When bats were wiped out, more human babies died, a study found. Here's why | CBC News
When bats were wiped out, more human babies died, a study found. Here's why | CBC News
Researchers found that infant deaths increased after farmers used more pesticides to battle pests when bats weren't around. The findings are part of growing evidence that humans rely on the animal and plant species around them, and are harmed when those species decline or go extinct.

America Must Free Itself from the Tyranny of the Penny
Few things symbolize our national dysfunction as much as this accursed coin, which we mint by the millions because it’s too worthless to spend.

"All About Regular Expressions" by Jade Allen (Strange Loop 2022)
"All About Regular Expressions" by Jade Allen (Strange Loop 2022)
If you write software, you probably use regular expressions frequently in your code, in developer tooling and even maybe in database queries. But where did they come from? How did the token ^ come to mean "the start of a line"? You might know that "PCRE" means "Perl Compatible Regular Expression" but why is Perl singled out? And maybe you're aware that the developers of golang were originally wary about including regular expressions in their language design. Why? Are regular expressions - gasp - dangerous? In this talk we will examine the historical origins of regular expressions and various implementations of regular expressions in programming languages old and new(er). We will discuss why some regular expressions are "bad" and how inefficiencies can be avoided or minimized. Jade Allen Nova Labs, Software Developer @avocadoSuperFan Jade has been a software developer and dev-ops person for a really long time. She is interested in functional programming, distributed computing and computing history topics. She writes mostly Erlang for her day job. -------- Sponsored by: -------- Stream is the # 1 Chat API for custom messaging apps.

Darius Kazemi, Tiny Subversions - XOXO Festival (2014)
Most people are lucky if they finish a couple side projects in a year. Last year, Darius Kazemi released 72, averaging one every five days. His projects fall under what he calls “weird internet stuff” — bots that generate random Amazon purchases, surreal metaphors, rap battle lyrics, pickup lines, and everything in between. In "How I Won the Lottery," Darius explains how he became a successful lottery player, and with hard work and a little luck, how you can too. Recorded in September 2014 at XOXO, an arts and technology festival in Portland, Oregon celebrating independent artists using the Internet to make a living doing what they love.
