Not really sure what you're thinking here, but anything one can do to expose data, and make it visible could be helpful. Many decisions aren't made simply because the right information is not available.

Have you read the book? It would likely give you some good talking/discussion points...such as "FB intentionally let genocide happen. Do you think we should support them with our time?"

We can't give up our power just because the situation is difficult. We need to assert as much power as possible. Organize; talk openly about the problem; coordinate plans for voting (yes, I know its early). Pressure politicians. There

Why would you need to replace the batteries? Do they fail outright at around 10 years, become unsafe, or do they just lose capacity? Curious! Even if they're at 50% capacity, they would still work, right? But if there are other conside

To be clear, I see a lot of "magical thinking" among people who promote AI. They imagine a "perfect" AI tool that can basically do everything better than a human can. Maybe this is possible. Maybe not. However, it's
