[links] Link salad remembers eating lamb yesterday

SF Signal with the table of contents for The Year's Best Science Fiction #28 , edited by Gardner Dozois — By my rough count, 10 of the 33 titles are from online venues.

Review. EVAR. Googe Ngram...

Article: The Revision History of Democracy

maradydd has an interesting post here on the United States government, looking at it from something like a systems engineering approach: fault tolerance, bug reports, Byzantine generals, regulatory capture. Worth a read if you're interested in politics and/or systems engineering.

The Ground Is Too Hot To Touch

maradydd  posted a meme about where you were and what you were doing during every census, which for the U.S. is every ten years, including this one.  Now the Canadian census is every five years, and doesn't come around until next year, so I was torn between doing that one or the U.S. one, but since I'm blocked on the big NaNoWriMo summary post I'm working on (which is turning into me rereading...

boost the signal

Michigan just convicted Canadian scientist and author Dr. Peter Watts of a felony, for, as maradydd puts it, "not lying down and groveling fast enough." Whether or not you know anything about the case, regardless of whether or not you think you would agree with the conviction, I urge you to take 5 minutes or so and read her post on jury nullification. It was not something of which I was...
