Whenever I see these Musk posts, I always marvel at how people seem to think one man builds spaceships, programs self-driving cars, pushes all the buttons on Twitter, and does all the research himself on monkeys.

The graphic novel, written by Ari Folman and illustrated by David Polonsky, adapts the diary of 13-year-old Anne Frank, who wrote while hiding in an annexe in Nazi-occupied Amsterdam. Eighth-grade students were reportedly shown a section of the graphic novel where Frank reflected on her own genitals and wanted to see a female friend’s breasts, according to KFDM.

So basically exactly like all of the 13 yr olds in the class, who are probably taught at home how their body parts are shameful.

There was a video I saw a while back of a look-alike getting swarmed by fans, fans who were bawling about meeting her, it's just fucking nuts. I saw Harrison Ford once from a distance, and I was like "hey cool, I saw Harrison Ford", but some people just go apeshit.

He's not wrong. The amount of information people share publically is insane, and all the focus is on how the big tech companies abuse it and not how inherently dangerous it is to begin with.

It wasn't the rules/signs portion of the test. They litereally had questions like:

Which is more dangerous when riding beside a row of parked cars?

A) A car pulling out.

B) Someone opening a car door.

C) A child running into the street from between two parked cars.

It's not an opinion question, personally I'd rather hit the car and the door over the child, but they want to know the answer that the study material gave.

They're not testing you on what you know, they're testing on did you study the course material. I had the same problem when trying to pass my written motorcycle test when I moved to California after riding in Canada for years.

Email marketing is the only effective way to grow a business online these days

Sorry, but I call horse_shit_ on this. If the only way you can grow your business is to shovel your garbage into my personal inbox, then it's spam, plain and simple.

If I have to give you my e-mail address to order something and you default "sign up for more of my bullshit" to checked, then fuck you.

Other than a new wave of death threats and science denial I'm sure.

Remember when Trump said in order to win the war against ISIS you also need to "take out their families"?

All they did was take down the website that links to the GitHub repository. They already tried to have GitHub pull it, and they did but then restored it and setup a legal defense fund for projects in similar situations which seems like a pretty big "fuck you".

This story is a nothing-burger, the equivalent of the blue bucket meme.

I moved from Canada to California a few years ago and spent almost 5 years in the San Jose area. Loved California; the food, the people there, the scenery, definitely the weather. End up hating America though.

You can tell it's fake based on the fact the signatures don't have 3 images shilling whatever internal feel-good initiative upper management is shilling this month. Those are great for email 2 ticketing systems ... sigh.

I hate my life.
