Friday Links!
Light this week, but still some gems.
From C. Lee, and this is very thoughtful: The Marriage Lesson That I Learned Too Late. This could be very important: As gonorrhea becomes untreatable, a repurposed vaccine may prevent it. Good grief, how were they meeting anyone new? US sexually transmitted infections surged to record high in 2020. This is no surprise: Calif. lawyer resigns “in protest,” points to Newsom “interference” in Activision case. I had absolutely no idea this was happening: Space mice may offer clues to why astronauts get kidney stones.
From Ken Piper, and what an amazing person: The remarkable brain of a carpet cleaner who speaks 24 languages. This is fascinating (and I struggle with this): How might neuroergonomics help us cope with brain overload?
From Scott S., and this is about as disgusting as it gets: Meta COO Sheryl Sandberg accused of squashing reporting about then-boyfriend Bobby Kotick.
From Wally, and being stupid is expensive: Dodge Viper Crashes During Street Race. This is quite clever: Powered chopsticks use electricity to make food taste 50% saltier.
