The fallacy of Big Data. www.jamesrball.com/p/what-if-bi... was a good read but it's behind a paywall now.

I'm not saying the emperor has no clothes. I am saying his clothes are cheap, tacky, don't work and are seriously overrated.

But weirdly I'm a fan of "more pretty lights outside" in winter to beat away the otherwise dismal British winter experience. But not Christmas ones. I'm just confused :)

There was a podcast series I've forgotten the name of that looked at things we consider normal but were scandalous when invited (walkman, bikes, books, mirrors) and traced people pining for "the good old days" back to the ancient Romans...

I was thinking about Broken Veil just this week and wondering if you were planning on making more. Excellent news!

The internet is absolutely _terrible_ for recipes. Trusted sources, only.

I absolutely love seeing inside the sausage factory with the recording. Have you considered a video version, so we can see your exasperation at your own words, and Thanos causing chaos?
