WorkWhat I missed when I went to North Korea
  Two days after I visited North Korea with my father Eric — then Google’s executive chairman — in January 2013, I sent a trip report to my friends. The report went 2010s-era viral: millions of views, media requests, and rather a lot of feedback about my choice to publish on Google Sites. I found my one minute of fame overwhelming, so I hid and left the site alone. Recently, my colleague Michael Donohoe noticed that the original report had finally fallen into the internet’s abyss. He offered to reconstitute it for Rest of World. With a wince — who likes their old writing? — I said yes. Work

WorkThe Terrifying Legal Election Scenario ThatKeeps Me Up at Night
 The conclusion of Evan Osnos’s big New Yorker profile of Joe Biden from last week ends on a note that is still ringing in my mind. Osnos asks the president about how it all might end in November—or beyond—and whether Trump, if he’s bested in the 2024 election, will concede the race. Biden doesn’t seem to be under any delusion: “Losers who are losers are never graceful,” he said. “I just think that he’ll do anything to try to win. If—and when—I win, I think he’ll contest it. No matter what the result is.” WorkIs University Really Worth It? review – not when students are left starving
 The comedian Geoff Norcott has a dilemma: should he be saving money so his son, "Little Geoff", can go to university when the time comes, or should he buy a new car now? The conceit may be thin, and you can see the payoff coming, but Is University Really Worth It? is far more interesting than this flimsy framework. Norcott used to be a secondary school teacher, and he explains that in his time, he bought into the New Labour "education, education, education" doctrine wholesale, encouraging countless students to apply to university. Now, amid budget cuts, strike action, punitive fees and the growing corporatisation of learning, he wonders if he would say the same today.
WorkWorkSprouts of Hope in a Gloomy Media Landscape
 But traffic from social media giants like Facebook and Twitter dropped, and the economics of digital ads didn’t add up. Predictions of supplanting traditional TV networks or sprawling print empires never came to pass. The most recent outlet to try this playbook, The Messenger, folded in January, fewer than nine months after it launched.
WorkWill the Supreme Court Now Review More Constitutional Amendments? - The New Yorker (No paywall)
 There’s more than one way to skin a Constitution. Here are two: a court might base a decision on the original intention, meaning, and public understanding, the “history and tradition,” of a constitutional provision, or it might base a decision on a consideration of the consequences. Ordinarily, a judge might apply both these and other methods, but a strict originalist might argue that the jurisprudence of originalism is fundamentally opposed to the jurisprudence of consequentialism—that it’s best to heed the past and damn the consequences. During oral arguments at the Supreme Court in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, for instance, Justice Samuel Alito asked about origins (“Can it be said that the right to abortion is deeply rooted in the history and traditions of the American people?”), and Justice Sonia Sotomayor inquired after consequences (“When does the life of a woman and putting her at risk enter the calculus?”). Alito wrote the majority opinion, declaring that no right to an abortion can be found in the Constitution’s history and tradition, and that therefore “the Fourteenth Amendment does not protect the right to an abortion.” Sotomayor joined a dissent that denounced “the majority’s refusal even to consider the life-altering consequences” of its decision. WorkChristina Applegate says she lives 'in hell' amid MS battle, 'blacked out' at the Emmys

WorkWorkHow a ceasefire in Gaza can turn tides in the next US election
 During the US presidential elections back in November 1948, Arab diplomats in Washington tried lobbying Arab-Americans into voting for the Republican governor of New York, Thomas E. Dewey.

WorkWhy some say it's significant 'Godzilla Minus One' won an Oscar the same year 'Oppenheimer' did
 The kaiju monster movie, which takes place in a postwar Japan that’s grappling with devastation and loss, took home the prize for best visual effects, the first Academy Award in the franchise’s 70-year history. Against the backdrop of a ceremony dominated by “Oppenheimer,” a film focused on the man behind the atomic bomb, many Japanese Americans say the win for “Godzilla Minus One” felt like a small acknowledgment of their historical pain. WorkWorkOn the Tripwire of a ‘Red Line,’ It’s Often Presidents Who Trip
 The seemingly obvious implication of Mr. Biden’s threat was that if the Israelis went ahead with their plans and conducted another military operation with high civilian casualties, Mr. Biden would for the first time place restrictions on how Israel could make use of the arms the United States is supplying. Until now, Mr. Biden has rejected any such move — even though Washington places conditions on almost every arms sale, including requiring a commitment from Ukraine that it will not fire American missiles, artillery or drones into Russia. WorkWorkOpinion | It’s Time to End the Use of Special Counsels
 The main aim of the 1999 regulations that govern special counsels today was to center accountability for sensitive investigations more firmly with the attorney general. The regulations gave the attorney general power to reverse a special counsel decision “so inappropriate or unwarranted under established departmental practices that it should not be pursued” and contemplated special counsel explanations of prosecutorial or declination decisions in a confidential report that the attorney general had discretion to disclose if in the “public interest.” WorkZimbabwe, After Expelling U.S. Officials, Accuses Them of Promoting ‘Regime Change’
