Assuming the USA recovers from its fascist trajectory, I hope the Americans focus on dismantling the techno-fascists like Thiel and Musk.

Wow, here we are, so soon. If you criticize Musk, the DOJ writes to threaten you. Congressman: I will not be silenced. They also are threatening Schumer.

This article draws the line from #Vance to #Theil to the racist pseudo-philosophical ramblings of Curtis #Yarvin (a.k.a. #Moldbug).
Terrible stuff. These people are truly dangerous. However the worst thing I learned from reading this was #Yarvin named his Thiel-funded startup using a #Borges reference. 😡

Calling #Theil's #inequality measure an "#entropy" irritated #AmartyaSen. From Amartya Sen's "#OnEconomicInequality" (#OEI) I learned a lot about #InequalityMeasures. But entropy seems not do go down too well with him (1973) and his co-author #JamesEricFoster (1997): When describing the "interesting" "#TheilEntropy" (chapter 2.11), Sen sees a contradiction between entropy being a measure of "#disorder" in #thermodynamics and entropy being a measure for "#equality".
