It was supposed to begin tomorrow. We just got word from His Honor that it is in continuance, due to the fact that he is sick…
My guess is that it won’t be rescheduled until next year.
K-12
How lower ed prepares students to hate Jews in college.
Aliens
If they’re artificially intelligent, they may be stranger than we think.
A Blast From The Past
Someone asked me to sanitize some ancient comments on the blog today, and in the process of doing so, I perused some other posts from that era, and ran across this.
It wasn’t obvious at the time, but it was an historic post in this blog, because it led to all of my essays at The New Atlantis. I don’t know (or at least don’t remember) how Adam found out about it, but he contacted me to argue about/discuss the topic, and he ended up asking me for an essay, which resulted in this (not sure why it’s 404ing and I had to go the Wayback Machine, but I’ll tell the current editor about it).
When Will Starship Launch?
Speculation, over at Bob Zimmerman’s place. I make no predictions, but I obviously hope it’s sooner than later.
I’ve been at ASCEND in Vegas for the past three days, and tonight I have a red eye to DC to do final prep for the trial on Monday, so blogging will continue to be light.
Greta Thunberg
…is an anti-Semitic weasel.
Yes, I’m as shocked as you are.
Gramscian Damage
As Jim Treacher noted on X, a kaffeya on campus is just a hipster swastika.
[October 22nd update]
“We law students aren’t surprised by pro-Hamas campuses.”

“Palestinians”
There is no such thing.
Many of us have been saying this for decades.
Common Sense
I have to say, this is all great, but the apple is the best part.
Priorities
SpaceX says that progress is being held up by an understaffed FAA-AST.
It will be interesting to see what comes out of the hearing tomorrow. I’d head over to the Capitol to listen, but unfortunately, I have to focus on preparing for the upcoming trial.
