Opening Arguments - OA542: Oklahoma Supreme Court Overturns Verdict Against Opioid Companies

Sometimes Andrew tells us the coverage is wrong and actually a thing wasn't so bad. This is not one of those times. This ruling was an absolute disgrace. And wouldn't you know it, Republicans were responsible. We break it all down. Other topics today: we discuss Veterans Day and the Rittenhouse Trial. And, Vulgarity for Charity is back! Make sure to donate! Andrew tells us about a major sentencing in the 1/6 insurrection. And, lots of Trump documents are about to be released to the public!

The Stack Overflow Podcast - The polyglot who leads Stack Overflow’s Platform team

Rennie grew up in Kenya, Honduras, Somalia, and Oklahoma; his parents volunteered for the Peace Corps before working for the US Government overseas. 

Audio tape drives are real!  Check out this Retrocomputing question about how the Commodore 64 audio interface worked. 

If you  want  to remember something better, a 2014 study says you should write it out by hand. 

Rennie worked at Blackberry, and Ben remembered his colleagues at the Verge fondly hoping for their comeback. In fact, here's Ben hoping for their comeback!

We did a podcast on moving from engineer to manager, which Rennie said was one of the hardest things to do. 

Rennie gave a shoutout to the book he's reading now, The Elegant Puzzle by Will Larson. 

Rennie works on our Platform team, which works on all of our reusable stuff, including our design system, Stacks. 

This week's Lifeboat badge goes to Vinzzz for explaining how to Create an array of random numbers in Swift.

In today's double episode, both books center people who have died. And they aren't just tributes to those who've passed, but to the people who remember them. First, Steven Roberts remembers his late wife, journalist Cokie Roberts, with NPR's Steve Inskeep. His book Cokie is full of interviews with her friends, family, and colleagues. Then, poet Victoria Chang talks about past and future generations of her family and what she wants to pass on to her own daughters in her book Dear Memory: Letters on Writing, Silence, and Grief with NPR's Rachel Martin.

Consider This from NPR - What Went Wrong At Astroworld? The Deadly Dynamics Of Crowd Surge

Who is to blame for the deaths of nine people at the Astroworld Festival last Friday? Houston police have opened a criminal investigation and concertgoers have already filed more than 20 lawsuits against the event organizers and rapper Travis Scott, who continued to perform for more than half an hour after officials declared a mass casualty event.

Crowd safety expert Keith Still explains the science behind how a concert crowd can transform into an uncontrollable mass that threatens human life.

Houston Chronicle music critic Joey Guerra, who attended the festival, grapples with how music fans are processing the tragedy.
