Community is the thing that is needed most. Always, but especially in times like this.
Describing it as a needless party is missing the entire point.

I did this when Covid vaccines were first rolling out. The page that presented the scheduling form was absolutely slammed, but the form submission itself was wide open; a simple POST call.
Had friends circulate a Google form where qualifying folks (elderly, vulnerable) could…

Why the insistence on the kids becoming adults as soon as possible? It's kindergarten. Socializing is the thing. Getting to be a kid is the thing.
@chatgpttrader
What makes this overall thesis kinda boring is that it's only using data on what has already happened (news + finances). That means everything will be priced in, and it's why we see its choices being exactly what anyone would choose.
Would be much more interesting to have…

All customers in Salesforce have a combined pipeline total of $800TN,
Yet Salesforce only does $35B a year, a measly 0.4% conversion rate!
How are they still in business??
@garius
What a thread!
Describing anything these days as a "superstore" conjures images of K-Mart and dead malls. Not an exciting vision of the future.

@EdenicJesus
his statements about health and longevity are some of the worst broscience I've ever heard.
Even his own doctors are like "yeah it's not really a marker of anything, but this guy is paying me $300K to collect his piss bottles so 🤷♀️"

How is anyone supposed to tell the difference?
"Oh I can tell that datejust you're wearing was gifted to you by your dad who died of cancer. My condolences. I will spare you from my gatekeepery."
A nice watch is a nice watch, for any reason.

so if you ever go into a McDonald's, do you insist on ordering "two all-beef patties, special sauce,
lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun." and not a Big Mac?

Sounds a lot like the failed "zero tolerance" policies that high schools pushed for decades, where the person getting bullied would get suspended if they defended themselves.
It didn't work for high schoolers. Why would it work here?
@OnlyCFO
Benioff privately DMing folks is a pretty cool, even if it's just in service of exploiting a weak moment among a pool of AI talent.
I certainly wouldn't try to DuNk on him for it
@zachweinberg
Agree 100% with this sentiment.
But it's always been this way. MIT's top 1% were recruited by FB and Google to exploit customer data and make ad tech.
Before that, Wall Street quants making algos more efficient. They were the best mathematicians in school.
Ultimately whoever…

Lemme just get a few good hours of sleep.
Then a venti latte.
Maybe one of those cake pops.
Scroll Twitter for a bit.
Eat a danish.
Take a walk in the park.
Have a late lunch.
I'm sorry what were we talking about?

Myers-Briggs was invented by a mother-daughter team (agriculture majors) who thought a book by Carl Jung was neat.
Scientists universally agree that MB is a fortune cookie with extra steps.
That said, where ma INTJs at????
@Austen
Endowments aren’t a huge pool of funds that can be pulled at any time. Most of it is earmarked for specific things, to be deployed over a time.
That $100M donation probably comes with requirements, like “must be used for breast cancer research over the next 5Y.” Hardly a waste.
@levelsio
That's going backwards. Instead of content being semantic, it's locked behind a big empty viewport? That's what killed Flash.
All for... parallax effect?
For in-browser gaming, this is cool. For traditional apps? It breaks all browser conventions for special effects.
@TimBishman
Whoosh.
It's a tongue in cheek way of saying you're a car person.
You spend all of your money on your car, so none left for rent.
Not literal

@businessbarista
WRONG.
If you are laughing and smiling you are NOT working. You need to be heads down answering emails and actively frowning to achieve the proper tone for these end times.
@Molson_Hart
I know at least part of this story is untrue based on what you're describing and actual procedures. They're in conflict.
What purpose does this story serve?
@devahaz
he got a report from IT that said 30 laptops hadn’t been opened. Out of a 2000 person company, what are the odds that 20 are on mat/pat leave and/or short/long term disability?
