Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

AO, If You're Listening...

I had an advisee - great kid, a touch goofy - who graduated last year (2021). He and I had two big arguments. The merits of crypto and the eminence of Elon Musk. All of this was simply me being an old fart and realizing that crypto is just another valueless bubble and Musk was just a conman wedded to the excess zeal of venture capitalism.

There really is nothing new under the sun.
