Does the news reflect what we die from? →

Fascinating post from Bill Gates’ Twitter. Oddly enough after a couple of decades of being on the Apple side of the Mac vs. PC war I find admiration for the Gates’ family growing and growing with each passing year. If only we had more families like theirs!

From the Our World in Data article, “The major standout here – I had to break the scale on the y-axis since it's several orders of magnitude higher than everything else – is terrorism: it is overrepresented in the news by almost a factor of 4000.” Fascinating to see these stats.

Magazines in Apple News+ - how/what/where? →

News+ was the first product/service announcement from the Apple March 25 event and the only one that you can try out right now. I was and am excited about this as it helps meet some of my personal goals of lowering overall monthly expenses and being a better steward of our limited resources in this world.

Apple has some work to do on the UI and overall workflow. I can only guess that trying to shoehorn the offerings from the former Texture acquisition was hairy than they expected. Let’s hope they get this ironed out over time. It’s already a great value.

Good read from Mac Rumors on how to use the Magazine capability.
