Fan of Bayes’ Theorem
The qualitative framework is very interesting. Curious if there’s a quantitative framework to accompany. Bayes’ Theorem is a thing and been around forever. Much of AI uses Bayesian or similar techniques. Why can’t we teach humans to do the same? Not the math, per se, but what the math means?

Not many living American heroes, but Mark Kelly is one of them. And he was regardless of his service in the Senate.

But do you meet the “Duffy Code” for air travel?

Rutgers Bregman’s books are must read. He’s changed my mind on more than a few things.

Can’t ask people to mask up in a pandemic, but they can tell people what to wear on an airplane. 😑

You’re asking Americans to have an attention span longer than…what was I saying?

...and we're all MIGHTY grateful for that bit of cloth, no?

Rubles Rubio spent a lot of time on that plan. It didn’t translate itself, you know.

We jumped that shark a long time ago.

It all makes sense once you realize the US is a Russian vassal state.
