Hopeful for a tier-less, variant-less, wave-less, lockdown-less future.

Saving this for when I'm inevitably asked for proof in the future.
* Gender diversity is correlated with both profitability & value creation.
* Top-team ethnic & cultural diversity is correlated with profitability.
* The penalty for not being diverse on both measures persists. https://t.co/or3BTvlSrD

New study by @McKinsey again shows strong correlation between #diversity and business performance. https://t.co/miMkEvZvKS

@danolsen @eventbrite They take a cut from the organizer as well? I just paid a 43% fee to buy a ticket on eventbrite! $2.18 fee on a $5 ticket.

Rest in power. You were brilliant.

Bless Sinead O’Connor for not backing down in the defense of children against horrific abuse in the Catholic Church.

Rest in power.

@ClaraJeffery Oh ffs. In our 30s we had small children to take care of (only us, never our husbands) and now this?

When you look for a support number online do you Google the company name then the words “customer support”?
Scammers know that’s what most do so they work hard to ensure their scam number pops up before the *real* support number on Google to steal money, data, etc via your call.

@clundoff Exactly! They’re deadly.

Was hoping this wouldn’t be the case but alas.

This: “The modern internet is an endless shell came where the user is continually swindled out of seeing the things they want.”

[Ed Zitron @edzitron]

Searching for things has become less about providing answers and more about Google, the people that pay Google, and the people that game Google. The SEO industry - and the clicks-focused incentive of online publishers - has rotted out search.

The other player waiting in the wings is Mobileye, which has the unique advantage that it supplies ADAS systems to most automakers so it understands this market really well even if they don't currently have a leading robotaxi project.

@moorehn Oooo dating show about farmers is exactly my speed. I tried watching their version of GBBO but there too much talk and not enough baking.

@MountainViewPD can you please help direct traffic from 101S to Rengstoff? (Exit 400A) We’ve been sitting in the right lane of 101 for almost half an hour now and we’re seeing some really dangerous maneuvers of cars trying to cut the line. Thanks!

[Hagit K 🐈‍⬛ @Hagit]

@MJB_SF This is crazy. “We should separate the business of ad tech from the business of getting care.” That’s putting it mildly.

The surprising life of the most famous laugh in music history: Alison Moyet’s in Situation.

[Marke B. @supermarke]

41 years ago today, Yazoo released "Only You" as a single. But it was the B-side "Situation"—featuring Alison Moyet's indelible laugh—that would transform the meaning of "12-inch remix" (with an assist from genius @fknyc ). Here's my history from 2018: https://t.co/4HbMWVAlOJ

A lot of people seem to be wondering why a separate app is necessary in the first place, which is a totally reasonable thing to wonder about! There are a few big reasons, and they have a lot to do with metadata and cataloging.

@dancow @justkelly_ok Why is it only for a “special program” and not for everyone who uses it? More hoops for patients to jump through?
