    Actually the 100 families that "control" the world do so because they are obscenely wealthy due to inherited wealth and familial connections. Some of them just happen to be Jewish, so there's no point in focussing on that fact.

    Look through this list and find how many of them have Jewish heritage.

  • It's been 30 years and I still can't get over the fact that the French word for "potatoes" is "ground apples." Have The French never had an apple?

    Sorry, I wasn't explaining myself well.

    Just because a story isn't factually true, doesn't mean that it has no value, or negative value. There are other types of values which can supersede factual value:

    • aesthetic
    • symbolic
    • ethical
    • didactic

    Truth isn't always about facts. Sometimes factual statements can be used as a weapon of deceit.

    It's almost like something happened in 2020 to cause a big spike. I wonder what that could have been, and if it is still the case.

    Ah, life is full of mysteries.

    IWTL how to Build an RF Amplifier

    I want to build / design an RF amplifier that can boost the signal from an [AMT-MW207 kit.](https://swling.com/blog/2022/08/the-amt-mw207-mini-am-radio-transmitter-kit/) Design goals: - Boost the signal a couple of watts - AM signal - 525 - 1605 kHz baseband range I've been searching for RF amplifier designs but many of them are too big (10's of Watts), or are hard to implement. It's been difficult trying to find something that can instruct me clearly. I'll have to take into account things like impedances and the like. I have an electronics background, so if you can only point me towards a book or other resource, even that would be helpful. I'm going to be checking out '[Experimental Methods in RF Design](https://www.amazon.com/Experimental-Methods-Design-ARRL-Inc/dp/087259923X)', hopefully it can point me in the right direction.

    Recommendation Request: Similar to Iron War

    I just finished listening to Iron War by Matt Fitzgerald. I loved the descriptions of the history of the event, the history of each of the racers, and their future after the race. It helped me feel amped for my own exercise sessions. Are there other books like this? Excluding Matt Fitzgerald's other books, of course.

    Maria Nattestad just dropped a new introduction to the field of bioinformatics. Foundation skills for bioinformatics: - Python - Use the Command Line (e.g. Bash, scripts) - Statistics - p-values, multiple hypothesis tests

    I've used Rosalind in the past to learn about bioinformatics. I solved about 17 of the problems, which is about 6% of the problems on the site. I think it gave a decent mix of guided learning and letting you figure things out on your own. I would say having some background knowledge in biology and coding would be necessary. It doesn't do a lot of hand holding, but there is some.
