This sign is a pretty good indication that no one has any idea about what they’re talking about in Davos.

Davos summary:
We got filthy rich over the past 10 years thanks to central bank easy money policies.
Now there's populist anger everywhere and we just don't understand why.
Took me forever to find parking for my private jet. What's the world coming to?

Slack closed my account today!

I’m a PhD student in Canada with no teammates from Iran!

Is Slack shutting down accounts of those ethnically associated with Iran?!

And what’s their source of info on my ethnicity?

When someone announces, self-referentially, "I have integrity and virtue", look for the fraud.

If NYT wanted to show *virtue* they shd say:
"We take RISK for the Truth, even if uncomfortable to us & causes us to be ostracized by the MONOCULTURE/Weapon makers"

No virtue w/o Risk

Team considered access to call history considered 'high PR risk' but 'growth team will charge ahead'. @Facebook@twitter.com created upgrade path to access data w/o subjecting users to Android permissions dialogue.

RT @fermatslibrary@twitter.com: In space, without gravity, there are no density differences - buoyancy & convection don't occur. As a result, the combustion products accumulate in a spherical shape around the flame, preventing oxygen from reaching it and sustaining the reaction. Ultimately the flame goes out.

That Congressman was Tom MacArthur, architect of the Obamacare repeal.

He just lost reelection.
