Headlines I Clicked
2025: This is a reboot from the prior Headlines I Clicked and Why section, with more of a bloggy/ editorial/ vague summary commentary afterward instead of focusing on why per se. Hopefully this iteration will link the original story more diligently.
2026: I am rebooting it again, with a different premise: to provide links to headlines, to later check to see whether they still exist. I have noticed a lot of news articles are difficult to locate again, and I want to see if their original links get removed, headlines reworded, etc. I am pasting the headline as it appears in the big letters on the page, rather than what the tab-title says, because sometimes those are different.

| Headline | Walgreens doubles down on prescription-filling robots to cut costs, free up pharmacists amid turnaround |
|---|---|
| Remarks | Another “robotics/ai replacing workers” story, as the concept is becoming increasingly common, as it is currently somewhat rare except in large industrial settings. It's pushing toward more common in smaller consumer-interfaced settings, which is still weird to me. |
| Headline | ‘Glow’ From Humans Stops At Death, Study Says. Here’s Why Understanding It Could Save Lives. |
|---|---|
| Remarks | Sounds like one of those woo-woo sites about crystals and energy, but from a more mainstream source. Low-level photon emittance seemingly without stimulation, ends upon life cessation |

| Headline | Baby Is Healed With World's First Personalized Gene-Editing Treatment |
|---|---|
| Remarks | 3 infusions later, “CRISPR components wrapped in fatty lipid molecules that protect them in the bloodstream until they reach liver cells” performed a gene-edit on a baby with CPS1, which “prevents proper ammonia processing and is often fatal.” |
| Headline | 'Qatar's $400 Million Jet For Trump Is a Gold-Plated Security Nightmare' |
|---|---|
| Remarks | “Troy Welcomes Horse Gift From Greeks” |
| Headline | Intel Certifies Shell Lubricant for Cooling AI Data Centers |
|---|---|
| Remarks | Intel employs lubricant made by Shell (presumably instead of water-cooling), as data centers' electricity usage expected to double by 2030. If only they could like, use all that heat to generate electricity. |
| Headline | Western Digital Invests in Ceramic Storage Firm That Claims 5,000-Year Data Retention |
|---|---|
| Remarks | Ceramic-and-Glass data storage firm aims to reduce costs to $1/TB by 2030 and enter the 'Yottabyte' Era |
| Headline | US Copyright Office to AI Companies: Fair Use Isn't 'Commercial Use of Vast Troves of Copyrighted Works' |
|---|---|
| Remarks | I think said Office is not actually understanding what ai is doing with the works. It doesn't have to be transformative, because it's not using it in the way a person would; it draws meta data from it |
