Friday Links!
Leading off this week, from Wallace, a thoughtful and fascinating article: Survivorship Bias. It's brilliant.From The Edwin Garcia Links Machine, and this is oh so beautiful, it's Tokyo City Symphony. Also, and these are beautiful as well, it's RGB Murals that Transform under Different Colored Lights. Next, and this is entirely remarkable, it's Rare Photos of the Statue of Liberty Being Built in 1883. Next, and this is crazy, it's Mine-seeking dolphins make historic discovery. Also, and this is an article about a documentary (and a subject we've discussed before): Ghost Army: The Inflatable Tanks That Fooled Hitler. Okay, last one, and it's Disney's vision of Mars in 1954.
