Important note. There is a five-year lockup period during which these kids (the parents on their behalf), cannot sell the stock. Such a market-manipulating move to keep a floor under his stock price. This helps him with his existing shares. And even if they fall, that’s on the kids.

Plot Twists

I'm linking this from both The Blue (MetaFilter) and directly to The Guardian website with the original story. If, like me and some of the others over on Metafilter, you find the narrative presented in The Guardian seems to be a little odd in it's arc and presentatin, I do suggest reading the comments over on MetaFilter. It is a very strange story.

Over 250,000 Ontario education workers on collision course with right-wing Ford government

The contract expirations provide an opportunity to develop a worker-led mobilization in defence of public education and against austerity and war, but such a movement will only develop in opposition to the trade union bureaucracy and its bankrupt protest politics.

What neoliberalism did to the UK. 25.3m people, including 14.9m working adults and 7.7m children, live below minimum income standard. Richest 1% has more wealth than the bottom 70% of the population combined. 50 families hold more wealth than 34m people. Can't grow economy on mass poverty.

I am generally opposed to capital punishment but I now concede there's a strong case for applying the death penalty to anyone who intentionally pursues a line of R&D that they *believe* will lead to the extinction of the human species. And Sam Altman and the AI bros are standing on the trapdoor.
