Dear @TheEconomist , I love you guys, but the State Department strongly recommends against travel to both of your finalists for "country of the year" (Syria, Bangladesh). Perhaps reconsider the selection process? Or add rule: ineligible if revolution in last 12 months?

I started out programming x86 assembly (we only had 16bit registers then, like AX, CX, etc). So I love these kinds of vulnerability writeups. Looks like this one (which is terrible awful) is specific to AMD CPUs?

I just went to SIX STORES looking for @Enfamil baby formula and came back empty handed. This has been going on for what, a year? I assume E is content with the status quo, but I don't really have a choice but to abandon this formerly-loved brand.

Two exciting things about the Webb are: 1. The mirror is YUGE 2. Unlike Hubble it sees in infrared, which means we can look at really distant stuff that is redshifted, or at nearby things in wavelengths that the Earth's atmosphere absorbs. Plus the design will attract space bees
