AI, Green Data, NMT 

Every issue since, through June 11, published at least one article each, all but a lone letter to the editor reflecting majority opposition.

I should be surprised NMT didn't know, but I'm not.

Voice training tips for trans women:

You know how when you talk to a cat carrying something suspicious in her mouth, your voice goes higher when you say "What've you got there, buddy?"

Imagine everyone you talk to is a cat carrying something suspicious in their mouth.

As a side note, SMTP is my favorite cautionary tale of how decentralized protocols can become centralized over time
