Just finishing your book, "Cold War to Hot Peace" and glad to know you are in Italy without incident despite the harassment Russia has falsely imposed upon you. Enjoy the arts and culture!
Today I published the fallowing critique of your argument in support of the foreign policy of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Your Comments on this critique would be welcomed by me.
Substak:k Modeling a physical system without making any mistakes
just now
The Professor of Political science and former U.S. ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul is another supporter of the foreign policy of Biden and Harris. He expresses this support in the substack that he writes and that is entitled "McFaul's World.' In reviewing the argument that McFaul makes I have discovered it to be based the cognitive error of mistaking a "complex" physical system for a "non-complex" physical system in the construction of a model of this system, where a "complex" physical system exhibits one or more "emergent properties'', each of which is a property of the whole system and not of the separate partis of this system whereas a "non-complex" physical system exhibits no such properties. A university student learns to make this mistake in studying mathematical statistics and not the altternative to mathematical statistics that is called "entropy minimax pattern discovery." Circa 1986, the late theoretical physicist Ronald Christensen published the seven folume treatist on this topiic that was titled "The Entropy Minimax Sourcebook but it was evidently read by and acted upon by very fiew university professors.
You need to take some time off, even during a long period of crisis. I can’t relax in the US. I’m a Navy veteran, an Arabic linguist. That was over forty years ago but I was 17 when I enlisted. So it’s kind of baked in. I find myself combing through open source intelligence, talking with old friends who did what I did and analyzing whatever I find, but I have no one to report to. That’s kind of insane. I need to try to get out of the country soon, so I can unplug. Thank you for all you do.
I would absolutely do the same. Italy is ❤️⚡️.
Have a fabulous time!
Ciao!
Enjoy la dolce vita. You need it after the intensity of your recent work. Come back refreshed, ready to resume the fight.
