Weekend Fun

March 16, 2024

Not quite three minutes.

Q-Anon meets Arthur Laffer.



And Kara Swisher’s just-published Burn Book: A Tech Love Story.


“Nobody straddles the world of tech and media quite like Kara Swisher… This book isn’t just a juicy read, it’s also a valuable historical document, giving readers an inside look at the architects of some of the biggest tech moments of the last thirty years.” — TIME


Publisher’s tag line:  A witty, scathing, but fair accounting of the tech industry and its founders who wanted to change the world but broke it instead. 

A quick read or 6-hour listen at 1.2X speed.


(Oh, and by the way?  “Al Gore did invent the Internet.  Kind of.  His exact words were: ‘During my service in the United States Congress, I took the initiative in creating the Internet.’  Absolutely true,” writes Swisher, who goes on to explain.)



Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
