When Was I Radicalized? (Boeing edition)
When Was I Radicalized? (Boeing edition) Dick Fuld never saw a courtroom, much less a jail cell. When was I radicalized?

Yeah, It’s Still Water
Yeah, It’s Still Water Back in April, I wrote This Is Water. There are these two young fish swimming along and they happen to meet an older fish swimming the other way, who nods at them and says “Morning, boys. How’s the water?” And the two young fish swim on for a bit, and then eventually […]
Ben Hunt: Prepare To Get Burned

But We Need the Eggs
But We Need the Eggs ALVY SINGER: This guy goes to a psychiatrist and says, “Doc, my brother’s crazy; he thinks he’s a chicken.” And the doctor says, “Well, why don’t you turn him in?” The guy says, “I would, but I need the eggs.” Well, I guess that’s pretty much how I feel about […]
Foundation and Empire

They know one rule; force. Maldistribution! They know one desire; to hold what is theirs. That quote is the narrative crux of Isaac Asimov’s […]
