The Internet Needs a Memory (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 1996, during the early years of the web, I could see that those of us who were participating online were creating an extraordinary new record of human activity—and allowing it to disappear almost as quickly as we made it. The web was becoming the place where government officials made promises, journalists published information in the public interest, and ordinary people shared ideas and documented their lives. Yet it was fragile—equal parts consequential and ephemeral. Many people assume that…
The Minimal Requirements for a Society Free From Fear (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In 1989, the year the West won the Cold War, Francis Fukuyama published an essay announcing “the end of history.” He wasn’t claiming that historic events would stop taking place; what was over, rather, was the debate about the meaning of those events.

“Isn’t that illegal?” That’s a question I get asked a lot as a former federal prosecutor. Donald Trump, his family, and members of his administration are most often the inspiration.

Ever since Zohran Mamdani exhilarated the left with his out-of-nowhere mayoral campaign, mainstream Democrats have been dejectedly searching for an inspirational figure of their own. Where is the Democratic executive who has the media savvy to inspire his own cultlike following while making pragmatic governing decisions and ignoring the incessant demands of progressive activists? At last, the moderates have found such a Democrat. His name is Zohran Mamdani. Mamdani’s election, which created the …
Like Yesteryear , but Better (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How’s this for a job offer? In the span of no more than 10 years, you’re to have seven babies for C-suite women at a major tech firm. You’ll be on a strict diet and exercise regime, your vitals constantly monitored. You can’t have sex. Or a C-section (lest you forgo the “natural birth bonus”). Nor can you tell your loved ones what your actual job is (as far as they’re concerned, you’re in “consulting”). You’ll get just six months of downtime between pregnancies. And, as the test case for this “g…
