@markessien I've heard executives allocate resources away from growth initiatives based on the premise that they're always growing … then lay off when they don't meet their growth numbers. Certain pains come with growing too fast, but I agree: can't assume stable growth.
To give context on age, Grace Hopper began computing at 38, completed the first compiler at 46, helped shape COBOL at 53, kept developing COBOL for the Navy in her 70s, retired from the Navy at 80 & then became a consultant for the Digital Equipment Corporation.

Our film “No Other Land” on occupied Masafer Yatta’s brutal expulsion won best documentary in Berlinale. Israel’s channel 11 aired this 30 second segment from my speech, insanely called it “anti semitic” - and I’ve been receiving death threats since. I stand behind every word.
Israel has now dropped 65,000 tons of explosives on Gaza’s civilian population in 89 days—over one and a half times more than the Hiroshima and Nagasaki nuclear bombs combined.
Call it what it is: GENOCIDE
BREAKING:
⚡ 🇮🇱 Huge protests against the Israeli government in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem, Haifa and other cities
The protesters demand the hostages to be returned home & some are demanding the fall of the entire Israeli cabinet.
This comes after the Israeli military admitted to killing three Israeli hostages despite flying white flags.
BBC documents what we have repeatedly warned: the IDF relocation order to flee from North to South Gaza was no humanitarian evacuation. It attempted illegal forcible transfer to places with no safety, no accommodation, no water, no health care, nor relief. https://t.co/mXLHylkL5C
The Director of the UN's New York office just resigned after thirty years at the organisation over the UN's handling of the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.
The entirety of his resignation letter is a necessary read but this first page blew me away.
Today Bolivia cut off diplomatic ties with Israel, Chile has recalled the ambassador, and Colombia recalled its ambassador saying they will not support genocide. The world should follow the leadership of Latin America.
@NikemaCodes A couple of perspectives almost made @PadmaLakshmi's point: with mayo, you could end up getting that burnt egg taste. I say if this is about overcoming fears, don't take anyone else's word for it. Try it!

If we add same-race crime, we see that the vast majority of violent crimes in America involve white victims and white offenders.
If we thought race was a huge factor, and wanted to make the biggest impact on crime numbers, we might want to start there.
