Just because someone failed to rob a bank doesn't mean they aren't a bank robber.

The rich do nothing about a problem by default.

Well you can't take the effect and make it the cause

Maybe she disagrees with "who needs their opinions changed".

Now I wonder if he's been abusing something and his wife got a few licks in...

I'm very curious what the numbers are, care to drop any sources?

In Satya Nadella's Hit Refresh, he says that "growth mindset" is how he describes Microsoft's emerging culture, and that "it's about every individual, every one of us having that attitude — that mindset — of being able to overcome any constraint, stand up to any challenge, making it possible for us to grow and, thereby, for the company to grow."

Strikes me as a poorly plagiarized Toyota Kata. Toyota Kata promises your org will be maximally adaptive but it sounds like Satya wanted to one-up that with "overcome any constraints". Toyota emphasizes iterative improvements as way a to build up systems knowledge, but Satya seems to take an essentialist read on the matter to say it's a "mindset", like improvement is an ingredient instead of a process.

Who wants to vote swap with me? I'll write in Refaat Alareer if someone votes Kamala in a swing state. I'm in California so don't tell me I'd be wasting my vote.

"It's just a joke bro, they aren't even a race" made me chuckle. The best part was doubling down at the end that it's really America that's racist. Great satire, even if unintentional.

You know that is actually insightful to the PTSD that many IDF soldiers are experiencing.

According to international law it's acceptable when you're being occupied, as is the case with Palestine. Not saying I agree, but the law makes a big distinction for those under apartheid.

I mean it was wrong when the US bombed weddings in the middle east and was a bad look. Don't even need hypotheticals.

population centers

Why does one side have population centers and the other human shields? It's wrong regardless.
