OK fine, this reading list is not spooky. But it’s still really good. Google posts a 23% decline in profit! And a very interesting piece by Tyler Cowen on the game theory dynamic going on between President Trump and Senator McConnell. Lots of aspects I hadn’t thought about at all.
- Republicans Accuse Colonel Vindman, a Jew Who Fled Soviet Persecution, of Dual Loyalty. The Intercept. Pretty shocking. Dude moved here when he was 3 and grew up in Brooklyn.
- I am no longer a Republican. Greg Mankiw.
- Why are Jamaicans the fastest runners in the world? Tyler Cowen, Marginal Revolution.
- Trump’s Conviction Is More Likely Than It Appears. Tyler Cowen again. Interesting take on the game theory of the impeachment process. Lots of factors I hadn’t considered.
- Google, in Rare Stumble, Posts 23% Decline in Profit. NY Times.
- How “special register groups” invaded computer dictionaries for decades. Ken Shirriff. Usually authoritative information can be trusted. Sometimes it can’t.
