Hi. HELLO. About that BOI filing that some of you are starting to receive notices about - double check that letter/email/phone call for details because it could be a scam.
To be clear, filing a BOI is a legit thing that some businesses will need to do, but the FILING IS FREE

Here's a different kind of holiday salad for the non-traditionalists among us. Every bite should be fresh, slightly tart, and thanks to the beans, a little creamy. Raw Beet Salad with White Beans, Pomegranate Seeds, and Black Walnuts is in today's newsletter.

An easy picket line not to cross and in case you missed the news from a few years back, Nestlé owns a controlling share in Blue Bottle so it is not our local Bay Area brand and hasn’t been since 2017.
Inbox: The independent union at Blue Bottle Coffee, @bbiunion.bsky.social, is on strike. “As of today, we have gone out on the picket line to combat Blue Bottle's bad faith bargaining and ensure fair wages and protections for baristas.”

If you're mad that it's difficult to have an objective and nuanced conversation about the pros and cons of AI your beef is with the developers and promoters of this tech who deliberately made that impossible because they benefited from the irrational hype!

maybe if the people behind it cared about ethics and safety, there wouldn't be so much hate.
but it's used to abuse and exploit so many people without any care by AI boosters.
I hate abuse more than I'd love any alleged benefit it provides.

Is this platform still massively against AI or has it moved more towards acceptance?

My mom told her physical therapist she wears a mask because her husband and daughter are immunocompromised. The PT said she is too but isn't worried bc she knows if she dies she is going to heaven. Then her co-worker yelled, “Shut up Debbie you wear a seatbelt and take blood pressure meds” 👀

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.
