"Corrupted Climate Stations: The Official U.S. Temperature Record Remains Fatally Flawed"

I've read climate change advocates state that this simply doesn't matter. But why would they even want to give the appearance of cheating?


"Rare Earth hypothesis: Why we might really be alone in the universe"

It seem reasonable: there were a whole lot of seemingly unlikely events to make us possible. (On the other hand, there are a whole lot of planets out there.)


"A People Map of the US"

". . . where city names are replaced by their most Wikipedia’ed resident: people born in, lived in, or connected to a place."

See also "Notable People," the same idea applied to the whole world.


"Fit to Print? UNC’s Settlement with Nikole Hannah-Jones is Bad News"

You can't make this up--twenty, no less: "It turns out the $75,000 wasn’t quite enough. As part of her settlement, she somehow managed to secure a bunch of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) sinecures for 20 university administrators. Per the agreement, these bureaucrats will be attached to hiring committees for new university employees."


"New York City’s Growing Behavior Gap"

So very sad that NYC is having to relearn the lessons from a generation ago.

The removal of swift consequences for criminal behavior has led to an explosion of violence for even trivial slights.

See also Bill Bratton, "Politicians have forgotten what made the city safe".


"We Are Not Rule by Our Best and Brightest"

Spend 51 seconds with the Vice-President of the United States.

(From the comments: "She’s like a high schooler, using adjectives to pad the word count on the term paper about the book she never read.")


"Teachers Unions Are Why More Parents Want School Choice"

Yes, among other reasons.

See also "COVID taught 1M parents there are alternatives to failing public schools".


"Rethinking Higher Education"

I'll second this: "All of which suggests it might be an appropriate time to begin to rethink American higher education and examine alternatives to it."


"Would Berkshire insure an Elon Musk mission to Mars?"

Spoiler: the answer seems to be "Hell no".


"Why America Can’t Build"

Similar to articles I've linked to before, one cause--probably the primary cause--is too much misused federal legislation.


Best short explanation of how the stock market works (funny)

"Everyone knows everyone is bearish so that’s bullish but . . ."


Be glad if you don't have kids or grandkids attending regular New York public schools

"New York’s slimy educrats strike again with Regents question that cannot be named".  (Related: "A New York teacher exposes our state school-system sham — where guessing gets you a pass".)

"A NYC school diploma isn’t worth the paper it’s written on".


"Fauci and other health ‘experts’ are messing up monkeypox just as they did COVID, Ebola and AIDS"

Glenn Reynolds:

Once, I believed that the world is run by experts who know what to do. I believed that the best answer to a crisis is to listen to the experts and do what they say because they know best and can be trusted to have our interests at heart.

Yeah, I was an idiot. In my defense, I was young. Now I know better.


"In Surreal Story, 20-Year-Old Student Acquires 6% Of Bed Bath & Beyond, Makes $110 Million In 3 Weeks"

$110 million in three weeks??

Well, he did have to start with $25 million.

 


"The Easy Way To Avoid Federal Income Tax: Move to Puerto Rico"

I'll pass, but your mileage may vary.


"I Tried 8 Types of Fried Chicken & This Was the Best"

Not really a surprise.


"Lovely"

Yes, it "MadeMeSmile".


"When Van Dijk Decided to Use Superhuman Power"

Best DB I've seen play.


"14 Controversial Rules Fast-Food Employees Have to Follow"

"Starbucks employees have to stand in one place." Really?


"Live Aid: The Terrible Truth"

I'm old enough to remember when Bob Geldof was made out to be a hero or even a saint.

Oops.


"'Fast Times at Ridgemont High' came out 40 years ago: Where are they now?"

Catch up with Jennifer Jason Leigh, Phoebe Cates, Forest Whitaker, Eric Stoltz, and all the other leads in the very enjoyable movie Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

See also "Fast Times At Ridgemont High Signaled A Shake-Up In Studio Filmmaking" and "Revisiting Fast Times at Ridgemont High". This surprised me:

Unlike the wretched and narcissistic St. Elmo’s Fire, which would come out several years later, these are likable kids. Heckerling is right in pointing out that Fast Times has a lot of 1960s and 1970s revolutionary Hollywood in it, but in important ways it reflects the ethos of a man who was an important figure in the 1980s and whose name comes under some criticism in the film’s commentary track—Ronald Reagan.


"Team mascot and security guard vibing"

Yes, Reddit, it "MadeMeSmile".


"'Parentese' is truly a lingua franca, global study finds"

Kinda remarkable it seems to me.


"Sometimes when you change your perspective on your problems, they will resolve themselves . . ."

A fine illustration of the point. (40-second video.)

UPDATE: link added. (Thanks, Peter K. and David.)


"'I Believe in America': Fifty Years of 'The Godfather'"

Interesting piece on my favorite--along with G II--movie of all time.

Link courtesy of Michael G.


"The Best Way to Introduce Yourself to Someone You're Attracted To"

I'm way removed from needing this, but it seemed sensible to me if you're in the market for advice.
