Sucks man. I will only suggest that everything in life can and often does change.

Happy to chat bullshit or whatever. What’s your favorite dog?

We simply can’t leave until we get some wheeeaaat!

Interesting! Thanks for elaborating.

How is that better than a database? Is someone concerned that Walmart will fabricate supply chain tracking?

Can you name another technology that has such a high hype to delivered value ratio?

Dab pen and spice jars.

That’s basically enough to start a religion in medieval times. Spices to finance a nice temple, and dabs to create a religious experience forc prophets who testify to the power of the faith.

I agree completely!

Winchester?

Hot take: it was a valiant effort by people with tremendous power and influence to do the right thing with the wrong tools. Blackrock et al. tested the hypothesis that companies can generate greater returns by doing good. In doing so they risked their reputation and relationships with their investors.

We all learned together that their hypothesis is wrong. One cannot add a constraint (ESG etc) without compromising returns, and the big money piles operate with mandates to maximize risk-adjusted returns.

Or maybe we could work a unified coalition of voters around the implementation of a carbon tax, incremented over a period of years, to align those incentives?

Carbon tax! Carbon tax!!

Kitty History time!

Are all of these “moe” communities one artist?

No comment on the art, but the proliferation of basically the same content across dozens of communities is irritating. I’m tired of playing whac-a-moe.

Yes. This is the silent problem of enormous wealth inequality in the US. As the middle class disappears, fewer people are able to pay small fees to contribute to things like local news, community organizations, and online services.

That’s a shame. Thanks for giving it a try and reporting back!

This is good
