November 18, 2025, 7:44 PM EST. SpaceX plans a Falcon 9 launch from Vandenberg Space Force Base on Nov. 19 as part of the Transporter-15 rideshare mission. The window runs 10:18-11:15 a.m. PT, with a backup slot the following day if needed. This mission is not a Starlink flight-the payloads are small satellites deployed into a sun-synchronous orbit. Because the rocket will follow a southern trajectory, visibility from Arizona is unlikely, and morning sun glare could further obscure sightings. Delays due to weather or technical issues are common, so check back with local outlets such as azcentral for updates. The launch follows a prior Sentinel-6B mission from California and marks another step in SpaceX's busy west coast schedule from Vandenberg.

November 18, 2025, 7:42 PM EST. SoftBank Group disclosed it sold its stake in Nvidia for about $5.8 billion, raising capital to diversify into other bets and speed up its shift toward OpenAI and AI services, including in Japan. The Tokyo-based firm said first-half profit jumped to roughly ¥2.5 trillion (~$13 billion) and six-month sales rose about 7.7% to ¥3.7 trillion. SoftBank has long invested through its Vision Funds and recently reiterated plans tied to AI ventures, including a high-profile joint push with OpenAI and partners on a project named Stargate. The move signals a strategic pivot away from Nvidia exposure toward boosting AI capabilities and potential collaborations around ChatGPT and related offerings in Japan and beyond.

November 18, 2025, 7:40 PM EST. Nicholas Carr's early warning in The Atlantic that the Internet is reshaping our neural circuitry and eroding our capacity for deep thinking remains striking. This Atlantic piece helped crystallize concerns that online life alters how we read, remember, and concentrate. The Time-Travel Thursday edit revisits how digital tools-from the iPhone to social media-have intensified interruptions and shortened attention spans. Carr reflects on his own attempts to resist scatter and questions whether his predictions have held up. The broader argument asks whether technological mediation enhances knowledge or dulls conceptual understanding. Framed alongside media milestones-from the printing press to television-the piece invites readers to consider how to foster focused thinking in an era of rapid information flow.
