Today I came across Cosma Shalizi's review of A New Kind of Science, and his page with 169 book reviews 1995-2018, I've read half a dozen so far, they're all great - he has a very attractive style. A wide range: science, politics, social science, history, philosophy, mathematics..
It has quite a few things I am currently really interested in. I've never been to Atlantic City but it always seemed like an extremely fascinating place with a lot of history. The pressure of the fading desire to gamble and climate change has serious impacts and this article was a great overview of the problems they are facing.

The author of the piece recently passed at the early age of 35 and he was such a good writer that I had to go and read this masterpiece once again.
If you can read Spanish please read the article. It's an incredibly good read.
Rest in peace, pinjed.
