1163. This week, we look at what it's like to be a "language detective" with Sali Tagliamonte and how she used her own teenagers as a research lab. We look at a 25-year study on how the phrase "be like" became a permanent fixture of English, why the word "very" is suddenly making a comeback with younger generations, and what happens to our language when we spend all day talking to AI. Sali Tagliamonte, University of Toronto

This week we're joined by visionary artist Skinner!!! The mind behind neon-drenched monsters, cosmic chaos, and some of the most visually stunning artwork in modern horror and heavy metal culture. From album art for Mastodon to Magic: The Gathering, tabletop games, toys, murals, and beyond, Skinner has built an entire universe fueled by imagination, nightmares and obsession. We dive into his new YouTube series Art Show With Captain Skinner, the evolution of his creative philosophy, and how he balances instinct, technique, ego, burnout, and survival in our modern societal hellscape. It's a conversation about monsters, mushrooms, interdimensional beings and why creativity might be the only sane response to an increasingly insane world.  We also talk a good deal about our cats… If you like horror, art, psychedelic fantasy, practical effects, comics, puppets or artists who refuse to play it safe then this one's for you sooo… COME HANG OUT!!!

Las sukeban fueron bandas juveniles femeninas que surgieron en Japón durante el siglo XX, en una época de fuerte crecimiento económico, rigidas normas sociales y expectativas sobre el comportamiento de las jóvenes. En este episodio exploramos su origen, el entorno social en el que aparecieron y su influencia en historia contemporánea japonesa y en la cultura pop posterior. Un fenómeno que refleja la precariedad económica, la falta de expectativas, las tensiones entre juventud, las normas sociales y la identidad femenina en una sociedad en transformación. Analizamos cómo surgieron, qué representaban y por qué su presencia generó preocupación e interés tanto en su época como posteriormente.

1162. This week, we look at why some names just "feel right" while others don't and how vowels like "ee" create associations with smallness and sweetness while back vowels like "ah" sound bigger and more serious. Then, we look at dependent clauses and when it's OK to start a sentence with "because."The baby names segment was written by Valerie Fridland.

With no official details revealed, speculation runs high. Could we see colorful, lower-cost MacBooks powered by A-series chips? M5 Pro and Max MacBook Pros? Updated iPads? The panel debates whether Apple may stage a staggered release week or unveil everything in a single coordinated announcement. The discussion shifts to Vision Pro, where rumors suggest Apple could demonstrate immersive Formula 1 experiences just days before the 2026 F1 season begins. With Apple's expanding sports footprint, including IMAX screenings of F1 races, the possibility of spatial sports broadcasting feels closer than ever. The panel also reviews VisionOS 26.4 beta updates, including refined UI elements, reorganized settings, early foveated streaming support for developers, and expanded 8K playback capabilities on newer hardware. iOS 26.4 beta brings one of the busiest update cycles in recent memory. Highlights include AI-powered playlist creation in Apple Music, enhanced podcast video playback directly inside the Apple Podcasts app, CarPlay integration with third-party AI tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini, improved hotspot usage visibility, battery charge limit automation through Shortcuts, and Stolen Device Protection becoming enabled by default. The panel weighs in on whether security features should be opt-in or automatically enforced. On the Mac side, Rosetta 2 warnings now alert users when launching Intel-based apps, signaling Apple's continued push toward full Apple Silicon adoption. The conversation explores legacy software challenges and developer responsibility during platform transitions. Additional stories include Toyota adding Apple Wallet car key support, Tesla's rumored CarPlay integration delays, and a powerful real-world example of Emergency SOS via satellite saving skiers in a Lake Tahoe avalanche. Finally, Apple's sports strategy takes center stage as MLS Season Pass becomes free for Apple TV+ subscribers, joining F1 and Friday Night Baseball in Apple's expanding live sports ecosystem.

