Friday assorted links
2. Yuen Yuen Ang on adaptive political economy.
3. A resurgence of folk deities in Taiwan? (NYT)
4. Benjamin Yeoh podcast with Henry Oliver on late bloomers. And a Tweet: “Khomeini was a such a strange man in his time. He didn’t get involved in politics until he was 61, & didn’t run a revolution until he was 76. By contrast Lenin was 47, Hitler 34, Ataturk 38, Mao 34, Mussolini 39, Ho Chi Minh 55, & Gaddafi 27 when they launched their revolutions.”
5. Soumaya Keynes on work from home: “Whereas men devote a higher share of the time that they save from commuting into childcare and outdoor exercise, women plough more of their saved time into household chores.” (FT)
6. The modern Manhattan project?: “Meta spent almost as much as the Manhattan Project on GPUs in today’s dollars.”
