Manufactured items SHOULD always be getting cheaper, that's part of capitalism & progress. Humans & buildings don't follow that same curve. So to attempt to compare those with items is folly. Also notice how cell phones & cell phone bills are not present in his items curve? That's a modern item that doesn't fit his desired outcome.
It's ok to check in with your old manager. (hey wanna get lunch? hows it going? etc) I went back to an old job after 9 months after having lunch with my old manager. I got a 25% raise out of it in total. I saw the grass wasn't greener and I came back to the job that I wanted when I had left originally. I was able to move up quite well after I came back, there was no harbored doubts.
This is a giant hermit crab shell move (I get this boomers job, you get my job, next person get your job) spurred on by massive wave of boomers retiring. Hopefully this ends up helping those at the bottom of the ladder the most as the current minimum wage is not acceptable.
If a company has a 40% profit margin and employees ask for raises they have two choices. Lower profit margin or raise prices. If they are in a competitive market then raising prices is a risk because their competitor may chose not to.
We recently changed some UI at work and suddenly there were thousands of errors, the stack went into some tampermonkey methods, so users were definitely automating our system to do their job. Now the problem is tracking the users, finding who originally wrote this and seeing about getting them a better salary to help improve how the site works.
I work in both Ruby and Java. I dislike how loosy goosy ruby is, but wow it's slow to write Java. Asking same or similar developers to do the sam-ish tasks in Java seems to take 50-100% as long. That said I trust the output of the java better as there's less "magic" occurring.
This is wild, my wife was hired as a supervisor at a sporting goods store ~15 years ago and faced almost the same style of discrimination. Meetings held with all the other super visors except her, Work that should have been hers given to other supervisors, boss was hard to meet with. What a strange pattern of behavior.
Can you give a log of using this product in a real session or such? I'm playing with it some but I'm finding it hard to find much use other than generating character and place names. An example of commands you entered would do a great job of demonstrating what it does.
These last few weeks was the first time I dealt with this process. App was rejected for reason 1, resubmitted, now there's a reason 2, which is they clearly didn't read the instructions how to continue, ok, resubmit with more instructions, and now rejected for reason 3. Resubmitted And finally passed. The reviewers were definitely not all applying the same rules/info. Released to prod and it had a major defect for 2/10 people. Dropped a minor update and it took ~48 hours for a review. REALLY frustrating.
There are so many loop holes. I mean then they just make a company that does stock trades for them and tell that company what to trade. Or their spouse does the trades instead of them.
I switched to firefox for personal use only. I still like chrome for work. It's a good way to try out firefox and it also separates my work and home life which is nice.
I had to figure out how to do something with videoJS and all I could find were answers for the old version of the lib, there were new answers but they were buried and hard to find.
