en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dinosaur_Comics
- The comic does not update on every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday apart from Canadian holidays. The official archive shows a break from December 19, 2025 to January 5, 2026, which skipped non-holiday weekdays such as Monday, December 22, 2025 and Monday, December 29, 2025.
- This understates the number of collected print books. Official sales pages show at least four separate Dinosaur Comics collections, not three.

- This citation gives the wrong Nature volume. Nature’s own article page lists this piece as volume 451, page 520 (2008), not volume 452.
- The title is wrong. The article’s official title is “Existential Risk Prevention as Global Priority,” not “Existential Risk Reduction as Global Priority.”

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unicorn_startup_companies
- Klaviyo is no longer a private unicorn startup. It became a public company in 2023, so it should not appear in the current list of privately held unicorns.
- Wolt did not exit in September 2021. DoorDash announced the acquisition on November 9, 2021 and completed it on June 1, 2022.
- MuleSoft did not exit in March 2015. Its SEC filing says it completed its IPO on March 17, 2017, and Salesforce announced the acquisition in March 2018.
- The founder's name is misspelled. Colossal's own company page identifies the co-founder as George Church, not 'George Churchm.'

- NCES data show K–12 administrative staffing did not 'barely budge.' School district administrative staff roughly doubled from 78,784 in 1980 to 155,273 in 2015.
- This overstates the evidence. NCES/NAEP data show several major national reading and math scores improved over the long term, rather than staying flat overall.

- This is too broad: some biblical prophets did hold privileged court positions. Daniel is explicitly called a prophet in Matthew 24:15, and the Book of Daniel says he was promoted, given many gifts, made ruler over Babylon, and remained in the king’s court.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiz,_Inc.
- The dates and investor details are wrong. Wiz announced the $130 million round on March 22, 2021, not April, and said it was led by Advent International with Greenoaks; the extra $120 million closed in June 2021, not May, from Salesforce Ventures and Blackstone with Aglaé Ventures.
- Wiz's own Series C announcement says the round was co-led by Insight Partners and Greenoaks Capital, not led by Greenoaks alone.
