Looking for RSS feeds for AP & Reuters
I’m using FreshRSS and trying to get RSS feeds from Associated Press and Reuters, but the usual methods aren’t working properly.
Since they’ve deprecated their official feeds, what’s the best way to get them now? Any working tricks, APIs, or alternatives?
Thanks!

I've been watching The Pitt, but it can be a bit much, so I went looking for something a bit lighter, and found 9 to 5 on Amazon Prime. Jane Fonda, Lily Tomlin and Dolly Parton are the stars, and Dolly's famous song with the same name is the theme. It's a perfect slice of the world I grew up in. I get it confused with Working Girl which came out eight years later, with a similar theme -- what if women ran the business world, how much better would that be? Working Girl also had a really good theme song, written and performed by Carly Simon. -
Texas Politicians Slowly Realize Elon Musk Hijacked Billions In Taxpayer Broadband Grants
Back in June I wrote a feature for The Verge about how Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos had convinced Republicans to redirect billions in taxpayer money away from future-proof fiber optic upgrades, and toward their low-Earth orbit (LEO) satellite broadband networks they’d already planned to deploy. Curious behavior for two extremely-rich gentlemen who both repeatedly […] -

[Help needed] Social Media Aggregator?
As I'm trying to escape the creeping negative influence of technology in my life, I want to make a commitment to limiting the amount of time I spend on social media apps, especially the awful invention that is "infinite scroll".
I believe fighting the addiction to my phone would be a *lot* easier if I could simply combine all of my followed profiles on YouTube, Instagram, and Reddit into *one feed* which is chronological and doesn't insist on feeding me garbage I didnt ask for.
However, it seems like doing so is difficult, because big tech companies deliberately make it impossible to view content outside of their walled garden.
I would love if someone could provide pointers for how a dumbass like me can synthesize all of the content I find interesting in one place. I am willing to try any solution, no matter how hacky, to make it happen. (I am on Android if that's relevant.)
Any tips are appreciated 🙏🙏

THE INSTASCAMMER - THE YELLOW BRICK ROAD
FULL SERIES - https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-instascammer--7247429
No one expected it to happen online.
This is where the story begins: how a wellness figure built a devoted following through juice cleanses, food protocols, and private groups full of encouragement and before-and-after photos. What started as health advice quietly became something people trusted with far more than their diets. In this opening episode we trace that rise — the language, the promises, and the community that formed around a single voice — and set out how the series approaches what came next.

Season 9 Opener: A Little Bit Culty Vancouver book launch & live Q&A (Part 1)
We’re kicking off Season 9 live from our very special book launch conversation from July 2026 in Vancouver about our book, A Little Bit Culty: Navigating Cults, Control and Coercion. We chatted about the messy, hilarious, full-circle journey behind the book, then get into how to support someone who may be caught in a high-control group without pushing them further into isolation. We unpack love bombing, indoctrination, behavior and thought control, loaded language, personality changes, and the all-important question: is what you signed up for actually what you’re getting? Stay tuned for Part 2 on Thursday.

Getting full articles from Hacker News RSS
I recently started using RSS and self hosted FreshRSS, and I’m really liking it so far.
One thing I’m trying to figure out is Hacker News. When I add it to FreshRSS, it only shows the original source link instead of the actual news or article content.
Is there any way to get the news content directly in FreshRSS without having to open the original links every time?
Any tips or recommended setup?
EDIT: The same thing is happening with Phoronix. It’s showing the title and short description instead of the full article.

Carl's Doomsday Scenario
Carl's Doomsday Scenario
Author: Matt Dinniman
Genre: Fantasy, Sci-fi
Released: 2021
Rating: ★★★★★"The training levels have concluded. Now the games may truly begin."
The ratings and views are off the chart. The fans just can't get enough. The dungeon gets more dangerous each day. But in a grinder designed to chew up and spit out crawlers by the millions, Carl and Princess Donut need to work harder than ever just to survive.
They call it the Over City. A sprawling, once-thriving metropolis devastated by a mysterious calamity. But these streets are far from abandoned. An undead circus trawls the ruins. Murdered prostitutes rain from the sky. An ancient spell is finally ready to reveal its dark purpose.
Carl still has no pants.
They call it Dungeon Crawler World. For Carl and Donut, it's anything but a game.
Similar to the first book I absolutely loved this one too, and finished it in a couple days as well. This book focuses on the next level in the dungeon, level 3, and introduces new concepts to the game, as well as new characters.
Of course, Dinniman continues to develop the main characters as well, and I'm finding myself beginning to like Princess Donut. Which is strange, as I'm not a cat person. 🙃
Some intergalactic politics are starting to make their way into the story line too, which acts as a nice reprieve from all the mob killing...sometimes. I hope to see these story lines continue to develop as Carl and Donut (hopefully) continue to find out more about this whole shit show they find themselves in.
Blooding loving this series.
Thanks for reading this post via RSS. RSS is ace, and so are you. ❤️

