☆ Why doctors used to think drilling into people's skulls could treat mental illness
  + stars: | 2023-06-17 | by ( Carla Delgado | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +7 min
Lobotomies used to be a horrific way that doctors tried to treat patients with mental illness. Different doctors performed lobotomies differently, but one of the primary approaches was to drill a hole in the side of the skull to access the brain. Doctors thought that severing certain connections in the brain could help treat mental illness. By the 1950s, lobotomies were on their way out, but not before doctors performed over 40,000 of them in the US alone. A drill, shown on the right, is cranked by hand to help doctors access the patient's brain.

☆ The Immigrant Experience in a Danish Butter Cookie Tin
  + stars: | 2023-06-06 | by ( Raksha Vasudevan | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +3 min
Now the brand has established dominance: For customers around the world, its blue tin, with its elegant cursive lettering and quaint Danish farmhouse, is inseparable from the experience of the cookies themselves. So, while that early disappointment should have made me wary, the Royal Dansk tin became a hypnotic object for me. Every few days, I opened the blue tin, as if there might be one last cookie to assuage my sadness. We were not unique in our attachment to the blue tin: It’s ubiquitous in many Asian and Latino households. As generations of immigrants know, there is no topping the Danish Butter Cookie tin as an all-purpose repository.

☆ Apple Music Classical’s Common-Sense Streaming
  + stars: | 2023-03-31 | by ( David Mermelstein | ) www.wsj.com   time to read: +1 min
Pity the classical-music fan in the age of streaming, an arts lover forever trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. From jumbled search results to incomplete listings, the experience of finding what one wanted to hear has been annoyingly chaotic. The release earlier this week of a dedicated classical-music app from Apple suggests that a new era is about to begin, at least in terms of ease of use. Searches for conductors, instrumentalists, singers and ensembles are also much easier, though not everything is ordered in the most logical way. Take, for example, a 10-volume series of recordings by the esteemed Danish tenor Aksel Schiøtz , which at this moment appears mystifyingly out of numerical sequence.
☆ More good news for workers is bad news for the Fed
  + stars: | 2022-11-01 | by ( Allison Morrow | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
We the people can create the strongest job market in a generation and what do we get in return? Here’s the deal: The labor market is still very, very strong. And while that’s great news for workers, it’s bad news for the Fed. The “quit rate” held steady at 2.7%, or about 4.1 million workers voluntarily leaving their jobs — not a record, but still historically high. In summary: “If you were waiting for signs of labor inflation easing, you’ll have to keep waiting,” said Lightcast senior economist Ron Hetrick.
