1000 faculty hit the picket lines tomorrow, 930 am, lockout by @dalhousieu.bsky.social. A first for CDN research intensive universities. A reckless move by the Board - jeopardizing the fall term, ruining relations with faculty for years to come. Join us on the picket lines to #keepdalstrong!

Change in payments is only getting started
With increasing payments options for consumers, the winner will be the option that gives minimum friction, maximum fraud protection and as close to universal acceptance as possible.

If you're one of those "where are the protests" because the news has been ignoring them the past two months, there are 25,000 people gathered in DC today, and 20+ blocks full of people in Manhattan, and that's just two cities.
The protests have been happening; you're just being lied to again.

Fred alert
Some people will try to swoop into a situation in a way that creates confusion, delay and a flurry of activity that will only benefit themselves.

What's happening in Romania. An analysis for the rest of the world:
On 11/24/2024 we had the first round of the presidential election. In Romania, the voting system states that the top two contenders qualify for the second round, where whoever wins 50%+1 of the votes becomes president. 🧵👇
