"But when we think about California’s geology, most of us probably imagine the Sierra Nevada’s towering granite peaks, the pent-up force of the San Andreas Fault, or the fact that Lassen Peak is still an active volcano. Those places grab our attention. Yet when […] [Original post on sfba.social]

TIL there's a "bubbling under" chart list with songs that don't quite make the Billboard Hot 100. The always delightfully nerdy Tedium publication explains: tedium.co/2026/01/19/billboard-bubb…

1959
The first year that the Bubbling Under chart appeared next to the Hot 100, about a year after the release of the first chart. Originally featuring 15 additional songs, it was intended as a way to highlight emerging hits, which at the time, tended to blow up regionally before going national. It was a chart for potential sleeper hits. In the early years, the chart was full of songs that didn’t quite set the world ablaze. The second place song on the original June 1, 1959, chart, The Eternals’ “Rockin’ in the Jungle,” is an excellent example of this challenge in action. The song appeared on the Bubbling Under chart for a couple of weeks, then on the lower reaches of the Hot 100 for a few weeks, then it disappeared for good. Classic Bubbling Under chart arc.

In a world with a lot of not-great news, it's good to see that despite ourselves green power is winning, just by being the cheapest. Much appreciation to those engineers and companies who have worked to make it so. www.science.org/content/article/bre…

#tech HP: “We are a technology company born of the belief that companies should do more than just make a profit. They should make the world a better place. Our efforts in climate action, human rights, and digital equity prove that we are doing everything in our power to make it so.” Also HP:

HP, the Silicon Valley maker of computers and printers, deliberately adds 15-minute wait times to telephone- support calls to nudge customers to hang up and try solving their own problems, according to internal memo. Under the policy, which was recently rolled out in European countries, HP's “interactive voice response” system warns callers of "high call volumes" while urging them to seek help online instead, even when agents are available.

ANNOUNCEMENTS

AP statement on

Oval Office access

The Associated Press issued this statement on Tuesday

from Executive Editor Julie Pace: As a global news organization, The Associated Press informs billions of people around the world every day with factual, nonpartisan journalism. Today we were informed by the White House that if AP did not align its editorial standards with President Donald Trump's executive order renaming the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America, AP would be barred from accessing an event in the Oval Office. This afternoon AP’s reporter was blocked from attending an executive order signing. It is alarming that the Trump administration would punish AP for its independent journalism. Limiting our access to the Oval Office based on the content of AP's speech not only severely impedes the public’s access to independent news, it plainly violates the First Amendment.

AP'’s guidance on the Gulf of Mexico and Trump's executive

order regarding the name is available here.
