Friday Links!
Leading off, a genuinely heartwarming story (with plenty of pictures): Bear cub rescued from woods is being raised by humans dressed as bears.
This one is quite nice, too (it's a video in a Reddit thread I couldn't copy the video address directly): Tom the mime brings the best vibes. I can't believe I just linked to a mime who's genuinely funny.
This is an utterly fantastic read: A Century Ago, a High School Teacher From a Small Tennessee Town Ignited a National Debate Over Human Evolution.
A nightmare in the UK: Spies, lies and betrayal: my ruinous relationship with an undercover cop.
A delightful segment from This American Life (about a safecracker): Better Call Dave.
From Wally, and it's excellent: When a president goes rogue: In these books, it already happened. Obscure, yet interesting: Chinese Air Force to 1939.
From C. Lee, and I think this will change over the years, but it's certainly a factor now: AI use damages professional reputation, study suggests. There will be a significant weeding out of AI companies, just as there was a weeding out of Web commerce companies around the turn of the century: Bubble Trouble. I'm not surprised by anything but the concentration: Scientists Just Found Who's Causing Global Warming. An interesting read: How “green” is your 401(k)? There's a giant conflict between the supposed "health" being promoted by the administration and actions like this: The EPA Is Giving Some Forever Chemicals a Pass. This is an excellent read/listen: On Broadway, Nobody Knows Nothing. People forget what it was like before environmental regulations: Vintage photos reveal what American cities looked like before the EPA regulated water and air pollution. I see it every time I go back, and it's a sad decline: The transformation of Austin, Texas. Surely they'll limit access to this, too (we're in the worst timeline right now): New RSV vaccine, treatment linked to dramatic fall in baby hospitalizations. I had no idea the odd Star Trek chairs were based on real designs: Star Trek Design. Additional: Capisco Chair by Peter Opsvik for HÅG. So clever: There’s some assembly required for these iconic horror characters brilliantly reimagined as IKEA products.
