"Google today rolled out several new features for enterprise users of its Chrome browser, including data loss prevention (DLP), protections against malware and phishing, and the ability to enable zero-trust access to the search engine."
@HarryRutherford I wish there was a filter that gave your photo that Van Gogh painting look.
I need #fedilaw to assist me with stop-and-frisk versus terrystops.
Which one holds up in court? What do cops have to do to make stops legal?
These Philly mayoral candidates are talking about this, but they aren't going to lock up anyone or prosecute any offenders.

"I firmly believe that it is our fundamental right to be literate in at least one language. If you cannot read, you cannot access your full potential in life. This letter is my call to action to parents across the country: We must unite in our shared responsibility to help kids learn how to read and inspire a lifelong love of reading."

"Loneliness has more to do with our perceptions than how much company we have. It’s just as possible to be painfully lonely surrounded by people as it is to be content with little social contact."
"Tennessee Speaker Cameron Sexton (R) secretly bought a home in Nashville for nearly $600,000 in September 2021 through an anonymous trust, Popular Information has learned. The revelation raises serious new questions about whether Sexton can legally represent Crossville, which is nearly two hours from Nashville."

Key quotes from this article about Nassim Nicholas Taleb from The Spectator:
"Taleb is popular because he’s not selling anything; there’s no online course or paid subscription. What he offers is permission to look deep into the past for answers on how to live in the uncertain present."
"Taleb has an idea that should be basic, but that modern society finds difficult to accept: we don’t control everything. In fact, we control very little."
"The point is not to never make a mistake, per the Talebian “skin in the game” concept; it is to own up to your mistakes and admit to them publicly."
“He realizes that there is this discrepancy between how people are thinking and how they should think.”
This is just funny, but might be helpful social media time management advice: '“What people don’t realize is I have my Twitter fights prepared at least a week in advance,” he said. “And I use that downtime, traffic jam in an Uber or something like that, to start executing.”'
