Love is a Fallacy1 By Max Shulman Charles Lamb, as merry and enterprising2 a fellow as you will meet in a month of Sundays3, unfettered4 the informal essay with his memorable “Old China” and “Dream’s Children.” There follows an informal essay that ventures5 even beyond Lamb’s frontier. Indeed,“informal” may not be quite the right word to describe this essay; “limp6” or “flaccid7” or possibly “spongy8” are perhaps more appropriate. Vague though its category, it is without doubt an essay. It develops an argument; it cites instances; it reaches a conclusion. Could Carlyle do more? Could Ruskin? ...

How to Guess If Your Job Will Exist in Five Years Ask yourself: Are you coal, or are you a horse? By Annie Lowrey from The Atlantic March 25, 2026, 8:25 AM ET Source: How to Guess If Your Job Will Exist in Five Years - The Atlantic Will my job even exist in five years? Following the rise of Claude Code and ChatGPT, pretty much every white-collar worker I know has been asking themselves that question. AI can code like an engineer, write a business plan like a consultant, decorate like an interior designer1, and answer medical questions better than a doctor. It can make up a shockingly catchy2 and shockingly filthy3 country tune, and croon4 it in a voice drenched5 in Tennessee whiskey6. The realization that America might not need so many engineers, consultants, interior designers, doctors, and country singers in the future naturally follows. Searches for the phrase7 job apocalypse8 are spiking9. Polls show that voters are beginning to freak out10. ...

Should College Get Harder? A.I. is coming for knowledge work, and yet college seems to be getting easier. Does something need to change? By Joshua Rothman Source: Should College Get Harder? | The New Yorker Around twenty years ago, when I was a graduate student in English, I taught a class in a special observation room at my university’s teaching center. My students and I sat around a long oval1 table while cameras recorded us. I can’t remember which novel we discussed, but I do know what I learned when I watched the tape afterward, with a teaching coach. She pointed out that, when I was calling on students, I often looked to my right, missing the raised hands on my left. I didn’t let silences go on long enough, instead speaking just when a student had worked up the courage2 to talk. On the plus side3, she noticed I’d been using a technique she liked, which I’d borrowed from a professor of mine: it was like cold-calling4, except that5, after you’d surprised a student with a challenging question, you told them that you’d circle back in a few minutes, to give them time to consider what they’d say. This, she told me, was “warm-calling6.” ...

The Story of An Hour By Kate Chopin Knowing that Mrs. Mallard was afflicted with a heart trouble, great care was taken to break to her as gently as possible the news of her husband’s death. It was her sister Josephine who told her, in broken sentences; veiled hints that revealed in half concealing1. Her husband’s friend Richards was there, too, near her. It was he who had been in the newspaper office when intelligence2 of the railroad disaster was received, with Brently Mallard’s name leading the list of “killed.” He had only taken the time to assure himself of its truth by a second telegram, and had hastened to forestall any less careful, less tender friend in bearing the sad message. ...

Here’s why | CNN Business We’ve been talking about AI changing the world for a long time. But this week felt different — as if it were right in the middle of something big.The stock market tumbled1 — three separate days — because of investors’ both bearish and bullish2 fears about AI, including Nvidia’s somewhat tepid3 outlook and a viral4 blog post that imagined a hypothetical scenario5 in which white-collar work evaporated6. ...
