I hosted my first meetup yesterday in San Francisco and had a great time. Thanks to all those who came. I’ll be doing another meetup in Austin with my good friend Chris Williamson, likely on June 9. Details to come.

Some recommendations:

• First They Killed My Father (2017). There aren’t many movies about the horrors of communism. This one is well worth watching.

• The Silver Waterfall. New book by my good friend Steven McGregor. Fascinating account of the Battle of Midway in World War II.

• Choose Enjoyment Over Pleasure by Arthur Brooks

• Piecing Atoms Back Together by Alex Kaschuta

• The Electronic Starfield by Gurwinder

• Data is Killing Our Intuition by Ruben Ugarte

I’ve finally finished my review of Sadly, Porn by Edward Teach (AKA The Last Psychiatrist). This fascinating and outrageous book took more than 12K words to discuss. The hardest book review I’ve written. Coming soon.
