There's definitely a lot of variation among the parents at my kid's Mandarin immersion school.
it fascinates me how most everyone in the U.S. does turkey for Thanksgiving, but we are all over the map as to what we eat for Christmas (as is proper for a hugely diverse nation).
I come from a Christmas prime rib roast family, myself.

I also use the bacon method. Although turkey is Christmas dinner where I come from.

If I had money to give to ruffle.rs I would do so for no other reason than it has made the return of Homestarrunner possible in its original medium.

This is what I spent most of last week working on with other people who cannot leave this stuff alone. Gotta put the facts in order in a stable place and then see what meaning emerges.
The fight against authoritarianism has many fronts. At Unbreaking, we choose to work against information overload and for collective understanding. On our Immigration timeline, we track major and representative events from across the US—now filterable by legal case:

I just don't think that attention economies are fundamentally capitalist. These incentives exist for any collective action in an adversarial ecosystem. KPIs and earnings reports are _a_ problem but not the only one.
Take it further. Why is there an engagement KPI important to these companies? Because they sell advertising against it. And they do that because of capitalism. The core problem is an insufficiently strong/competent political system that can curb the excesses of capitalism for the public good.
Engagement KPIs have been responsible for infinite scroll UI traps, RecSys radicalization spirals, public shame brigades, and basically every modern ailment novel to the past decade. At some point, you have to recognize that the problem isn't any one technology, it's the metric.

My favorite piece of content today.
Jay Rosen used to talk about heading towards a hybrid professional/amateur ecosystem in the news. And it turns out that was right but the industry just decided to jettison all the professionals.
Ryan Lizza is doing with his Substack what YouTubers have already perfected: taking serious allegations they’re personally involved with and turning them into melodrama to deflect from any of their own culpability and wrongdoing and monetize the shit out of it. Not journalism plus it’s embarrassing

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.
