O, limits! Epsilon and delta, you are like old friends to me. Let epsilon be greater than 0 -- please!

It seems Weinstein's pursuit was relentless as he tried to kill this story. What makes a reporter so devoted to an idea to put themselves in jeopardy this way? We owe such people thanks.

Architecturally interesting buildings as motivators of better behavior? Interesting.

Listening to the audio book. Within these first few minutes there have been references to Weinstein and Trump, of course.

Just nodding along through a section talking about how learning anything, including this material, is not necessarily made better by making it enjoyable. Not that everything difficult is effective, but generally the other way is likely true: to be effective, there has to be some difficulty.

Ch 3. Yeltsin out, Putin in. Putin saves Y's but w a faked sex tape disgracing the prosecutor and he's on his way to leading Russia. And stealing the largest oil co while jailing its leader. 'For my enemies, the law.'

I read this book earlier this year in the kindle format, but I thought I was getting the audiobook format! So I put a hold on the audiobook. My thought was it might be interesting to listen through it once, while commuting, but of course with the coronavirus there's no commuting right now! I'll have to see how it goes, listening to this book, but I think I'll get through it again to review some details of the story.

'The point wasn't whether or not I liked it; the point was it had to be done.'
It's an interesting aspect of a book that skips around in time while telling its story - it makes it more challenging to figure out when things will end.
