A positive change for sure but what about the kids who were stunted developmentally during that time? In a nearby elementary school they are now touting teaching kids “AI literacy”. At an age where they don’t even have…
A friend of a friend has been in a rough patch with her spouse and has been discussing it all with ChatGPT. So far ChatGPT has pretty much enthusiastically encouraged divorce, which seems like it will happen soon. I…
Them being a charity isn't an automatic license to use anything on the internet?
I'm in a big city and that is certainly not the case. I can submit preferred locations but ultimately there is a very opaque selection process and there is no guarantee made other than a seat somewhere in the system. I…
In public schools the only way to "vote with your wallet" is to relocate, the next best option which is less disruptive to a family is to opt out of the school system if the means are available. What other options are…

The US federal budget deficit for the month of June was $228 billion. Money is being spent and the money printer is running no problem. The administration clearly does not view this as an important issue.
Who is “we”?
If there are “externalities” brought upon the state due to separations, ie strain on public services (crime, welfare programs, school, healthcare, etc) doesn’t the state have an incentive to do so? Playing devils…
Which company does Twitter use to send these SMS messages, Twilio?

Agree - any propagandist paying attention the last couple of years is acutely aware of the contemporary efficacy of labeling "Science" as a manipulative stiumuls. Run a few biased "analyses", pay for placement in a…
I think you're conflating short stints/job hopping and resume gaps. How does a "temporary period of non-employment" preclude someone from "providing more value to your company"? There are infinite reasons why someone…
That's true to some extent but has nothing to do with "resume gaps".
> a long gap is a warning flag on a resume. Sorry but it's not at all. How dare they not spend every waking moment wage slaving away! People live their lives, this type of thinking shouldn't be normalized. What other…
Not op - think it’s more along the lines of “humans evolved with nature as a constraint” and industrialization has the ability to remove that constraint.
VC got their IPO, thats all that ever mattered. it was kind of funny to see the PR campaigns ramp up - placement in news articles, podcast interviews with the founder, partnerships with fast food chains. after the smoke…

figma raised $330+ million over the years...have there been any public breakdowns of the VC/founder/employee equity split?
Just my opinion, but your original comment comes off as comically dismissive of what Figma has done. Adobe, a company with literal billions in cash and thousands of engineers, wagers 20 BILLION dollars that it is not…