A Doctor’s Gut Reset: 4-Part Protocol to Stop Bloating, Boost Energy, & Feel Better Now
Why are you bloated all the time?
Why can certain foods suddenly make you feel terrible?
And what is actually going on inside your gut when nothing you try seems to work?
Today, Mel is joined by Dr. Rajsree Nambudripad, MD, a board-certified medical doctor specializing in integrative gut health and integrative medicine, who has spent years helping patients uncover what’s really behind their most stubborn symptoms.
This conversation will change the way you understand your gut – and reveal a simple 4-part protocol for getting to the root of what’s making you feel so bad so you can feel your best again.
Dr. Rajsree covers it all: IBS, bloating, SIBO, constipation, diarrhea, leaky gut, histamine intolerance, low stomach acid, reflux, food sensitivities, and more.
And she explains the surprising ways your gut can impact your energy, anxiety, focus, sleep, skin, weight, metabolism, blood sugar, and thyroid health.
You’ll learn:
-The 4 systems that control your gut health – and what happens when even one is out of balance
-2 steps you can start taking immediately to improve your gut health
-What causes bloating and how to stop it fast
-The 3 main symptoms of IBS and what they may be telling you
-What histamine intolerance is and how it disrupts your “gut garden”
-The surprising connection between your gut and your thyroid
-The Hashimoto’s symptoms your gut may reveal first
-How exercise can help reverse insulin resistance
-Why your “acid reflux” may actually be the opposite problem
If you’ve been told “everything looks normal” but you still don’t feel normal – or you’re tired of guessing which food, supplement, or symptom to chase next – this episode will help you understand what your body may be trying to tell you – and what to do next.

Broken feeds for newspapers owned by MediaNews Group?
San Francisco Bay area newspapers owned by MediaNews Group (East Bay Times, Mercury News, Marin Independent Journal) have for a long time published RSS feeds for various sections of their sites. For example, the source code for the Mercury News homepage currently includes the following link to an article feed:
<link rel="alternate" type="application/rss+xml" title="The Mercury News » Feed" href="https://www.mercurynews.com/feed/" />My feed reader software indicates that these feeds all quit working on March 9th. When I try to load any of them directly in my browser, I get an
HTTP 403error.Does anyone know what happened and how we might get them to fix it? I tried contacting them via a form but never heard back.

