"The aspartame in Diet Coke leaves the taste of pennies in my mouth." Fascinating piece by @yeahyeahyasmin on the eternal letdown of sugar substitutes theatlantic.com/health/archive…
Tesla's EV business is in trouble—but its energy business is booming. The company's future may not be as an auto manufacturer so much as a sort of utility company for the green revolution: theatlantic.com/technology/arc…

The US will soon learn how bad its PFAS crisis is. But Maine has already begun to look—and is waking up to a nightmare. For @TheAtlantic I spoke to a family realizing they drank toxic water for 30 years, and what it may have cost them. Maine is a warning: theatlantic.com/science/archiv…

“By one measure, Direct File’s total employees are outnumbered by just the lobbyists working for Intuit.” @Saahil_Desai theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
"That Direct File exists at all is shocking. That it’s pretty good is borderline miraculous...it’s a glimpse of a world where government tech benefits millions of Americans." theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
That the new IRS tax program exists at all is shocking. That it's pretty good is borderline miraculous, writes @Saahil_Desai: theatlantic.com/technology/arc…

Maritime Morse code was formally phased out in 1999, @Saahil_Desai writes. But in California, a group of enthusiasts called the “radio squirrels” keeps the tradition alive: theatlantic.com/magazine/archi…
The SAT is going digital, another mark in the long decline of Scantron and similar machines—a technology that has quietly shaped every reform and debate in American education for a century, as I wrote for @TheAtlantic in September: theatlantic.com/technology/arc…
