Not sure if it’s quite what you’re looking for, but I enjoyed WORD BY WORD : THE SECRET LIFE OF DICTIONARIES by Kory Stamper. It’s a book about lexicography by a former Merriam-Webster editor.
A tribute to readers of Baghdad’s Al-Muttanabi street ( ‘Book market of Baghdad ‘) by the fantastic @BaytAlFann of twitter

ChatGPT gives a balanced answer to my question if it can be used to fight fake news and conspiracy theories

Anirban MahapatraI was reading interviews of Katalin Karikó, who made key discoveries that led to the development of lifesaving mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. Her dedication in the midst of adversity struck me.
-She pushed on despite not having job security, NIH R01 research funding, or recognition.
-A chance stop in Mainz led to her joining BioNTech.
-And her daughter is a two-time Olympic gold medalist!
More talk of dedicated scientists, less talk of narcissistic businessmen please.

Brian KlaasHello Mastodon! I'm Brian Klaas - an associate professor of global politics at University College London, a writer for The Atlantic, and host of the Power Corrupts podcast.
I'm Minnesotan.
I write a newsletter on Substack called "The Garden of Forking Paths."
I also wrote the first book on Trump's authoritarianism. My most recent book is "Corruptible: Who Gets Power and How It Changes Us."
And yes, that is a lemur on my shoulder. #Politics #Introduction #WelcomeToMastodon #Mastodon
Andrew 🌻 Brandt 🐇Just before the invasion, #Ukraine made a deal with #Amazon #AWS to create a data warehouse for its government information and infrastructure: tax and property records, bank statements, and the like. Things that an invaded and occupied Ukraine might lose if Russia got their hands on the only copies.
They literally snuck Pelican crates full of SSDs into the country and spirited them back offshore after backing up 10 petabytes of important historic and legal records.
This paragraph, second from the end, really put a fine point on why Amazon did this: They were not beholden to, nor being held hostage by, any Russian operations...because they never had any:
Amazon didn’t have to worry about its relationship with Russia on the Snowball project. It doesn’t have one. “We didn’t have anything to turn off there,” Maxwell said. “We had never invested there. It’s a point of principle.”
Truly an amazing story from the #LATimes.

Drew HarwellThis is what Twitter is now defining as "doxxing people's location." A factual piece of reporting about the company blocking a competitor. Can't do anything until I delete it.
NYT's statement:
"Tonight’s suspension of the Twitter accounts of a number of prominent journalists, including The New York Times’s Ryan Mac, is questionable and unfortunate. Neither The Times nor Ryan have received any explanation about why this occurred. We hope that all of the journalists’ accounts are reinstated and that Twitter provides a satisfying explanation for this action."
