The New Neo Posted on September 21, 2017 by neoSeptember 21, 2017

The terrible earthquake that occurred on September 19 in Mexico brings to mind the one that happened exactly 32 years—to the day—earlier. The 1985 earthquake had a large death toll, variously estimated to have been between 5,000 and 10,000 people, … Continue reading →

Intelligence, heredity, and environment

The New Neo Posted on September 16, 2017 by neoSeptember 16, 2017

Irma

The New Neo Posted on September 8, 2017 by neoSeptember 8, 2017

Harvey and anthropogenic climate change

The New Neo Posted on August 29, 2017 by neoAugust 29, 2017

AGW is the gift that keeps on giving. Its supposed effects are protean enough that almost anything can be blamed on it. Both its adherents and its critics are often tremendously fervent, and I’m not going to go into that … Continue reading →

The ancient history of math: Plimpton 322

The New Neo Posted on August 24, 2017 by neoAugust 24, 2017
