  1. (5/6) These are the “Big Tech” behemoths which must be regulated today. We fail to regulate them at our own peril, as individuals and as a global community.

    With these goals in mind, I highly recommend this recent podcast and article from Tech Policy Press and Harpers magazine.

  5. «When studying memory, neuroscientists sometimes refer to ‹persistence› and ‹transience.› Is memory a recording? A storehouse? A catalogue? More like vapor.»

  9. Catching up on some reading and just finished Michael Robbins excellent essay in Harpers on eschatology. He ties in a bunch of themes, but one quote stuck out to me: "As the Lakota historian Nick Estes has noted, 'Indigenous people are post-apocalyptic. In some cases, we have undergone several apocalypses.'" #climate #Harpers #lakota

  10. In August, I examined an 1895 promotion in the children's magazine, Harper's Round Table. Those who sold 30 lbs of teas, spices, and powders for a company would receive a Fairy Tricycle. After discussing the promotion, I wrote about what I learned about the Fairy Tricycle itself from some research.
