  1. The early XY advantage.

    A friend in education relayed some direct experiences they had with two children from the same family.

    The girl needed some additional resources to get to the reading level she needed to be. The parents answer was "nope, she doesn't need it."

    A couple years later, their boy comes through the same classroom and receives the same assessment. "Get him everything he needs to catch up" said the parents.

    Subtle oppression, anyone?

    Here is what got my attention;
    "is important because the IRS allows such mega-cars to be deducted as a business expense in the year they're put into service instead of depreciated slowly over time"
    Am I to understand that if I buy a small efficient car, say an #aptera, I don't get to call it a business expense.

    #whatTheHell #wth There is so much wrong with that.

    #democracy is more than how we vote!

  5. FB just offered me an ad titled "Learn ChatGPT in just 4 weeks!"

    I have so many questions.

    Like, is the course taught by ChatGPT? Is the material about ChatGPT written by ChatGPT? Does it come with a certificate? Is there an exam? How do I know the material written by ChatGPT about ChatGPT is accurate?... Does it matter?...

  6. Wofür so ein Fahrradhelm doch gut sein kann. Schiesst mir doch eine Taube aus der Balustrade direkt an die Hirse... #Whatthehell

  7. I'm developing a REAL PROBLEM with people who share voice notes or images instead of text.

    Example 1) Dr's receptionist sends me a looooooooong voice note of office noise, and somebody reading her a number, which she then repeats to me, quickly followed by a text that says "that's the authorisation number".

    Umm. OK. Why not just text me the number? Since you sent me a text anyway?

    Example 2) Neighbourhood trustees share all their communications in the Whatsapp group as images of text on a pretty background, so we can't copy numbers or addresses, or easily search for a particular message.

    When I query this, the head of the trustees tells me "just do an image search"

    And when I query that he sends me a screenshot of how to access media posted in the group.

  9. Ich hab mangels Alternative gerade online was mit @Klarna bezahlt und zu spät gesehen, dass ich mit einem TAN nicht etwa die Zahlung, sondern eine äußerst fragwürdige Anfrage lautend auf "Kontoeinsicht bewilligen" bestätigt hab #whatthehell

    Bitte dringend um Erklärung @AskKlarna

  10. More than 2 hours were needed to agree on a single parameter name 😂