Understanding ChatGPT Work
OpenAI announced ChatGPT Work on July 9th, and have been furiously iterating on it ever since. It is an extraordinarily confusing and very powerful product. Here's what I've figured out about it so far.
ChatGPT Work is actually two products
The more interesting version of ChatGPT Work is the one that runs in the cloud. This can be accessed via chatgpt.com or through the ChatGPT mobile apps. Let's call it Work Cloud.
If you install the ChatGPT desktop app - the app that used to be called Codex - you gain access to a thing called ChatGPT Work that can access files and run programs directly on your computer. Let's call that one Work Local. This one feels more like regular Codex re-skinned to be less intimidating to non-software-developers.
(Update: Work Cloud is also available from the ChatGPT desktop app, via a Where should this chat run? dropdown.)
For the rest of this article I'm going to talk exclusively about Work Cloud.
Work is for paid subscribers only
Right now, ChatGPT Work (in both flavors) is available only to $20/month and up subscribers. Free users and $8/month Go users do not have access.
Work has features that aren't available in Chat
The interface for accessing Work is a tab selector, which presents it as an alternative to Chat:
The obvious question is when should I use Chat, and when should I use Work?
OpenAI's official answer to that question is:
Use Chat when you want an answer, explanation, brainstorm, or short draft. Use ChatGPT Work when you want ChatGPT to complete a task with a clear outcome, such as a brief, deck, analysis, recurring update, workflow, or file you can review and use.
I find that almost entirely useless, because I've been using regular ChatGPT Chat for all of those task categories for years!
The better question then is what features does Work have that are missing from Chat?
After extensive experimentation I think I've mostly figured that out:
- Options to use Luna and Terra in place of Sol
- A code execution environment with Internet access
- A headless Chrome browser
- A persistent filesystem shared between sessions
- The ability to publish ChatGPT Sites
- The ability to run sub-agent sessions with Sol, Luna, and Terra
- Scheduled prompt automations (may be in ChatGPT Chat too)
Model selection
In Work, you get the option to pick GPT-5.6 Sol, Luna, or Terra, each with Light, Medium, High, Extra High, Max, or Ultra reasoning levels. You can also pick GPT-5.5 at Light, Medium, High, or Extra High.
These look to be the same models that are available through the OpenAI API.
Chat offers a different selection: 5.6 Instant, Medium, High, Extra High, and Pro (actually Extra High and Pro are only available for $100/month+ subscribers - $20/month subscribers cap out at High). It doesn't explain if those are Luna or Terra or Sol (I'm assuming Sol?). 5.6 Pro appears to be exclusive to Chat, with no equivalent in Work.
My current understanding from using Codex is that Ultra is a special mode that more eagerly delegates to sub-agents.
I believe ChatGPT Work sessions are billed against your Codex allowance, while ChatGPT Chat Sessions get their own, separate allowance. This may help explain the model availability differences.
Code execution with Internet access!
As a long-time fan of the Code Interpreter pattern - pioneered by OpenAI in 2023 - this is by far the most exciting feature of ChatGPT Work (Cloud) for me.
The code execution environment can now talk to the rest of the internet!
ChatGPT Chat can't do this - if you ask it to install additional software packages or interact with websites or APIs that access will be blocked by the container proxy.
(Weirdly, back in January it grew the ability to install packages, but that doesn't seem to work any more. I wish they had better changelogs!)
Claude's equivalent container has allowed restricted internet access since it launched last September. Claude can install packages from PYPI and NPM and clone repositories from GitHub. But that is about it: the allowlist of domains is very short.
ChatGPT Work allows a whole lot more than that. It can be configured with a specific list of allowed domains, but the default appears to be open to all.
This makes Work an incredibly useful tool. You can have it clone GitHub repositories, install their dependencies, then use them to interact with the rest of the web!
A full, headless Chrome browser
Another killer feature of ChatGPT Work is the browser tool. ChatGPT Work can launch a full Chrome instance, load websites, fill out forms, and take screenshots.
If a site requires sign in the browser can prompt you to take over and enter both passwords and 2FA codes, without round-tripping those credentials through the model itself.
It can even run JavaScript against the DOM of loaded pages. I prompted:
Load simonwillison.net in your browser and extract the headings using JavaScriptChatGPT Work fired up a browser instance and ran the code:
await tab.playwright.evaluate(() => { return Array.from(document.querySelectorAll("h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6"), heading => ({ level: heading.tagName.toLowerCase(), text: heading.innerText.trim().replace(/\s+/g, " "), id: heading.id || null })); });
This feels a lot like my shot-scraper javascript tool, only now I can access it on my phone!
A persistent, shared filesystem
ChatGPT Chat gets a fresh filesystem for each chat session. These cannot be accessed from any other session.
In ChatGPT Work each session gets its own scratch folder - named something like
/workspace/scratch/e00a0a017944- but each of those are persisted across sessions, so you can access files from previous chats. I have 171 folders in/workspace/scratchright now!As far as I can tell that
/workspacevolume is mounted to all Work sessions that are currently running - file edits from one can be instantly seen by the others. They don't seem to share the same process space though, and localhost servers running in one can't be accessed from another.ChatGPT Sites
ChatGPT Work has the ability to build and deploy entire websites, using Cloudflare Workers. These can have HTML and JavaScript and can run server-side features too, including stateful features on top of Cloudflare D1 and R2.
Here's a simple site I built with this feature:
london-pelicans-in-her-piety.simonw.chatgpt.site
My prompt was:
Figure out all of the places in London with a pelican in her piety, then turn that into a JSON file and build a ChatGPT sites site about them(A pelican in her piety is a fascinating piece of medieval Christian imagery - once you know about them you'll find them all over the place.)
These sites default to being private to the user that created them, but you can make them public and (on team plans) share them with other specific individuals.
Sub-agents with Sol, Luna, and Terra
There's not much to say about this one. ChatGPT Chat can't run sub-agents. ChatGPT Work can. This is very much a power-user feature: if you are running a complex project that can benefit from multiple parallel agents working together, Work can do that.
Scheduled prompt automations
Another feature that seems to have migrated from regular ChatGPT to ChatGPT Work at some point. You can prompt ChatGPT Work like this:
run a search to see if Waymo have announced a launch date for Half Moon Bay every day at 8amThis will schedule a prompt to run on that frequency. These prompts can decide that nothing interesting has happened, or they can decide to notify you of some new information.
Update: Actually this seems to work in ChatGPT Chat as well.
It's still worth noting here though, as it can be used in conjunction with other ChatGPT Work exclusive features. You can set a scheduled task to update a ChatGPT Site on an hourly basis, for example.
Is this safe?
An open question for me right now is how safe all of this stuff is.
My lethal trifecta model warns about the risks inherent in any agent system that combines access to private data with exposure to untrusted content and a way to communicate stolen information back to an attacker.
ChatGPT Work combines all three!
I'd love to hear more from OpenAI about how they protect ChatGPT Work sessions against prompt injection attacks. I expect their answer is the same auto-review mechanism as Codex.
OpenAI could make this a lot less confusing
Figuring this all out took way more work than it should have.
I think there are two key problems here:
- OpenAI explain Work in terms of what it's for, not what it actually does
- OpenAI still insist on hiding their system prompts and tools descriptions
If the ChatGPT Work documentation included the exact system prompt and tool descriptions used by the agent I wouldn't have needed to write this post.
A list of all the tools
Shortly after publishing this article I had an idea. I started a fresh Work session and prompted:
Build a site that lists every one of your tools - nearly grouped into categories - and for each one explain what it does. Try to exactly duplicate arguments and tool descriptions where possible. Design aesthetic should be technical docs, minimal flareHere's the site it built, which includes details of 223 registered tools - though 6 of those are from my own personal MCPs served via datasette-mcp.
And a whole lot of Skills
I noticed that the only browser-related tool in the list was web.run, which has methods for running searches, opening URLs, and clicking links, but didn't look like the full story in regards to headless browser automation.
This made me suspicious that something was missing, so I told the ChatGPT Work session that built that tools reference site:
Add full copies of every skill to the website (separate pages linked to from the homepage)It turns out ChatGPT Work uses a lot of skills - 44 in fact!
The control-browser skill explains how the browser works:
Run browser setup code through the Node REPL
jstool. In this environment the callable tool id typically appears asmcp__node_repl__js. [...]The ability to interact directly with the browser is exposed through the
browser-clientruntime via theagent.browsers.*API. Before trying to interact with it, you MUST emit and read the complete documentation returned byawait browser.documentation()in one go.So I told Work:
Add the full output of await browser.documentation() to the bottom of the /skills/control-browser page
And now you can read that on /skills/control-browser as well.

