Today on The Gist, something none of us know anything about—porn. Mike Pesca is away, but Felix Salmon from Fusion and Piper Text (and, of course, Slate Money) will be your guide. First up, we explore the difference between art and pornography with Amy Adler from New York University. Does it have anything to do with the price tag? For the Spiel, what the July 8 glitches tell us about complex systems and illusory correlation.
