01 选举之夜的全党难题
1.这一刻，难以想象更多的令人担忧的阶段。比起“有时间聊一聊吗？”更差的是，“我对一些事很好奇”这是特别精准的，对于民主党而言
，这些人住在现在臭名昭著的所有地方，从 2016 年开始。那个时候一个哭泣的女人，在希拉里克林顿的派对上， 在 Javits Center，纽约，这件事变成令人震惊的特朗普胜利的阿凡达事件（暗指这种不明朗的诉求，和特朗普特立独行的风格，形成一种意外格局）。 这件事情另一面，Hilton 观点，比较接近特朗普，也非常有标志性，即那天晚上从垂死到狂喜，酒吧里充满了 MAGA 年轻人的帽子。
fraught phrase 令人担忧的阶段
the now-infamous 现在臭名昭著的
conundrum 难题
MAGA “MAGA”是“让美国再次伟大”（Make America Great Again）的简称。这是美国前总统特朗普在大选及执政期间一直使用的口号。在拜登看来，MAGA 是最极端的组织。
from moribund to ecstatic 从垂死到狂喜
2.2020 年，由于流行病的缘故，面对面活动大多数都取消了（were off the table），延缓了 2016 年的伤感又欢乐事件的重启。 Eventbrite（公司）是承担这次派对的平台，确认了比 2020 年的派对，党员多了 78%。 （然而，Javits Center 官方拒绝评论，当谈及他们是否举办另一场选举的时候）所以，人们今年的计划是什么？
in-person events 面对面活动
than in 2020 by its count 比 2020 年的数量 多/少 了……
3.总统候选人，计划反应他们的积极性，关于这场比赛到底有多快被召唤，纽约时报观点如下：
4.副总统哈里斯？她会举办一项活动，在 华盛顿的霍华德大学。但是，口号并非“Let's Party”。
5.换言之，星期二晚上不会必须做出结论，充满着胜利和妥协的演讲，以及所有可视的画面伴随他们。当地分支机构，关于民主党和共和党的，正在向前进步，还伴随各种事件。在纽约，年轻的共和党人俱乐部正在审查党内聚集地，在东部乡村。民主党方面，最年轻的城市委员会成员，Chi Oss 举办一项公益选举，在 布鲁克林。（他确实告诉纽约杂志，因其封面故事是关于选举的焦虑，“我真的非常紧张！”）。
in other words 换言之
replete with 充满
6.勇敢的人总是坚持的。“完全没有颤抖”Tim Burke 说到，NYC 总统，也是新的自由党派。他说，超过 200 人拥有 RSVP，由于这个组织选举之夜在曼哈顿成为监督党（言下之意，输掉选举）。“我们对结果很满意”他说，没什么他们能够监督的，因为结果是国会竞争结局中的一个（大家都意料得到），总统选举也一样。女性民主党俱乐部，也是同样有热情：大约 125 人，包括几队欧洲旅行者，签署出席在华盛顿的会议，还有自助晚餐，有特色炸鸡和热菜。以民主党聚会入场券票根为荣。“我们很乐观，关于选举结果”集团总统 Rosalyn Coates 在邮件中说到。
trepidation 颤抖，惶恐
a bunch of congressional races 一系列国会竞争
feature jerk chicken and hot dish 特色炸鸡和热菜
7.可能大多数难以穿针引线的事情，是无党派的选举当，这正是Vinyl 之夜创始人、民主党成员 Rebecca Lynn 试图去做到的，同她布鲁克林的聚集人。“我的党很独特，因为我将要有 3 个电视屏幕，在 CNN 和 MSNBC 建立的，以及福克斯新闻，”她说到，“这将是字幕，因为我们将有DJ播放音乐。”
throw her party 举办派对，组织一个党派。
on closed caption 隐藏式字幕
8.尽管对很多人来讲很难以想象，在另一边的人身上花时间，而且还是在如此激烈的竞争中，Lynn 的理性，和她组织起一个党派是有关的。“无论发生什么，我不想一个人”但是，作为一个在2016年举办选举派对的人发言，还伴随很多哭泣的客人 —— 会被孤立（being alone）可能只是一方面。
9.确信的是，这是 Rusty Foster，Today in Tabs 创始人（或者 Today in Trails），非常翘首以盼（选举）。“我将会睡在地上，和往常一样”Foster 在消息中说到，长达数月，他开启阿巴拉契亚山径之旅，他到周三早上之前不知结果也没什么。“我认为，这是另一种每天都在走路的情形，然后再某地驻扎。”这显然是更糟的方法，度过漫漫长夜。

02 简要新闻
1.这是为什么某些州摇摆得那么厉害，在整个选举时期
2.Bernard Marcus，亿万富翁的 Home Depot 合伙人，95岁死亡
3.高盛计划加上大多数执行官，关于其合伙人 David Solomon 接管
03 在互联网上要小心
1.几年前 Facebook 和 Twitter 一头扎进美国四年大选的历史事件中，他们开展了一系列政策，与错误的领导政策相斗争，吹捧其投资是内容平淡，以及只承诺他们做得到的，进而避免他们的平台上所有都免费（free-for-all）。2020年选举前几日，Facebook CEO 扎克伯格告诉投资人，选举将考研公司的整个一年的努力，努力保护政治的过程。“选举完整性现在是以及将会是正在发生的挑战”他说到，“我很骄傲，这些工作我们已经完成了。”
tout 吹捧
2.当那时候的特朗普总统使用其社交媒体账户，这件事种下了不和谐（sow discord），他的支持者确实也诉诸了暴力，在 2021 年 1 月 6 日的时候，两家公司都禁止了其行为。然而，自从那时候起，每个社交网站都恢复了特朗普的账户。他们也没有使用 2020 年使用的方法，尽管他们都用自己的方法。扎克伯格试图减少“突出政治内容”，只要 Meta 提供的服务。当 Elon Musk 2022 年购买了推特，重新命名推特为 X，大多数被拒绝的审核的内容，都是说特朗普的 All-in。
sow 播种
reinstate 使恢复原状
content moderation 内容审核
