PEPFAR is one of the most popular, bipartisan US foreign aid programs. The State Department says it has saved 25million lives, but there isn't much public, independent verification. Last week I invited some friends to a weekend hackatjon to see if PEPFAR's numbers held up.

As a non-believer w/ ~10 month old, I recount parenthood to folks saying it peppers your life with the numinous in ways that other experiences/categories I’ve had in life don’t do as much. Not “joy” but awe & connectednesss: dadhood ~= hiking in Zion; sounds weird but true to me

Heads-up ED ATEN ✌🏽🕊☮️'s Merchbar @merchbarsupport is a scam company. Do not order from them. I wish I had checked the reviews of the company on BBB before I placed an order. Over a month since order cancellation and no refund in sight. bbb.org/us/ca/san-fran…

How on earth does this happen with a Labour councilor when Labour has “committed” to building 1.5m homes? I lived in Battersea when I worked in London (I commuted from Clapham Jn). We had housemates as a married couple because of rent costs. 👎🏻 “heritage” in Battersea 😂

How do imports affect GDP? It's more nuanced than you might think. The "D" in GDP is "domestic" -- by design the purchase of imported goods and services should have no direct impact on GDP. Read below for clarity. stlouisfed.org/publications/p…
