1 death reported at Burning Man while festival attendees remain stuck in the Nevada desert from heavy rains
  • People tend to acquire wealth over time? There is a solid correlation between wealth and age, so this shouldn't be surprising in the least. And especially those who had time/energy to spare to attend festivals earlier are especially predisposed for acquiring now wealth down the line. Assuming that they return over the years, all of this is pretty much to be expected.

  • 1 death reported at Burning Man while festival attendees remain stuck in the Nevada desert from heavy rains
  • Are you kidding me? That is a sample distance of nine years. Within nine years, you see a rise of median age of five years. So what does this tell you? A lot of the original attendees stuck around, while some dropped (probably due to having families, getting out of it etc.) and some younger ones joined.

  • Was haltet ihr von einer Kennzeichpflicht für Fahrräder?
  • Joa, leichtere Identifikation bei Fehlverhalten wäre vielleicht ganz gut, aber dafür die Verwaltung noch mehr belasten? Da würde ich lieber mehr Energie die in Digitalisierung der Bürokratie, Verwaltung Sozialleistungen etc stecken bevor wir das überlegen.

  • Terrible natural disaster - China's river bursts cause severe flooding in Guangdong
  • Well, probably an AI translation. Some quite colorful phrasing in there, actually makes for a interesting break from the generic news channel tone. The hashtags are fun too: there are an "volcanic eruption", a "Tsunami" and "locust invades" tucked away in the SEO tags.

  • Maui resident: 'We still have dead bodies floating in the water'
  • I wouldn't talk about a meltdown of society here - this is a natural disaster, not the sacking of Rome. In due time help will arrive, people will bury the dead and rebuild. Though I agree it makes you appreciate how we take things for granted until one day they aren't.

  • EVIDENCE of ANGLO-SAXON TREACHERY
  • Actually even Germany could have had motivation to blow it up. There was strong pressure from local far right groups to re-open trade with Russia, blowing up the pipelines has taken that option of the table. Maybe a bit extreme reaction to a minority group, but still a possible motive.

  • We’re now finding out the damaging results of the mandated return to the office–and it’s worse than we thought
  • I'm all for hybrid work models, but this reporting smells fishy: why don't they mention the contrasting scores for companies not enforcing return to office? If they were markedly different, wouldn't you want to underscore that? The author then going on a self-promotion spree for his hybrid work consultancy does not inspire confidence in the findings either ...

    As much as I love hybrid work myself, this style of lazy and frankly biased reporting only serves to undermine confidence in actual success stories. Say no to lazy "journalism".
