Nicolas Prost is Alain Prost's son (and Alain is visible in some of the shots cheering on his son from the garage).

Here's Alain de Botton in a 24m video on Epicurus and Happiness.

I love Alain de Botton and what he's trying to do by inspiring a type of secular Renaissance in traditions, religious activities and culture.

Most supporters of the FN today are blue collar, and it's not surprise that one of their 'thinkers', Alain Soral came from the far left - they're pretty similar.

The big problem I see is that planning does in a lot of ways remove the essence of travelling (see The Art Of Travel by Alain De Botton).

I think what Alain is saying is you don't know how somebody is until you have worked a significant period of time with them, including stressful times where things went wrong (my own benchmark of whether someone is trustworthy is pretty much how they behave in such times - agreeing with your experience).

I particularly miss (in no particular order!) Alain Colmeraurer, John MacCarthy, Guy Steele, Alan Kay, Niklaus Wirth, Luca Cardelli, Barbara Liskov, David Parnas, Ole-Johann Dahl, Kristen Nygaard, Tony Hoare, etc.

For example, "Alain Badiou Is Making a Movie About Plato with Brad Pitt and Sean Connery" from 7 days ago is a movie about a guy.

The "founder" of this is Alain de Botton.

Je me souviens que c'est le colonel Gaigneron de Marolles – on disait 'Alain' – qui l'avait présenté à Marenches.

There appear to be ideological similarities between the Nouveau Droite (Alain de Benoist), New Right of Alexandr Dugin and paleoconservatism in the US.

Alain De Botton gives a very eloquent TED talk about this [1], which is much more interesting than this Black Swan pep talk bullshit.
