Colonialism stamped out unimaginably awful native practices on a grand scale

One of the best examples of this was British rule in India ending sati, the process by which they burned widows alive, which led to one of the greatest quotes of all time, one that well sums up the Victorian mindset

When the Indians whined that burning widows was their national custom, Gen. Sir Charles Napier told them:

“Be it so. This burning of widows is your custom; prepare the funeral pile. But my nation has also a custom. When men burn women alive we hang them, and confiscate all their property My carpenters shall therefore erect gibbets on which to hang all concerned when the widow is consumed. Let us all act according to national customs.”

The genetic correlation between finishing a PhD and intelligence is lower than the genetic correlation between finishing earlier levels of higher education and intelligence.

The PhD ends up being more about gumption.

This is unusual:

A larger investor has been buying December gold call option spreads of $15,000/$20,000 on the Comex exchange.

This means gold prices would have to TRIPLE from current levels by late 2025 for the trade to expire in the money and pay off.

The trade can also profit from a sharp rally or a spike in gold volatility well before the expiration of these options.

The position started building after gold prices hit a record $5,600 in the last week of January.

Even after gold prices fell below $5,000, the buyer of these calls has continued to accumulate contracts, with open interest surging to ~11,000 contracts.

Someone is betting on a near-term violent move higher in gold.
