The Globe is full-on Great Re$et mode and it is literally making me sick:
"Tech startups pivot to solve new problems in the pandemic; This year's crop of MassChallenge companies is pursuing learning pods, restaurant safety, and remote work" by Scott Kirsner Globe Correspondent, August 24, 2020
The print version leads with "Looking for opportunity amid chaos."
For many of us, the colliding crises of 2020 feel like daily chaos that must be trudged through.
Aww, poor f**k.
Entrepreneurs are different: Many of them see opportunity in the chaos, and among the 130 companies participating in the MassChallenge summer entrepreneurship programs in Boston and Providence, you can find plenty of evidence. The nonprofit programs usually bring together startups from around the world to share a large office space, learn from mentors, and rub shoulders with investors and executives from larger companies — but this summer, MassChallenge is trying to deliver all that programming virtually.
Everything is going to the Matrix, 'er virtual.
Many of these startups were created around one idea, but have quickly adapted their business plans to solve problems created by the coronavirus pandemic.
The goddamn f**king virus, if it even exists at all, is being used to redesign our entire way of life to serve sick, psychopathic, genocidal eugenist control freaks with government and the Globe pimping for them.
I better be careful, and I don't know how much longer I can do this.
California-based NurturePods.org was originally focused on matching single parents who live together in homes with other single parents — a “co-living” arrangement that would help address the high costs of housing in the San Francisco Bay Area, but the two working parents who started the company, Deborah Tu and Joey Jelenik, saw that the spring’s sudden shift to remote learning created a more urgent problem.
“Parents face a dilemma,” says Tu, who is currently on maternity leave from her full-time job at Google. “How do you watch children at home, make sure they’re learning, and also work? The answer is, they can’t.” She and Jelenik realized that the software they were using to match single parents into shared housing could also be applicable for setting up “pods” of kids who would learn together. NurturePods has a 14-point matching system, Tu explains, that takes into account criteria like children’s age, location, size of the group, and the families’ criteria for reducing health risks, like whether everyone needs to be socially distanced at all times, or whether all of the families need to agree to avoid airline travel for the duration of the school year.
Another key criteria: whether the parents plan to share responsibility for supervising the kids, or whether they plan to hire a “pod leader,” like a teacher or babysitter, to do that.
Tu says that NurturePods is building up a database of teachers looking for this kind of work. The company started matching families in the Bay Area over the summer, and is now planning to expand to Greater Boston.
The Globe is feigning concern about the further inequality it would breed while promoting the very idea.
That's like hugging you as a friend while stabbing you in the back.
Garrett Weinstein, a recent graduate of Tufts University, started a site called TravelEZ last year to collect information about how accessible restaurants were to people with mobility impairments, but over the summer, he realized another dimension was becoming important: What were restaurants doing to provide a safe dining experience, given concerns about COVID transmission in public spaces? So Weinstein is planning to launch a new mobile app, CareFull, next month. The app will let restaurant owners communicate what they’re doing, but will also gather reviews from diners. Are tables spaced six feet apart? Are patrons wearing masks when they’re not seated at a table? Is there a hands-free way to get in and out of the restroom?
So Weinstein is going to help promote the snitch society with his totalitarian app with Kirsner promoting it, huh?
I'm not only losing my appetite, I'm wrenching at this slop from you-know-joo.
Based on the data the app collects, Weinstein says, CareFull will categorize restaurants as “not compliant,” “compliant,” or “outstanding.” He says the app will have “over 100 reviewed venues” when it launches next month, and that the startup has plans to expand to New York, Washington, and Miami by the end of the year.
Like there is going to be any restaurants left, etc.
More and more this feels like a worthless exercise, reading this $hit spew in the Globe that is not objective journalism but offensively insulting elitist agenda-pushing.
I suppose all these f**kers are talking about next year when we have all been either vaccinated nor exterminated, the sick evil f**ks!
