How very “Handmaid’s Tale” of them. Next it’ll be uniforms, the lessons and activities allowed for girls are whittled down, separate lessons with some more indoctrination… It’s clear that’s what the government is aiming for and people voted for it.
Red pill video summary.
It’s the modern version of sacrificing people in a volcano to appease the gods.
“Fuck it, might as well keep doing what I’m doing.”
And that last group is going to be angry when they can’t keep doing their stuff when insurance rates go insane so they can’t buy houses or cars, or when food prices keep going up even faster than they are now.
They really want to force gamers to buy their new games which are pretty much like the old games but now with extra helpings of ads, gambling mechanics and micro transactions on top
Dithering, it’s a lost art. It always reminds me of Monkey Island.
“Murder your darlings” as they say in writing.
Our boss was freaking out over people sometimes doing some private calls during work hours and at a certain point absolutely forbade it. So yeah, people would just end the call at 17:00 sharp and switch off the work phone. It took one week before that rule was rescinded.
It’s EU law that if you have to be standby to pick up the phone and go on location at a moment’s notice, those are working hours and need to be paid in full. Most companies are pretty careful to not put it anywhere in the contracts or house rules that you have to be on stand-by, but just verbally keep pushing for it. If they keep pushing, push back with asking for the written rules.
Living out the last excesses of a broken system before it all falls apart
That’s old news, no? I recall reading that basically from 2°C there is no more economic growth, what means a lot of people are thrown under the bus. From 3°C there is no more economy, meaning no food, heating, fighting everywhere. From 4°C there is basically no more humanity.
You can almost hear the EU lawyers cracking their knuckles and quietly saying: “about that user data protection.”
AI is a ridiculous broad term these days. Everybody had been slapping the label on anything. It’s kinda like saying “transportation” and it means anything between babies crawling up to wrap drive and teleportation.
Then you look at the USA where a large part of the population really wants there to be a King Donald the First.
In the end, the proof is the developer’s income. They seem to think it’s worth it on average. Of course the average public contains a bunch of people who want to help out that nice Nigerian prince.
It increases engagement and that’s what the developer wants, especially if there are ads or purchases in the app. So you might hate it but it works.
Probably most of those vacancies without simply disappear if the wages are not allowed to be exploitative.
If you pay in a supermarket with your card and ask for a cash withdrawal too, you have to sign the receipt for receiving the money.
Everytime with a project when you ask a document that says what has been agreed with the customer and the estimate for a planning and they look at you like a deer in the headlights to then forward a document from the sales guy that just says “we’ll do everything” and a phone book sized map with “a few additional demands from the customer.” Yeah, that project is auditioning for a role as the Hindenburg.
