Today is the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Mahna Mahna on Sesame Street. You’re familiar with it by now, of course, but... well, it never hurts to be reminded, does it?

This should be the law EVERYWHERE!
Woah!

Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.

If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.

The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

At a temple in Ancient Olympia, a flame is drawn from the sun to begin its journey to the Winter Games. The ceremony, inspired by ancient Greece, will take place again for the Milan Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, as the torch crosses Italy.
Praying for the sun: What to know about the flame-lighting ceremony for the Winter Olympics
From Olympia — birthplace of the ancient games — to Milan’s San Siro Stadium on Feb. 6, the torch will cross Italy’s cities and cultural landmarks, carried by thousands of relay runners.

It just occurred to me, as someone who used to work in a HIPPA compliant office, that Google's Gmail changes have almost certainly broken every significant privacy law in every country in the world instantaneously.

This is why I have stopped using Gmail except as the email that I give when online shopping. My main email is Proton now.

Google turned their service into a dumping ground for spam.

So that's how I use it.
