This week on Tech News of the Week, Chris and I dive into four fascinating stories from the world of tech: from the limits of human brains to the rise of WebAssembly. Plus, we get philosophical about the ephemeral nature of the internet and marvel at the future of coding with AI.

Don't forget to complete our listener survey at https://chaoslever.com/survey It takes just a few minutes, and your feedback helps us make this podcast even better—or at least gives us something to ignore with flair.

Here’s what we covered:

🧠 **Why Your Brain is Slower Than You Think**
Scientists reveal just how slow our thought processes are compared to our sensory input. Spoiler: Multitasking is still a myth.

🤖 **Free GitHub Copilot for All!**
Microsoft is giving free-tier GitHub users a taste of AI coding. Write broken code faster and maybe fix it later—if Copilot is feeling generous.

📜 **The Internet is Forever… Or Not**
Nearly 40% of web pages from 2013 are gone, taking valuable information with them. Should we start printing PDFs again?

🌐 **AMEX Goes Big with WebAssembly**
American Express is using WebAssembly and WASM Cloud at scale, possibly heralding a new era for functions-as-a-service platforms.
