Reddit doesn’t use algorithmic curation (or pretends not to?) but it’s one of the most polarized sites I’ve ever used. Blaming machine learning or misinformation is just a comforting and easy way to dismiss real problems.

This assumes that the nonprofit has the same goals as the donor so it’s not always true. Maybe that would be covered by the umbrella organization bit, but sometimes there’s no organization that cares so donors need to leverage existing ones

Do low income families rent houses in the suburban parts of the bay? I’m curious if these people are actually poor or if it’s a situation where a lot of them are accidental real estate millionaires who just don’t want to move away

I don’t understand how it’s even possible for the Bay Area to have non-homeless poor people.

If everyone was perfectly equal in every way except appearance, then it would just be the most attractive men forming harems instead of the most wealthy.

The unfortunate reality of sexual freedom is that most men would never be freely chosen for casual sex. The only reason they historically got laid was because of social and economic pressure against women. I don’t think it’s possible to hav

The point is that every woman can easily find casual sex so opting out is a choice.

The obvious reason is that in a perfectly efficient sexual market the biggest stud has sex with all the women. Most men are unattractive so they don’t get to participate in casual sex. Instagram and Tinder mean there’s no such thing as just

I don’t think this is true. I personally think of it as “going sicko mode”, and it’s the difference between writing as fast as I can for 2 hours straight during an exam, and putting in half as much effort during an entire work day. I can th

I can see why. Some people think it’s wrong not to include diverse characters, and others think it’s wrong to speak for other races (ex. colour matching voice actors to their characters). If you’re a white person who wants to write a book t

Changing the way the fund managers look is the easiest way to project a progressive image without actually doing anything meaningful. It’s great for the brand.

I don’t really get how this is possible. They should be able to take out a loan against the property to pay for any expenses, and just sell it at the end to pay off debts if they need to once this is over. They’re upset about lost income bu
