The scary AI future is not Terminator where the AIs kill us or take our jobs. The scary future is one where AIs run all the bureaucracies, they can’t explain their decisions, and there is no appeal to humans.

John McCain
Who is John McCain? There are plenty of tributes today to this man after his passing last night. These tributes will explain what he did and how. However, I would suggest it is the “why” that is more important...

Some obits are reporting that John McCain was driven by “raw ambition.” In my experience he was driven by an inherited sense of honor and a ferocious love of country.

I get very nervous about mindless acceptance of the power of stories and storytelling. Storytelling is also a [very] dangerous weapon. A good story can lead people en masse to accept conclusions that fly in the face of incontrovertible hard data.

An ex-college pitcher coached a team for 12-year olds. He got tired of parents yelling at the kids for making outs, he made the dads take BP against him. He embarrassed them. “Now you know how hard this game is!” he said to the dads. “So stop yelling at the kids!” #bestofalltim

This should bother us, economically if not spiritually. Healthy economies need growing middle classes. New worldwide report on inequality shows how the U.S. compares - Not good. RBTL on populism. #politics #EconomicGrowth #Markets #income #wages #populism

140 characters wasn't enough for @Twitter. Sometimes in #flyfishing writing, 600 words isn't enough. Here are two examples: castingacross.com/fly-fishin…

Lamar Valley was so quiet on Sunday morning you could hear the bison chewing! Remember to keep at least 25 yards from all wildlife, and 100 yards from bears and wolves. #MondayMotivation

Catch & release started in the 1930's when fly angler & conservationist Lee Wulff said “Game fish are too valuable to be caught only once.”
