Walking through New Orleans

I’ve got a few hours to walk around before my flight. Walked from the hotel to the French Quarter, found bourbon Street, and made my way back to the French Quarter

I spoke with the lady serving coffee. She says New Orleans, and bourbon Street area in particular, is just getting worse and worse. She said she wants to move. Can’t stand the tourists.

And when you appreciate the type of tourist that comes to Bourbon Street, and the reasons for which they come, you can pretty much understand the sentiments.

She said an Uber driver was killed just off Bourbon Street the other week.

The coffee was very good at least

Bourbon Street feels like Vegas, only dirtier. And I didn’t think that was possible. Lol.

The architecture is beautiful. Aesthetically, it’s somewhat picturesque. It kind of feels like 1600s France. Except instead of cafés lining the streets, it’s bars and strip clubs. not my cup of tea.

They are literally cleaning the sidewalks. Apparently they do it at least every Thursday. Cleaning up the urine and vomit.

Rampant homelessness and mental illness on the streets. I saw a man smoking what I presume was crack or crystal meth.

All of the souvenir shops sell the same crap.

The locals I have met have been genuine, sweet souls. I love the deep southern accent.

Had a great po boy for breakfast.

I love the music. Captured this moment in front of cafe du monde.

But it is just two seedy for me. Self fulfilling prophecy when that is the selling point of the tourist attraction.

Going to find a quiet spot by the water, maybe do a video. Apparently, it’s bad news for the Ostrich Farm.

Summary of press conference

I watched the pipe bomber arrest press conference. I found it very unsatisfying. They basically said they’re not going to reveal any of the evidence for the time being, and except in accordance with the legal process.

Judge Pirro is the only one who gave the slightest indication of what the conclusive evidence was. Apparently they traced the sale/purchase of the pipe bomb cap and/or other materials to this individual.

Other than this clip, no evidence was provided during the press conference.

The Barnes Brief: Weekend of November 21, 2025

I.    INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

We the People. It stands out above all in the scribed parchment inside the glass-encased shield inside the Rotunda of Congress with three words bigger than the rest: We The People. Penned on a single sheet of animal skin by Jacob Shallus, it stands out as the Great Charter of American liberty, the profound experiment in self-government, and still stands today as the oldest and shortest written constitution of any major government in the world today. Those words stand out above the rest, written in flowing letters outsized to the text, to remind the world upon what power our government sits: We the People.

B. Wisdom of the Day

“Monopoly is a great enemy” and a “wretched spirit” which poses a greater threat to the free market than as it prevents free enterprise from self-defense. Adam Smith.

C. Cultural Recommendation

Ratification: The People Debate the Constitution tells the tale of what the true founders – the generation that birthed freedom on this continent – thought as they argued the merits of this new document. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7841680-ratification

The Barnes Brief: Wednesday, November 19, 2025

I. INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

One place where AI proves fun is its image generation capacity, whether for memes, dystopian dreams, otherworldly experiences, or translating photos and ideas into the templated work of famous painters. I asked it to convert this meme into a Hopper painting, and it turns out quite fun, as it blurs and blends the images into the spirit of the people and place, as Hopper so masterfully made so often. A Hush Hush of its own accord.

B. Wisdom of the Day

“AI is unfalsifiable and thus unscientific.” Erik Larson.

C. Cultural Recommendation

The Myth of Artificial Intelligence: Why Computers Can’t Think the Way We Do. The author, an AI researcher himself, explains why much of AI’s narrative is pure fiction.

The Barnes Brief: Weekend of November 14, 2025

I.   INTRODUCTION

A. Art of the Day

Working away in the hidden office, devouring intel and discovering information, to share with the world. My office looks like this, but replaced with digital feeds over the physical ones of yesteryear, processing the running feeds into recognizable patterns that can both explicate and forecast alike. To all the hidden offices uncovering what his hidden for the world.

B. Wisdom of the Day

“You will never understand bureaucracies until you understand that, for bureaucrats, procedure is everything and outcomes are nothing.” Thomas Sowell.

C. Cultural Recommendation

The Dark Side of H1B Visa exposed by a recipient, Raj Kuppa. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/25843858-the-dark-side-of-h1b-visa
