I know nothing about the issue but I hear recreational use and I immediately picture people driving 4 wheelers and dirt bikes through pristine land and I'm like nope.
man that is a super informative comment. I worked a shitty fast food job back in the day and I always felt like that was the hardest job I ever did. Literally just non stop work.
best engineering team sounds so general as to mean nothing. like were they really good backend rails and or java devs who had a lot of experience implementing backend credit card APIs?
these same bastards get government money to build new factories and buildings. If you're taking handouts you shouldn't be allowed to cut workers just to boost the stock price.
Money talks and if you don't like money they can just throw you out of a window or label you a terrorist so you never had any real power. Once they flex you've got nothing.
I don't see how this gets around a VPN? I still need a host in your example. That's what I'm paying a VPN for, a bunch of hosts around the world that are relatively fast.
There was a bootcamp by me. They had a squeaky clean image but were getting big payouts from placing candidates in a local fortune 500. People get used to that money.
I wouldn't put the blame entirely on the dealerships. The automakers are complicit in this whole thing too. Without the dealers there is no service model.
I remember reading this comment at that point. I totally agreed w/ the author, at least on point number one. A lot of us here where already paying for web hosting and using FTP clients to upload our files and like mentioned Linux, which had the time meant Ubuntu for most of us had it so nicely integrated into the file system. In someways we/Ubuntu were just ahead of the OneDrive. Honestly the only difference between OneDrive and the aforementioned setup at the time was it required you put in a host, username and password to set it up.
what fantasy land are you living in? Look at the auto industry, many examples of companies covering up defects which lead to deaths - how many CEOs are in jail? What about the tabacco industry? The company may get fined and please don't try to make some round about argument like that hurts the CEO, even if the company gets fined they're still living in their castles.
I've really noticed over the last couple months how much Business Insider too has been pandering to the Fortune 500 CEO - Headlines such as Return to office to maybe better for your health or suggesting to do extra work between your kids little league innings.
Businesses aren't charitable. They keep customers to donate money and then donate the money in the businesses name and get a tax write off. I agree it isn't the responsibility of business owners to take care of the homeless, it's the government. We should providing housing to these people. Luckily for us big businesses has advocated for a world that is good for them and bad for us. If free housing was available people wouldn't be so exploitable and would be able to hold out for higher paying jobs.
Since OP mentioned Italy it's worth mentioning places like Rome have plenty of public spaces that easily accessible which are great places to hang out and meet people. Here in the US we have parks by my house but they're really just giant fields w/ a baseball diamond. Maybe a place scape. What good is that for anyone?
I was at a cute little cafe the other day that serves little desserts and baked goods and someone sat down, opened their laptop, pulled out the mouse and headset and proceeded to join a conference call. They ordered a croissant. Dude eat your croissant, enjoy the atmosphere and leave. Go do that shit at home. Honestly even my public library has been overrun with people squatting all day for work.
A lot of ignorance in this comment. Many early American cities now big major metros were built on top of native American trading routes/trading posts. This idea of a blank slate is grounded is totally false.
"but the ceo had a scheduling conflict so he couldn't come to this thing that was really important to him". Does that ever make sense to anyone? It never made sense to me. I think it's about classism. These guys only want to hang out w/ the lower class if they're at the front of the room talking otherwise they want to come off as mysterious and too busy to have any time. What a load of shit.
The real power of the internet all along in my opinion was networked databases. Everything else is fluff and not a particularly great use of resources.
Huge waste of human capital kind of applies to the auto industry in general. There are so many makes and models and variations all requiring advanced engineering and manufacturing. We could solve a lot of other big problems w/ those engineers.
Ah yea here in America you're employer and pretty much let you go for any reason and there is not a damn thing you can do about it. Layoffs imply they're not your fault and firing does but it has no real meaning and the terms are used interchangeably.
I feel like this kind of attitude is where we go wrong as engineers. We spend so much time and energy bickering over and creating the perfect solution when sometimes you just need to ship and provide a solution.
I've 100% found AI to be super helpful in learning a new programming language or refreshing on one I haven't used in a while. Hey how do I this thing in Gleam? What's Gleams equivalent of y? I turn it first instead of forums/stackoverflow/google now and would say I only need to turn to other sources less than maybe 5% of the time.
These are the best examples yet. Consumer products held in the hand are probably at the forefront of this space. I'm baffled by how shitty the Apple Mouse is to hold. I think they didn't want to give off the appearance of a gaming mouse but that group hit the touch/ergonomics on the head.
I'm glad you came to the realization that we need unions. We're also overmanaged because the actual managers e.g. the C suite thinks we need to be watched over. Historically the rate of workers to managers was way lower.
