Friday Links!
Leading off this week, From DQ Artist Fredrik Skarstedt, a fabulous, riveting read: The ‘Iron Dam’ that became China’s deadliest secret.
What a strange, fascinating story: He Announced His Intention to Die. The Dinner Invitations Rolled In.
A terrific read from back in 2013: The Oracle of Bay Street: finance bad boy Michael Wekerle is back, and his new firm is already the talk of Toronto.
This is absolutely fantastic: Vintage Bike Tricks, Circa 1965.
From Chris M., and I think in our lifetime we'll see the end of physical mail delivery in many countries: PostNord will deliver its final letter at the end of 2025: Here's what it means for you.
A fantastic, eccentric read: Are We Playing It All Wrong?
Terrific: Very British bribery: the whistleblower who exposed the UK’s dodgy arms deals with Saudi Arabia.
From Wally, and it's quite silly: There's Officially A Term Used To Insult AI, And You're Going To See It Everywhere. [AI] Using AI to animated hand-painted miniatures: AI & Wargaming - My Thoughts. Bizarre (Kramer!): China's unemployed young adults who are pretending to have jobs. Michael Chabon and a pitch meeting: Reed, Sue, Ben, Johnny & Me. Not my thing, but maybe yours: The 10 Best Sci-Fi Books With Space Battles. What a story: Meat Is Back at Eleven Madison Park, After 4 Vegan Years.
