Yes. Read that excellent book. Presents a totally different picture than what one would gather from watching the daily news, listening to politicians, the handwringers, and others pushing an opposite story.
How does the book "factfulness" contribute to the modern political dialogue?
The book "factfulness" by Hans Rosling, a Swedish doctor and statistician, aims to debunk common myths about the world and promote a more fact-based worldview. It has been praised by reviewers for its clear, concise writing and its ability to make complex topics accessible to a wide audience.
What are the most glaring flaws in the book "factfulness"
The book "factfulness" has been praised by reviewers for its clear, concise writing and its ability to make complex topics accessible to a wide audience. However, it has also been criticized for its lack of rigor and its tendency to oversimplify complex issues.
What are some examples of the critiques?
Some reviewers have argued that the book paints an overly rosy picture of the world and glosses over the many challenges that still exist. Others have criticized the book for its lack of statistical rigor and its tendency to cherry-pick data in order to support its arguments.
Would you say that the book is a credible reference?
While the book does have its flaws, I would say that it is generally a credible reference. It is well-written and its arguments are supported by data. However, it is important to keep in mind that the book does have a tendency to oversimplify complex issues.
Vinny 1. GPT 0.
Stay tuned.

CBDC are scary along with the complete control of all economic transaction by a central planner. Not good at all.

Desaniis may be a temporary countervailing force to the click hungry GPT3 machine. But I’m sure he comes with his own baggage.

In what ways? Came across as quite fair and balanced to me.