The AS/400 Revolution: “The System is the Solution” 🖥️
The AS/400 (introduced in 1988) was revolutionary because it was one of the first systems to integrate the hardware, operating system, and database into a single box — way before that became a common concept. IBM’s “The System is the Solution” campaign was one of the most successful in computing history, and the platform lasted so long that it was rebranded as IBM i in 2008, yet still actively used in thousands of businesses worldwide in the 2020s.
Even more impressive? RPG, which was created in the 1960s, is still in active use today — making it one of the longest continuously used programming languages in history. Many companies still rely on RPG programs written 30-40 years ago that continue to run flawlessly on IBM i systems.

Google's Calling Lake Ontario 'Lake America' Now
Google Maps announced on Saturday it would start reflecting the change for U.S.-based users. -
I've been watching Season 1 of The Pitt, and as its reviews said, it's great drama, and there are lots of episodes. I like shows like this because they're simulated communities, we come to know the characters, and think about them even when we're not watching. Before too long we'll have AI programming that makes these shows like software, the stories assemble around the characters, and then are generated the same way ChatGPT generates the art we call slop, which will someday not be a pejorative the same way sick and junk aren't negative terms today. So we'll be able to call up new episodes of The Wire or The Sopranos or The Pitt any time we like. We'd be missing the fun of discussing the latest episode with friends, or maybe we'll have bot-invented friends too who will simulate having watched the episode you just watched, which leads us to another masterpiece of entertainment, The Matrix. On the other hand, I've watched The Wire at least five times all the way through, and even though I know what they're about to say in a lot of places, I do forget the sub-plots so at least some of it can be new each time. And btw, finally an episode of Silo that's was surprising that I didn't see coming. I read the books, so I feel like I should watch the show, but until the latest episode I was uninterested in any of the characters. Finally there's a plot to think about! -

