How States and Congress Can Prepare for a Looming Threat to Freedom of SpeechU.S. Supreme Court building (Kjetil Ree, https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:US_Supreme_Court.JPG; https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en, CC BY-SA 3.0) After months of deliberation, last week the Supreme Court declined the most recent chance to revisit New York Times v. Sullivan, the landmark 1964 case that requires public officials to meet a high bar to succeed in a defamation lawsuit. Yet the certiorari denial in Coral Ridge Ministries Media v. Southern Poverty Law Center is most safely seen as a temporary reprieve for First Amendment advocates, and not a g... read more
The Great Venusian Bug Hunt
[image: The Great Venusian Bug Hunt] *Our recent focus on life detection on nearby worlds concludes with a follow-up to Alex Tolley’s June essay on Venus Life Finder. What would the sequence of missions look like that resulted in an unambiguous detection of life in the clouds of Venus? To answer that question, Alex takes the missions in reverse order, starting with a final, successful detection, and working back to show what the precursor mission to each step would have needed to accomplish to justify continuing the effort. If the privately funded VLF succeeds, it will be in the un... read more

"The Devil's Work"
*"The Devil's Work"* by The Zman "There is an old expression that has fallen out of favor in the post-scarcity age, but it may be the key to understanding the current crises. That expression is, 'Idle hands do the Devil's work.' When people do not have anything productive and useful to do with their time, they are more likely to get involved in trouble and criminality. A variant of this is "The Devil makes work for idle hands.' The idea there is if you want to avoid Old Scratch, then make sure you keep yourself useful to God. The source of these proverbs is unknown, but variations ... read more
