  • Day 279 – Aggregates


    ,

    Today’s post is short. After a meeting of the Classical Liberal Organization tonight in which a few people confused this, I feel the need to say something about this: Aggregates don’t act.

  • Day 278 – Central Hall Clock Tower


    ,

    I got to go in the clock tower of Central Hall today! What a cool place! The webcams up there had smudges on the lenses, so I volunteered to go up to clean them for ITS. The journey up the various ladders and the rough hand-hewn stairs is a long one, but definitely worth it.…

    Today is the birthday of the great Austrian economist, Ludwig von Mises. Read reflections on Mises at ThinkMarkets and The Austrian Economists.
