What you want from economic policy is constant chaotic day to day volatility combined with extreme complexity and opacity.
Just now in the Oval: Trump has signed action officially adjusting tariffs vs Canada/Mexico, saying all goods not compliant with USMCA will still see 25% tariffs (or 10% on energy).
WH official says roughly 50% of Mexican imports, 62% of Canadian imports are NOT compliant, so tariffs remain there.

One of my favorite artists has died... David Hockney.
This is my homage to his work... such pure, simple lines that bring so much complexity with them.

Why are some birdsongs simple and some extremely complex? The answer is long thought to be ‘sexual selection favouring complex signals’. But - really?

One of the greatest services intellectuals can perform for society is to simplify complexity while still preserving the value that complexity reveals.

Human history:
1. We invented gods to explain complexity
2. We invented markets to manage complexity
3. We invented algorithms to outsource complexity
And now no one knows who’s in charge.

There are only two bug classes left: complexity and memory safety.
CurveBall (CVE-2020-0601)? Complexity.
BigSig (CVE-2021-43527)? Memory safety.
Log4Shell (CVE-2021-44228)? Complexity.
BlueKeep (CVE-2019-0708)? Memory safety.
Heartbleed looks like memory safety, but it's actually complexity.
