Scientists use bacteria to turn plastic waste into paracetamol
 Genetically modified E coli used to create painkillers from material produced from plastic bottles.
"People don't realise that paracetamol comes from oil currently," said Prof Stephen Wallace, the lead author of the research from the University of Edinburgh. "What this technology shows is that by merging chemistry and biology in this way for the first time, we can make paracetamol more sustainably and clean up plastic waste from the environment at the same time."

WorkCease-Fire Between Israel and Iran Appears to Begin: Live Updates - Intelligencer (No paywall) Israel and Iran are set to begin a cease-fire early Tuesday morning after President Trump announced on Monday evening the two countries had agreed to stop fighting. If it happens and holds, the tentative peace will come less than two weeks after Israel launched the war, two days after the U.S. attacked three Iranian nuclear sites (with still uncertain results), and hours after Iran retaliated with ballistic missiles against the U.S. base in Qatar. Below are the latest developments, along with analysis and commentary. WorkWorkWorkSenates Byrd Rule Upends Trump's Big Beautiful Bill  She wasnt elected and she doesnt cast votes.

WorkCan Ayatollah Khamenei, and Iran's Theocracy, Survive This War? - The New Yorker (No paywall) Just hours after the U.S. bombed three nuclear sites in Iran on Sunday, President Masoud Pezeshkian joined thousands of anti-American protesters in Tehran's Enghelab Square. Enghelab means revolution in Farsi. The angry crowd waved placards vowing that they were ready for the big battle and calling for revenge, revenge. One poster depicted President Donald Trump as a snarling vampire. The Iranian regime has long been able to mobilize its base for propaganda purposes and social-media imagery. But, after ten days of barrages by the American and Israeli militaries, the more telling banners made plaintive and prideful statements. Iran is our homeland, one declared. Its soil is our honor. And its flag is our shroud.

WorkThe economic theory behind Trumpism For more than half a century, the American right has preached the virtues of free markets and low taxes and deregulation. But a new wave of conservative thinkers are now arguing that Republicans have been wrong or at the very least misguided about the economy. WorkWorkWorkWorkDispensable Nation - Foreign Affairs (No paywall) Donald Trump's rise to power and enduring political appeal have been fueled in part by his depiction of the United States as a failure: exhausted, weak, and ruined. In a characteristic act of self-contradiction, however, his foreign policy is based on a significant overestimation of American power.
