1/ Campaigning candiates set citizen sights on

<in past>
SHARED grand ambitions
country above self; science + tech
common enemy (communism, russia)

<in present>
SELF-focused stresses
preserving tribal identity
keeping job; meeting monthly bills...
2/ Reflection of BOTH

-PRESENCE of real realities on the ground (pain, suffering, health, loss of job, identity, relative status (to other identity groups) )

-ABSENCE of real rallying leadership to unify galvinize

focus shifted from

far horizon vision
TO
front door step...
3/ Notable

To win votes from workers:
Trump ATTACKED elites + FOREIGNERS stealing US jobs

Yang (having raised money from technologists + VCs)
ATTACKS technology + AUTOMATION for stealing US jobs

What will allow a return to
future-focused, gaze-shifting inspiring moonshots?

1/A story of PATIENCE
—and a brilliant perfectionist engineer

A perfectionist engineer wanted to inspire her daughter—
so she always built things at home + had her help.

It started with Legos, robots + coding

—BUT each had to be PERFECT
or the engineer mom would get upset...
2/ Wanting to teach her daughter a LESSON she went back to old roots of hand crafts & the creativity from limits.

They would build a golden well—using exactly 100 bricks

So they sketched plans, made calculations, designed angles to make a gold well using EXACTLY 100 bricks...
3/
 They bought gold paint
carefully painted each brick
+ placed each one in its place

Just as they finished—the daughter held up 1 extra gold brick

The perfectionist engineer was confused + angry!

She grabbed the brick
& THREW it out the backyard
as high + far as she could—

Ok. So I've seen a few of these type of posts from a few heads concerning ghostwriting when it comes to women emcees. And I want to set the record straight historically. Specifically on MC Lyte....
2) Now let's start off with the foundation of why male hip-hop heads always seem to jump head on into the SHE DOESN'T WRITE HER OWN RHYMES trope. Which is quite misogynistic and misses the point about the power dynamic between men/women that has existed in the hip-hop industry.
3) For much of the '80s and '90s hip-hop was controlled by male gatekeeping producers and label heads. In the early '80s women MC's were seen as a mere novelty. The likes of Sha Rock and Angie B were in aberration. These early women pioneers wrote their own rhymes.

I feel anxious for my children because tomorrow if mob surrounds them and asks, “Are you a Hindu or a Muslim?” …they will have no answer, says actor #NaseeruddinShah

#Tathya with Apoorvanand
In the context of the Sajjan Kumar conviction in the 1984 genocidal violence against Sikhs, we need to rethink about other incidents of violence that have happened in the country, says Prof. Apoorvanand.
We wish you a #MerryChristmas with the Christian Qawwals of Delhi.
"People look at me and wonder who I really am. I have only one answer for them. I am you," says Bernard Rufus, also known as Sahil Sufi Nizam, a popular singer of Christian Qawwalis.

Banyak banget yang nanya, ngerjain startup tu asik ya? Gw share dikit ya ilmu gw di per-startup-an selama 13 tahun terakhir. Bakal panjang ya jadi sabar-sabar ngikutinnya
Gw yakin banyak banget di sini yang ngebayangin jadi kaya Mark Zuckerberg gara-gara nonton the social network. Bikin startup tidak seindah itu, apalagi jaman sekarang, PENUH PENDERITAAN. Iya lo ga salah baca. PENUH PENDERITAAN. Tapi bukan berarti ga asik kok sob nanti lo liat
Pengalaman startup pertama gw dimulai tahun 2005. Startup pertama gw adalah sebuat software house. Jaman itu masih ngenes lah. Kenapa ngenes? Itu jamannya masih kalo lo di bidang IT harus bisa jadi superman yang bisa segala macem dan dibayar serendah mungkin