RadarRSS Update: Improved AI curation, refined UI, and new features based on your feedback!
Hey r/rss!
A few days ago, I posted here introducing RadarRSS—an open-source, AI-curated modern news dashboard aimed at reimagining how we consume RSS feeds.
Thanks to the valuable feedback and discussion on my previous post, I just pushed a new release with several improvements to make the experience cleaner, faster, and more practical:
Refined Dashboard UI: Polished the feed layout to minimize clutter and give a true "modern newsroom" feel instead of a plain feed list.
Smarter AI Curation & Summaries: Fine-tuned the AI categorization and summarization layer to highlight key takeaways faster and reduce redundant articles.
Better Feed Organization: Enhanced auto-tagging and filtering so you can easily track high-priority topics across multiple feeds.
Performance & Stability Tweaks: Optimized feed fetching and overall responsiveness.
The goal is still to build a lightweight, open-source alternative for anyone looking for something more dynamic than traditional readers like FreshRSS, Miniflux, or Feedly.
🔗 Release & Source Code: https://github.com/dznass-cmd/RadarRSS
Would love to hear your thoughts on these updates—especially regarding the layout and AI curation flow. Any suggestions on what to tackle next?

Trump’s Third Term May Not Need Trump
There are at least two obvious ways to imagine Donald Trump trying to remain president after 2028.
The first is the constitutional loophole: someone close to him — perhaps one of his children — runs for president with Trump as vice president, wins, then resigns. The 22nd Amendment says Trump cannot be elected president a third time; whether that also makes him constitutionally ineligible to become president through succession has never been definitively settled.
The second is more dramatic: war, perhaps an escalating ground war with Iran, becomes the justification for emergency powers, disruption of the 2028 election and an attempt to remain in office.
The second scenario is constitutionally much harder. America held elections during the Civil War and two world wars, and Trump’s term ends on January 20, 2029 regardless of whether the country is at war.
But focusing on those two scenarios may miss the more plausible one.
Trump doesn’t necessarily need a third term.
He needs a successor.
A JD Vance, Marco Rubio, Trump family member or another loyalist could occupy the White House while Trump remains the political center of gravity of the movement. That would be the American version of the Putin-Medvedev arrangement: formal power moves, personal power doesn’t.
And this is where things become much less predictable.
Vance may currently look like the obvious heir, but early polling tells us more about name recognition and his position as vice president than about who will actually control MAGA in 2028.
Trump remains enormously influential in Republican primaries even with national approval around 33%, and his endorsement continues to move Republican races.
But Trump, the Republican Party and # MAGA are no longer necessarily the same thing.
Trump spent ten years teaching Republican voters not to trust the Republican establishment. He taught them that Washington politicians are corrupt, institutions cannot be trusted and ordinary Americans must “take their country back.”
That lesson cannot simply be switched off when Trump needs to appoint an heir.
Imagine Trump eventually says: JD Vance is my successor.
The Republican establishment falls in line.
But part of the grassroots answers:
No coronations. We choose.
That wouldn’t necessarily be a revolt against Trumpism. It could be a revolt against Trump himself in the name of Trumpism.
“We made MAGA.”
“We are America First.”
“Trump started the movement, but the movement belongs to us.”
This is where a succession crisis becomes far more interesting than a conventional Republican primary.
There could effectively be four competing sources of legitimacy:
Trump’s chosen heir: “Trump selected me.”
The Trump family: “We are the people who can actually be trusted with his legacy.”
The grassroots: “We created this movement and we decide what MAGA means.”
The old Republican establishment: “The Trump era is over; we need to become a governing conservative party again.”
The grassroots faction doesn’t need to control the whole Republican electorate to cause enormous damage. Highly motivated primary voters can punish candidates, threaten incumbents, dominate state-level party structures and make support for the “wrong” successor politically dangerous.
We already see Trump’s endorsement remaining powerful but not absolute: Trump-backed candidates can win decisively, but Republican voters have also defeated Trump-endorsed candidates while still choosing candidates who describe themselves as pro-Trump.
That distinction matters.
It means MAGA may already be capable of separating Trump the man from Trumpism as an identity.
And then comes the linguistic war.
RINO.
Establishment.
Uniparty.
Traitor.
America First.
These labels do more than describe factions. They decide who belongs. A candidate branded “RINO” doesn’t merely have a different policy position; they become illegitimate.
The most dangerous phrase for Trump’s chosen successor might eventually be something like:
“Establishment MAGA.”
At that point, every candidate would be competing to prove that they are more authentically Trumpist than Trump’s own candidate.
That sounds contradictory, but charismatic movements frequently fracture this way. Once the founder can no longer lead indefinitely, everyone begins fighting over who has the right to interpret what the founder really meant.
So I would still put the probability of Trump personally exercising presidential power after January 20, 2029 relatively low — perhaps 5–10%.
A de facto third Trump administration through a loyal successor is considerably more plausible — perhaps 20–35%.
But I would put the probability of a serious MAGA succession struggle much higher.
Because the real question approaching 2028 may not be:
Who does Trump choose?
It may be:
Who owns MAGA?
Trump?
His family?
His chosen successor?
The Republican Party?
Or the millions of people Trump spent a decade convincing that they, and not the institutions around them, are the real voice of America?
Trump created a movement based on rebellion against political authority.
His eventual succession crisis may reveal that this includes rebellion against his own.

