> The Possessed (2010), The Idiot (2017), and Either/Or (2022)

Whatever its other merits or demerits, reinstating the draft would cut back on needless wars. Abandoning the draft is what ended the anti-war movement, and to reinstate it would be to revive those protests. For this reason, if nothing else, it probably won't be reinstated.

Humans are social animals, so any mystery about another person is interesting, and wealth and fame multiply this.

Gptzero and Pangram both say this article was AI-generated. Seems we've forgotten how to do other things as well.

That's a great point which never occurred to me about Dijkstra, even though I knew where he came from. My father in law used to like this joke: "He was Dutch and behaved as such."