Nitesh Mehrotra is a former manager at Cisco Systems, the networking and communications giant based in San Jose, Calif. After his family’s planned relocation from Boston to San Jose didn’t work out, he started a company that would help other workers moving to new cities find their ideal neighborhood to live in. The startup’s main customers were recruiting and relocation departments in large tech companies. As they suddenly stopped moving workers around the United States, “our business nearly went under due to COVID,” Mehrotra says.
To try and save it, he decided to adapt to the emerging “work from anywhere” model, and target individuals thinking about buying or renting a home further away from their company’s office — or moving to another city and becoming a fully remote worker. His site, NextBurb, can calculate a commute distance, if you need to get in to an office — or it can give you information about the quality of schools, the closest dog park, or the crime rate. The startup plans to make money by connecting people with real estate agents who can help them purchase or rent a home.
They mean a stay-at-home economy, wherever home may be, and I guess they haven't seen the unemployment figures or the rest, because they are acting like it's $ituation normal!
Like NextBurb, a startup called Generus was originally founded in a world where people worked together in offices. It would help companies arrange volunteer events for employees — things like helping to support 5K charity races, making sleeping mats for refugees, or preparing meals for community supper programs. By late spring, chief executive Jamie Larsen was noticing that companies were looking for ways to keep their work-from-home employees connected to one another.
“Companies can and did do online happy hours, but in volunteering together, you get all of the good brain chemicals — and you can really bond employees, helping them find that meaning and purpose,” she says.
God damn you all to hell for going along with this, you sick f**ks.
I need to be careful going forward because I'm ready to let rip with the swear words.
This insultingly elitist and offensive crap has me boiling.
Larsen says that running volunteering events as a video meeting, rather than in-person, is “five to ten times as hard. You have to be incredibly artful with facilitation” — especially since many people spend a good chunk of their day in video meetings.
What do participants in a virtual volunteering event actually do? They might read letters from prisoners and collect books to donate to the Quincy-based Prison Book Program, say, or take a painting lesson and donate the resulting artwork to Household Goods, an Acton nonprofit that helps people furnish their homes.
Generus has signed on four new clients in August. Larsen says she believes human resources executives at companies “want to make sure their employees are staying healthy and well in this work-from-home economy,” and that part of that will be by providing new kinds of programs, like online volunteering, that help employees stay connected with colleagues and do something positive for their community, and the work-from-home economy, Larsen says, “could be around for a long time.”
Or FOREVER if the Globe and the sick f**ks they front for have their way!
To some people, that may sound depressing. To entrepreneurs trying to grow businesses, it sounds like opportunity.

What you are looking at there was PURE EVIL, and I should have Zoomed right past it:
"Zoom glitches, briefly grinding US schools to a halt" by Mae Anderson Associated Press, August 24, 2020
NEW YORK — Teachers and parents got a brief glimpse of a new kind of pandemic-era nightmare Monday when Zoom — the video-conferencing service that powers everything from distance learning to business meetings to casual, socially distant get-togethers — abruptly went dead.
They should be happy since the "service" is for pedophiles!
The problem still isn't fixed, and the Globe never brought it up again!
For roughly 2½ hours Monday morning, many users were unable to load the Zoom website; others could neither host nor join scheduled meetings. Zoom fixed the problem by 11:30 a.m., the company reported on its status page.
The timing was less than ideal, since many schools across the United States were just starting online instruction after a summer surge in the coronavirus pandemic scotched many plans to reopen classes with students present in the flesh.
“Today was horrible,’’ said Jacqueline Donovan, a professor at Broward College in Broward County, Fla. Her 12-year-old daughter Michaela and 14-year-old son Jayden were trying to log onto Zoom classes, but unable to.
“They were both panic stricken and anxious,’’ she said. Meanwhile, Donovan herself was trying to hold her first class, an introduction to business, and getting frantic e-mails from her own students. Her class was eventually canceled.
Better make sure DCF knows.
