Interesting stuff

  1. AI in the field: It won’t help with irrigation efficiency.
  2. Listen to learn about the fraud and profiteering by Medicare insurance companies ripping off taxpayers, part one and two.
  3. The government of Amsterdam claims that it has reached its autoluw (“nearly car free”) goals with its 30km/h regulation. This is a cowardly betrayal of worthy goals — fewer cars (moving/parked) and more car free streets. A typical example of overpromise and underdeliver… on behalf of cars that only a minority use, let alone need. (I counted over 200 bikes parked on my block and 25 cars. That 8:1 ratio needs to show up at the ballot box.)
  4. Mr Money explains tariffs very well.
  5. Watch an insightful discussion between Jon Stewart and Trevor Noah
  6. “Kids” (10-25 years) think different from “adults,” who often misunderstand that difference. Listen in.
