Rockets, ADHD, Audiobooks, and Electricity
I read a lot of random stuff. Link Dumps are the things I think are worth remembering. You can always check out my Link Dump Tag if you’re looking for even more to read and please forward to anyone else you think might find these interesting.
There are now more bots on the internet than humans. I honestly would have assumed this happened a decade or two ago? I don’t actually think this means anything in particular…but an interesting factoid I suppose.
S&P 500 won’t list SpaceX in half the time it usually does in its indexes but, you know, Elon Musk is still now a trillionaire.
Introspection on changing while you age. I though the statistic of changing most before 30 and after 60 was particularly interesting.
What is the largest source of electricity in each country? This is a cool and very surprising article. It is interesting to look at the map behind that link and think about how distorted my understanding is from what I hear in the media. It ties into another graph I was just looking that shows the share of electricity production by source.
Good write-up on “doing nothing at work.” I continue to appreciate the way Sean approaches topics like this in the IT world.
The Perfect Storm for ADHD Overdiagnosis. An in-depth read but make sure to read the top comment as well. An incredibly complex subject.
Conservatives and Liberals Have Diverging Health Outcomes. Why?
Audiobook sales have exploded and that’s great to see. I love books and audiobooks and it’s fantastic to see “readership” growing because of them.
Good piece on the progress being made with cancer - a 33% drop in deaths since 1991.
Geothermal might not get the press or the bitching of Nuke but…it’s still freaking cool.
A deeply nerdy story about how Discord flipped all their voice chat to use Cloudflare’s edge compute. Very slick.
