Why No Snickers - Is it really because all of the kids are allergic?

And we have now progressed from data analysis to policy recommendations.

I told her that we'd calculate the cash value of her candy haul, that I'd ask her to raid her piggy bank and donate 1/3 the candy cash value to a local food bank, and that I'd add on a 5X match.

The final candy bar graph, with my 11-year-old recoding the tallies in her journal and calculating their value

Character.AI is the first major company to acknowledge that companions aren't safe for young people. Will others follow? www.platformer.news/character-ai...

Maybe Character.AI banned teens from using its companions simply because executives believed it is the right thing to do. Or maybe they became convinced that the company’s mounting legal liability had forced their hand.

Whatever the case, in a benighted year for trust and safety, it’s at least somewhat heartening to see a company shrink itself in the name of protecting its users. At a time when AI is presented as an inevitability, Character.AI’s retreat offers a timely reminder that human beings are still in control. You don’t have to build it; you don’t have to release it; and you can still pull the plug. Here’s hoping other companies heed its example.

I’m not a futurist but if I had kids they definitely would be learning a language other than English. Cause the new majority in 2040 won’t be English only speakers

And It’s not lost on me that it’s built using Wikipedia’s content. Racists are always parasitic

My HOA is installing Flock Cameras in our gated community AND are working with the police to charges kids and parents with crimes. I know this is going to go poorly

Matthew Guariglia @mguariglia.bsky.social · 7d

Police from a town of 900 in Colorado accused a woman of theft. Based on their Flock cameras they told her, "you can’t get a breath of fresh air, in or out of that place, without us knowing, correct?" and reportedly told her the exact number of times her license plate had driven through that town.

Police used Flock cameras to accuse a Denver woman of package theft. She had her own evidence

"Like I said, nothing gets in or out of the town without us knowing."

Sometimes I wish more white Americans would acknowledge that Hitler got his ideas around segregation from America and there are plenty direct quotes from his books

Phil Williams @philinvestigates.com · 8d

MUST WATCH: He thinks Hitler may have been right, now he wants a Whites-only community in Tennessee www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...

He thinks Hitler may have been right, now he wants a Whites-only community in Tennessee

He thinks Adolf Hitler may have been right. He talks about preparing for civil war. And, now, he hopes to establish a Whites-only community in Tennessee.

Yup and one of the earliest founder of the Zionist movement was from there. This was before the world war 2. I was like dang Hungary, your country is chaotic

Smh- when I went to the national history museum in Budapest it seemed like just centuries of white on white crime. Like Hungary gets taken over by another group of white Europeans like every 30

I feel like some ppl should get together and start a new church and tap into some “freedoms”. If the khardashians can start a church, it can’t be that hard

2d Cir. holds a Christian school that was expelled from all state sporting activities after it forfeited a playoff basketball game bc of a trans student on the other team should have been granted a PI bc the state showed hostility to its religious views.

ww3.ca2.uscourts.gov/decisions/is...

And he criticized
Mid Vermont’s forfeit against Long Trail:
[A] Christian school forfeits so they won’t have to play
against this team that has a transgender
student . . . . Thank goodness the student in question
didn’t attend that religious school . . . but what if they

24-1704
Mid Vermont Christian School v. Saunders
did? Would we be okay with that blatant discrimination
under the guise of religious freedom?
Id.
Such testimony supports the inference that the VPA’s
punishment was “informed by hostility toward certain religious
beliefs.” New Hope, 966 F.3d at 160. As Executive Director, Nichols
wielded the power to “enforc[e] VPA policies.”