I built an open-source RSS news dashboard with AI-powered curation
I've always liked RSS, but I wanted something that felt more like a modern news dashboard instead of a traditional feed reader.
So I built RadarRSS.
The idea is simple:
- Monitor multiple RSS feeds
- Automatically organize news into categories
- Highlight relevant stories
- Use AI to help summarize and curate content
- Keep everything centralized in one interface
- Open source under MIT
It's still an early project, so I'm mainly looking for feedback.
What I'd really like to know:
What would make you actually switch from FreshRSS, Miniflux, Newsboat, Feedly, etc.?
GitHub: https://github.com/dznass-cmd/RadarRSS
I'd especially appreciate criticism about the UI, RSS workflow and AI features.

The New Patrol (Liam Scott #2)
The New Patrol (Liam Scott #2)
Author: Andy McNab
Genre: Military Fiction
Released: 2014
Rating: ★★★☆☆KNOW YOUR ENEMY.
Liam Scott is back in Afghanistan, this time with 4 Rifles. No longer the new guy, it's his chance to prove himself and take the lead. But the warzone has changed dramatically, and so have the rules.
Working alongside the Afghan National Army, Liam and his new patrol face daily attacks from Taliban insurgents. But the real threat seems to be coming from within his unit.
It looks like there's a traitor in their midst.
This is the second book in the trilogy, after reading the first book to my oldest son, he wanted to continue and read this one.
As a veteran myself, parts of this book were close the the bone. I found myself having to take a moment to compose myself a few times, but it's a good read. In hindsight, it's probably too mature and graphic for him, but we're commited now, so we will continue.
We're planning to start the 3rd and final book soon.
Thanks for reading this post via RSS. RSS is ace, and so are you. ❤️

The Race Equation
In medical school, Aaron Baugh, like most doctors in training, was taught that Black people have smaller lungs than white people. His professors explained that it came down to evolution and body proportions.
A spirometer measures lung capacity and helps doctors diagnose and treat most lung diseases, including asthma, COPD, and cystic fibrosis. And for generations, it had a so-called race equation built into it. When a patient breathes into the machine, their lung capacity is compared to what is considered normal for their age, gender, and race. For Black patients, that normal range was 10 to 15 percent lower than for white patients. For years, doctors believed that a race “correction” made the test more accurate.
But after becoming a pulmonary and critical care physician, Baugh discovered that historical assumptions embedded in the spirometer were not only wrong, but were based on racist science that can be traced back to American slavery. And they were leading to misdiagnoses in thousands of Black patients, including military veterans.
“This is not a small test,” Baugh says. “It is used in diagnosis of lung disease. It is used for job hiring. It is used for disability assignments. It is used for different medical treatments. So it can touch people in a lot of important ways if you’re doing this wrong.”
This week on Reveal, we team up with The Race Equation podcast series from the New England Journal of Medicine to examine a standard medical test with a brutal history that is harming Black patients and is still being used in hospitals across the country.

‘Right To Repair’ State Laws Continue To Surge, But Enforcement Remains Nonexistent
There’s still a massive effort afoot to implement statewide “right to repair” laws that try to make it cheaper, easier, and environmentally friendlier for you to repair the technology you own. All fifty states have at least flirted with the idea, though only Massachusetts, New York, Texas, Minnesota, Colorado, California, Oregon, and Washington have actually passed laws. US PIRG […] -
