No joke. I think this is the most important video I have ever seen about mobile games. This guy breaks down how this game psychologically profiles you, and makes the game harder or easier in order to show you ads

Yeesh. 👀 (Bloomberg) - The most likely long-term outcome of the AI boom will be massive capital destruction in the US, with market share going to cheaper open-source Chinese models, according to Jefferies Financial Group Inc. @bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Next week the City of Kirkland is poised to advance a rebrand for the neighborhood around its forthcoming inline BRT station at I-405 and NE 85th St, as "the Rise District." Also in contention: the Forge District and the Union District.
Aerial photo of the interchange being rebuilt with roundabouts in placeElevation, growth. Plateau is high ground.
● "We just broke ground on the Rise." "She works up on the Rise."
● Noun and verb.
● One syllable against Rose Hill, Norkirk, Juanita, Houghton,
Totem Lake, Bridle Trails, etc.
● Scales well: Rise Building, Rise Station, Rise Park.
● Plain enough that a bakery, gym, coffee shop can all carry it
without explaining it.Candidates: the Rise District, the Forge District, and the Union District

Someone needs to tell people that getting random checks isn't necessarily a good thing, ie the additional income could put them over income limits for other programs. I believe this happened with the COVID checks.

Dude had material for maybe 1.5 substack columns, so it’s only fitting that he’d go to Outkick. If anything, his exit from the Times only showed what Herculean work his editors there were doing for decades.

Chinook salmon have recolonised 88% of their historic range on the Klamath River, with more than 13,000 fish passing the old Iron Gate Dam site in 2025, up from 7,700 the year before. Two years after the dams’ removal, it’s going better than anyone predicted. buff.ly/pToC9gB #ShareGoodNewsToo

Feels like one of those things that they can actually overturn, since overturning it means the game was over. No need to replay anything.

So Meta will always choose to pay, rather than to fight, because then it doesn't have to change. The initial investigation by the FTC into Facebook's abuse of its users was *SEVENTEEN YEARS AGO*, and that one also ended in a settlement. After which, they... went back to abuse their users.
