“i’m 30+ what would i even talk to a 20 year old abt” literally anything bro that is also an adult. i think u guys r spending too much time on the internet.

Meta's glasses earned the nickname "pervert glasses" for a reason. A journalist wore them and said they made her START THINKING like a creep. The privacy implications go way deeper than you'd expect, and I covered the problems in our latest video: youtu.be/gGliQhv1QCU

sabrina commissioning a whole stop motion animation for just a social media post… the budget must be thru the roof

A student today at my elite university admitted to me today that she took a class so she could work on reading for more than 20 minutes at a time. She can't read. She mainly skims and summarizes, she says and still gets A's. This student is, by professional standards, illiterate. Gonna have high GPA when she graduates. This conversation was had after 6 of 22 students dropped my course because the maximum reading per week in one week was over 100 pages. What people aren't grasping is that this is literally *dangerous*. These people are going to be come doctors, engineers, etc. They are - by any metric - vastly less capable than prior generations. These effects are cumulative over a lifetime. This grade inflation is part of the problem, but not even close to the entirety. And the problem obviously starts in K-12. Students don't know history because, you can't actually become historically literate on the advice of 'never assign more than 30 pages a week'. You can't develop any of the skills that came with literacy. This is, quite honestly, a civilizational catastrophe.

There's a lot of cope about the NYT only thriving because of recipes and games. The question is: Why was NYT able to build out these non-news revenue streams? It's because the newspaper has an incredible brand, such that it could be extensible.
