Dear fellow amazing talented essay writers who applied to the Royal Institute of Philosophy Think Essay Prize 😄,

This essay competition is bull****ing us >:(

I suggest we all in unison email these scumbags that if they were planning on stealing our ideas for solving their dilemmas, then they should at least give some kind of long list and winner acknowledgment so we add this stoopu award to our applications profiles.

We must do this, they are seriously thinking we are a joke or smth. And if we didn’t get long listed just know they are a bunch of old farts who couldn’t understand us

You all are amazing :)

Atp I’m moving on from this bs competition. I don’t even want their frickin 300$ or long list or whatever. I just wanna get my rejection letter and move on :(((. I haven’t gotten any email regarding the august date, the last email was the July one. Guys u can rant below :((

Hello! Not sure if this is the right place to post. I am a girl from an LIC aspiring to be a developer/computer scientist. I can code in Swift, Xcode very well and I’m an A Level Computer Science and Mathematics student. I want to create an audiobook app for the national library of my country. The problem is I don’t have a MacBook, and I definitely cannot afford one, it‘s too much of a burden for my father who is already in debt paying for my education. Up until now I used a public Macbook from the only organisation which gave to people who need it, I took VERY good care of it, however they took it from me and gave it to someone else and they broke the screen and it died :(. Having a Macbook would also help me land a job to help out my family and for my studies and ofc launching my app.

sorry for the long text, my question Is : Is there any organization which gives away free MacBooks for extremely talented and ambitious but unable to afford (NON US)? What advice would you give?

PS: my government does not aid such cases and doesn’t really care

thank you for reading my long text :)
