The opposite of doomscrolling: Every two weeks (roughly) I send you a collection of the best Internet reading I've found -- links to culture, technology, art and science that fascinated me. Full, free archives here. I'm Clive Thompson, a longtime science and tech reporter (Wired, New York Times Magazine), book author (Coders) and blogger. I'm at clive@clivethompson.net and on Mastodon. The Linkfest is pay-what-you want. Put your email below and boom you're subscribed, for free! It'll tell you to "upgrade your subscription" -- but you don't need to, unless you want to put in a monthly amount below to support this project, and obtain my undying regard. It's Guardian-style economics here; folks who support it help keep it free for rest of the entire planet.
