  An accessible yet erudite deep dive into how platforms are remaking experiences of death 
   
   
    
  Since the internet's earliest days, people have died and mourned online. In quiet corners of past iterations of the web, the dead linger. But attempts at preserving the data of the dead are often ill-fated, for websites and devices decay and die, just as people do. Death disrupts technologists' plans for platforms. It reveals how digital production is always collaborative, undermining the entrepreneurial platform economy and highlighting the flaws of techno-solutionism. 
   
   
    
  Big Tech has authority not only over people's lives but over their experiences of death as well. Ordinary users and workers, though, advocate for changes to tech companies' policies around death. Drawing on internet histories along with interviews with founders of digital afterlife startups, caretakers of illness blogs, and transhumanist tinkerers, the technology scholar Tamara Kneese takes listeners on a vibrant tour of the ways that platforms and people work together to care for digital remains. What happens when commercial platforms encounter the messiness of mortality?

  "Alarms and Discursions" is a collection of essays by the brilliant English writer G. K. Chesterton. Let's explore some of the intriguing pieces within this work:    Introductory: On Gargoyles:  Chesterton begins with a contemplation of a gargoyle—one of those grotesque stone figures that adorned the water-spouts in medieval cathedrals. He reflects on the meaning of the grotesque and embarks on a symbolic reverie about the three great stages of art.  The essay takes us on a journey through the ages, exploring the transition from innocence to sophistication, from primitive sun-worship to the intricate craftsmanship of cathedrals.  The Surrender of a Cockney:  Chesterton humorously dissects the transformation of a Cockney (a Londoner) who moves to the countryside. The Cockney's surrender to the charms of rural life leads to delightful observations about human nature.  The Nightmare:  In this piece, Chesterton delves into the realm of dreams and nightmares. He muses on the significance of nightmares and their connection to our waking lives.  The Appetite of Earth:  Chesterton explores the insatiable hunger of the earth itself—the way it consumes and renews life. He weaves together themes of nature, desire, and eternity.  The Philosophy of Sight-seeing:  Chesterton playfully critiques the modern obsession with sight-seeing. He questions whether travelers truly see what they behold or merely collect superficial experiences.  These essays are a delightful blend of wit, wisdom, and whimsy, showcasing Chesterton's unique perspective on life, art, and human existence. "