Fredrik river av en länklista, och snackar om fascination för språkmodeller, ansvar som utvecklare, jobb på 8k pixlar, vad man lär sig med tiden, och ganska mycket mer. Som inledning diskuterar han två blogginlägg med lärdomar av tio år som engineering manager respektive utvecklare. Minns du några tydliga åsiktsändringar du gjort under din tid som utvecklare? Berätta! Därefter funderar han över hur Apple tappat sin magi på sistone, och till och med för honom som långvarig användare mest känns som det företag som tillverkar trevlig hårdvara och sakta tappar greppet om allt annat. Sedan pratar han om det oväntat trevliga i att jobba på två 4k-skärmar - med skarven mitt i synfältet dessutom! Andra halvan av avsnittet kretsar kring språkmodeller, utvecklaransvar, och arkitektur. Och den intressanta boken Resisting AI som går igenom många av de problem och problematiska synsätt som finns inbyggda i modellerna vi använder som om de var någon sorts neutrala verktyg. (Varning: köp den inte som e-bok i Glassboxx!) Varför blir folk så uppslukade, kan man tänka på modellerna som automatisering av implementation, och vad har Steve Yegge lyft för en bra poäng på sistone? Som avslutning och uppmuntran: En trevlig video med Dylan Beattie om CSS. Ett stort tack till Cloudnet som sponsrar vår VPS! Har du kommentarer, frågor eller tips?

rWotD Episode 3218: Don (given name) Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Tuesday, 24 February 2026, is Don (given name).Don is a masculine given name in the Irish language, as well as a short form of two masculine given names in the English language. The Irish name is derived from the Irish donn; the name can either mean "brown", or "chief", "noble". The Irish name is a variant spelling of Donn. The English name is unrelated to the Irish name; this name is a short form of the given name Donald or Donovan. Pet forms of this English name include Donnie and Donny. Don can also be a surname, also derived from "brown".This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:57 UTC on Tuesday, 24 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Don (given name) on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Emma.

fWotD Episode 3217: Kent Haruf Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Tuesday, 24 February 2026, is Kent Haruf.Alan Kent Haruf (, rhymes with sheriff; February 24, 1943 – November 30, 2014) was an American writer born and raised in Colorado. He wrote six novels and several short stories set on the High Plains, mostly in the fictional town of Holt.After completing his undergraduate degree in English at Nebraska Wesleyan, Haruf enrolled in the Peace Corps and performed work in lieu of military service before receiving a master's degree from the University of Iowa. He initially struggled to establish a career as a writer; in addition to stints as a janitor, construction worker and farmhand, Haruf spent years teaching English at a high school in Wisconsin and at universities in Nebraska and Illinois. His writing was first published in 1984 when he was 41. Although Haruf's first two novels received critical praise, commercial success eluded him until the publication of Plainsong in 1999, which became a bestseller. He followed it up with Eventide (2005), a direct sequel to Plainsong, and Benediction (2013).Throughout Haruf's career, critics praised his spare and elegant prose, authentic portrayals of rural life, and attention to the beauty found in ordinary things, although he was occasionally criticized for redundancy. In early 2014, Haruf was diagnosed with an incurable lung disease. He wrote his final book, Our Souls At Night, while ill and died that November. The book was published posthumously and adapted into a film of the same name. A Colorado magazine, 5280, wrote that Haruf is "widely considered Colorado's finest novelist", and the Dublin Review of Books called his work "both uniquely American and profoundly universal".This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:44 UTC on Tuesday, 24 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Kent Haruf on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Amy.

