Agreed, but whether you're happy with it or not, one of them WILL be president come next year. There are a lot of other issues in the ballot that impact people's lives as well. Being a single issue voter is how systems like this ratchet up in the first place.

Because Trump would be better for the Palestinian people? Don't get me wrong, you're not off the mark on biden in the least, but until the Republicans can put up something other than buffoonery, make your choice in the primary then hold your nose in the general for the lesser of two evils. Welcome to first past the post

If a company is firing you, fuck their "private company details." You should have zero loyalty or obligation to an entity that's potentially going to make you go hungry/homeless. Criminal disclosures will be covered by law already, so all you're doing is slurping up the boot juice and perpetuating the culture of silence that allows companies and capital owners to pit workers against one another

Completely off topic to the thread, but you just reminded me of a time I snuck onto a movie set and got to actually do that. I posed as a driver for the car company and got to start/drive one of those bad boys with the hand crank. Inside was all switches too which was wild. The most uncomfortable ride of my life.

The people responsible are the politicians who funded this shit. They're not going to put themselves behind bars

A report by a former IMF official that completely ignores the indisputable fact that China is the only manufacturing and producer superpower in the world (not counting military production, where the USA is the undisputed leader), and instead compares the two economies on a financial services standard which favors the USA to begin with bc they're solely a financial/services driven economy at this point.

Look, I'm not a fan of a lot of what happens in China, but this is a shit comparison and projection.

Yes and no. I've been in quite a few situations where an overrun/understaffed location will funnel half a dozen or so cars to the parking lot after a certain amount of time before the food is ready.

Most certainly will be ways to exploit it to make the numbers look good without improving quality of service (see fast food drive-thru workers asking customers to "pull up front" in order to stop the timer and artificially move the line while the customer continues to wait for food)

What's the advantage over sftp, scp, or similar lower level protocols?

Stupid title. There is no "last time." So long as fascist exist there will be those who rise up to oppose them, no matter how entrenched their power and influence may seem to be.

I say this with all due respect, but XML can gargle nuts.

Naw, basically saying that the employment landscape has changed significantly since 2020 and the management class reports being overwhelmed and lacking tools/knowledge/experience to properly manage and engage employees in the new landscape, while the employees report more passive disengagement and want a company to actually invest in them as a person and treat them as a human instead of treating them like naked capital investment.

Edit: I forgot, there was that one brazenly monocle'd paragraph advocating for harder boot licking for workers, but it is cnbc so what do you expect
