I just watched this(stupid algorithm!) And it was worse than I thought it would be. If this were a paper submitted to me to grade.. it would fail for lack of historical accuracy. Avoid this video and visit the biography page here to learn more about Bonhoeffer:

I guess Tucker Carlson said something stupid about Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Ted Cruz chimed in soon followed by Metaxas...
Yeah.. I've had a good week, so I'm just going to ignore them and go to bed happy.

I gave a short paper today at a mini pop-up conference held by an online group I belong to. It was well received, and I got some great feedback. Now I guess I should finish it formally and try to get it published.

When 60 Minutes first heard about chess boxing, we thought it was a joke. It is not. Competitors alternate rounds of chess and boxing, and can win by knockout or by checkmate, whichever happens first. This Sunday, travel with us to the World Chess Boxing Championships.

Over the last few weeks, I have been very grateful for my brain. It allows me to do all kinds of neat things that are both new to me and stuff I have always enjoyed. There was a slight disruption in this relationship a few years ago, but today, all is good. Now off to play some chess and then piano!
