  • Being a lefty might be hazardous to your health, might also mean you had a “vanishing twin.” Both via Caroline.
  • The FBI is either investigating Carrier IQ, or using it to spy on you.
  • Google’s working on Siri-fying their voice commands, and just bought the makers of local-food/drink-recommendation app Alfred.
  • Caucus season gives The Atlantic an excuse to run a meditation on 20 years of life in Iowa. TWSS aside, is going through the back door really unusual?
  • In case you missed them, Louis CK’s IAMA and Fresh Air interview. Also, if you haven’t seen his new special, you absolutely should. It’s only $5. Update: CK on the economics of the production, as well as other interesting bits.

    • Android fragmentation visualized. The lesson here: buy a nice phone with a clean Android install, like, say, a Nexus One (Except you can’t buy these new anymore. Pick up a Nexus S or wait for the Galaxy Nexus, I guess–or just buy an iPhone).
    • Climate skeptic accidentally buttresses climate change data.
    • I’m with Doug Farrar–Penn State absolutely deserves the NCAA’s “death penalty” for covering up Jerry Sandusky’s abuse. I’d also just like to point out that, despite plenty of evidence of the Catholic Church protected/still protects sexual predators, I haven’t seen any bishops in handcuffs. Also, his autobiography was named Touched. So…
    • I saw Louis CK on Sunday. As usual, he was funny, insightful, and earnest (Won’t spoil anything–the set is going to be his next special). Here’s Alyssa’s writeup.

  • I missed the news the first time around, but Breaking Bad got picked up for a final season. So we have at least a year before the inevitable Scarface/Soprano ending.
  • Best of the Jay-Z and Outkast discographies, in tournament form.
  • The best hip-hop-related drink ads. Stuff like this is more compelling than anything Grantland’s headlining writers have come up with (see also: Katie Baker, who earned huge points with me for coining the phrase “asymptotes of insanity“). Bonus: have you seen the best thing on the Internet yet?
  • Also, thanks to Scott, I have been enjoying the adultolescent train wreck that is Thought Catalog. I suggest you do the same.
