Link is fixed, sorry.
Covid Life In LA
Our experience has been quite similar to Virginia Postrel’s, and we feel very fortunate. I can’t imagine how terrible it must be to be cramped in an apartment with too many people, or what a nightmare this has been for parents with children. I haven’t seen divorce statistics for the year, but I’m sure they must be record level.

Space Solar Power
AFRL is planning to launch a demonstrator in a few years.

More from CleanTechnica.
The Space Show
David Livingston is having his year-end fundraiser, if you can help out.
RIP, Mary Ann
Dawn Wells was taken by Covid.
When it came to Gilligan’s Island, and WKRP, I was a Mary Ann and Bailey Quarters fan. I guess that Tina Louise is the only surviving cast member.

The Dunning-Kruger Effect
Despite its logical appeal, it may not be real.
Interesting.
Joe Biden’s Climate Idiocy
Mike Shellenberger fact checks it.
Happy New Year From Boston Dynamics
This is terrifying, or should be.
