News Of The Week
Welcome to the Books And Articles newsletter. Thanks to everyone who posted.
Books And Articles is benefitting from what I see as the increase in quality posts on SN generally. I hope this is because of its growing popularity in the bitcoin community. For our territory, I am very happy to see that @denlillaapan contributed a Top Post this week. For those who don’t know, he is a writer and editor with a financial background. His credits include editing two of the best bitcoin books ever written: Broken Money, by Lyn Alden, and Resistance Money, by Andrew M. Bailey, Bradley Rettler, and Craig Warmke. He is now posting his own writing on Stacker News. He has also edited some of @realBitcoinDog’s written work, another SN newcomer who has brought his talents and energy to SN.
Although he’s not new to Stacker News, I also have been incredibly impressed by the articles being written by @SimpleStacker in reviewing bitcoin economic papers. I have learned a lot from him over the past few weeks. His most recent article is once again this week’s Top Post, and I look forward to many more.
I also want to mention @gpvansat, who’s contributed chronicles of his travels through Africa, and @carlosfandango, who regularly contributes book reviews and prose essays. Both of these writers have had Top Posts this week.
Thanks to everyone who helps to make this space better.
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.

Siggy’s Suggestions
Stillstackin’s review of this TV series got me interested in Slow Horses, something I can watch while waiting for the next episode of The Penguin to get released.
I have to admit that all I knew about Nate Silver before reading this post is that he was “the poll guy.” I know. I’m embarrassed.
