Hello, rich? @AttitudesPod focusses on LGBT and gender issues from a US perspective, though @bryansafi talking about Strictly is a delight. He and @gibblertron are informative and very entertaining. Start with this vintage episode they re-shared recently: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/attitudes/id479583266?i=1000534767858

"You made your point" actually means "I can see now that you actually understand your worth, and I can no longer bully you into continuing to be exploited."

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") replied to a tweet by @polotek:

What kills me about the manager person in this exchange is when they keep saying "you've made your point". Like they were playing a game of chicken. The employee threatens to quit, and the manager calls their bluff by continuing to exploit them and daring them to quit.

@polotek ("Marco Rogers") wrote:

This is wild. We probably don't do enough to unpack what it means when we say "know your worth". It's not just some high minded ideal. It means your labor is important to business operations. You need to find out just *how* important.

Someone resigned from his job via email and posted the subsequent text exchange with his ex-boss on Reddit. 😂😂😂 I'm not on Reddit, but his SO posted it in a Facebook group I'm in.

The early dream of the internet was removing artificial scarcity in an environment where the marginal cost of copying things is basically 0, it’s sad to see it devolve into propertarianism

NFTs = digital status 🧵

Until now, it’s been impossible to show off status online.

NFTs changed that by bringing scarcity online.

It's not that we "don't understand" NFTs or Lamborghini's. We do understand and still think it's absurd.

@JasonYanowitz ("Yano") replied to a tweet by @JasonYanowitz:

3/ This is also why people don't understand NFTs.

It's no different than not understanding why people spend $400,000 on a Lamborghini.

To most, that seems absurd.

But to the Lamborghini owner, it's a way to show off their status AND hang out with a like-minded community.

n.b. for almost a decade, there was a steady whoosh of talent into facebook, with an accompanying drumbeat of "they'll help fix things from the inside"

spoiler alert, that was absolutely wishful thinking

funny/sad to see the same happening with structurally dirty crypto plays

I re-upped this yesterday for 💀reasons💀, and then was pinged by others asking if I was subbing unrelated but rhyming situations

Takeaway being, a *lot* of notable (and previously ~widely respected) people are crossing the street to get fat crypto bags

Kid loves doing numbers but his iPad apps have too many slow animations and doing it by hand on paper, while important to learn, frustrates him by being slow and making writing mistakes.

This few line program is a nice change.

I might need to put more effort into it!
