In Which FT Alfalfaville Mines The Farm Implement Community For Comments (plus some snappy repartee)

The "Alfalfaville" moniker was Bryce Elder's creation in a-years-ago Market Live segment.

ML is dead and gone but Bryce is alive and kicking and among his picks for today's Further Reading post was "Farm vehicles are now heavier than most dinosaurs – here’s why that’s a problem" which has garnered fully ten of the twenty-four comments (at this time.)

Considerably more than the Paul Krugman inflation twitter thread or Erik Brynjolfsson's piece on AI at  Dædalus.

And the repartee?

Quite the category error to analogise low turn over quality growth investing to a series of coin flips. Expect more than vapid snark from the FT.

Ok, I’ll pay that.
