We Are Not Saved is a podcast covering Eschatology. While this concept has traditionally been a religious one, and concerned with the end of creation, in this podcast that study has been broadened to include secular ways the world could end (so called x-risks) and also deepened to cover the potential end of nations, cultures and civilizations. The title is taken from the book of Jeremiah, Chapter 8, verse 20: The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not saved.© 2016 Ross W.

    Oct 6 2025

    The superior man uses his superior judgement to look superior on all the metrics.

    The Tyranny of Metrics

    By: Jerry Z. Muller
    Published: 2019
    248 Pages


    Briefly, what is this book about?

    The distorting effects of an over-reliance on metrics particularly when it comes to creating incentives.

    What's the author's angle?

    Muller was frustrated by the numerous metrics being imposed upon him in academia, frustrated enough to write a book about it.

    Who should read this book?

    If you’re in an environment where you feel like metrics are being overused and abused, this book can help you identify how that’s happening, and what you might be able to do about it.

    Specific thoughts: Bad metrics are everywhere, why isn’t this problem better known?

    Published: 2025
    288 Pages


    Briefly, what is this book about?

    The rise of China’s immense manufacturing prowess, where it comes from (a culture of engineering according to Want), and where it might be going.

    What's the author's angle?

    Wang has been putting out a well regarded annual letter on China for many years now. This is a distillation of his thoughts in book form. Also he has Chinese parents who often regret leaving China when they did.

    Who should read this book?

    If you’re at all interested in what’s happening with China you should absolutely read this book.

    Specific thoughts: Which theory of China is correct?
