“I've spoken of the shining city […] a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace; a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity. And if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here. That's how I saw it, and see it still.” – 🇺🇸 Ronald Reagan (January 11, 1989) Related

In yesterday’s SOTEU speech, I made clear that the EU must continue applying pressure on Russia, taking every possible step to weaken its war machine.

Once again, Europe woke up to reckless and dangerous Russian behaviour. A Russian warship fired emergency flares dangerously close to a Danish helicopter. A drone entered Lithuanian airspace before being destroyed by NATO fighter jets. These are not isolated incidents. They are part of a broader pattern of Russian aggression and provocation against Europe, testing our readiness and our resolve. Russia will find our resolve only growing stronger. We are reinforcing our collective deterrence and defence, together with NATO. And we are stepping up the pressure on Russia. Europe Russia Related

Good question, even if framed too aggressively. But the answer is no. During QE, given the zero lower bound that prevented further decreases in policy rates, the ECB bought long maturity national bonds, including those of France, so as to decrease long-term interest rates and help countries, including France. Now, as we are away from the lower bound, there are few reasons to keep as many of them. As these are sold (or not rolled over at maturity) through QT, this indeed likely increases long rates a bit and makes it harder for France to adjust. If selling these bonds turns out to be strongly… Quoting @RobianoAntoine Le raisonnement paraît juste mais - L'annulation de la dette détenue retirerait à la BCE l'une de ces nombreuses sources de pouvoir exorbitant, celui de revendre des titres de dette publique d'un Etat pour contraindre politiquement ce dernier ? interest rates Related

Two positions I believe, both pretty strongly: 1. LLMs -- deep learning in general -- is novel and weird and powerful and important. The world is becoming *much weirder* as a result, and we do not yet know how deep the rabbit hole goes; and 2. LLMs, as of today, are still quite limited and fall short of "human intelligence" in many ways; they are also relatively much better at "appearing intelligent" than "being intelligent," which makes them easy to overestimate LLMs Related
