An important 1982 lecture by Grace Hopper is stored on tape in a vault at the NSA
MuckRock filed a FOIA request to get a copy of the lecture
Three years later, the NSA said they could not read the 1982 tape format, and sent back a photocopy of the tape reel 🙃

Lenacapavir did so well at preventing HIV infection that it hit the threshold where the only ethical thing to do was stop the randomized trial and immediately offer it to literally every participant. That's huge news. www.npr.org/sections/goa...

Hi I’m the UI designer of Outlook 365. The “flag email as important” and “delete email” buttons are six pixels away from one another because I hate myself and my job and I’m taking it out on you, the consumer. Enjoy your 365 experience and remember: I hate you.

Hot take: I'm truly not interested in hand wringing over how much people will miss enjoying the books of men who have turned out to be abusers. I'm far more concerned about the missing art that women haven't been able to create/publish because they crossed paths with such men.

Ya know, every day I am reminded how frustrated I am that more humanities classes don't expose students to the works of flagrant liars and manipulators and ask them to practice critical thinking on the reading. So many STEM-heads I know really don't know how to question a document and it's a PROBLEM

The history of alt text goes back to 1993. The alt attribute was introduced for HTML 1.2 to be used for text-based browsers, which load faster by not loading most of the graphic content. This was a big deal when bandwidth connections were super limited.

Casting a single vote for the better major candidate has a large positive net expected value for society, and you can very often tell who's a better candidate (especially this year!). Voting is humble, unselfish, and rational—a little chore that you should do. www.liberalcurrents.com/elections-ar...

What this article leaves out is that if you hand your unlocked phone to a police officer, they can legally search it. Unless companies develop a method that allows you to show officers insurance cards and driver license without unlocking the rest of your phone, don't.

I once wrote a fact check of a Morgan Spurlock book. He included what he said was a direct quote from the FDA that aspartame causes cancer. I checked the footnote. An FDA newsletter did publish that claim — but *only to specifically refute it*. That’s basically how Barrett quotes Madison here.
