And that’s not to mention that Qatar is one of 10 countries where homosexuality may…

  • The 2022 FIDE Candidates tournament is being played right now with the winner facing Magnus Carlsen for a chance to become the world champion (or maybe not). Either way, the winner of this tournament will secure a spot in the World Championship Match (and possible the runner-up, if Magnus decides not to play).  The tournament…

  • Here is a link to the talk on Data Art that I gave at the University of Oregon.   Cheers.

  • Joe Rogan issued an apology about the whole Neil Young/Spotify/Covid Misinformation kerfuffle.  And since I know the world is dying to know what I think about the whole thing, I have written down some thoughts about apology. If you are living under a rock, you can read about the whole slap fight here.  Basically, Neil…

  • There is a crazy scenario this week where the Jaguars (somehow) beat the Colts and then the the Raiders and Chargers could both make the playoffs with a tie on Sunday night football.  I for one want to see 60 minutes of kneel down, kneel down, kneel down, punt.  I would watch every second. I…

  • To whom it may concern: Recently it has come to my attention that Justin McCarthy, an East Longmeadow resident, has filed a petition the the Town Council that has 160 signatories (or just over 1.25% of registered EL voters) “demanding an end to the defunct Health Board’s mask mandate”. Justin lays out his arguments in…
