Google Reader alternative for Emacs Ninjas: So the Mayans were
almost right, the world is going to end in 2013, the year when
Google reader will be decommissioned. Everyone is looking for ways
of averting the catastrophe - I've even voted in one or two
petitions. This guy proposes using Emacs. Hey, might give it a go,
doing everything else on Emacs so why not?
The Real Reason No One's Buying PCs Anymore: They've Gotten Too Good: Everyone and their dog was amazed at Microsoft's numbers for
Windows 8 and for the PC industry in general. This is one take on
the decline. Personally I think phones and tablets did it, but what

The Creator: Article on the mine-craft guy. Really interesting.
Behavioral Finance Explains Bubbles: Pretty much everyone is
convinced that regular economics has failed; its good to see that
more attention is being paid to interesting offshoots such as
behavioural economics. These guys start with how people actually
behave rather than how they ought to behave, so their models have a
fighting chance.
The Bitcoin Bubble and the Future of Currency: Everyone has written
an article or two on Bitcoin of late. This is yet another one, with
an intro and an explanation on why it will never catch on. Some
interesting points, despite shortsightedness.

Take Shelter: In this crazy world of ours, this guy is increasingly
starting to make sense. Reminds me of that famous scene in the
Network.
