Jason Brown said same-sex ice dance!
[About Same sex ice dance becoming a thing]: I really can't wait to have people explore that. And I always have found that having the visual representation goes such a long way in terms of changing or impacting a sport.

i understand this framing but i think it's inaccurate. i think we never figured this out at all. Google figured out how to monetize the open web, and publishers were secondary beneficiaries. But at no point were publishers ever actually fully in charge of their monetization, like in the print era.
We just spent the last 25 years of the internet figuring out how to monetize content.
This has been a HUGE transformation for publishing (journalism and other kinds!) and key to it it was the rise of "search engine optimization" or SEO, but also general cross-linking and promotion.

“After the war is won, we must be prepared to move forward with the implementation of these rights.”
81 years ago, FDR proposed a second Bill of Rights to guarantee every American the right to employment, healthcare, education, housing, and a living income. His words are as relevant now as they were then. Watch.

And then we still have to pay for most of the actual care, until we reach the deductible, and even after that, until we hit out of pocket maximums.
“The average family in the US currently pays $6,850 annually for health insurance, and the average annual payment for employers is $20,143,” Apollo’s Torsten Sløk writes, in a new note. “That is a total annual cost for health insurance per family of $26,993.”
