Mathew Yglesias
Mathew Yglesias gets some attention this week.
What makes Matt worth noting ?
He's mildly ingratiating, sometimes merely diplomatic; and he shows the education and writing ability to articulate the practical consensus of his readers.
On the downside, he moves is blog every six months, to the American Prospect, Tapped, Atlantic, to ThinkProgress; maybe he should just park it on Xanga.

Carried Interest
Carried Interest examines PIPE: private investment in public equity.
A PIPE is an alternative available to publicly traded companies that
need to raise money but don't want to go through the complexity
of selling shares through a secondary offering. Instead, the company
finds an investor and sells him a block of newly issued shares at an
agreed price or a block of debt which can later be converted into
shares (a structured PIPE).

Patrick Crozier
Patrick Crozier, more linker than thinker, points
to many good quotes.
In a comparison of a 1973 algebra textbook and a 1998
“contemporary mathematics” textbook, Williamson Evers
and Paul Clopton found a dramatic change in topics.
In the 1973 book, for example, the index for the letter “F”
included “factors, factoring, fallacies, finite decimal,
finite set, formulas, fractions, and functions.”
In the 1998 book, the index listed “families (in poverty data),
fast food nutrition data, fat in fast food, feasibility study,
feeding tours, ferris wheel, fish, fishing, flags, flight, floor plan,
flower beds, food, football, Ford Mustang, franchises, and
fund-raising carnival."

Philip Greenspun
Commercial software for the web was his first major writing topic,
but now aviation, travel, and standard of living.
software engineering jobs seem to be concentrated in parts of
the U.S. where the cost of living is very high, e.g., Silicon Valley,
Boston, and Washington, DC. Finally the methods of software
engineering haven't changed since either 1957 (if you program in an
imperative language such as C or Java) or 1970 (if you program in
SQL). This has made programmer careers more vulnerable to
offshoring than the careers of traditional engineers.
