Reminds me of the apartment complexes from Cells at Work

In a nearby harbor they were crying out for dock workers. You have to be at location, but there was no transit option. The nearby city was too expensive for housing for the salary they got so the commute by car from somewhere affordable was long and not worth the pay. Commuting isn’t free.

“We expected that they fly around each other and they never have physical contact,” Hristov said. “We have found, shocking to us, that bats crash into each other quite often. It’s a messy situation, but generally it’s very safe and it works very well.”

but it sure as shit rhymes.
because it always comes down to human nature and that hasn’t changed. Greed, idiot leaders, apathy, devotion, revenge, … Stories about that are as old as writing.

Remove pedestrians, biking and transit because they take up car space. Now everyone drives and you’re 45 minutes stuck in traffic.

Everytime people start talking about age extension, I’m reminded of the old geezers we have now staying in power for another century and how bad that would be for us.

An allegory to people being forced to work way past retirement age because of the economic system going bonkers and its consequences.

Only when consuming caffeine too much or too late, or eating peanuts or potato chips. Getting old sucks.

Great question, Mr. Koyun.
First, you start with hiring great people to do the task you want. Do you need more information about hiring practices and selection criteria?
- Comment on Haha yes society is great 1 week ago:
Every society values status and wealth. This time we’ve taken that to the extreme, to the exclusion of everything else. It’s going to be one of the failed experiments in history.
Ancient Greece even had those episodes where the rich managed to get farmers deep in debt. A bunch of them just left. Another bunch became serfs. The end result was productivity tanking and food security becoming problematic. Cue debt relief, changing laws, … The rich will always fuck it up for everybody and themselves given enough time, sometimes they learn, and they do it all again a century later.
- Comment on Haha yes society is great 1 week ago:
The rich have bought out trailer parks. And the factories where they make trailers. So even going that route is being exploited.

First you play really loud music. Then when the neighbor comes over to complain you say they were yelling aggressively (to be heard over the loud music) and you had to defend yourself.

They were called broadcasts back then. And the equipment you needed was a bit more expensive and bulkier.

The pockets might be endless, but if you keep pulling stuff out without something real going in you end up pulling out handfuls of lint and nothing else.

Donations through a non profit, where the CEO and/or some of their family are on the board and paid a big salary from those donations, so only a fraction makes it to the stated goal.

Usually they forward it to someone to explain, forward the reply to another underling to execute and copy/paste that one’s estimate or status update in the original mail’s relpy.
- Comment on Get. Out 4 weeks ago:
make some knowledge workers moderately more productive but that excess will be absorbed
That seems to result in a higher burn out rate. The worker had to do more soul crushing check and verify work instead of doing knowledge work.