3.整个社交媒体行业，这些公司都减少了内容审核，经常更多地依赖于 AI 审核，经常更多地依赖 AI 技术，这些都可能忽略细微差别。只有主要的社交媒体平台，会采取更激进的措施，整个选举流程在抖音上展示，这项服务在美国也能使用了，在 2020 年也只用了 2 年。
nuance 细微差别
pick up nuance 抓出细微差别
4.学术说，所有因素都到位了，因为对平台的危险的滥用。他们关注的内容，都试图迷惑人们，关于投票过程，试图声称早期胜利，以及一些使用不当信息的活动，播种关于结果一致性的怀疑（disturb 人们信心）。平台不允许这样的行为，但是一些特殊方式会推行他们自己的规则，这是能够带来巨大改变的。
04 MBA级别的，距离性别公正更加接近
1.说到女人在 MBA 项目中的获益，长期以来的趋势，是鼓励的。即便这些项目让人痛苦的缓慢。
2.依据 Forte 基金会报告，依据美国的 MBA 项目数量，目前只有 61 个 MBA 项目，同时（举办在）海外 MBA 项目数量，达到 6166 个。自从 2020 年，注册的女性人数，上升了 13%，超过了 3% 增长率，针对男女混合计量而言。他们统计的学校，都是在 Forte 基金会之内的，倡导 MBA 的组织，他们的工作目标，使得更多的女性在 MBA 项目中获益。非盈利组织，出台了年报数据，主要关于 2011 年以来女性注册 MBA 项目人数。那一年，2011 年，有 4000 名女性注册了 MBA 项目，在 39 个学校。
3.女性组成了所有学生的 42%，在 MBA 项目之中，2023 年秋天，同样比例。“我们很像‘我们停滞了吗？’”，Forte 基金会 CEO Elissa Sangster 说到。“但是，我们增长了那么多年，有几年停滞也很正常。过去几年，所有注册数字，包括男性女性，都增加了。我经常在课堂上说，无论是 45% 还是 50% 女性，你真的是可以看出差异。”
4.关于“女性占据至少一半学生数量”的目标，已然避开了大多数商学院研究院，但是，也已经有进步了。
eluded 避开
01 The election night party conundrum
1.At this moment, it’s hard to imagine a more fraught phrase. Worse than “got a minute to talk?” or even “I’m
curious about something.” It’s especially potent for Democrats who lived through the now-infamous scenes from
2016, when crying women at Hillary Clinton’s party at the Javits Center in New York City became avatars of the
surprise Donald Trump victory. On the flip side, the view from the Hilton near Trump Tower was equally iconic,
where the night went from moribund to ecstatic, filled with young men in MAGA hats at the bar.
2.In 2020, thanks to the pandemic, in-person events were mostly off the table, postponing the reboot of 2016
trauma/joy. Eventbrite, the party planning platform, affirms that there are 78% more parties tonight than in 2020
by its count. (Officials at the Javits Center, however, when asked if they would ever host another election night
party, declined to comment.) So, what are people planning this year?
3.The presidential candidates’ plans reflect their optimism (or not) on how quickly the race will be called. From
the New York Times:
4.And Vice President Kamala Harris? She’ll be hosting an event at Howard University in Washington. But the message
isn’t “Let’s party.”
5.In other words, Tuesday night won’t necessarily be decisive, replete with victory and concession speeches and all the visuals that accompany them. Local branches of both Democratic and Republican parties are moving forward with events. In New York City, the Young Republican Club is having a viewing party somewhere in the East Village. On the Democratic side, the youngest city council member, Chi Ossé, is hosting a benefit election party in Brooklyn. (He did tell New York magazine, for its cover story on election anxiety, “I’m stressed as f---.”)
