Nichole

Orwell warns that we will be overcome by an externally imposed oppression. But in Huxley’s vision, no Big Brother is required to deprive people of their autonomy, maturity and history. As he saw it, people will come to love their oppression, to adore the technologies that undo their capacities to think.
What Orwell feared were those who would ban books. What Huxley feared was that there would be no reason to ban a book, for there would be no one who wanted to read one. Orwell feared those who would deprive us of information. Huxley feared those who would give us so much that we would be reduced to passivity and egoism. Orwell feared that the truth would be concealed from us. Huxley feared the truth would be drowned in a sea of irrelevance.

Love! This line inspired our studio's illustration: "The inspiration for the illustration comes from the first four lines of his poem, Auguries of Innocence written around 1803. Blake was heavily inspired by symbols and icons, so we used symbols as a nod to his artistic perspective. A swirl of sand and stars emerge from the gap between two hands of a clock. They create the shape of a wildflower, as they curl into an infinity sign.

Does anyone know of any internships or opportunities for college students in the bitcoin space?
My son is graduating and headed off to college next year. He is a self-taught programmer (he programmed multiple Roblox games over the years and invested every penny he made into bitcoin - he's a whole coiner at 18!). He is also a math scholar, wrote algorithms for Columbia University's biomed team, and an all-around curious, hard worker. Just thought I would ask here to see if anyone knows where to start the search. Photo of kitten for attention.

Depends on the user. Great for the curious, open-minded, and those who leverage it for idea generation, iterative tasks. Terrible for those with a propensity to cheat, cut corners. etc. We have two teen sons in high school and teachers are already struggling with students using it for essays.

I was hoping the follow/unfollow game wouldn't find its way here. When I was prompted to follow all accounts and saw that it was just 1100 or so, I followed everyone because I thought it was cool to connect with all of the early users. I was part of the dot com crowd in NYC in the late nineties and back then we were all just excited to connect. Similar vibe here that I hope sticks.
