(PROGRESS: I’m working on the book when I have the mind for it and the software when I don’t. Programming is relaxing and much easier. Right now I’m extremely inspired and writing most of the time. Prior to the election I was working mostly on software. And it seems like this is the right balance for me. I do not feel ‘better’ but it’s pretty obvious that the courses of antibiotics have made a profound difference in curing me of whatever this horrible antagonist to my asthma has been for the past (near) year. I have been struggling to get out the first chapter – setting the stage- but its finally coming together with both the argument and voice I am looking for. And honestly it’s the hardest part of the book for me – other than maybe the challenge it will be writing down the formal methodology in Part 6. That’s possibly going to make me a bit crazier than usual. But it’s more like writing an instruction manual than telling a story so hopefully I can work through it a bit at a time. But Part 1 – that’s the overall narrative. And I finally feel like I know how to tell the story. And Im in the process of telling it. Will it matter to those of you who have followed me? I don’t know. In my view the problem of the information age and incrementally suppressing falsehood, is pretty simple now. The explanation of history as the battle between eugenic truth and dysgenic lies is pretty easy. And the suggestion that we can complete the indo-european project if we return to rule-for-fun-and-profit is even more interesting. But I suppose what most people want is a collection of all those little arguments that we must construct along the way. And I think the book will do that – very thoroughly. Assuming I have the juice to finish it now.)
