A lot to unpack but it’s crazy how much we really on tools like polygraphs to determine if people are lying when in reality they fail often more times if someone just guessed because polygraphs don’t determine if someone is hiding deception but just show that someone is experiencing anxiety! What’s worse is they can used for totalitarianism cause it is legal to obtain confessions by false evidence!

Crazy to think that Florida home insurance companies even insure people in that state! Poe Financial Group tried to use typical business tactics like slashing prices but with peoples homes! And doing so resulted in them not existing anymore due to hurricanes decimating there funds! Makes me wonder how Republicans can think global warming isn’t real but expect the government to pay all of the damage from disasters!

Been reading this only at the library but it’s a very informative book about how mathematical problems can be found in just about everything and how the solutions can be used in places that have no correlation to each other. For instance epidemiologist use the same systems to track E. coli outbreaks in spinach that credit actuaries use to determine if a plumber is credit worthy.
