What the Redacted Affidavit Didn't Say
There is a fairly new tool in criminology called geographic profiling. It was pioneered in Canada in 1989 and has become an increasingly popular tool in criminology. The overarching concept of geographic profiling is taking a look at the locations of a string of crimes to determine the likely residence of a criminal. While researching a novel about a decade ago, I added a new wrinkle that I called "the black hole effect". As the retired FBI agent explained it, it's the absence of evidence in a locality that could prove illuminating. Criminals such as serial killers and k... read more

The Energy Price Rise Silence
As promised, Ofgem raised the energy price cap again. From the start of October gas and electricity will have standing daily charges of 28p and 46p respectively. This is up from 3.6p and 14p before prices started galloping away. Per kilowatt hour, that will be 15p and 52p. The average household bill's increasing from £1,971 to £3,549. This is nothing less than a catastrophe. People are going to die while millions face destitution, and tens of thousands of small and medium-sized businesses are going to close.

Indian Workers Defend Their Steel With Their LivesThe virus of deindustrialisation that beset North America and Europe in the 1970s created a field of scholarly literature on post-work and post-industrial society. These writings led to the curious assumption that the digital economy would be the primary motor of capital accumulation; there was marginal interest in the fact that even the digital economy needed infrastructure, including satellites and undersea cables as well as plants to generate electricity and gadgets to link to the digital highways. This digital economy is grounded in a range of metals and minerals – from copper... read more

"Confessions of a Marine Corps sensitivity trainer"
Courtesy of Martin van Creveld's blog, I discovered an article with that title published in 2000. It made me laugh out loud, both for the incongruity of its title (after all, the Marines are known for breaking things and killing people, neither of which requires exceptional sensitivity!) and for its humor. Here's an excerpt. Back then, there was racial tension. Lots of racial tension. So the Marine Corps decided that everyone should have Human Relations (HumRel) instruction, 20 hours worth, spread over five mornings. Unfortunately, I was hanging around the battery office, lo... read more

Why the redacted affidavit for the search of Trump’s home is so concerning
Former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. | Charles Trainor Jr./Miami Herald/Tribune News Service via Getty Images The newly released affidavit sheds light on the classified documents at the center of Trump’s growing legal problems. The Department of Justice released an affidavit Friday that is central to the FBI’s search of President Donald J. Trump’s Florida home in Mar-a-Lago. As expected, the document is heavily redacted. Or, rather, almost entirely redacted, after the DOJ asked the judge to conceal any parts of it that would hinder its investi... read more

This giant laser can simulate a planet’s core
Understanding the innards of exoplanets could help the search for alien life. As astronomers search for life outside our solar system, they have to try and answer one big question: What’s the recipe for a habitable planet? We tend to think about the ingredients we encounter every day: liquid water, the protective blanket of the atmosphere, a sun that is neither too warm nor too hot. But there are other factors that are probably equally important: Earth’s cooled and hardened crust, its gooey molten guts, its magnetic field, its volcanoes and deep sea vents. These are the features ... read more

Tall trees, but also The Elegant Universe!*FRIDAY, AUGUST 26, 2022* *Short trip with a lifelong friend:* Even after all these years, we still score it as a bizarrely flawed, and therefore as a fascinating, paragraph. The paragraph comes from Brian Greene's The Elegant Universe: Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory (1999). In 2003, the book became a three-part PBS series. Early in the book, before he gets to ultimate theories, Greene offers an overview of Einstein's work on relativity.

Biden's failed PresidencyGlenn Reynolds: ... As Time magazine reported shortly after the 2020 election, a “cabal” — Time’s word — of “left-wing activists and business titans” worked to get rid of Trump. It pushed mail-in voting. It moved to block election fraud suits brought by Trump and supporters. It employed social media censorship to mute pro-Trump arguments and amplify anti-Trump arguments. It sponsored protests. Time calls this a “conspiracy to save the election,” but in truth it was a conspiracy to save the election for the Democrats. The consequences in terms of lost faith in democracy have be... read more
