I said it elsewhere in the thread, but I think you've keyed in on it with "responsibility". It would be interesting to study teens that have younger siblings that they have to take care of. Surely they hate it, but I would be

That's intriguing enough that it might stick with me. Thanks!

My pet theory on teens, and one I'm brainstorming for my own kids, is that they don't have enough meaningful responsibility within their families or communities. Somehow I want to find them work that is critical for the family and

There’s a lot of talk about the dangers of “inflammation” but I’ve failed to find a good list of actions one can take to fight it.

How can we get young people a better concept of money and wealth quantities and trajectories? I remember having the light bulb go off for me—previously I had zero clue and tried not to worry about—that most of those around me doing very wel

News outlets should self-report any threats to their integrity, thereby protecting themselves from any blowback by oligarchs.

I’m glad you’re out of the woods. Do you think kids can be raised to be strong enough to befriend those with differences rather than pile on and abuse them? I’d like to think yes.

I’m afraid to ask, but is it possible this is more common as a U.S. phenomenon?

It screams “impending doom” to me.

A lot of news stories in the past year have given me definitive direction in terms of how to spend my time politically. How to vote, which meetings to go to (redistricting, canvassing, etc.) More generally, I think they’ve all contributed t

At the same time, those workers don’t have any conception of the hard work that goes into actual leadership. Life is so complicated.

This is pretty much all there is to it. Perhaps study others closely as well.

Wow, those might actually fit in my ear, unlike every other bud Apple ever produced.

Could make some song lyrics out of that, am I right, Ol’ Wheeler?

Same. Absolutely galling.

That might be more in the "very low" segment. At any rate, the point stands in my experience; so many of the whims and desires my partner and I have been able to cater to for our kids come from our privileged ability to do so, and

If they need $50B to make space and then place themselves in the electric car market, then I suppose that explains Tesla's difficult task.

The Wilmington Insurrection is comparable and similarly unknown. Totally shameful, both that they happened and further that we aren't taught. The Wilmington Insurrection is comparable and similarly unknown. Totally shameful, bothxrhat

Thank you for the most appropriate response I can imagine to this “power is everything” sort of sentiment.

Very nice! It might slightly more comfortable to play if the dealer and player were differentiated better. Is the source code available?

The massively disappointing thing about modern food halls is that they aren’t like classic ones in Seattle, Toronto, or other places where you can actually get groceries. There should be, at minimum, local bread, meat, produce, and dairy at

I’ve asked before, but never got a good idea. How should a lay person best understand law without becoming a lawyer? What do we read? Where is a good course?

If Mastodon is truly decentralized, then someone ought to be able to leverage the identities (and possibly other data) in it to create a tool that has more Facebook-like features for this wanting something different than a Twitter clone. Is

I suppose there is a lesson in there that one should think hard before violating mores, but I agree jumping on a bandwagon to shit all over what's been an important legacy is pathetic.
