* “The widowhood effect: What it’s like to lose a spouse in your 30s.” Brutal, moving, and you may cry. Consider yourself warned.
* Tim Cook alleges that great desktop Macs are in the works. I’ll believe it when I see them.
* To Slow Global Warming, We Need Nuclear Power.
* “How Silicon Valley Nails Silicon Valley,” unexpectedly hilarious.
* Campus Identity Politics Is Dooming Liberal Causes, according to Mark Lilla, who you may remember from The Shipwrecked Mind.
* “How Amazon’s problems with cheap knockoffs got real.” I’ve become much more sensitized to this issue and less likely to buy non-books from Amazon for precisely this reason.
* “World War III, by mistake.” See also “Trump fears and the nuclear apocalypse.”
* “Automakers Prepare for an America That’s Over the Whole Car Thing.” The bizarre thing to me is that Americans ever loved cars in the first place. See also “Cars and generational shift” and “Owning vs sharing: Don’t get caught in the ugly middle.”
