Musk threatens to sue researchers who documented the rise in hateful tweets
In order to win a libel suit it is my understanding they must prove the claims to be false. So if this goes to court they could end up proving in court that it is a matter of fact provable that Twitter has become more toxic since Musk took over. And then they would win. That would be brilliant.

For the Love of God, Stop Microwaving Plastic
Totally makes sense not to microwave plastics, why take the risk?
That said this article is alarmist. It states, “… The human health effects of plastic exposure are unclear…” then goes on to give a bunch scary quotes to generate fear.

Unsafe Rust: living up to its name

Not only unironic but explained in the doc you referenced:

This is mathematically impossible in situations where you do not control the scheduler, which is true for the normal OS environment.”
