I would argue though that the borrowers were not dumb. An entire generation of people told them “you have to do whatever it takes to go to college so you can get a good job” - that was a lie, and the people who told the lie should be the ones punished. The kids who trusted their parents, teachers, and government about this didn’t do anything wrong.
They’d have to change the law Biden personally made that prevents student loans from being removed in bankruptcy proceedings.
That would also fuck millions of American’s credit and lead to all kinds of problems in the economy. Letting everyone go bankrupt is not an acceptable government solution, they need to do something better.
Their core products meaning search and email, sure. Everything else is on the chopping block and randomly changes all the time.
Remember when they bought Nest and literally bricked everyone’s thermostats? Tasks / reminders / whatever gets completely reworked every other year. They went through a chat phase where they released half a dozen different, incompatible chat apps, and also wrote a chat sub-system into every other app they had.
They’re lunatics. If all they want to do is search and email, just do that, don’t waste time and consumer patience branching out into all these random things they’ll drop support for in two years.
Because then someone else would be able to control and censor their content. Really every business should make their own server to ensure that they’re the ones fully in control of their content - this is the entire point of federation.
what did these protests change so far?
They pushed people to other platforms.
But we don’t live directly on top of the ground; we live 5 or 6 feet above the ground, and thus air temperature is much more important to understanding heat impacts to human health and well-being.
Here’s an article talking about the types of temperature measurements. If LST is high, odds are air temperature will be high to, and air temp is much more relevant to our life as a human, whether we’re going to die, and easy to compare to how hot it is locally.
Yeah, it’s confusing and unhelpful. People should standardize on reporting air temperature unless there’s a very specific and compelling reason not to.
They’re one of the least reliable companies out there. Every other product gets cancelled within 2 years, and they’re constantly making major redesigns for no reason.
I think there’s a lot of value to the algorithm, but it needs to be based on real engagement rather than arbitrary bullshit that a soulless corporation wants to promote.
I subscribe to a lot of people, but not all of their content is worth seeing. Having it curated down to just the stuff that’s actually popular can be nice. It’s definitely tricky to make that work in a fair and useful way though.
The data simply does not support that hypothesis.
The majority of degrees are in valuable and complex fields, the meme of everyone getting degrees in underwater basket weaving are not based in reality.
