News Of The Week
Welcome to the Books And Articles newsletter. Thanks for all of the quality posts.
This has been another good week for the territory. @DarthCoin had the top post with a “copy/paste” of the book “The Basic Laws Of Human Stupidity”, by Carlo M. Cipolla. The book has proven to be very popular. Give it a read.
@cryotosensei posted the first movie review in the territory. Be sure to read his take on “How To Make Millions Before Grandma Dies” in the new Movie Reviews section.
@BTCLNAT gave us "My journey with Bitcoin: the experience of an ordinary Cuban." I have highlighted the post as a suggestion, and you can also now find it in the My Bitcoin Journey section.
We also have a new work of fiction, as @ginkgo posted the first “block” of And Then She Disappears. Spoiler alert: Satoshi is a woman.
As always, please reply with suggestions and opinions on how to make this territory better.

Top Five Posts Of The Week
Here are this week’s top posts:
Siggy’s Suggestions
We are fortunate to have people from throughout the world on Stacker News. This post gave me the opportunity to learn about Cuba, which has been somewhat of a mystery for people living in the U.S. This is @BTCLNAT’s “Bitcoin Journey” story. I hope it’s just the first of many posts as bitcoin takes hold in this isolated, authoritarian country.
Another post of original poetry by @Malachi17. I feel like I learn something from each of them.
This is the first block (chapter?) of an original work of fiction (?) by @ginkgo. I am looking forward to reading more as the tale unfolds weekly.
