[AI summary] The text discusses the implications of quantum mechanics and the concept of expected energy in quantum systems. It highlights the difference between the average energy of a quantum state and the energy of the system post-measurement, emphasizing that the former is a statistical average while the latter is determined by the measurement outcome. The discussion also touches on the broader context of quantum theory, including the role of measurement and the probabilistic nature of quantum states. Additionally, it references the importance of energy in physical processes and the connection to classical thermodynamics, suggesting that while quantum mechanics provides a framework for understanding energy at a fundamental level, classical concepts still...

Early this year, we argued that the Fed created a policy crisis by refusing to acknowledge the rise of trend inflation, maintaining a hyper-expansionary policy well after trend inflation reached levels far above their 2% target, and failing to articulate a credible low-inflation policy. Against this background, we comm...
