Column | We’re about to turn night into day. Is that a good idea? Proposals before the FCC involve mirrors that could bathe entire cities in sunlight and, from SpaceX, a million satellites to serve as data centers.

I am sure I will regret weighing in here but this piece also uses the profile structure to get at what some of what really matters: how movements stay together and fracture, what goes into organizing, online v offline, how activism sometimes calls for annoying earnestness, etc.

The layoffs at the Washington Post have begun, with newsroom leaders telling employees its sports and books sections will be 'eliminated in current forms' and its international coverage will be downsized
