If you google the history of Mother’s Day, the internet will tell you that Mother’s Day began in 1908 when Anna Jarvis decided to honor her mother. But “Mothers’ Day”—with the apostrophe not in the singular spot, but in the plural—actually started in the 1870s, when the sheer enormity of the death caused by the Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War conv…

A century and a half later women are still seeking equal rights, autonomy over their own health needs, equal pay and respect. We've gained so much ground, yet, of late, lost ground. Thank you to all the mothers and the not-mothers who have dedicated their lives to making the world a better place.

Even in our democracy, what we have won for women remains fragile and vulnerable. Let us rededicate ourselves on this Mothers' day to reclaiming the rights that have been taken from us.

Why reading whitepapers takes your career to the next level (and how to do it)

Guest post by L6 Staff Engineer & Tech Lead at Google
Hi everyone 👋, Jordan here. I’m excited to feature Micah Lerner , L6 Staff Engineer and Tech Lead at Google, and author of Micah Learns , a blog with recurring deep dives on technical topics. Micah attributes a large part of his growth to reading technical whitepapers. In today’s guest post, he will share the value he’s experienced and how you can see similar results.

The death (again) of the internet as we know it

A few big changes are making the online world a more boring place to hang out.
The internet as we know it has already died once. In the 2010s, the rise of smartphones and mass social media (Twitter/Facebook/Instagram) caused what internet veterans refer to as an Eternal September event, for the entire internet. “Eternal September” is an old slang term for when a bunch of normal folk…

Regarding spam/slop, I think a good solution could be to have social media accounts charge some small amount of money to make posts (say $0.001). Would be trivial for average users but could kill the business model of spammers who rely on putting out massive quantities of posts to only make a tiny return per post.
Although I'm sure people would complain about this even if it worked

If I had boys, I would not send them to a school filled with left wing idiots. They would go State schools in a conservative State.
This is a cliche, but how is it that left wing people break everything they touch, then lie and call it progress? Adulthood is in part about owning mistakes. It is about sincerity. It is about improving the mind, and improving the world. Why does this never happen once this zombifying virus takes hold? Thereafter it is roughly equal measures BS, patronizing moralistic postures, and steady decay in everything.
Trump is innocent with respect to all the charges in all of his trials. The current one in New York, as I understand it, is about campaign finance violations. The FEC already looked at it and found no wrong doing. The whole thing is a cooked up fraud that should embarass any lawyers still capable of embarassment.
And lets not forget that Hillary operated a server that itself was illegal, that plainly was intended to avoid compliance with the Federal Records Act (for the seemingly obvious reason that she was conducting illegal transactions), then deleted 40,000 emails, ran Bleechbit on her servers, and physically smashed both her hard drives and cell phones, to make any investigation impossible. This AFTER all this was subpoenaed by Congress.
If you do not understand that we have a two tiered system of "justice"--which really amounts to two tiers of injustice, in which one set of people is not charged for things they did do, and another IS charged for things they did not do--then all I can say is I assume you are wrong about nearly everything in your personal life too. I pity those around you, because you are out of touch with the currents of Life itself. None of this is complicated.

“Donald Trump lost two debates to me in 2020, since then, he hasn’t shown up for a debate. Now he’s acting like he wants to debate me again. Well, make my day, pal.”
– President Joe Biden
.
President Biden could add:
“If you won’t even testify in your own defense in court, what makes anyone think you’re brave enough to defend your abysmal record and abhorrent "Project 2025" policy proposals in a Presidential debate?”
“You’re afraid of E. Jean Carroll, you’re afraid of Stormy Daniels, and you’re afraid of me.”
.
Proposal:
Also, allow only a ten-second interruption while it is your opponent’s turn to speak. After that, your microphone is automatically muted.
Televise the debate with a 60-second delay with fact checkers having mute buttons. If, say, 4 out of 5 fact checkers press their button, the candidate goes silent – and the fact checkers’ comments appear on screen.
No audience. (Done deal!)
Proposed moderators: Christiane Amanpour and Anderson Cooper. (But I’d prefer Amy Goodman and Rachel Maddow.)

