On my try list for this week - looking good 👌🏻
He might be onto something,. especially regarding processed foods
"One of the bottlenecks may be access to eye-tracking technologies, which are expensive [..]. Until cheaper and easy-to-use eye trackers are available, [..] diagnostic tool for early-stage Alzheimer's is not possible" after the ur watch saving lives, maybe @Apple Vision can too
Although I don't always agree with all of John Oliver's takes (e.g. episode about @elonmusk is one on which I only partially agree, and would love to rebuke some of the statements). His Supreme court episode and his offer to justice Clarence Thomas is absolutely legendary

Remote work doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some nice time with your coworkers: actually the opposite is true.
Yesterday we finished our annual summer meet-up at Sounds Good Agency | Shopify Experts in Prague.
Here’s what we did:
💚 Wednesday: arrival in Prague, dinner and relax
💚 Thursday: team building day - morning workshop about the 16 personality types + afternoon treasure hunt in the nature. Nice barbecue to close the day.
💚 Friday: all day hiking trip starting in an awesome cave and finishing with a guided tour of the Karlštein castle. Then… party all night in Prague’s city center (I’ll save you from those photos 😅)
💚 Saturday: end of the meet up. Some left earlier, others slept through the whole morning 😆
Thank you so much for all who were a part of these days. I look forward to the next time where we’ll see each other in person again.
♻️ RT to celebrate remote work well done.
P.S. I’ve mentioned this meet up also on my weekly newsletter. You can check it here: davidjose.net/p/5-shopify-ne…

Não só isso como também no recibo de vencimento deveria vir a quantia total, incluindo a parte social paga pela empresa. Eu não sou contra impostos, mas a carga é excessiva e a falta de transparência enorme

This will be a case study in international relations for years to come.
A few days ago, US Treasury sanctioned a Russian-controlled bank (@IIB_Press) that Hungarian PM Viktor Orbán personally invited to relocate to Budapest. Subsequently, news broke about a possible next round of US sanctions - now directly targeting Orbán's circles.
Orbán's reaction? First, after spending years of defending it, he immediately threw the Russian-led bank under the bus. Then, after months of increasingly anti-American rhetorics, he suddenly realised that Hungary and the US are strong allies and share the same fundamental beliefs!
Well, this is a good reminder of the power of US sanctions, the dominance of US dollar in international finance - and how carrots and sticks work in diplomacy.

At this point, you should be default skeptical of any news story about Twitter. Many journalists have an agenda, there are a lot of angry ex-Twitter people ready to tell them what they want to hear, and there are a lot of readers eager to consume negative stories.

"The world remained firmly in warming’s grip last year, with extreme summer temperatures in Europe, China and elsewhere contributing to 2022 being the fifth-hottest year on record"

Important to take note and to implement.
Having political revolving doors between regulators and working for regulated companies shouldn't happen, it's a recipe for corruption, and it definitely should be stopped.
There are many examples of disasters in the US because of this
“Sul Marocco il gruppo S&D ha tenuto posizioni sbagliate, contrarie a quelle che io difendevo.Tanto che avevo co-firmato alcune iniziative con Ana Gomes,che ha fatto grandi battaglie. Sono stato uno dei pochi a votare per il rinvio alla Corte di Giustizia” lastampa.it/politica/2022/12…
Eu sempre disso isto, não faz sentido, é uma vergonha nacional.O pior está ainda mais atrás, que é porque razão a AT tem tanto poder de cobrança e tem "via verde" para ser juiz e carrasco? Porque cobrando pelo sistema judicial, fica impossível, e em vez de o corrigir, termos isto
