Astronaut training is, by design, a long campaign against surprise. A crew member preparing for the International Space Station will spend years rehearsing failures: depressurisation drills, emergency procedures, the operation of systems they hope never to need. The point of all that repetition is to make the extraordinary feel procedural, so that nothing in orbit arrives unrehearsed. And then there is the window. Astronauts return again and again to one experience that the training did not, and arguably could not, prepare them for. They look down at Earth, and something shifts in how they understand it. The accounts are consistent…

Sen. Elizabeth Warren is asking the Government Accountability Office to investigate whether the Trump administration’s staffing cuts at the U.S. Department of Education have hobbled the agency’s ability to stop fraud, waste, and abuse of federal student aid funds.Why It Matters: Federal Student Aid (FSA) is the office responsible for monitoring colleges that receive Title IV funds: the money that finances Pell Grants, federal student loans, and work-study. If oversight has weakened, taxpayers and students both pick up the tab when colleges misuse aid or misrepresent their programs to prospective enrollees. While there have been headlines about cracking down on ghost…

“Friendliness alone is not a sufficient reason to trust someone with your finances.”
Here’s something I’ve noticed: the loudest voices arguing against life insurance after financial independence almost always come from people who aren’t financially independent yet. They’re still grinding toward FIRE, optimizing every dollar, cutting costs to close the gap. Makes sense for them. But once you actually get there, the calculus changes. Every single person I know in real life who is FIRE, or has a net worth over $10 million, has life insurance. Not just life insurance either. They have car insurance, property insurance, personal property insurance, and an umbrella policy. The wealthier people get, the more they insure. That’s…
On August 4, 1972, U.S. military pilots flying south of Haiphong harbour in North Vietnam saw something they could not explain. The sea below them, by every account, was empty. No ships. No vessels of any kind moving through the water. And yet, as they watched, the ocean began to erupt. One after another, in quick succession, dozens of sea mines detonated — more than two dozen of them — exploding in open water with nothing there to set them off. It looked like an attack with no attacker. A minefield going off against an enemy that wasn’t there. The…
