There doesn’t seem to be a way for @airindia to resolve this issue and compensate us for the items as we didn’t realize they were missing till we got home each time. What a disappointing experience. @bangalorecustom @Bengaluruairndiait

This 16 person hacker house:

- listed their NYC house on google maps as a steak house as a joke

- generated a 900 person waitlist for reservations for what seemed like an ~exclusive dining experience~

- decided to actually make it real by getting 60 of their friends (almost none of whom had cooking experience lol) to volunteer, cook, and serve people for $114/plate

Lol bravo

This is just another day for our kids in America! How is it okay to put our children through this over and over again, and not do anything about it?

I shed many tears while typing up these heart-wrenching text messages sent and received by UNC students yesterday. Our campus was on lockdown for more than three hours.

Beyond proud of this cover and the team behind it.

Nearly every member of the Bay Area's congressional delegation told the Chronicle they're running for re-election in 2024. Several are over 70.

The Us govt must reassess @elonmusk contractor status. If a private citizen acted like this in any other capacity he would lose his security clearance

Surely someone who can figure out how to build spaceships can figure out how to distinguish scrapers from legit users. The patterns must be so different.

[CALL TO ACTIVISM @CalltoActivism]

This is crazy.

“For 13 thousand dollars, Englishman Brendon Grimshaw bought a tiny uninhabited island in the Seychelles and moved there forever. When Grimshaw was under forty, he quit his job as a newspaper editor and started a new life.

By this time, no human had set foot on the island for 50 years. As befits a real Robinson, Brendon found himself a companion from among the natives. His name was René Lafortin. Together with Rene, Brendon began to equip his new home. While René came to the island only occasionally, Brendon lived on it for decades by himself, never leaving.

For 39 years, Grimshaw and Lafortin planted 16 thousand trees with their own hands and built almost 5 kilometers of paths. In 2007, Rene Lafortin died, and Brendon was left all alone on the island.

He was 81 years old. He attracted 2,000 new bird species to the island and introduced more than a hundred giant tortoises, which in the rest of the world (including the Seychelles) were already on the verge of extinction. Thanks to Grimshaw's efforts, the once deserted island now hosts two-thirds of the Seychelles' fauna. An abandoned piece of land has turned into a real paradise.

A few years ago, the prince of Saudi Arabia offered Brendon Grimshaw $50 million for the island, but he refused. “I don’t want the island to become a favorite vacation spot for the rich. Better let it be a national park that everyone can enjoy.”

And he achieved just that. In 2008 the island was indeed declared a national park.”
