"Stress may make us feel anxious or angry; humor replaces that feeling with a moment of joy, lightness, surprise or connection."

"You’re not denying that there is some trouble in the world or there is great despair and grief. It’s giving yourself a break. And we all need a little break.”

Scientific American Loses Its Bold Leader

"Trump spews insults and wins the election. Helmuth loses her job. Critics of cancel culture cheered Helmuth’s cancellation."

Excellent analysis on politics, journalism, and science in the wake of SciAm editor Laura Helmuth stepping down.

I read that an author in the Scientific American had written a book called “A little man who wasn‘t there” - that I’m sure is a reference to a poem I learned (and loved) in my teens:

I saw a little man upon the stair
A little man who wasn’t there
He wasn’t there again today
Gee, I wish he’d go away

"What characterizes the bullshitter, [the late American philosopher Harry] Frankfurt said, is that they just don’t care whether what they say is true. ChatGPT and its peers cannot care, and they are instead, in a technical sense, bullshit machines."

Fab #sciam story on space junk and what to do if it falls on your land. "SpaceX has provisional permission..to launch.. 42,000 Starlink satellites. Assuming each one.. lasts 5 years.. SpaceX will be [de-orbiting] burning up ~1 satellite per hour."😮 🔭🛰️🧪 📖: www.scientificamerican.com/article/spac...

Three different views of debris from a SpaceX Crew Dragon vehicle. This section of the Crew Dragon’s trunk fell on Barry Sawchuk’s farmland in Saskatchewan on February 26, 2024, and is but one of several large pieces discovered from the uncontrolled reentry event.

I've just realised that I read my first edition of Scientific American in May 1984, just over 40 years ago. A couple of months later, I set up a regular subscription (a standing order in WH Smiths, back then). I'm still reading it, and I still have almost all of the intervening issues.
