The California High-Speed Boondoggle
This idiocy can’t end soon enough. Fortunately, even the state’s idiot electorate has finally seen the light.
Bootstrapping A Solar-System Civilization
Encouraging thoughts from David Brin on what he calls the “best year for space since the 70s.”
Carbon Dioxide
Matt Ridley: Its benefits could easily exceed its costs.
That seems likely to me.
Regulating Medical Devices
A new paper from Mercatus, citing me and the book. In fact, I used the FDA as another example of a risk-averse bureaucracy in the book.
