My neighbor told me the Middle East keeps eating his carrier groups so I asked how many carrier groups he has he said he just goes to PACOM and gets a new carrier group afterwards so I said it sounds like he's just feeding carrier groups to the Middle East and then Pete Hegseth started crying.

in terms of music since the 1950s, I'd say there are some genres that were huge but have disappeared from public awareness: - opera-style mainstream music (Al Martino, Mario Lanza, David Whitfield) - pre-rock'n'roll childlike novelty songs - skiffle - easy listening (not big-voiced crooners)

As bad as 2026 has been geopolitically I'm increasingly of the opinion that that 2027 could easily be worse.

This is my favourite Cambridge story: Four and a half years into World War II, a German Dornier Do 217 M-1 bomber made a perfect wheels-up landing in allotments in central Cambridge. The aircraft was fully laden with 860 bombs and a full tank of fuel ...

Let’s raise the price level and constrict supply with tariffs, then give everyone a big whack of cash so that they can attempt to restore their purchasing power. What could go wrong? <reposted to remove typo>

Fun fact, investors lost more money on the Austrian century bond than on the Argentine century bond, despite the latter going into default just three years after being issued. www.ft.com/content/1893...

I am not familiar with American norms, but you have a few free humanities electives in the 3-year* Quebec engineering program. I took the history of mathematics (and international relations). There were also a few non-technical required courses (“impact of technology”, written communication).

This might be an American thing. I guess the local equivalent is not having heard of Angine de Poitrine. (I’ve heard of them, not too familiar with the music.)
