After deadly protests, more Iranian women choosing to defy hijab law despite the dangers (r/news)

• LameAfro: Imagine getting triggered over Womens hair. Biggest cry baby Goverment of all time 😂
• PlankownerCVN75: Fucking good for them, man.
• mynameisnotnemo: I want yall to understand that Iranian women have very thick skin and they don’t give a flying fu** about this law. My mom’s friend is a teacher in Shiraz and she goes to work without her roosari (hijab) and no one cares. Even the police around her in the school don’t press. I was just in Shiraz late last year and there’s a famous walking trail called piyadeh ra salamat. I walked here often and I saw women both with or without hijab and nothong was abnormal about this. It feels like a law which is still the written “law” but it’s not being enforced how outsiders may think at all. If the government attempts to crack down on those opposing this law, it will fail.

• ImTooSaxy: We’re making a nation of gambling addicts, starting with kids buying “mystery box” toys as well as in video games. It used to be that you could only gamble in Las Vegas and Atlantic City, and maybe at the bingo hall at church. America has gotten real weird, real quick.

Pharmacists of Reddit - what recent medication trends are worrying you that aren’t being talked about? (r/AskReddit)

• Empty_Ad4954: I work in a large teaching hospital. We see lots of patients on GLP-1s with pancreatitis or recurrent bilious emesis. When they’re discharged they’re told to speak to the original prescriber about whether or not to continue the GLP-1. Which of course does not happen every time
• iamellenphant: Absolutely the GLP-1s. These are serious medications with potential for serious side effects (as another commenter pointed out with pancreatitis, I’ve also seen gastroparesis requiring surgical involvement). The fact there’s now so many of these unvetted companies willing to prescribe the plethora that’s out there with minimal supervision makes my skin crawl.
• AMH1028: Hi, actual pharmacist. I am worried about the vast number of over the counter ”natural supplements” that actually contain unregulated prescription medication. For example, gas station “stamina” pills that have sildenafil, a med that requires a prescription. Even stimulants are found in these supplements it’s crazy.

What’s so expensive that it’s not even fun anymore? (r/AskReddit)

• free_hug21: Concerts. I used to think the hard part was getting tickets. Now the hard part is convincing myself one night is worth half a paycheck.
• Myitchychocolatestar: Bowling!
• jillyymariee: Movie theaters. What do you mean a popcorn is more than my already expensive movie ticket?

Morale is so bad at Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta even the company’s own CTO admits it’s ‘probably the worst it’s ever been’ (r/technology)

• Prudent_Link6029: Virtual pizza in the metaverse should boost morale
• casualfrog68: The firings will continue until the morale improves.
• hmmm_: Every company I’ve ever been at, once employees feel they are disposable it’s over. You don’t easily recover. It corrodes individual performance, it gets team fighting each other, good people start to leave. It’s an insidious change in the way a company feels and the negative effect accumulates over time - usually CEO/CFOs have the good sense to move on so the new CEO gets blamed for the decrease in company performance.

• LifeFeckinBrilliant: Any Chinese or Iranian stuff I wonder…
• NeonFraction: They’re about to make some military nerds VERY happy.
• Puzzled-Hedgehog4984: The reverse-engineering pipeline has been running since 2022 — this just makes the output shareable at scale. What’s underrated here isn’t the captured hardware, it’s the institutional knowledge Ukraine is building about exactly where Russian supply chain quality breaks down. That catalog has value well beyond this war.

Problem gist

A Clock inside the Nucleus

Modern atomic clocks are already astonishingly stable: the best lose only about one second every 100 million years. Yet they still rely on electrons in an atom’s outer regions, where stray electric and magnetic fields can disturb the measurement. Physicists have long wanted to move the clock’s reference point into the much smaller, denser, and better-shielded atomic nucleus.

Techmeme surfaced the Wall Street Journal investigation They Looked Like They Were Getting Rich on Polymarket—but None of It Was Real, published June 21. The article examines how a product built around publicly observable wagers marketed itself through videos of trades that never happened.

The Journal reviewed more than 1,100 videos, creator instructions, and interviews with people who worked in Polymarket’s paid content program. It found dozens of mostly college-age creators filming staged trades and, in some cases, fabricated wins. The videos looked like personal accounts of successful betting, but the activity shown did not correspond to transactions on Polymarket’s actual market.

Mexico cuts workweek, bans after-hours contact, and guarantees no worker will take a pay cut in the most sweeping labor reform in a generation (r/news)

• WifesPOSH: What about the rich people? How are they affected? Why does no one think of the wealthy?
• PrometheusMMIV: How can they guarantee people won’t get a pay cut? Does it prevent them from holding back raises until your pay is in line with market value? Does it prevent them from firing someone and hiring someone else that’s cheaper? This might be a temporary stopgap, but in a few years, the market will readjust and people will most likely be earning less per week than they were before.

Company tiers for SWE in 2026 - yes another try (Blind)

• IkYV84 (Autodesk): I don’t get why people keep posting the so-called “tier list”, is it really important? Why does prestige even matter? Why would you care what other people think? I went from FFANG to my current company and I couldn’t be happier. The best company will always be individual specific and not some list based on someone else’s opinion.
• fscP66 (TikTok): Netflix erasure. Also Nvidia gets glazed despite paying like it’s Microsoft for SWEs 🤡
• exFrontier (xAI): Any tier list that doesn’t attempt to rank hft/quant is not serious. You lack knowledge of the world around you

• Nepalus: I think it’s definitely something that is becoming more prevalent. Worse yet, good luck trying to extradite or get to people in some of these remote places in the world. Cutting edge AI tooling in the hands of just a single rogue actor half way around the world is one thing, what happens when it’s a whole office building working in concert to attack companies, electric grids, etc?
• Icy_Yam_9951: If I ever decide to use Claude to hack a company, I’ll make sure to ask it for help improving the resume of an african guy. And replace my IP with an african one.

A Science Built around Private Evidence

Allison Parshall’s article begins with the difficulty at the center of consciousness research: consciousness is the most immediate fact of a person’s life, yet it is directly available only to that person. Scientists can observe behavior and brain activity, but they cannot independently inspect another individual’s pain, inner speech, sense of self or experience of color. The field must therefore study a real phenomenon through indirect evidence.

This summary covers The Economist’s June 13th, 2026 Science & technology article listed in the contents as New test for lung cancer and published under the headline Predict and prevent.

Cancer prevention has usually meant reducing exposure to known risks, such as smoking and air pollution. A new study points toward a more targeted approach: use a blood test to identify people whose biology suggests that lung cancer is beginning to develop, then give them an existing anti-inflammatory drug before a tumour forms.
