An excellent piece on the challenges of mortality data in the US. Read @us.theconversation.com article, and then read the academic pub: dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/...

I haven't found corroboration of this exact list yet, but this does appear to be legitimate, per Nature. Apparently "around 10,000 research grants have been flagged for review and distributed to various programme directors"--in OTHER directorates. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

My favorite slide from a talk I gave this week about the launch of the Digital Legacy Clinic (@digital-legacy.bsky.social) at @cuboulder.info. I wasn’t certain if I had done enough research, but a year ago Liz Gerber gave me the right push at the right time. Grateful for her support! #digitallegacy

Great news for Ancestry. And I’ll admit I’m touched whenever companies decide to also call their service Legacy Contact.
Ancestry has added the capability to designate a "Legacy Contact" when you pass away. The person "will be able to take over and make decisions for your account once we’ve confirmed you’ve passed away" as described in the article. 😎
