Stalin: The Kremlin Mountaineer – a most excellent little book
So – I stumbled across Stalin: The Kremlin Mountaineer on Amazon (it’s a Kindle single) and it’s the best book I’ve read on anything Russian, ever, and the first book in a number of years I’ve wished was longer. The single strangest thing I learned was that Collective Farming was inspired by a giant American farm somewhere in the upper Midwest.

My early Mr Robot prediction
I think the big reveal of the show will be that E-Corp/China has somehow conquered death, and people live forever in emulation. Angela will be revealed to be housing the emulation/image of her mom much like Elliot houses his dad. And somehow – being pushed out the window was the cover for implanting the software (or something like that).

I was perusing some of the Russian facebook ads and noticed that the click through rates are astronomical – pretty much all of them over 10%! I wonder if all facebook ads are that way.
