Been busy with book writing (another short book in the works while I wait for advance readers feedback on the numbers book; less math more management), so no time to blog. Some images from my Twitter for now.
When someone putatively supports one side (free markets) but uses such a flawed and weak argument, I recommend they wholeheartedly join the other side. This level of fail almost suggests it's a false flag.
A bit steep for me.
I find myself agreeing with and extending Yanis Varoufakis.
While getting some of YV's books in audible form for travel and rowing, I realized that maybe Audible's search engine has some pathologies...
Trying a new yogurt I found at Whole Paycheck, ahem, Foods. Those live cultures help with 'le transit intestinal' as the French say. Obs: 1. very pricey; 2. P:E ratio 2/3 (low for yogurt); and 3. Inconsistent message. Taste: 7/10, will buy again.
From a site that has "engineering" in its title. Apparently not engineering enough for its writers to do basic (middle-school) physics. Relying on the NYT for physics is like using a chocolate frying pan. Behold:
Note that at Mach 15, around 5 km/s the energy density of a projectile is 12.5 MJ/kg (~ 3 times that of TNT), so the first sentence only makes sense for a impactor of around 1 to 3 tons. (More feasible that 100 tons, at least.)
Audiophiles aren't, in general, audiophools. There's some foolishness in the wings, but mostly what people who criticize us don't like is that we have taste and discernment.
