The prompt

I used to keep up with and I’ve let it slide since about . Back then I knew . Catch me up, and skip what I’d already know. Give me the five changes that matter most since then, as a table: what I’d have believed then, what people in the field think now, and how settled the change is. Then give me one open question worth getting curious about again. Search for current sources if you can and link them. Your own knowledge has a cutoff, so tell me roughly how recent it is, mark anything you couldn’t confirm, and name two places people in the field would send me to check.
