As I revisit my old stomping grounds here in the Wichita area to help with some family stuff, let me remind you all that I am seeking the right partners to help me restore The Hut to it's appropriate place among the stars. Pass it on.

AI-powered search engines rely on β€œless popular” sources, researchers find Generative search engines often cite sites that wouldn’t appear in Google’s top 100 links.

This is nice summary of what is happening with AI generated search summaries. In some ways, there is a powerful opportunity in here, particularly for smaller businesses. But I'm not sure how reliable this data is or whether it's worth committing resources to.

Having shitty, corrupt, thuggish cops is expensive.

Not for the cops I mean. But for the taxpayers.

MLB pitchers Emmanuel Clase and Luis Ortiz charged with taking bribes to rig pitches Two Major League Baseball pitchers have been indicted on charges they took bribes to give bettors advance notice of the types of pitches they'd throw and intentionally tossed balls instead of strikes.

I've been on the "oh no, gambling on your phone on sports if very very bad" train since the beginning, so I mostly just nod sadly at stories like this now. What a mess. I don't know how we fix this one either.

If any Kansans want to no unaffiliated, Kansas allows you to declare for a primary at the poll pad. You'll hand them your ID, they'll see you are independent, and ask you which primary you'd like to vote in. Very easy.

I don't buy that the Trump Admin has anything to do with this productivity surge (as the headline would suggest). Trend was that way anyway for 3/4 sectors. But I am fascinated that a productivity surge has survived. ht to @adamtooze.bsky.social for highlighting this. www.ft.com/content/b72e...

This time-to-liquidity function over the last decade may not seem like much, but if you apply an inflation adjusted impact to IRR calculation to this, the impact on most venture funds is pretty substantial. It's a hard business. Has been for awhile.

I think a lot of Kansans now understand this dude to be an empty suit, but this is particularly galling given his profession.

I know you're all on the edge of your seats... I have not made the kind of progress creating an online movement of Pizza Hut aficionados that I would like, but I have definitely found some off-line curiosity in my efforts to buy and turn around The Hut. Join the revolution!
