Today Harvard bestows six honorary degrees. When Ella Fitzgerald received hers in 1990, the crow’s foot mistakenly had only 2 loops. By 2017, Harvard corrected its error and now gives honorary doctors 3 loops.

Don’t worry: You aren’t yelling at clouds. (I can’t do anything about your age, alas.) Digital menus let the restaurant change prices on a whim, and push yesterday’s leftovers until they’re gone. They serve the owners, not the diners.
