Linky Links

 Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Space Junk happens to be a pet concern of mine and this article is perhaps the best I've seen at describing the problem and what is being done to mitigate it.

-  The Google Career Certificate program looks like a viable alternative to college for many.

- Heh Heh

- Victor Davis Hanson describes the sad and scary State of California

- James Altucher with his response to Jerry Seinfeld - Altucher is right! NYC is in very serious danger. But here's the thing - to most outsiders (like me) many of the issues plaguing NYC are self-inflicted so sympathy is almost non-existent. 

- Company claims it can use nuclear waste to make batteries that can go 28,000 years without charging.

- Speaking of California - Governor Newsom assures Californians that wildfires are "mostly peaceful"

    “They didn’t want the shows to be too interesting or plot-heavy (aka “normal”) that it distracted the viewer from their ‘primary screen’ of their phone. The streamers wanted to ensure that the viewer kept the streaming service on for as long as possible, something simply playing in the background and not intruding on their social media scrolling.”
