- The training data question is a licensing question
Most arguments about scraping are really arguments about who should have been paid, and when.
- Nobody owns the orbit everyone depends on
Low Earth orbit is filling up faster than any single regulator can manage, and the cost of a collision is shared by everyone.
- The hiring slowdown nobody is calling a recession
Headline unemployment is steady while job postings fall. Both things can be true at once, and they usually are.
- The replication that quietly overturned a decade of advice
A large pre-registered study failed to reproduce a famous result. The original is still the one people cite.
- Right to repair is winning on paper and losing in practice
Manuals and parts are increasingly required by law. Pairing, firmware locks and pricing still decide who can actually repair a device.
- Tracking data changed tactics before it changed training
Positional data reshaped how teams press and defend. Its effect on injury prevention is far less settled.
- Office leases are the slowest possible referendum on remote work
Ten-year leases mean the decision made in 2019 is still shaping where people sit in 2029.
- Streaming made the back catalogue disappear
Everything is available until the licence lapses. Preservation was never part of the business model.
- A disclosure deadline passed. The patch did not ship.
Ninety days is the convention, not a rule. What happens when a vendor lets it lapse is decided case by case.
- Why model benchmarks keep disagreeing with each other
Two labs can run the same evaluation and publish different numbers. The gap is usually in the prompt, not the model.

Forum threads
- What should we cover more often?
The newsroom is small, so we have to choose. Which beats feel underserved to you at the moment?
- Corrections policy — how do you handle silent edits?
Some outlets change an article without noting it. What is the rule here?
- How do I change my notification settings?
I would like article notifications but not forum replies. Is that possible?
- Is there a dark mode?
Reading late at night and the white background is rough.
