aving made that point, name-dropping and vastly praising the firm’s key partners, he then helped himself to a chair in Conway’s meeting and, for both Conway’s and her visitor’s benefit, offered a stirring testimonial to the uniqueness and sagacity of Donald Trump and the working-class people—speaking of w

Jared, Ivanka, Hope Hicks, and an increasingly ambivalent Dina Powell and Gary Cohn on one side, and almost everyone else, including Priebus, Spicer, Conway, and most clearly Bannon, on the other—were most distinguished by their culpability in or distance from the Comey-Mueller calamity. It was, as the no

etainers looking to save their own skins, the staffers who Trump had rewarded with the back of his hand— it all threatened, in Bannon’s view, to make Shakespeare look like Dr. Seuss. Everyone waited for the dominoes to fall, and to see how the president, in his fury, might react and change the game again. 7

t function a little like simple animals, generating all manner of complex shapes and behaviors. The inspiration for this approach is almost certainly Conway’s Game of Life developed by John Conway in the 1960’s. In his computer game, animals and machines seem to appear on the screen but in truth they deri

Can a monkey, or perhaps some form of computerized random number generator, accidentally type out the script for Shakespeare's Hamlet or write Tolstoy’s War and Peace? Is knowledge generation simply a numbers game? Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace is generally assumed to be the
