On the latest episode of Behind the Money, the @FT’s @ollie gives us 19th century American history, Woody Guthrie, and …. geometry! Don’t miss 🎧: link.chtbl.com/ftbehind-the-m…
For my part: “Seven Games” by Oliver Roeder, in which he breaks down seven ubiquitous board games, the poetry/philosophy behind them, and how they've each been deconstructed by computers. Awesome read, especially with the slow reveal that the author is an absolute gaming sicko
Bought this mainly for the chapters on chess and poker; ended up enjoying all the games @ollie dives into. His passion for each of them is evident on every page. #poker #scrabble #go #chess #backgammon #checkers #bridge #playmoregames
Excited to share one of my photos is going to be featured on a U.S. postage stamp, part of a series called “Carnival Nights” that the @USPS is releasing in June. My image is of a ferris wheel at night on the midway of the @IowaStateFair. Now my photos are first class (dad joke).

@ollie So much to unpack here, not least the weird way the US financed infrastructure .
Fascinating account by @ollie of a private company seeking de facto enclosure of US public land which is "corner locked". Stemming from 1862 Pacific Railway Act.

For my part: “Seven Games” by Oliver Roeder, in which he breaks down seven ubiquitous board games, the poetry/philosophy behind them, and how they've each been deconstructed by computers. Awesome read, especially with the slow reveal that the author is an absolute gaming sicko