6.The brave ones persevere. “Absolutely no trepidation,” says Tim Burke, president of NYC New Liberals. He says
more than 200 people have RSVP’d for the group’s election night watch party in Manhattan. “We’re feeling very
good about the results,” he says, noting that they’ll be watching for the outcomes of a bunch of congressional
races as well as the presidential election. The Woman’s National Democratic Club was similarly enthusiastic:
About 125 people (including a group of European tourists!) have signed up to attend its event in Washington, with
a buffet dinner that will feature jerk chicken and hot dish, in honor of the Democratic ticket’s roots. “We are
optimistic about the outcome of the election,” the group’s president, Rosalyn Coates, said in an email.
7.Perhaps the most difficult needle to thread is a nonpartisan election party—which is exactly what Rebecca Lynn,
creator of Vinyl Nights/Dancing for Democracy is attempting with her Brooklyn gathering. “My party's very unique,
because I will have three TV screens set up on CNN and MSNBC and Fox News,” she says, “It will be on closed
caption because we will have DJs playing music.”
8.Although it’s hard for many to imagine spending time with people on the other side of this closely contested
race, Lynn’s rationale for throwing her party is relatable: “Whatever happens, I didn’t want to be alone.” But
—speaking as someone who had an election night party in 2016 that featured many crying guests—being alone might
be just the thing.
9.Certainly, it’s what Rusty Foster, creator of the Today in Tabs (and Today in Trails) newsletter, is looking
forward to. “I’ll be sleeping on the ground, as usual,” Foster said in a message, from his monthslong
Appalachian Trail journey, noting that he won’t know the results until Wednesday morning, at the earliest. “I
think it’s just another walking all day and then camping somewhere.” There are definitely worse ways to spend
the night.
02 Brief
1.Here’s why swing states hold so much sway over the US election.
2.Bernard Marcus, the billionaire co-founder of Home Depot, is dead at 95.
3.Goldman Sachs Group plans to add the most executives to its partnership since David Solomon took over.
03 Be Careful Out There On the Internet
1.Heading into the US presidential election four years ago, Facebook and Twitter instituted substantial policies to combat misleading political content, touted their investments into content moderation and promised to do all they could to avoid a free-for-all on their platforms. Just before Election Day in 2020, Facebook Chief Executive
Officer Mark Zuckerberg told investors the election would be a test of the company’s yearslong effort to protect
the political process. “Election integrity is and will be an ongoing challenge,” he said. “And I’m proud of
the work we’ve done here.”
2.When then-President Donald Trump used his social media accounts to sow discord and his supporters did resort to
violence on Jan. 6, 2021, both companies banned him. Since then, however, each has reinstated Trump’s accounts.
They’ve also moved away from the approach they took in 2020, albeit each in their own ways. Zuckerberg has tried
to reduce the prominence of political content on services owned by Meta Platforms Inc., while Elon Musk, who
bought Twitter in 2022 and renamed it X, has mostly rejected content moderation and has gone all-in for Trump.
3.Across the social media industry, companies have reduced staffing on content moderation, often leaning more on
artificial-intelligence-powered technology that may have trouble picking up nuance. The only major social media
platform taking a more aggressive approach this election cycle may be TikTok, a service that had been active in
the US for barely two years during the 2020 election.
4.Academics say all the elements are in place for dangerous abuse of the platforms. They’re concerned about posts
that seek to confuse people about the voting process, attempts to declare victory early and campaigns using
disinformation to sow doubts about the integrity of the outcome. The platforms don’t allow such behavior, but the
specific ways they enforce their rules could make a huge difference.
04 MBA Classes Get Closer to Gender Equity
1.When it comes to women making gains in MBA programs, the long-term trends are encouraging, even as progress can
seem painfully slow.
2.According to a report from the Forté Foundation, the number of entering female students this fall at 61 MBA
programs in the US and abroad reached a high of 6,166. Since 2020, enrollment of female students has increased
13%, outpacing the 3% growth rate for men and women combined. The schools all are members of Forté, an advocacy
organization that works to help more women earn an MBA. The nonprofit has published annual data on women’s
enrollment since 2011. That year, there were roughly 4,000 women enrolled in full-time MBA programs at 39 schools.
3.Women made up 42% of all students enrolled in an MBA program this fall, the same percentage as in 2023. “We were like, ‘Are we stuck?’” says Forté Chief Executive Officer Elissa Sangster. “But we’ve had so many years of growth, it’s natural to have some static years. And in the last year, the numbers of total enrollment for both
men and women increased. I always say that in a classroom, whether it’s 45% or 50% women, you can’t really tell
the difference.”
4.The goal of having women make up at least half of students has eluded most graduate business schools, but there is progress on that front, too.