For those people who forgot what Donald Trumps first term looked like and forgot what Joe Biden accomplished here is something to give to people with a bad memory
Donald Trump first term
Fired FBI Director Jim Comey via TV for investigating Russias role in 2016 election
Fired next in command FBI Director trying to deprive him of his pension
Fired everyone in his whitehouse who testified to congress about what was going on in the whitehouse
Separated children from their immigrant parents who came to this country and locked up the kids in cages. 1000 kids never found their parents again
Shook down the Ukrainian President for information on Joe Biden. He threatened to withhold aid to Ukraine
Trump lied to America about the pandemic saying there would only be a few cases. Then he lied about Hydroxychloriquine that it would save peoples lives. Hydroxychloriquine was connected to the deaths of 18,000 supporters. He recommended injecting bleach and Lysol. He had political rallies without masks. He allowed the pandemic to crash the economy raising the unemployment rate to 17 to 18%. People panicked at the supermarkets cleaning them out. There was no eggs, water, bread, meat and toilet paper available. Trump was responsible for the deaths of 200,000 to 300,000 people. Never used the government to ship out masks and testing kits nationwide. Trump never did anything to stop the virus and made fun of the virus saying it was kung flu
Trump ordered authorities to fire at a black lives matter protest in Washington DC with flashbangs and rubber bullets in 2020 while holding a bible upside down
Joe Biden
Singlehandedly made the white house act more responsible and normally
Defeated the pandemic when Donald Trump never took it seriously passing the American rescue plan to help the country recover
Added 14 million jobs for the fastest job growth in the nations history
Passes a 1.2 billion dollar infrastructure bill with 9 mega infrastructure projects where Donald Trump broke his promise
Passed the largest investment in clean energy in American history
Secured billions in badly needed new science spending
Lowered the cost of drugs and healthcare
Protected same sex marriage
Signed into law a 375 billion dollar climate change bill
Signed in law major gun safety
Expanded health care for veterans
Bolstered domestic manufacturing of semi conductor computer chips
Erased over 140 billion in student loan debt
passed the Emmett till anti lynching law making lynching a federal crime
created 4,000 new union jobs compared to trump’s 200

I loved this Memo. In comparison to a lot of articles I read, you are one of few that tries to see all sides. At the beginning of the year I wrote about Google being under pressure in a lot of areas and talked about a narrative.
This narrative is not something anymore Google had to prevent, but is now facing.
When you said "we love to complain and still use products" I had to think of all the subreddits for multiplayer video games and wrestling. Everyone complains, yet still is a super heavy user and constantly buying into the product.
What I liked the most: Not shying away from signaling that you/we could all be wrong.
Do you have an opinion on the affiliates being demoted that seem to put in great work from the outside? There were a few examples I found surprising, but I didn't dig deep into the data or analyzed if they over-optimized. All I know is for a lot of queries in the US Google currently prefers the worse result. Worse = the content is objectively worse.
But, like you are alluding to, maybe it's actually what real people find the most helpful.

The Money In Menopause Supplements

I created Dr. Jen's Menopause Taming Turmeric Supplements to find out just how much

This spectrum includes celebrities, naturopaths, podcasters, PhDs, and even medical doctors. I’m not talking about advertisements for an already established supplement company via posts that raise “awar…

