This is the bi-weekly visible open thread. There are hidden threads every few days here. Post about anything you want, ask random questions, whatever. Also:

1. Happy new year! And thanks to everyone who read, contributed to, and supported this blog during 2016.

2. I’ll be in Irvine, California early next week. If anyone there wants to meet, I can make the Peet’s Coffee at 4213 Campus Dr, 7:00 PM on January 4th. Don’t expect many posts during that time.

3. I’ve updated the Mistakes page with a few new mistakes and metamistakes.

4. I know that raikoth.net is down. I think I am going to let it disappear quietly. It was poorly organized and too linked to my real name. I’ll repost the non-libertarian FAQ and other interesting stuff here sometime soon. Thanks to everyone who pointed this out to me.