“You become so accustomed to the software working, then (when it doesn’t) you realize how dependent you are on the software and it’s a little scary,’’ she said.
Imagine being dependent on government for food or a vaccine tattoo to buy and sell!
Zoom did not disclose the cause of the problem, which appeared to hit both coasts of the United States especially hard. Its shares fell less than 3 percent during regular trading.
Grade schools, high schools, and universities are relying on Zoom and competing technologies like Microsoft Teams to teach remotely and reduce the chance of infection during the pandemic.
Oh, so Billy G benefits from the remote learning $cam, huh?
C'mon, America, wake the fuck up!
Schools began opening over the past month with a wide array of in-person, hybrid, and online schooling plans. In 2019, during a normal school year, about 80 percent of elementary and secondary schools had opened by the last week of August, according to Pew Research.
Internet services from Facebook to Amazon go down all the time, but few have become so crucial to companies, government, and schools that their absence can spur brief moments of panic. These days, when Zoom goes down, it’s more like a power outage or phones going dead, making it a modern sort of utility for a nation still enduring the ravages of COVID-19.
Oh, God, I'm going to puke.
Zoom and similar services ‘‘have been elevated to what we call ‘mission critical applications,’’’ said technology analyst Tim Bajarin, president of consultancy Creative Strategies. “They’re no longer nice to have, they’re now must have.’’
Per the GREAT GODDAMN RESET that is ENRICHING the FABULOUSLY WEALTHY beyond their wildest dreams of avarice.
While Zoom has built up server farms and spent millions investing in its software, it was still a relatively nascent company when the coronavirus hit in March, Bajarin said. “The bottom line is, software glitches happen.’’
This is such a f**king crock of $hit! They had this thing ready to roll because the genocidal elite have planned this $camdemic for a long time.
It's sad to see how far they have gotten away with it as they destroy all that is good in this world.
TRUE EVIL, folks.
Bryan Grant in Crystal Lake, Ill., had just corralled his 3 1/2-year old twins and 5-year-old son in front of computers to start their first days at preschool and kindergarten. Then came an urgent message from their school, 30 minutes ahead of classes, to use Google instead.
He rushed to install the software and sign in, but the classes descended into semichaos as the children in the kindergarten class unmuted themselves, something they can’t do on Zoom. His 5-year-old was nearly in tears as he tried to follow the rules and raise his hand for a question, but was talked over by other kids who unmuted themselves.
Just wait until they start sticking the kids.
Grant, who also uses Zoom for his job as a financial aid specialist, thinks the country may be almost too dependent on one product.
“It actually does really show you how much we are all depending on Zoom,’’ he said. “It should be considered essential. Every effort needs to be made to make sure this is available for everyone.’’
So you can be monitored and data collected on your kids.
This shameless, sickening agenda promotion is f**king goddamn evil.

"A Florida judge granted a temporary injunction Monday against the state’s executive order requiring school districts to reopen schools during the pandemic, the Florida teachers union said. According to the Florida Teachers Association, Circuit Court Judge Charles Dodson granted its request to put a hold on the order issued in July by state Education Commissioner Richard Corcoran compelling schools to reopen. The Florida Education Department said it could not immediately comment. Some districts in south Florida were given permission by the state to start the 2020-21 school year remotely because of high virus spread, but other districts had to begin in-person education, even if they did not want to. In one instance, the administration of Governor Ron DeSantis, a close ally of President Trump, threatened to withhold nearly $200 million from Hillsborough County if it carried out its plan to open remotely. The district changed its plan in light of the threat."
I'm actually glad he issued the injuction to keep the kids safe from an ambush.