I wrote the emails and made the phone calls to get the pricing information from a few supplement companies for this article. I cannot emphasize how easy this was. I have worked in business to business software for years, and while fortunes can be made there, it takes tens of software development years of effort to create software that has any real value. I have also worked for a software company that was bought by a major pharma company to do the analytics on genomic data. Once again, tens to hundreds of person years were needed to create something that we could validate actually worked. And we were extremely careful with what we were doing because as one of my colleagues once said, "we have to be careful because people could die."
The supplement business is an incredible low to no effort add-on if you are even a mid tier influencer. Obviously, you don't have to know anything. I don't! I am not a doctor and I am allergic to biology classes. Yet, in spite of my lack of knowledge, it would have taken less than 40 hours of my time to get a Dr Jen supplement business up and running, and you have seen the upside numbers in the article. It really doesn't take much to get that revenue and profit stream into the millions if you already have an audience and don't have a problem exploiting their trust.
I wish I could find the Bernie Madoff quote on this, but supposedly he said something about how the easiest people to fool are people who already trust you. That is why this grift works so well. You establish trust with some good information that is consistent with NAMS guidelines, and depart from those guidelines (e.g. supplements) when it is in your financial best interest.
So for the instagram commenter who thinks that writing an article shining a light on this grift is "shitting in people's cheerios for trying to make money" I would note that they are mistaken. What is actually happening is that Jen is just pointing out that what someone else said was Cheerios, was in fact shit. She doesn't need to shit in your Cheerios when it is already shit.
But as Mark Twain supposedly said (who knows if he actually said it, as a lot of clever things get attributed to him incorrectly), "It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled.”

Let's all say a prayer of thanks for one of the greatest creations in human history, the American Bill of Rights, most especially our glorious First Amendment.
Not that this will save us, and not that words have power if there's no one willing to fight for the ideas they represent, but—imagine for a second what our Social Justice NGOocracy would be doing, the banning and censoring and "Don't say that, it might hurt a feeling" Orwellian binge and purge they'd be unleashing.
The First Amendment is the great barrier all our self-proclaimed enlightened elites can only try to sneak around. And thanks to Matt, Mike Shellenberger and a few other real journalists we all know that our "kind and compassionate" pseudo-tolerant liberal class and all their shameless fluffers in the MSM are lying petty tyrants who would do to the rest of us what Trudeau is doing, if they could get away with it.

A tech person suggested the following to improve search results: Type - BEFORE:2023 - and then enter your search query. I have found this to be effective at improving results. But I agree, Google is virtually unusable since they put Prabhakar Raghavan in charge of search and he started optimizing Ad results over quality. Google recently replaced him, but it was with someone who was in charge of AI, so I wouldn't get my hopes up just yet.

I am SO fascinated by the WSJ article about TikTok influencing financial feelings of dread- not only that, but as a graduating senior in college, I have seen this weird and completely unrealistic mindset that all graduates should be thriving immediately postgrad, with enough money from their first jobs ever to buy expensive drinks to instagram, expensive apartments to instagram, expensive Revolve dresses to instagram... you get the drift. TikTok and IG IMO have almost made "the struggle/grind" an unflattering, not-to-be-spoken-of thing. I was so shocked to learn that so many of the girls I've seen seemingly living it up postgrad have DEBT from SHOPPING. I don't have TikTok, so I largely see this play out on Instagram, but nonetheless this is a conversation I have had with my parents and friends and I think it ties in perfectly with the fact that todays day and age is the best and most safe time to live in history, and yet social media portrays the exact opposite. Social media has constantly been said to be fake and not real, but what it's doing is creating a false reality that people begin to live in as opposed to the real world. So interesting (and scary)!

Same re-hashed Israel/Gaza/Palestine storyline except now yesterdays lies about casualties have been replaced with some new soon to be exposed lies. That whole thing over there is a complete cluster fuck with both sides screaming (and shooting) at each other about what the history and facts are.....who has rights, who doesn't.....you killed this many....no, you killed that many, we were here first.....no, we were here first. It's exhausting to the point of me barely giving a shit anymore. Figure it out and let me know how many hundreds of billions in taxpayer dollars it cost and how many thousands of humans got shoved into the meat grinder. I'll be the one sitting over here in the corner playing wordle.
Also, the most privileged kids on the planet.....ever.....since the beginning of ever, still can't believe they aren't the most oppressed human beings ever because they are absolutely miserable after spending 4 years and a quarter million dollars being indoctrinated by tenured psychopaths. I can only assume pharmaceutical industry is drooling over the army of lifetime customers suffering from university professor induced PTSD they'll get to sell SSRI's to for the next 6 decades. Thank god we've allowed 40 million illegals to enter the country as we'll need someone who's actually qualified for employment.
