• The Rise of Phantom Investments Empty corporate shells in tax havens undermine tax collection in advanced, emerging market, an
  According to official statistics, Luxembourg, a country of 600,000 people, hosts as much foreign direct investment (FDI) as the United States and much more than China. Luxembourg’s $4 trillion in FDI comes out to $6.6 million a person. FDI of this size hardly reflects brick-and-mortar investments in the minuscule Luxembourg economy. So is something amiss with official statistics or is something else at play?

• THE VICE GUIDE TO GETTING BEATEN UP
  Don’t be a victim. If some huge fucking Coke machine of a guy tries to attack you, grab his right arm with the forefinger of your left hand, then twist it behind his back and kick in the back of his knees from behind. If he has a knife, use your elbows as side fists and smash his temples at 45 degrees until his pupils dilate. If he gets you into some kind of a headlock, then sit down on one knee so that he’s forced to sit on your lap and then implode his kidneys using the heel of your left palm against your right forearm… blah blah “nose bone into his brain” yadda yadda yadda. Yeah, right. If a huge fucking Coke machine of a guy tries to attack you, that’s it. You’re dead.

• Thesis #14: Complex societies are subject to diminishing returns. (The Anthropik Network)
  
  Joseph Tainter's 1988 The Collapse of Complex Societies remains the definitive work in the field of collapse. Tainter reviews other explanations of collapse--including economics, invasion and environmental problems--and finds them all insufficient. While these factors certainly play their roles, these are also the very same stressors that complexity is supposed to deal with. Thus,

• This Deep Sea Fisherman Posts His Discoveries on Twitter and OH MY GOD KILL IT WITH FIRE
  The English-language site Moscow Times posted a handful of the photos, but I’ve found even more on Fedortsov’s Twitter. The fisherman is reportedly based in Murmansk, which is a real place in Russia, and not another planet where Hell has opened up and set demons free to roam the land and the seas.

• TIM HARFORD The Poker Machine
  Bluff, deception and mind-reading are unpromising subjects for a mathematician to study, but if anyone could do it, it was von Neumann. His biographer, William Poundstone, says his ostentatious feats of calculation were notorious. At Princeton after the war - where he arguably outshone his campus colleague, Albert Einstein - von Neumann helped to design the fastest computer in the world, then demonstrated that he was faster. Nobody was surprised. His colleagues joked that he was a demigod who, having studied humans intensively, was able to imitate them perfectly. To tackle poker, von Neumann had to break new ground. There had long been analyses of games of chance using probability theory. Then there are games such as chess, which are strictly logical - albe

• Time and symmetry in models of economic markets Lee Smolin (Submitted on 25 Feb 2009)
  These notes discuss several topics in neoclassical economics and alternatives, with an aim of reviewing fundamental issues in modeling economic markets. I start with a brief, non-rigorous summary of the basic Arrow-Debreu model of general equilibrium, as well as its extensions to include time and contingency. I then argue that symmetries due to similarly endowed individuals and similar products are generically broken by the constraints of scarcity, leading to the existence of multiple equilibria. This is followed by an evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the model generally. Several of the weaknesses are concerned with the treatments of time and contingency. To address these we discuss a class of agent based models. Another set of issues has to do

• TIME WITHOUT END: PHYSICS AND BIOLOGY IN AN OPEN UNIVERSE (*)
  Freeman J. Dyson Institute for Advanced Studies, Princeton New Jersey 08540 Reviews of Modern Physics, Vol. 51, No. 3, July 1979 (c) 1979 American Physical Society Quantitative estimates are derived for three classes of phenomena that may occur in an open cosmological model of Friedmann type. (1) Normal physical processes taking place with very long time-scales. (2) Biological processes that will result if life adapts itself to low ambient temperatures according to a postulated scaling law. (3) Communication by radio between life forms existing in different parts of the universe. The general conlusion of the analysis is that an open universe need not evolve into a state of permanent quiescence. Life and communication can continue for ever, utilizing a finit

• Trailhead |E. O. Wilson | The New Yorker
  The Trailhead Queen was dead. At first, there was no overt sign that her long life was ending: no fever, no spasms, no farewells. She simply sat on the floor of the royal chamber and died. As in life, her body was prone and immobile, her legs and antennae relaxed. Her stillness alone failed to give warning to her daughters that a catastrophe had occurred for all of them. She lay there, in fact, as though nothing had happened. She had become a perfect statue of herself.
