So, the squarespace one I think was automatically added when I connected my account to it. The "humanreadablemag.com" one I guess was there before I connected squarespace and is used for "www".

I guess I should delete the latter? I don't want to do anything stupid and bring the site down :/

As far as I can tell, you can delete either one of the CNAME records, since both of their targets have the same set of A records. But if you really want to be sure, your hosting provider (Squarespace in this case) should have explicit instructions on how to configure your DNS records.

I removed the non-squarespace one and everything seems fine. How do I check if the issue you found is resolved?

Yes, seems fine now.
