What's the value proposition of immersing ourselves in the real world?

Longtime correspondent Buck V. recently reminded me of a timeless quote from Yogi Berra: "You can observe a lot just by watching." Buck added: With the corollary being "you can hear a lot just by listening.") Having completed a 5,200 mile camping trip around the American West, I had a chance to "observe a lot just by watching" and "hear a lot just by listening."

L'or et l'argent sont deux métaux précieux aux côtés du platine et du palladium. Leur histoire remonte à la nuit des temps. De bijoux, ornements et orfèvrerie, ils ont joué également plus tard un rôle de monnaie que ce soit en lingots ou en pièces.

Introduction: The $6.3 Billion Binance Hack

The world's largest cryptocurrency exchange just suffered what may be the single largest heist in financial history. Early reports point to a staggering $6.3 billion in losses, and the fallout is still being tallied.

Binance insists it will "cover all losses" and that user funds are safe . The self-insurance works this time only because the stolen sum, however colossal, represents less than 5% of the exchange's total assets.

On his latest podcast, Peter runs through a wide range of topics, starting with the Federal Reserve's confused approach to interest rates and inflation. He then pivots to Brazil's election and what it reveals about the false promises of democratic socialism, before turning to domestic politics and the hollow nature of Republican tax cuts that come without spending cuts.
