This 17 Year Old Lied to Join the Navy — And Accidentally Cracked an Unbreakable Code - YouTube [35:34]
Comment: born 4 Nov 1921 and died 17 Oct 2008. He was a famous code breaker in world War two and was 20 when he registered for the draft while living in Bronxville, NY. He didn't lie about his age but the rest seems accurate.

Lemony Roasted Mushroom Pasta Recipe
A mélange of mushrooms, roasted with aromatic garlic, sweet red onions and warming woody herbs, brings elegance to this easy weeknight pasta Roasting mushrooms is a wonderful hands-off cooking technique, giving them the time to soften and become golden around the edges while staying moist and plump Lemon wedges are roasted, too, which unlocks their sweetness and coaxes out a deeper citrus flavor

Data
This is what happens to a file when you delete it from your SSD
Deleting a file on an SSD isn’t as straightforward as it looks.
How file deletion actually works (on a hard drive)
the OS only removes the reference (or pointer, in programming lingo) to that file from the file system index.
SSDs don't overwrite data like traditional HDDs
Unlike traditional HDDs, SSDs use NAND flash storage, which organizes data into blocks and pages. This storage structure plays a key role in differentiating how SSDs store and erase data in comparison to HDDs
Can you recover deleted files from an SSD?
your SSD only marks the blocks containing the deleted data as ready for deletion. It's only when the garbage collection process runs that the data is permanently deleted.
Fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on the situation), the garbage collection process typically doesn't take long to run after you delete a file.

Tesla FSD Just Drove 12 Hours Straight: You Won't Believe What Broke It [44:12]
3 errors, 2026 Tesla Y, FSD 14.1.7, over 700 miles, Michigan to North Carolina, summary at 44:00. No safety issues but was not in leftmost lane to make left turn at light, parked for charging at a closed pump even though readout on screen also indicated it was closed, first error was choosing a tollroad despite settings. Electric vehicles do not have spares I probably get a flat every 25k miles.
