Dealing with "tumultuous" economic times

Canadian Economics Superhero Larry Smith has a new article out, addressing burning economic question questions such as:

  • Why is Silicon Valley so shortsighted?
  • Why do so many people write iPhone apps and so few write medical software?
  • How to deal with a shortage of engineers.
  • Volume of information vs. value of information.

All great stuff as always. You should read it.
