In this episode of Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, I'm giving my take (to the best of my ability—because I'm not a tariff expert and neither are most of the people chiming in right now) on Trump's gutsy new tariff move. It's the one that's got half the country cheering and the other half clutching their pearls. While the media yells “economic suicide,” I'm here to suggest that this strategy might actually work—but not overnight. We'll talk about the possibility of long-term gain, the reality of short-term discomfort, and the cultural obsession with instant results when what's often required is patience. I will also go over our collective short attention spans and why longer attention spans are needed for understanding complex issues like this. Every answer won't fit in a 15 second soundbite. At the end of the day, we'll have to pray, wait, and see. Some of the smartest plays take time to unfold.—https://noblegoldinvestments.com/learn/gold-and-silver-guide/?utm_campaign=21243613394&utm_source=g&utm_medium=cpc&utm_content=&utm_term=noble%20gold&seg_aprod=&ad_id=698073353663&oid=2&affid=1&utm_source=google&affiliate_source=googleads_brand_bmbc&utm_term=noble%20gold&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADQ2DzJSJ_mi5cJo8dO2FNUs7uNy-&gclid=CjwKCAjwktO_BhBrEiwAV70jXtjSCyioSM2Hz1McTAlR3f8t3KCDDN3-XBWLaIzwJmiEGe0ztxIk5RoCnM0QAvD_BwE

Periodic Water Table With James McDonald Now, Trace recently did a Pinks & Blues episode on Total Dissolved solids and conductivity. Let's see how much you remember. How do you define total dissolved solids or TDS? Are suspended solids included in this definition? What are examples of chemicals included? Are TDS and conductivity the same or different? How are they related? Is there one rule of thumb to convert from one to the other or can the conversion differ for different waters? How is TDS measured? How is this different from how suspended solids are measured? How does cycling up affect TDS in a water system? What might be the impact on TDS if a water system is over cycled or chemical feed is interrupted?

Crawling Out of the Basement for the first time in 2023 with The Accelerators, The Todd, and Birkenstock Beckta (now based on the set of Super Troopers, looking for Bernie's mittens). The ASTRO Workforce Taskforce paper, the final version, dropped last Wednesday. In terms of "ambitious projects", forecasting supply and demand is akin to eating not one but TWO elephants. We discuss almost exclusively the concept of supply, hiring consultants, and the folly of forecasting the past instead of just, you know, using data. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/radmed/support

Economist Peter Backus joins me in this episode to discuss a few interesting topics. You may recall Linhda and I previously discussed his paper "The Girlfriend Equation" on a recent mini-episode. We start by touching base on this fun paper and get a follow up on where Peter stands years after writing w.r.t. a successful romantic union. Additionally, we delve in to some fascinating economics topics. We touch on questions of the role models, for better or for worse, played a role in the ~2008 economic crash, statistics in economics and the difficulty of measurement, and some insightful discussion about the economics charities. Peter encourages listeners to be open to giving money to charities that are good at fundraising, and his arguement is a (for me) suprisingly insightful logic. Lastly, we have a teaser of some of Peter's upcoming work using unconventional data sources. For his benevolent recommendation, Peter recommended the book The Conquest of Happiness by Bertrand Russell, and for his self-serving recommendation, follow Peter on twitter at @Awesomnomics.
