Inspiration
This used to be Duncan’s personal blog. Nuño Sempere, a super-forecaster who taught us both at ESPR, once commented:
We discovered writing together made us both more productive, engaging and original. The tangential ideas we’d have while drafting one piece would often fill a separate document.
At Model Thinking, we want to provide a quantitative lens for viewing the world and perhaps, also, respond to Nuño’s critique.
