Today was one of those special days where a local tells you about a secret spot and the next day you hike back to a giant brick ruin in the shape of an Uncharted level and you climb/hop/scramble all over it holding a nikon n80 w/zoom lens and late that night your body is 44 and was the entire time

One fairly straightforward fix would be to crack down on dual class share structures, which is how companies like Palantir and Meta get to enjoy the benefits of being publicly traded without any actual accountability to their shareholders.
It's a scam and there's no reason it has to be legal.
What *fun* and very elementary examples of probability theory I should use tomorrow before going into the axioms and some proofs in #philsci2? Just dice and cards is a bit boring. Hit me with your best ideas!
