Links for July

I'm going to try something new here: monthly link posts to archive things that I don't have anywhere else to post. To be clear, this is far from a comprehensive list, though in the future there will probably be more.

FiveThirtyEight releases their 2016 General Election Forecast.

Scott Alexander and ensuing discussion of poverty.

Washington Post: "Our friends are as similar to us genetically as you’d expect fourth cousins to be."

Libertarianism as Ten Questions Rather Than Ten Answers.

Bryan Caplan on his love for education, which closely mirrors my position on general education requirements.

Brookings Institution: Four questions to ask before breaking up the banks.

Horseshoe Theory in action: very similar articles from Vanity Fair and The Future Primaeval on community and social support networks.

My review of Henry Hazlitt's The Foundations of Morality, and my post on Asteroid Day.
