Specifically, pessimism is easy to sell to young adults, since it sounds world-weary and wise. So it's a cheat code for cynics and depressives who want followings. It's only later that the kids realize they've been sold a bill of goods, and by then it's cost them dearly.
💯 Pessimism as an attitude is fake sophistication, it always has been. Optimism is both more correct and a better way to live!

I was just wondering what Hitch would say in these troubling times in the Middle East. Perhaps it would be something like this... xitter.cf/i/status/1713644191891…

Touch screen UI’s in cars are going to kill someone. It forces me to look at the screen instead of the road. Physical knobs and sliders allowed you to use your sense of touch to replace your eyes.

I fear Elon Musk could undermine the ideological diversity, equity and inclusion at Twitter which currently maintains a careful balance of 98.7% for one side.

Si eres #autónomo y vas a cerrar el negocio porque no da beneficio, asegúrate de hundirlo bien primero y tener más de 10% de pérdidas el ultimo año, o no tendrás derecho #prestación por desempleo. Emprender en España que bonito es. @empleo_SEPE @empleogob

As I don't have an audience I can freely say what many people secretly think, that #react hooks are really weird and a pain to use.

When I teach people to code, I see a lot more people struggling with problem-solving than the code itself. The ability to break a problem into smaller ones and then solve all of those smaller problems takes a lot of practice.

Always being a critic of a person is easy. Always being a fan of a person is easy. What's hard is to be both, with the genuine goal of helping them become truly great. That said, criticism too easily becomes the way to drag people down not uplift them. So use it wisely.

This is the kind of thing humans can achieve when they work together, standing, as Newton said, on the shoulders of giants from the past. Proud to be human. Homo cooperator mathematicus. thetimes.co.uk/article/flawl…

Does aid solve poverty? In 1960, South Korea's average income was $1,102. In Ghana? $1,053. By 2015 Korea's reached $25,022, while Ghana's only rose to $1,696. Yet Ghana received far more in aid per capita than South Korea between 1960 and 2015. humanprogress.org/the-questi…
