​​Nearly a decade of early Chinese internet content no longer exists Last week, a shocking revelation about the disappearance of Chinese internet content from the 2000s was promptly removed by content monitors in an attempt to manipulate collective memory. Despite this, the post, authored by internet influencer He Jiayan, quickly spread beyond China's controlled online platforms. He's essay highlighted the near-total erasure of content from major internet portals and private websites from the first decade of China's internet era. This disappearance was confirmed through searches for well-known figures like Jack Ma and Lei Jun, which yielded minimal results even on non-Chinese search engines. Several factors were cited for this mass deletion, including the evolution of internet technologies and the lack of archival initiatives in China. However, the primary reason was attributed to the Chinese Communist Party's strict control over historical narratives and public opinion. Despite efforts to silence He's post, the implications of this widespread content outage raise significant concerns about the role of the internet in shaping collective identity and the loss of historical records. As He noted, the disappearance of this content signifies a substantial gap in documenting the first two decades of the 21st century.

​​Mysterious Code in Ancient Assyrian Temples Can Finally Be Explained An ancient pictorial code that has intrigued experts for over a century may have been interpreted fully for the first time, giving us further insight into the mighty Assyrian empire that stretched across large parts of the Middle East from the 14th to 7th centuries BCE. In particular, these symbols relate to King Sargon II, who ruled from 721–704 BCE. In their short form, they comprise a lion, a fig tree, and a plough. In their longer form, there are five symbols in sequence: a bird and a bull after the lion, then the tree and the plough. These images appear in several places in temples in Dūr-Šarrukīn, which was briefly Assyria's capital. The buried ruins of the ancient city were excavated during the 19th and 20th centuries. But the meaning of the images – whether they represent gods, supernatural forces, the king's authority, or an attempt at Egyptian hieroglyphs – has long been debated. "This region of the world, which includes present-day Iraq and parts of Iran, Turkey and Syria, is often referred to as the 'cradle of civilisation'," says Assyriologist and historian Martin Worthington, from Trinity College Dublin in Ireland. "It is where cities and empires were born, and its story is a huge part of human history." Worthington has pulled together the clues to conclude that these pictures sound out Sargon's name, an idea first proposed (but not explored) in 1948. He expands on this suggestion by showing the symbols could also reference star constellations – the intent being to pay respects to the sovereign king by writing out his name in the stars and associating him with the gods. Importantly, the interpretation holds for both the long and the short forms of this graphical code. While previous theories have suggested the icons might refer to the king and to the night sky – not least because of the blue and yellow colors they were sometimes depicted in – this is the first research to systematically pull those ideas together. Worthington goes into detail in explaining the language used: how, for example, the Assyrian word for "tree" sounds similar to "jaw", which is the name of a constellation the people of the time would've been familiar with. What's more, these constellations were linked to ancient gods, further respecting Sargon. "The effect of the five symbols was to place Sargon's name in the heavens, for all eternity – a clever way to make the king's name immortal," says Worthington. "And, of course, the idea of bombastic individuals writing their name on buildings is not unique to ancient Assyria." Symbols of pacing lions would also have spelled out Sargon's name in ancient Assyrian – as well as having strong connections to royal figures – further confirming the link in the longer versions of this visual code. Although they might have now receded into the ancient past, Mesopotamian civilizations were hugely significant in many aspects of human history, meaning an improved understanding of how they lived, thought, and ruled is valuable. "The fact it works for both the five-symbol sequence and the three-symbol sequence, and that the symbols can also be understood as culturally appropriate constellations, strikes me as highly suggestive," says Worthington. "The odds against it all being happenstance are – forgive the pun – astronomical."

​​AstraZeneca withdraws Covid-19 vaccine AstraZeneca made headlines as it initiated the global withdrawal of its COVID-19 vaccine. This decision comes weeks after the pharmaceutical giant acknowledged the vaccine's potential to trigger a rare side effect known as Thrombosis with Thrombocytopenia Syndrome (TTS). Previously, AstraZeneca had admitted in court filings that its vaccine could lead to side effects like blood clots and low blood platelet counts. However, the company has now attributed its vaccine withdrawal not to the aforementioned side effects, but to an "oversupply of updated vaccines" since the pandemic. The company also announced its decision to revoke the vaccine Vaxzevria's marketing authorisations within Europe, noting that the oversupply has reduced the demand for Vaxzevria, which is no longer being produced or distributed. AstraZeneca collaborated with the University of Oxford to develop the Vaxzevria vaccine, while also partnering with the Serum Institute of India (SII), the world's largest vaccine manufacturer, to supply the Covishield vaccine to the Indian government. The UK-based pharma company is currently facing legal action alleging that its vaccine has caused deaths and severe harm to a few of those who received it. AstraZeneca initially denied a causal link between the vaccine and this particular side-effect, but later admitted in court documents that the vaccine could cause TTS in very rare cases. As many as 51 cases have reportedly been filed against AstraZeneca in the British High Court, with affected individuals and families seeking compensation totaling an estimated £100 million. P.S. Covering their tracks? Hopefully one day all those involved will be put in jail, or better yet, injected with their “vaccine” several times!
