I giggle often at the fact that whatever insanely complex and "secure" technology is running under, we share everything with screenshots. I get curated IG stories in 3 panes on Twitter/anywhere while not having an IG account. It's great to be here.

One day I really want the full story of Bill Laimbeer, one of the most hated NBA player ever who went on to win 3 WNBA championships as a coach (and counting). Like, I want to know everything.
In the mid 00s I wondered what GAP meant in GAP Band. This led me to Tulsa and the Red Summer of 1919. I was amazed to learn about those, which I had never ever heard before. Stay curious. Keep questioning.

This thread is beautiful and one of the best explanations of why big data, AI/ML and big tech are a danger to humanity. The machines know more about you than you know about yourselves. All of that information is not just available to intelligence agencies but any corporation.
