Wow. This is heartbreaking. Edin Avdić was an awesome guy with a big personality and contagious energy. Truly loved basketball. A great interviewer and commentator with his broadcast partner Nenad Kostić. We shared great meals during past NBA Finals. I’m gonna miss Edin. RIP.

Spoke with the fascinating @AnnieJacobsen about her new book "Nuclear War: A Scenario. Believe it or not, talking more about nuclear holocaust is a good thing.
Another light and airy Hardcore History Addendum for you all. Hope you like (?) it!

Hell yes it will be because I'm tired of it! I have Scandinavian gods living in my head now! It may be super long...but I'm finishing it (because I've got one I'm really looking forward to starting after the Aesir show is through).

OMG In the Penguin Random House/S&S antitrust trial it was revealed that out of 58,000 trade titles published per year, half of those titles sell fewer than one dozen books. LESS THAN ONE DOZEN.

People have more options than ever on how to spend their time. This variety of things to do alone is one of the reasons why reading time is in decline over the years.

Un estudio basado en las listas de "The New York Times" indica que los libros más vendidos tienen cada vez menos páginas, según Wordsrated, una organización estadounidense sin fines de lucro dedicada a descubrir datos relevantes sobre el mundo del libro y la edición 👇👇👇👇

[Sergio C. Fanjul @txepeligro]

Los libros más vendidos han perdido unas 50 páginas de media según un estudio de Wordsrated que tuvo en cuenta la lista de best sellers del New York Times durante 10 años. Lo cuento en la sección de Cultura de El País.

As attention spans shrink, books grow slimmer.

The average length of a NY Times bestseller has dropped by 51 pages (11.8%) since 2011.

Libros cada vez más breves. El análisis de best sellers USA última década muestra -12% extensión. En España igual: más títulos pero menos páginas. Causas vinculadas a hábitos consumo cultural + tb económicas. https://t.co/yhWOSjG4RN en Wordrated by @CurcicDimi via @DanielBenchi

The amount of people applauding players changing their salary into Bitcoin as if they were heroes has been comical.

Rams WR Odell Beckham Jr., at least in the moment, provides a cautionary tale.

Out of 75 @NBA seasons, only 11 times did we see a scoring champion also winning the championship in the same season. 6 of the 11 go to Michael Jordan. 3 out of the remained 5 came before 1950. That's a definition of dominance.
