Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Consumer Price Inflation by type of goods or service (2000-2022).  Notice the more government involvement - the higher the price to the consumer.

- Webb telescope discovery so shocking astronomers thought it was a mistake - "let go of your expectations and be ready to be surprised." Much of what we think we know will later prove to be wrong.

- China goes all-in on Russian war effort. We send Ukraine tanks and China figures OK then we'll sell Russia weapons too. Where does the escalation end?

- Morgan Housel with a few short stories on "How It All Works"

James Webb Telescope

The James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) continues to provide amazing pictures of deep space. Above is what's called "the Pillars of Creation" but after seeing the JWST version I'd suggest renaming as "the Hand of God."
