This has to be good news for Twitter.

Twitter suffered enormously under his leadership. It lost users, potential revenue, potential profits, and people.

He seemed to not care about all the trolling and abuse problems.

This is good news.

700 point is nothing to worry about.

Via Twitter I have asked clarificatory questions to some of the top authors (Taleb was one), journalists and programmers in the world.

Most of them responded.

When I was unhappy I was always unhappy (eventually). Whether it was by myself or with other people. Smallco or Bigco.

IMHO, 5 things are essential. Everything else is secondary:

- Sleep / resting the body-mind

- Exercise / moving the body

- Meditation / moving the mind

- Nutrition / feeding the body-mind

- Access to high quality internet on a high quality computer with a good electricity network

Exactly this. People are trying to sway the discussion with "single mother" and "mexican" implying that "people of color who make unfortunate choices" should somehow be exempt from the uniform and fair application of laws.

ICIM: I'm a "person of color who's made a lot of unfortunate choices" ;=D
