I agree, based on this: My high-school aged son was taking two in-person community college classes this last semester. When the SIP hit, his Spanish class just "ended". Nothing online, nothing from his teacher, it was just over. H

Or, they could just stop the advertising because of budget issues. Supporting the boycott may be unpopular with some demographics. So maybe, just maybe, there's something to it.

What this poster said. Yes, a lot of smaller e-commerce platforms could do this, but finalizing order value can be a very complex workflow for bigger merchants with more varied sku mixes. I’ve worked in multi-billion dollar Ecom companies w

Been wondering if FB and other socials could move away from engagement volume-based advertising. Perhaps "low max # ads a day" kind of thing. It would hurt revenues, to be sure, but seems that Facebook already has outsized revenue

I'm definitely a "do something early in the morning" type -- whether it's working out or writing. I'd rather wake up early, do some writing, and then go for a workout afterwards. And to your point -- I'm one of

I'm a lifter who runs. Love both, but I found learning running form to be more challenging than learning how to squat or deadlift. I started off doing the Couch to #K programs, and they helped me commit to something without having to f

I couldn’t disagree more, having used it for myself, and having coached hundreds doing it as a personal trainer. An individual who employs reasonable practices well can thrive using this modality. EDIT: IIFYM is “act, measure, adjust” using

We have data on the incarceration rates of Americans as a whole, versus other countries. I think the current activist climate is in response to the fact that the status quo is built on the premise that all that befalls the troubled populati

Things I've wanted from Spotify, or from another platform: * Album playlists, with "shuffle by album/entry" * Disable song in album * Tags for albums/tracks, sort by tags * Genre block lists (they have artist block

I was wondering why you were getting downvoted, and perhaps because the target link describes something a little bit more nuanced than that. "The government can also get older unopened emails without notifying the customer if they get

Super interesting. But after visiting the Beeline Reader website, I'm puzzled by: * There's no Wordpress plugin. * There is javascript, but you have to contact them about it. * Their pricing/FAQ section isn't in Beelin

I use Mailplane for when I want to see all my email accounts, and Spark when I want to deal with all email accounts together. Each work Chrome profile has a pinned Gmail and, maybe, a Slack. So I can be universal, or targeted, where I want

I'm simply stating the charging for the updates probably won't generate the $ that was suggested as an incentive to produce the updates.

I use Safari for personal surfing, and separate Chrome accounts for my various business/work related surfing. Keeps things separate and tidy, and I keep Chrome closed as much as I need it to be closed.

I've recently been bothered because I hate all my email clients (except Outlook, weirdly enough, but I don't want to use Outlook with my Gmail accounts, because tag support isn't awesome...) and realized, of course, half my p

Used to be normal to pay for things like that, and so people didn't update for security, and the world of devices/machines was less secure.

It’s a spark, of the sort that didn’t exist a while ago. Could turn into a real fire. I hope it’s not an overstated headline, and I’m willing to wait, and help if I can, make it a firestorm.

I really enjoyed it. First keynote in a few years I’ve watched all the way through. I liked the production, too.

I wouldn't include/exclude anything related... I did some graduate work in a somatic psychotherapy program for students intending to go into clinical settings, or therapy practices. That said, the friendliest way to get started in

CBT, somatic psychotherapy and mindfulness are all modalities that ask you to see things as they really are, so that you can break through false beliefs. Somatic psychotherapy is interesting in that it allows you to find the physical armori

An account that is closed feels different than an account you don't use. At least to me.

True. And worth considering. But it's not like I'm challenged by a corner case of their product offer. It's the whole creamy middle. I'm inclined to want out.

I deleted LinkedIn about 5 years ago when I went totally independent. I was super happy not to have it. I recently re-created it because a consulting engagement put me back in the center of "Are you on LinkedIn?" discussions. I do

Also worth nothing: managers often can't actually fire their direct reports. Managers may have to go up reporting chains and possibly HR for that. It's a terrible joke, nonetheless.

My family watches CinemaSins. Instances of racial depictions are often tagged with a verbal, "That's racist!" when, sometimes, it's "race-ial" content or even the mere mention of race. "-ist/-ism&quot

If you can get an offer from Facebook you can probably get offers from less problematic companies, since you’re already acknowledging the moral hazard. Me personally? Never.