pWotD Episode 3219: Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day, spotlighting Wikipedia's most visited pages, giving you a peek into what the world is curious about today.With 1,172,519 views on Monday, 23 February 2026 our article of the day is Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes.Nemesio Rubén Oseguera Cervantes (17 July 1966 – 22 February 2026), commonly referred to by his alias "El Mencho", was a Mexican drug lord and head of the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), an organized crime group based in Jalisco. He was the most wanted person in Mexico and one of the most wanted in the United States at the time of his death. The U. S. government and the Mexican government were offering rewards of up to US$15 million and MXN$300 million, respectively, for information leading to his arrest.Oseguera Cervantes was wanted for drug trafficking, organized crime involvement, and illegal possession of firearms. El Mencho was allegedly responsible for coordinating global drug trafficking operations. Under his command, the CJNG became one of Mexico's leading criminal organizations.Born into poverty in the state of Michoacán, El Mencho grew avocados and dropped out of primary school before immigrating illegally to the U. S. in the 1980s. After being arrested several times, he was deported to Mexico in the early 1990s and worked for the Milenio Cartel. He eventually climbed to the top of the criminal organization and founded the CJNG after several of his bosses were arrested or killed.His notoriety was also a result of his aggressive leadership and sensationalist acts of violence against rival criminal groups and Mexican security forces alike. These attacks brought him increased government attention and an extensive manhunt. Security forces suspected he was hiding in a rural area of Jalisco, Michoacán, Nayarit, or Colima, and that he was guarded by mercenaries with military training.On 22 February 2026, Oseguera was seriously wounded during a Mexican military operation in Tapalpa, Jalisco, and died of his gunshot wounds while being transported to Mexico City. The operation, aided by U. S. intelligence, triggered widespread retaliatory violence by the CJNG, including road blockades, vehicle fires, and clashes that killed at least 25 National Guard members.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:37 UTC on Tuesday, 24 February 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Nemesio Oseguera Cervantes on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Amy.

TikTok has shifted to a majority-American entity, TikTok USDS Joint Venture, LLC, to comply with U.S. national security requirements and avoid a ban. This week we discuss why a recent privacy policy update went viral—especially language about sensitive data like immigration status and precise location—and argue much of it reflects longstanding practices and required California privacy disclosures. We emphasize reading policies, understanding your threat model, and making your own decision about using TikTok or other social platforms. The episode also briefly mentions Ring ending its partnership with Flock and a rumored internal email about expanding Ring's “search party” feature. ** Links mentioned on the show ** TikTok users freak out over app's ‘immigration status' collection — here's what it means https://tech.yahoo.com/social-media/articles/tiktok-users-freak-over-app-043402475.html Here's what you should know about the US TikTok deal https://techcrunch.com/2026/01/23/heres-whats-you-should-know-about-the-us-tiktok-deal/ TikTok's Privacy Policy https://www.tiktok.com/legal/page/us/privacy-policy/en ** Watch this episode on YouTube ** ** Become a Shared Security Supporter ** Get exclusive access to ad-free episodes, bonus episodes, listen to new episodes before they are released, receive a monthly shout-out on the show, and get a discount code for 15% off merch at the Shared Security store.

In this episode of the Who's He? Podcast.... Who's On The Page? - Interstitial Insecurity To continue with our Sixth Doctor Month, Scott and Phil selected a short story written by Colin Baker, Interstitial Insecurity, set during the Trial of a Time Lord season.  Written for the Doctor Who Storybook, released in 2019, this story finds old Sixy gathering evidence for his defence in the Matrix while gathering his wits after witnessing the death of Peri.  At eighteen pages long, did Phil and Scott think this shortest of short stories added anything to this troubled season of Doctor Who? And in the news: Doctor Who: The Movie gets an updated 4k and blu-ray release in time for the films 30th Anniversary. You can currently find us on X, Threads, Mastodon, Bluesky and Facebook.  Don't miss an episode by subscribing to our show on Apple Podcasts/iTunes, Spotify, Amazon Podcasts, plus many other podcatchers of your choice.

You love building web apps with Python, and HTMX got you excited about the hypermedia approach -- let the server drive the HTML, skip the JavaScript build step, keep things simple. But then you hit that last 10%: You need Alpine.js for interactivity, your state gets out of sync, and suddenly you're juggling two unrelated libraries that weren't designed to work together. What if there was a single 11-kilobyte framework that gave you everything HTMX and Alpine do, and more, with real-time updates, multiplayer collaboration out of the box, and performance so fast you're actually bottlenecked by the monitor's refresh rate? That's Datastar. On this episode, I sit down with its creator Delaney Gillilan, core maintainer Ben Croker, and Datastar convert Chris May to explore how this backend-driven, server-sent-events-first framework is changing the way full-stack developers think about the modern web.
