  • Oppenheimer Analysis - The Devil's Dancers (Minimal Wave Records - UK)
  • Assessing the damage at Notre Dame Cathedral – in pictures
  • Julian Assange book mystery solved - The book he was holding as the police arrested him was a book by Gore Vidal the founder of The Real News Network, who has had a longtime aversion to U.S. military force and surveillance - I still think it looked like he was wearing a rubber glove on his left hand

  • EU gives 'high-level' protection to whistleblowers
  • Pyodide - Bringing the scientific Python stack to the browser (uses webassembly and emscripten)
