Alternative headline: bunch of drunk professors devise study to prove it’s evidence of how smart they are
But seriously, while there are only correlations between educational attainment and IQ, they are correlated, and most very smart people I know also drink like fucking fish. And they’re usually pretty fun to drink with.
The desperate need to try to wave away any possible negative effects from social media by people heavily dependent on social media comes as no surprise. It’s like trying to criticize fast food to a fat person.
Some will acknowledge it’s bad for them and eat it anyway, but most will just get extremely defensive about it and try to rationalize or downvote. It has vitamins! If you only eat the unfried vegetables and only drink water, it’s actually good for you!
Preach!
I totally get it. Good luck though, make sure you find a landing space first. WFH jobs are decreasing and are getting much more competitive. They’re also, unfortunately, prone to be suddenly or slowly shifted to in-office positions. Trying to work a mandatory period of WFH into your contract might be useful, but that’ll be pretty difficult.
As long as you are very employable and in the right field you should be fine. Using “transitional WFH” as a way to entice workers is becoming more commonplace and employers are often not transparent about it.
A friend works in HR at a place that hires as “WFH” and doesn’t mention at any point that there is already a timeline in place for two days in office after six weeks and then full time in office after three months. It’s not stipulated anywhere, it’s a “new policy” that comes down… on the same timeline… for every new employee. Lol
“Is becoming”…? Where you been bro.
Yes, that’s my point. Losing money didn’t “influence” him.
Musk has lost a tremendous amount of money between X and his negative effect on Tesla sales. Do you feel this has “manipulated” him into being a better person? 🤣
This is a hyperbolic article to be sure. But many in this thread are missing the point. It’s not that photo manipulation is new.
It’s the volume and quality of photo manipulation that’s new. “Flooding the zone with bullshit,” i.e. decreasing the signal-to-noise ratio, can have a demonstrable social effect.
They just send up more food.
CE and BCE. Same thing different name. shrug
The disruptive value is in making people believe that the account could be a Russian/Chinese/Democrat/Republican/Whatever bot and therefore sow confusion and paranoia. The account is doing exactly what it is intended to do.

I don’t want a cybertruck and I think Elon is an ass, but it would pretty cool if you had a tent like this that didn’t suck on a truck that wasn’t stupid and you could hook the tent up to the climate control and have it vented through the tent. Like, winter camping, toasty warm, summer camping, nice and cool. That would be pretty baller. Is that a thing already?
“Perfect use of resources” might be overstating it a bit.
Tesla “autopilot” averages one airbag deployment every five million miles.
The average driver in the U.S. averages one every 600,000 miles.
Idk. Doesn’t seem like it works perfectly, but it does seem to work pretty well.
No one expects they should be able to install a gas station in their backyard to buy an ICE vehicle. The issue is infrastructure.
You should see the videos of model Y owners (a model they’ve had many iterations on) roll down their window during rain to get a drive through order and the water pours into the open window directly onto the, you guessed it, button console used to open/close the window and DOOR. I’m sure that won’t eventually cause problems. With OPENING THE DOOR.
And it’s not just falling rain, it literally channels rain from the glass roof directly into any open window. It’s hilarious.
What a badly written article. It’s like an article that had a point that got forgotten 2/3rds through and then just ends. If you’ve read the NYT article, this adds literally zero information. It’s a poorly executed paraphrase.
Finally someone else familiar with the most deadly animal in North America.
