There was reason to believe Lennon and McCartney would never sing together again. In 1980, John Lennon was murdered outside the great haunted house that is New York’s Dakota building–shot dead by a fan one of the singer’s old friends refers to, with a shiver, as the Man Whose Name We Must Never Mention. But last year Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr convened at McCartney’s studio outside London and set about completing an old, unfinished Lennon tune called “Free as a Bird....

While standard computers encode data as Os and Is, DNA uses four molecules, designated A,T, C and G. The idea is to string together the A’s, T’s, C’s and G’s in sequences that represent numbers or other information; the DNA strands react in a test tube, creating a molecule whose ATCG sequence is the answer....

He’s dubious of the rhetoric that hypes the digital age as a philosophical creed rather than just something to make life easier.
