i just had a very nice meal with richard portes and helene rey who are bros of thomas piketty and they had sum funy things 2 day about him
they said he was very pleased by the economist dubbing him a modern marx
o_O
that's not necessarily entirely complimentary, in any case
did they say anything about the hypothesis?
surrealitycheck
his analysis on past trends is almost entirely correct
his one-sector model is too simple and she would probably go into more detail and try and break down why exactly you can get this type of divergence. she thinks examination of rent-seeking behaviour of bodies with lots of capital is relevant etc
they both said they didnt want to judge his argument about the future because 2uncertain2tel
ok so prity mainstream eh. no support for the FT's rather weak attack on the data
that flavour of attack smells of a polite way to say "we think your model is completely wrong, or at least missing the phenomenon it purports to explain". which, to be fair, seems to be the case
yeah they regarded the attack as a joke simply because even if you throw away all that data or include it his fundamental argument is not altered one bit from the point of view of widening inequality
its pretty transparently just "we dont like the hypothesis so lets pore over the data until we find some inconsistencies and present them as real problems"
same thing happens in science all the time, its the best
u just find some study u dont like and shit on the methodology because theres always some flaw
I got home and consulted my archive (a shoebox of old comics I kept in middle school but never threw away) and, yes, Wonder Woman did indeed hold Thor's hammer. She also lost a fight to a gigantic-boobed Storm.
whoever told blonde white girls that they could sort of tinge part of their bangs pink and it would titillate men for reasons they don't fully understand relating to rebellion, the mainstream, notions of sexually adventurous people etc... those people were right

like when i see a girl with a tattoo- especially when it's not trivially horrible like barbed wire or a dude's name in sloppy black ink on their wrist- my mind undergoes a trillion immediate thoughts that i can't keep track of that amount to 'I BET I WOULD LIKE HAVING SEX WITH HER MORE THAN IF SHE DIDN'T HAVE THE TATTOO'
that is pretty weird, right
our brains are weird and our autonomic systems are bastards
so my buddy who's really into the theory of comp sci just sent me a link to a paper
about developing a programming language that works through natural language
like, you ask the language to do something and it does it, or promises to do so based on later linguistic transactions
it's based on a 1955 austin essay on language
Link?

So I got into a leadership thing at work. You do something called "Get what you want" where you write a 1 page proposal on anything really for the company to do and you can submit it to the CEO. A lot of them get done.
Mine is going to be increasing our retail pay by 33% ($3/hr) by 2016. I wonder if it'll get me fired. Works for CostCo though.
