RRE is ten years old. I stopped sending out these links because a bunch of issues all got stale at once. Like okay, you've probably got it about Enron, and Microsoft, and cyberspace, and conservative jargon, etc. So what matters now? We'll have to figure that out. As a first guess, here are some links that are mostly intelligent academic discussions at the intersection of information technology and more permanent things. Do send links corresponding to your own guesses.
