Having worked at Google there wasn't any anti-unuon propaganda or anything: it was just genuinely the best work environment I'd ever experienced... Right up until they laid me off.
So while I was there the thought of joining a union would have been "meh - what can they realistically get me?" and after the layoff was "oh yeah right they could've gotten me protection"
Doesn't blind require you to validate via corporate email yearly or something?
Edit: cause some jackass is implying I'm a bot - I should have joined a union and a union would've protected me from the mass layoff in '23 but that doesn't change that while there I never thought about needing a union because it was such a nice place otherwise.
As someone who previously worked at Google - they didn't have any antiunion propaganda.
They just, like, paid well, had top tier benefits, great perks, and had a good work life balance.
The battery life is definitely worse because of it but it doesn't bother me much
Note: the latest pixel fold is about the same size and weight as the pixel 9 pro.
It's actually kinda incredible that it is that light and thin while folding.
Oh yeah it's not like it stopped him in reality but it burned his most popular acct

What's crazy is the original poster was something of a superuser on reddit. First to 1 million karma iirc
And he lost basically all popularity after that comment.
In retrospect: it was pedantic but so mundane. He was just being a prototypical redditor
Here's the thing. You said a "jackdaw is a crow."
Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that.
As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing.
If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens.
So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too.
Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't.
It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?

What I find particularly interesting is that it's an ad they're serving directly from their own infrastructure - ublock isn't blocking it as an ad.
That's pretty normal for financial charts like this though.

To be fair to my naive past self: it was the first mass layoff at Google, ever.
Based on my friends still there: the vibes are decidedly less trusting all around.
