Isaacson and Lewis

It’s amusing to me that Walter Isaacson and Michael Lewis—who happened to go to the same elite private high school in New Orleans, just a few years apart—are finally having their oeuvres as favorable stenographers for the rich and powerful reassessed more or less simultaneously. Isaacson clearly met his match with Elon Musk, a deeply incurious abuser who gave Isaacson quite minimal access; Lewis does seem to be one of a handful of people who actually believed in that ethical altruism nonsense Sam Bankman-Fried was  cooking up. Good riddance, I say.
