That's a different and completely unrelated [1] organization that happens to have a similar name (Black Lives Matter Foundation vs Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation).

That’s a super simplified model of the world. Investors put a lot of work into finding out information between earnings calls, including talking to suppliers and customers, acquiring data on sales (obtained via retailers, credit card companies, satellite data, etc), and observing external events that affect the market including regulatory changes and the earnings of peer companies. All of these bits of information can provide insight on the hidden information.

In response to your second edit, I disagree with your claim that choosing to use the term “mother” vs “momma” is neutral or symmetric. When you choose to use the common term “mother,” it implies nothing in particular. Intentionally choosing to use the word “momma” on the other hand is not a neutral decision. You specifically chose to use it to refer to Black mothers. And your statement about “denying black identity” just reinforces the argument that you associate Black people with a certain manner of speech.

I have no bias against you. I’m just trying to explain to you why some people find your original statement offensive. Instead of defending it, just try to consider how it may make your audience feel in the future.

I found it pretty offensive. Being Black does not imply speaking differently and your message seems to indicate that you think it does.

The portion of the book on the history of money has very few references for its claims and makes numerous factual errors. If you’re looking for a well referenced book on the history of money, this is not the book.

I haven’t noticed this in my travels. I have seen that the subway and train systems in some countries are leaps and bounds ahead of anything I’ve seen in the US, but what have you noticed beyond that?

Peterson and Rubin are starting this because Patreon banned Yiannopoulos and Benjamin. Benjamin got banned for saying, among other things, “Maybe you're just acting like a n....r, mate? Have you considered that? Do you think white people act like this? White people are meant to be polite and respectful to one another, and you guys can't even act like white people, it's really amazing to me." Portraying Patreon’s action as being anti-conservative is pretty disingenuous unless “conservative” was suddenly redefined to mean “racist.”

Have you often seen adversarial training used for sequence labeling to improve generalization across domains? The LSTM-CRF model appears to be the same model proposed by Lample et al (2016). I’d agree that it is common now to use that architecture.

I think context is important for understanding the response. From what I recall at the time, the article that first broke this news and defined the narrative was this article from the Daily Beast: https://www.thedailybeast.com/palmer-luckey-the-facebook-nea...

Describing it as a $10K donation for a single anti-Hillary billboard misses the parts of the story that caused controversy at the time. The controversial aspects included his connection to Milo Yiannopoulos and moderators of r/The_Donald, and their connections to abusive online behavior and white supremacist rhetoric.
