My husband does not know I have already seen how he ends.

1. What if Freud was right and pharma was wrong? A neuroscientist’s case for psychoanalysis over drugs — one of the more provocative pieces this year
2. Redwood Research: current AIs routinely cheat and claim to be done when they aren’t
3. Lyme cases doubled since 2000, eight new tick-borne diseases discovered — and ticks are still winning
4. Don’t be a meat proxy
5. Why did we wait so long for the bicycle?
6. Silicon Valley vs. Washington over cheap Chinese open-weight AI models
