@adamlebor @TheTimesBooks @HoZ_Books @public_affairs @GeorginaCapel @InstituteDanube I have been interested in this subject for decades. Last Days in Budapest is an incredible work of scholarship on this time and place that pulls together many disparate sources and narratives. Also a very good yarn. Bravo @adamlebor (whom I have never met!)

@LissaBjerkelund @siklos He did not. He finished 13th out of 16, but he beat Jacob Estrin, the reigning world champion! Thus becoming the only Canadian ever to defeat a sitting World Chess Champion title holder. Estrin not that long before played in “the greatest chess match ever” https://t.co/IA4V2B0VfY

Remembering our father today. A remarkable life story - successful businessman and a world class chess player. Also a great guy! @siklos

@acoyne You guys put the hype in hypothermia, that is for sure!

So how long do we think we can go on without seeing a barber or a hairdresser?

Companies that export are more resilient, grow faster, and create more good quality jobs here in Canada. Looking forward to working with the @exportdevcanada to help Canadian companies grow globally. #SME #CdnPoli

So this is pretty interesting...

Fraction of all US wealth owned by Boomers & Gen-Xers when the average member of each was age 35:

Boomers, 1989 21%
GenX, 2008 8%

The average Millennial turns 35 in 2023. Right now they own 3%.

There will surely be political implications.

On April 6, 1964, at the CNR Recreational Association Chess Club in Montreal, an exhibition was held featuring 28-year-old Alex Siklos playing 17 club members simultaneously. Three hours later, Alex had won all 17 games. Remembering him on what would have been his 84th birthday.

and how depressing and sobering it is to learn that, for all the wonderful things Daunt has done with Waterstones, the business still can’t really both make a reasonable profit and pay a living wage... /3

[Eugene Siklos @esiklos]

So, moving some things I used to do on FB here to twitter ... I had no idea that Daunt ran Waterstones! I know and love Daunt Books (the Marylebone store, we have about 5 of their awesome cloth book bags in my house)... /1

This story has it all – why passion matters, how industries lose sight of customers , how imbalance in channel relationships can destroy your business, why you have to define yourself by a standard you determine (and not one that behemoth competitors force you into)… /2
