He was my thesis advisor too. His enthusiasm, energy, and never ending stream of ideas was infectious. He (along with Mark Allen) were huge influences on my life and career. I will miss him. Thank you for posting.

It's especially common in India. My kids call my female cousins "Ammayi" (... which means Aunt). I never understood this third cousin once removed nonsense.

Trader Joe's has this spiced chai latte powder. I mix it with hot water and some heavy cream. One time I just mixed it with the heavy cream and ate it all before the water boiled. If I ever kill someone and am on death row, that's what I'm requesting for my last meal.

What is the intention behind these resolutions? They seem like gotcha statements. What do you gain by playing?

And if Harris had won the pundits would have proclaimed it was a brilliant move for Biden to drop out with three months to go and a masterful strategy by the Democrats.

It's a stunning coincidence that Neptune and Jupiter had such a close conjunction just a couple of years into Galileo's observations.

I fell asleep watching this one and didn't bother to rewatch. I very much enjoyed episode 2, although I was disappointed the resolution was exactly the same as in the original series.

Any church that does so will have its tax exemption revoked because separation of church and state. Any church promoting Trump's successor will be fine because first amendment. Both arguments will be in Alito's majority opinion, maybe in the same paragraph.

Using sin(lat) is fine, but sin(lon) doesn't give enough information; you still need something for east and west hemispheres.

We could use complex notation (sin(lon), cos(lon)). If the government mandated that it wouldn't even be the third worst idea this week.

Or we could simply use the sine and cosine of the appropriate longitude bin which would be unambiguous.

I have many more such ideas if you would like to subscribe to my newsletter.

Hmmm, he only has immunity for crimes conducted as "official business". Crimes during his personal time are fair game.

If on one side you have "some say", and on the other you have "many people are saying", and some of those many people have tears in their eyes, well, I just won't know who to believe.

I did the same, rebalancing from 70/30 stocks/bonds to 30/70 stocks/bonds a couple of months ago (oh ... around the end of January or so).

I don't know what to do if Treasuries lose their value. Buying gold is a sign I've turned into a crackpot.

How about looking for his biggest campaign donors, and asking them if they still support a member of Congress who goes along with this nonsense?

Which will be the excuse to fire Jerome Powell and lead to the next market meltdown.
