Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- US Dept of Ed opens Title IX investigation into Smith College for admitting transgenders. Never thought of this before because pretty sure males can take classes at Smith but could this put all their federal funds at risk?

- IPCC admits that apocalyptic climate scenarios are "improbable." Talk about an inconvenient truth.

- College football coaches throwing support behind 24-team CFP format.

- The "AI Job Apocalypse" is a Complete Fantasy. Long article but it make the point.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Texas Tech's QB Brendan Sorsby checks himself into rehab for a gambling addition. That thud you just heard was Sorsby's draft stock.

- Understanding the iron law of climate policy.

- The 2026 Kentucky Derby and gambling algorithms. Would be interesting if someone ran a comparison of how different AI's were able to predict races between say ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, etc.

- Kevin Kelly on our Uncertain Uncertainties.

- Interesting draft day story.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- The AI revolution is here. Will the economy survive the transition? Long but interesting read (especially if you can power through the AI nerd speak).

- Great medical tip. Hope I don't need to use it but forewarned is forearmed.

Carbon taxes are more problematic than they seem. If your eyes aren't glazed over yet - here's some taxes and accounting talk.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Matt Ridley: The great climate climbdown is finally here.

- New Harvard president faults faculty activism for chilling campus debate and free speech. Progress I guess but isn't Harvard's way of punishing a student is to give them a B instead of an A?

- The most important question of your life.

- Now I'm upset I did not watch this game. This was amazing. Instead I watched Iron Man II and Iron Man III as background as I read. Mea culpa!

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- The Paris Delusion: The touted achievements of global climate initiatives aren't rooted in reality. How dare they!

- UAB football player arrested after stabbing two teammates. This is a sad story all around.

- Tyler Cowen's best non-fiction books of 2025. Wish he'd rank them but as it is I added a couple in subjects that interest me.

- Court Filings allege Meta downplayed risks to children and misled children. Why anyone is on Meta (Facebook) is beyond me.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Back to Subic Bay... with Friends? From his lips to God's ears.

- Suspect in fatal Charlotte stabbing of Ukrainian refugee charged with federal crime. Good! Take it out of the hands of the judges that gave the killer a revolving door.

- DOE Climate Working Group RIP. Good - even if it was done with a legal loophole. Science and policy should be kept separate.

- American students score historic lows in science, math, and reading. Think funding students instead of schools could help reverse this.
