That sounds interesting! How are you finding it?

It's the most well written biography I've ever read. It's less about Lyndon Johnson than it is about the US Senate and american history. The author spent decades doing research for the books (4 part series) and he won two Pulitzer prizes.

What are you reading right now? I'm currently reading The World as It Is by Ben Rhodes.

Took a look a that list and it's incredibly dumb. I'm from Italian descent and I saw the word "Italiano" in that list. Si, sono Italiano! Yes, I'm Italian! How the heck is that offensive? Abuse, adult, Allah, blind, fire, girls and so much more perfectly normal words in that "offensive" list... Really? That's incredibly stupid. And that's the problem when you let demented people decide what's good or bad language.

A cutline somewhere on the replies page to better indicate which ones haven't been read yet. I think any small emphasis would be a huge help :)

I've been suffering worse from depression. My hopes for my birthday -- a longish travel through South America -- have been blown away. I haven't been able to meet friends. An annual convention I founded won't meet physically. So, it's been tough. But I'm doing what I can to keep my spirits up.

What (if anything) do you listen to while you're programming, or doing work that requires a lot of concentration?

Ben Rhodes' "The World as It Is" should be mandatory reading. I've never been so illuminated to the ways of politics. The playing off of interests to get even the smallest thing done. So when people say "they haven't pledged to end all wars" it's like, yeah. Impossible, I'm afraid.

Do you know the feeling of sometimes feeling alone in the world despite family and friends? What do you do about it?

Wasn't there some Taleb essay about 4% of population being extremist enough to make whole nation extremist? Seems very intuitive if thought in context of network science. Explains why Twitter turned into pretty much private network of already well connected people.

won't a "like" feature kinda introduce public pressure?
