Weekend Reading

- The Anosognosic’s Dilemma: Something’s Wrong but You’ll Never Know What It Is – This NY Times article explains that sometimes people are indeed so dumb, they don’t realize it. This explains so much about the world.
- My Four-Year-Old Son Plays Grand Theft Auto – This didn’t go where I thought it would at all. If you know anyone who is obsessed with the whole notion of violent video games making kids violent, send them this article. It will promptly shut them up.
- Buzz Aldrin Is Not All That Impressed With Walking on the Moon – I have no idea why Buzz is suddenly relevant again, but this interview with him is pretty interesting.
- Portugal legalizes drugs, Crime/Usage falls – This is actually a video that doesn’t really deserve its own post. Its a three minute clip from the BBC about what happened when a government quit worry about people doing drugs and focused on more important matters.
- How a broker spent $520m in a drunken stupor and moved the global oil price – This is related to the first bullet item. I’m not certain about how stuff like this is always happening, but I have some theories.
