What you’re calling “work” may not be sitting around eating bonbons, but KK absolutely meets the definition of a socialite, and being a socialite and having a career are not mutually exclusive anyway. Lots of socialites use their social position as a launching pad for careers (interior decorator is a favorite), which…

I got a Cadillac El Dorado, if that answers your question.

Good thing many of the infrastructure components in use in the US come from China, and the Chinese would never do something like this, right?

You realize it’s still the drivers fault for hitting your tripod, right? Having someone else there is a good idea, but hardly shifts the blame from the person hitting onto the person doing their job.

having worked ENG and currently work in production...no. These lights are extremely noticeable and if nothing else the actual bloom from the light would have been very visible. The driver wasn’t paying attention, plain and simple.

“She also appeared to be reporting from the side of the road without any reflective clothing.”

Dude, you can still “build anything you can think of.” 

I loathe the gamification of education. Not all kids are competitive and earning badges is and extrinsic goal and not an indication of real learning. 

The last thing anyone needs is Gamers knowing their personal info.

If your gut reaction to this is to get defensive (like many people in the twitter replies) then it might be time to start examining your personal bias. 

I’m pretty anti-prison, and I want real criminal justice reform, so the idea of an 18 year old being warehoused and incarcerated for four years is not an appealing one to me either.  

what I want in my car is a dumb display and a bluetooth speaker system.

I’ll bring my own computation thank you very much.

If only the actual cars were stuck 20 years in the past as well...

It’s foreign to you, your understanding of NFTs is minimal. Just like older people who refuse to use or touch computers.

NFT bro makes a bunch of positive assertions about NFTs but provides no actual evidence to backup the assertions (other than the fact that blockchain games are slow and nothing new).  Sounds about right.

Besides the odd “All my apes gone.” to point and laugh at.

Those game currencies and their ecosystems don’t require the same energy a US household uses in two months several times a day. Nor are they part of a scheme that can be described as “the stock market, but with even faker money.” Nor are they dominated grifters utilizing the system for get-rich-quick BS.

cryptocurrency and NFTs are a scam.

Can somebody who’s smarter than me explain what this means?

““We must use our best judgement as there’s no ‘undo button’ in crypto,””

I thought the blockchain was supposed to be so important and good because it increases security in a provable way? Like, if you have all the receipts of the time a bad actor came to do…

I’m just going to say what we’re all thinking.
