Me comparten este mensaje que circula en WA entre habitantes de Sinaloa. La gente buena, implorando a los criminales que ya resuelvan sus diferencias. Obviamente, no tienen la más mínima confianza en la “autoridad”.

@JoJoFromJerz He should be

@PivotPod @karaswisher @Atlassian Thank you @karaswisher - you say exactly what’s on my mind 🙏🏻

"Make 'em vote. I told my sons if they didn't vote, they're not going to college next year." At our #SXSW live show, @KaraSwisher shared her tactic for getting young people to vote in the 2024 election. (Thanks to our presenting sponsor @atlassian)

A message for @KatieBrittforAL: APOLOGIZE.

@SheSpeaks222 It's been quite a while now what a pain

Uh oh... LinkedIn is down. 22,318 reports as of 3PM CT. #LinkedIn

@AZ_Brittney 100%

Dr. Fauci is a hero who saved countless lives! I will always support Dr. Fauci! Drop a ❤️ and Repost if you do too!

@PivotPod @karaswisher @profgalloway Another great episode 💪

Happy 2024! @karaswisher and @profgalloway couldn’t let another minute pass in the new year without commenting on all the big stories, so we’re dropping our latest episode a little early for you today. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/piv…

@mcuban Very thought full explanation. And yes, that's exactly right. It means EXPAND the pool so you find more candidates that are talented and fit for the job. Thanks for your leadership @mcuban

Since this seems to be the most common response. let me address it. DEI does not mean you dont hire on merit. Of course you hire based on merit Diversity - means you expand the possible pool of candidates as widely as you can. Once you have identified the candidates, you HIRE THE PERSON YOU BELIEVE IS THE BEST. What makes the whole " what about the players " comment ridiculous is that it's presumes that all positions are hired based on some quantitative rather than subjective version of merit. They aren't Even choosing the best basketball player is very much a guess. Which is why the best players weren't always the first pick in the draft and some go undrafted The reality is that most positions hired in a company don't have a quantitative metric you can use to hire someone. How do you pick the best barista, sales assistant, marketing or salesperson, etc More often than not it's an educated guess So when you see a company like @ibm say they want to add x percent more PoC or women or whatever group, they already know that the majority of positions they hire for don't have metrics for picking the best . As @elonmusk said "if merit for a job is roughly the same, then the tie reaker should be diversity (of all kinds)" Which is exactly what well managed companies choose to do DEI also does not mean you can't fire someone if you made a mistake. Of course you can. I'm a big believer in hire slow, fire fast. If it's the wrong person. Fire them. Finally. Let me address the thought that I'm "virtue signaling". I wrote this on @x because I knew very well that almost everyone on here would disagree with me. I don't virtue signal. I want people to challenge my positions. I want to have engaging discussions that help me learn.

I can't wait for this session tomorrow! #GHC23

So: Biden is 80. Trump is 77. Biden is lean, active, walks, bikes, does pilates. Trump is overweight, sedentary, rides a golf cart, eats fast food, has memory problems. Why are there dozens of stories on Biden's age and fitness but none on Trump's? It's media malpractice, right?

@JoJoFromJerz Stack the court

A man who is under investigation for inciting an attack against our country and is under indictment for stealing & mishandling our National security information, got to appoint 3 Justices to lifetime seats on our Supreme Court, and almost exactly one year after they helped to overturn 50 years of abortion rights for women, they have helped to overturn 50+ years of Affirmative Action for minorities.

I hereby propose a countdown for @elonmusk. The @RudyHavenstein account is the single best anti-establishment truth/art account on Twitter. He's currently banned, unfairly. Any serious admin would unban him if they have followed him for a long time. He's a good artist. Do it.

@joncoopertweets Outrageous

A road construction worker on Michigan’s I-96 project has a “Let’s Go Brandon” flag — MAGA’s code for a vulgar insult against Joe Biden — draped across his windshield. This is outrageous — especially considering that President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is PAYING FOR over 81% of the project’s total cost! Hey @MichiganDOT — why do you allow this? 🤨

It’s official. @Marvel’s Hero Project is off the @DisneyPlus platform. I hope the Marvel team finds a new home for the 20 episodes. Every young person who participated in the series poured out their heart into that project. Their stories deserve to live on.

@profgalloway Zero. None

No words

@SethAbramson @jurylady5 What an idiot Elon is. For a genius he’s certainly done everything he can to destroy his brand

@tedcruz 🤔 do you wear a seatbelt, Teddy?

Dems are nanny-state authoritarians. Personally, I don’t smoke cigarettes, but if you choose to do so, it’s your damn choice!
