Miscellany
"It is a profoundly erroneous truism, repeated by copybooks and by eminent people when they are making speeches, that we should cultivate the habit of thinking of what we are doing. The precise opposite is the case. Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking about them." -- Alfred North Whitehead
These days i am spending my time in Panama!
Ryze is my full-time focus, and great fun!
I'm interested in network and behavioral economics, history, finance, technology, nonlinearity, prediction...
On the personal side of things, I enjoy singing, karaoke, improv, swimming, walking, dancing and photography.
