What's the key difference between our two political parties? Republicans play politics, Democrats exercise power.

That whole era of Australia's naval officers had been through WW1 as Midshipmen and junior officers and then through all the years of WW2 - of those that survived, some even backed up for Korea.

Not enough sun screen can do that. It's an amazing, inspiring story, nonetheless.

This is the heart of WJ. I'd argue of C S Peirce as well. Ideas is how we maneuver our way through uncertainty. The bad ones leave us run aground.

The ultimate reason that Medieval Scholasticism failed was its failure to show that conceptual distinctions made a material difference. William James' Pragmatism is based on this insight. This is how Pragmatism remains powerful for me, and why Popper took it seriously.

Just coming back from a defense tech event on the beautiful IU campus. Indiana is going to be an epicenter of America's manufacturing comeback.

I seem to remember something about student protests, REAL student protests, in some square in Beijing. There are pictures of that, too.

This is obvious propaganda slop meant to contrast the West with the nation represented by these tourists. It’s everywhere on X. Reminder that China operates the world’s most sophisticated techno authoritarian state and dissent is illegal. Also, France needs to crack down on these anti-West riots for all of our sake.

Faulty memory on my part. I stand corrected. In fact, let's pretend that post never happened.

‘57? And you’re rubbing it in over the Braves leaving for Atlanta. And the Sox might’ve won had they been able to prorate the 11 they scored in Game 1 over the rest of the Series.

Very funny. But didn't Milwaukee win a World Series in 1958? And the Chisox in 59? Strange days.

Honestly, none, though I loved Sammy Spear. And I did see Gleason in “Sly Fox.” He died shortly after that. Of course, we have the Handy Housewife Helper which can “core a apple.” Doesn’t everybody?

Europe's migrant population grew by 40.8 million between 2000 and 2024, up 67%. The UK, Spain and Germany together account for almost half of that increase.
