Fairly well vetted article in the Boston Globe about Covid-19 SuperDodgers.

The Boston Globe asked readers who believe they’ve never caught the coronavirus to share their experiences. They published a small variety of responses but covered the spectrum. As someone who is more careful than most, it was an interesting read.

Almost as surprising, though there are the usual minimizers and deniers in the comments, there's actually a lot of pushback (I know, never look at the comments):

yahoo news | Molotov cocktail hurled at home of OpenAI CEO Sam Altman - The Boston Globe

A 20‑year‑old man was arrested on Friday after he threw a Molotov cocktail at the San Francisco home of Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI. The incendiary device ignited a fire on the exterior gate of Altman’s residence before dawn, prompting a police response. The suspect fled on foot, was located an hour later at OpenAI’s headquarters about three miles away, and was threatening to set the building ablaze. No one was injured, and it was unclear whether Altman was at home at the time. Police have not released the suspect’s name, and charges are pending.

Altman, who co‑founded OpenAI in 2015 and is known for the ChatGPT AI platform, lives in a $27 million compound on San Francisco’s Russian Hill. In recent years he has become involved in local politics, serving on Mayor Daniel Lurie’s transition team and joining other billionaires in influencing federal immigration policy. OpenAI and Altman have repeatedly been the focus of protests and security concerns due to the controversial nature of advanced AI technologies.

The incident follows a series of protests against AI firms, including recent demonstrations outside OpenAI, Anthropic, and Elon Musk’s xAI, where activists demanded a pause on AI development. Earlier this year, OpenAI locked down its offices after a person linked to the anti‑AI group Stop AI expressed interest in harming employees, though the group claims it remains non‑violent. The heightened security presence reflects growing tensions between AI developers and their critics.
