DEI is racist. It's picking people because of skin color instead of merit.

In Canada, mass immigration is creating high unemployment for young people. Don't be so quick to blame AI when government policies are to blame. https://www.kingstrust.ca/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/TKTC-De...

Melvyn Bragg would always rush the experts, pressuring them to get to the point asap. I found him a bit off-putting and even rude at times, but it was what made made the show unique and never stagnant.

CBC is not a reliable, unbiased source of news in Canada. Most Canadians know this.

Apple could easily acquire Mistral and become competitive fast. And I hope they do. The more AI the better.

Standard Notes is a "finished" product imo, but it's not integrated into the Proton ecosystem in any way.

Good point. It was originally intended to be a checklist, but changed my mind. Fixed.

Disagree. I'm learning Polish -not the most popular of languages- and I think this idea is fantastic and much appreciated.

I use DDG daily and I'm happy with the results. In fact, I've become quite a fan of it lately. And with my ChatGPT sub, Kagi seems unnecessary.

Headlines? So are you just reading mainstream news? Diversify your sources and you'll have a much more balanced perspective.
Worked for me.

Re:Reading 100 Pages a Day
on Sunday December 22, 2024 @12:22AM (#42484548)
I'm learning Polish, and I've so far shadowed Mały Książę (The Little Prince) by Antonio Saint-Exupéry everyday for 37 days straight. My goal is 100 days straight for a Bimodal Blitzathon. The book is approximately 160 pages and it takes me a little over two hours.
It can be done obviously, but it needs to be a priority to finish the book early in the day. The days that I put it off, I ended up finishing near midnight. Not fun, and I don't get as much out of it.
