    When we lived in Madrid, the nightclubs had "lite night" from 6-10pm. Younger teenagers got the full nightclub experience sans alcohol, and met kids from all different schools. Miss that so much for my daughter.

    Is the "secret sauce" algorithm today any better than the competition? Or is it now just the network effects of the originally novel UI off the interest graph?

    Language holds all the clues you need: Ivanka tweeted "my friends Jeff and Lauren..." Calling them “my friends” is classic marked language. True friends don't need to be linguistically flagged.

    These are daily accidental users. It's clickbait snippets in Instagram with no friction. That's why Threads has only surpassed X on mobile, not overall.

    Saw a lady like this in the airport yesterday. Then I saw her in the lounge with a huge plate of food. Steak and potatoes piled high. Ok. Then I passed her again on my way back to the buffet to get some cookies for the plane, and she had eaten none of it.

    It's sad but I would only recommend Ryanair if you are young and flexible

    Police coverage is way too low in NYC subway. The numbers justify way more presence.

    My daughter's friends in 5th grade were all watching this so we started and I was horrified even before this plot twist. I think we left off on cult organ harvesting, lesbian sex and neighborhood drug deals.

    I'm a super host, and you can cancel for plumbing or mechanical.
