The Schiaparelli one is weird in an almost cool way but like it doesn’t go hard enough. Like I wish they pumped up the exaggerated proportions 20-50%, or at least she should have worn a giant-ass hat with it

Also struck by the intellectual and aesthetic poverty of thinking that the sole purpose of reading a book is “to get information.”

This is extremely Not The Point but it’s funny to me that they built this with a deprecated software tool: Create React App. Faster and more performant boilerplate web app tools eclipsed it years ago. Not very cutting edge technology of them

Hell yea conferences need WAY more of this energy

Also also they frame the VIP ticket requirement as “get your company to buy it,” which, fine. But at a time when lots of smaller companies & orgs are cutting those budgets, it really restricts the perspectives you’ll get to the most monied big tech giants. Ugh, no thanks

Also I know the answer is “money,” but this conference is being billed as a big opulent party. Why not have a regular ass conference and do the bare minimum to compensate the people providing the content?

Yes! A friend with teenage kids had this insight: when phone use is prohibited for all (like in stricter school & camp environments), they experience relief, even if they fight it initially. But voluntary/partial bans are much trickier because kids feel intense FOMO at missing out on group chats

This amendment would not cut any police positions, there would be no layoffs. Again, they have 91 fully funded vacant positions they failed to fill. They are the wealthiest bureau in the entire city.

It parallels how our federal government spends money on war and not housing, food, or roads.
