None of these people have ever satisfactorily explained why members every human society, when given the chance, will flee in droves from the supposed pre-industrial agrarian paradise to work 70 hours a day in the hand amputation factory and consider it a step up.

Honestly kind of wild to watch the walls close in on someone without them *realizing* that the walls are closing in on them. Y'all are the point men on losing a war which could cause a deep global recession. *You* are the fall guys and your thought is, "man, we need to get Big Balls in here."

Oracle's construction progress across our Al data centers remains on schedule and on plan.
We're also rolling out local workforce trainings, subcontractor engagement efforts, and technical skilling programs - in classrooms and through on-the-job training - to ensure that the thousands of good-paying jobs we're creating can be filled by local workers as much as possible.

Instead he lost his work credentials and now kids are dying needlessly all over the world, so great job everyone.

Any halfway sane administration (or regime) would want to move heaven and earth to make the bad videos out of Minneapolis stop - confirming a narrative (ICE out of control!) is more potent and easier than creating one. But this is the Trump administration and they just aren't that competent.

Historians believe the ‘Mini-polis’ or ‘small-city’ to be an allegorical or metaphorical place, possibly an agglomeration of several different cities, given the unlikelihood of so many significant events occurring rapidly in such a small place.

You need to flip this on its head. If you advocate for violent resistance, or even carrying weapons, you are being selfish, placing your own desire for cathartic violence above the needs of your community. You are selling out the vast majority, who will become targets as a result of your actions.

People on NextDoor frequently think that the reason cities keep recklessly adding speed bumps is because we've defunded the police. All time I see requests for more traffic enforcement. Reality: Police and Fire take up 50% of most city budgets. In Redwood City, it is already 57%!

One of the other great advantages of liberalism is that we're able to read graphs and so can notice that the share of humanity in extreme poverty has declined massively over the last 200 years.

A chart showing the number of people living in extreme poverty vs. the number not, from 1820 to 2015. The green share not in poverty grows rapidly, while the brown share in extreme poverty begins to shrink rapidly in the late 1900s.

I think I'd put "crazy thing Herotodus wrote being true" at maybe closer to 50/50, but that's still turned out to be *much* higher than we would have credited him pre-archaeology. The value of archaeology (and sources in languages not Latin/Greek) to confirm/disconfirm our sources is significant!

I get the sentiment, but, if you look at the studios being shuttered, it's mostly teams that were left to do what they wanted and wasted years without really progressing towards viable games. Microsoft has gone from micromanaging studios to being too hands off.

The administration's line is, "nonono, these weren't 'war plans' these were 'attack plans' and that is very different and how dare you mix that up." Honestly, I think the American people work hard and deserve better liars than this.

A screencap from Twitter in which White House spokesperson Taylor Budowich lies, saying, "The Atlantic has already abandoned their bullshit “war plans” narrative, and in releasing the full chat , they concede they LIED to perpetuate yet ANOTHER hoax on the American people.

What scumbags!"
