A person living from 1970s to today also went from "having to go to the library or ask someone with domain knowledge about any tidbit" to "being able to find a near-infinite amount of domain knowledge with a pocket-sized gadg

I absolutely love Jacaranda trees, and I find myself saying the word a few times a day. Better at a distance though.

I know it's not your main point, but writing for magazines is almost one of the only viable ways to "make it" as a writer/journalist nowadays. Far better than papers/online outlets most of the time.

The outcry on this issue has caused me to believe American society is too far divided. Full disclosure, I'm not white. But across a few social media/discussion platforms I more or less saw the same people who cry out about AI dail

It is structured this way intentionally. No industry is perfect, working as a journalist sucks ass on purpose.

Developing countries are quite different from the USA (which I understand isn't everyone's frame of reference, but is mine). My family is from a developing nation, I was told explicitly as a child to focus on education to try to m

"The risk is that students think they’re bad at math, while in fact they’re bad at mindlessly memorizing and applying formulas. The same way we could totally miss out having students never discovering their artistic talents if art clas

Thumbnails with the creator's face are proven to attract more views. The stupid expression seems to enhance that effect.

Says who? Dozens or hundreds or thousands of people putting pressure on a company to act right when they screw over a customer is good, actually.

Valid yes, but with any sort of volume in hands the pro/shark is going to rob the amateur blind.

Aside from a handful of pitched perfect games and Game 7 of the 1991 World Series? IMO it's Go. It's simple enough that a child will spend more time learning how to hold a stone than the objective, but complex enough that concepts

because advertising and marketing are still very much industries where your "face card" matters and where companies will spend millions of dollars elsewhere if Chet from Advertising gets laid off.

Virtually any 3D printer that isn't bottom-barrel Amazon crap can print off a pistol lower. So the same item that one can buy in 49 other states at Micro Center or via Amazon now requires the same process as acquiring a firearm -- anot

Honestly, it depends on your budget and the features you want. My main workhorse right now is a Sovol SV06, one of the "it girl" printers of 2022. I own the Sovol, an Ender 3 v2, a Mingda Magician X and an AnyCubic Kobra Go. All o

I remember my old Windows Phone used the headphones/headphone jack to give you FM radio.

Radio isn't valuable to listeners or competitive because of the music. Even top 40/pop stations are "relevant" to their listeners because of in-person events, giveaways, sports coverage, etc. Hence why the biggest statio
