2026-09-24 digest
2 items on this page: 1 with their own page, 1 short.
A digest puts the short items from one day or one week on a single page. Opened alone, those briefs are often a headline and a sentence, which is a poor fit for a standalone article. Items that meet the importance threshold keep their own pages and are listed here by title.