"Millions of Mexican school children returned to classes, but not schools, on Monday as the government attempted to start a new school year despite the challenges of the pandemic. A system cobbling together online classes, instruction broadcast on television channels and radio programming in Indigenous languages is meant to keep students from missing out in a country already defined by deep inequalities. As other countries around the world have already discovered, there is no perfect replacement for in-person classes, and for some students it marked an early end to their academic careers. The Mexican government enlisted the country’s largest private television companies to dedicate channels to school programming around the clock. Education officials developed schedules giving students at each level multiple opportunities to watch their classes. Education Secretary Esteban Moctezuma said officials decided to rely on television because it has a far greater penetration that the internet. Still, questions abound about how families, especially those with multiple children, will juggle the classes along with jobs that could force both parents out of the home — often taking their children along with them. More than half of Mexicans work in the informal economy, jobs that often don’t allow them to work from home. There is a strong fear that the pandemic will spell the end of education for many students who will stop their studies. Many private schools have closed as cash-strapped parents stopped making tuition payments....."
The fear is well-founded, but we all; must sacrifice for the greater community as we re$et!
That is the OVERWHELMING PROPAGANDA PUSH I have seen in the ma$$ media lately, as they tie f**King climate change to COVOID -- for the greater good, of course!
So how is your life doing, reader?

"Just as millions of children are heading back to school, the World Health Organization says those aged 6 to 11 should wear masks in some cases to help fight the spread of coronavirus. The recommendations presented Monday follow the widespread belief that children under 12 are not considered as likely to propagate the virus as much as adults. Children in general face less severe virus symptoms than do adults, with the elderly the most vulnerable to severe infection and death. Now WHO says decisions about whether children aged 6 to 11 should wear masks should consider factors like whether COVID-19 transmission is widespread in the area where the child lives; the child’s ability to safely use a mask; and adult supervision when taking the masks on or off. The shift comes as confirmed COVID-19 infections worldwide have surpassed 23 million and confirmed deaths have passed 809,000, according to a tally by Johns Hopkins University....."
The science has proven kids really transmit and suffer least, and is there anyone left in the world that believes the evil, lying bastards over at the WHO and related appendages, as it looks like even the AP is engaged in facilitating sex traffic.
"Angry, maskless spectators forced themselves into the Idaho House special session on the pandemic Monday, shattering a glass door, rushing into the gallery that had limited seating because of the virus and forcing lawmakers to ask for calm in a crowd that included a man carrying an assault-style weapon. After some people shoved their way past Idaho State Police, Republican House Speaker Scott Bedke allowed the gallery to fully open as long as the crowd stopped chanting and was respectful. “I want to always try to avoid violence,” he told the Associated Press later. “My initial reaction of course was to clear the fourth floor, but we had room for at least some more.” He said he was more disappointed than surprised at the violence. “I think we’re better than that,” he said. Several conservative lawmakers asked for calm and decorum from the gallery crowd that included a man armed with a semiautomatic weapon. The session started with a full gallery and few masks."
Look, you lying tyrants have left us no other choice and God bless the citizens of Idaho and the police who are on their side!

I was told "coronavirus infections in the Netherlands have been on the rise since many restrictions that had successfully reined in the virus were lifted July 1," and that's after Holland's top scientist came out and said masks don't work and they cause damage -- something that Google has scrubbed and which the Globe ignored.

"Americans looking to purchase Clorox wipes may have to wait until next year until stores are fully restocked, according to the company’s chief executive. Demand for cleaning products and disinfectants has exploded since the pandemic began, and while Clorox officials had previously said consumers would find their cleaning supplies back on shelves this summer, the heightened demand continues to outpace the company’s ability to churn out more. Many disinfectant wipes are made from a material called polyester spunlace, which is in short supply because it is used to make personal protective equipment, such as masks and medical gowns, CEO Benno Dorer told Reuters. “We feel like it’s probably going to take until 2021 before we’re able to meet all the demand that we have,” he said....."
They want us dirty and unclean because it serves so many purpose, and they are just going by the book:

The catalog was made available to existing Audible users Monday, and the new plan will go on sale later this week....."
I would rather suffer through the Globe than those elite $cum and frauds from the filth capital of the world.
