In late 1971, Ray Tomlinson sat at two side-by-side PDP-10s in a Cambridge office and sent a message from one to the other across ARPANET, picking the @ symbol off his Model 33 Teletype because it was the only punctuation that couldn’t appear in a user’s name

On November 22, 1971, a 30-year-old BBN engineer named Ray Tomlinson stitched a file-transfer program to a local message tool and sent the first network email between two PDP-10s in the same Cambridge office. The separator he chose — the @ sign, picked because no human name could contain it — is now typed billions of times a day. Read more

Most people don’t realise the loneliest stretch of adulthood often arrives in the early 50s, when the children have left, the parents are still here but smaller, and nobody in the house is being raised anymore

The empty-nest narrative ends too soon. The lonelier stretch comes after — in the early 50s, when nobody in the house is being raised anymore and the cognitive patterns of the next thirty years are quietly being set. Read more

Rolex has no owner because of a 1945 foundation a grieving widower built after his wife died — and it’s now the company’s sharpest competitive weapon

When Hans Wilsdorf's wife Florence died in 1944, the Bavarian-born founder of Rolex built a Geneva foundation that has owned every share of the company since 1960.
