!!!
Ooo yes thank you. Because no corporations have ever (Enron) done anything wrong, ever.
Sorry. So ensuring that Unions are accountable to their members

I’m 100% pro union…
Are there any (lol) good faith reasons to not vote yes?
No really. I can’t think of any; and I was looking to ? Steel man the argument…
I’m assuming that all the ones that I’ve seen from the business side are not in good faith — well that and they are laughable…

It’s amazing how these “Great American Businessmen “ shit on so many others.
Almost like it is a feature; rather than a bug
- Comment on Why is currency so essential? 1 week ago:
Because that philosophy has won over the most people.
I didn’t say it was the best. You may or may not believe that living in a yurt foraging mushrooms might be the best life; but “western “ civilization has deemed capitalism to be the way.
Under capitalism people need money to use for the things they want that they cannot make themselves.
A wise man once said “Money can’t buy me Love” —but it certainly improves your bargaining position

That’s the only real question, imho everything else is poor management

Yep. I’ve got a different insurance, but yeah I have a very expensive med , where I can only use their pharmacy-by-mail. So I have to deal with this same shit.

After getting over the urge to kill my self…
Longer then one would expect
Most of us don’t have or are only kinda aware of real survival skills. - farming, hunting, fishing — okay there’s your food
Next thing is shelter and clothing- are the people just gone? Or is shit really messed up?
- you can get good clothes and if housing is still standing you’ll be fine for a long time.
Holding out hope that there are any other survivors would help you go on, I believe as you’d want to find them.
So yes there are no numbers, but if you’re in a good place mentally. You can survive a long time

- Comment on Current account recovery best practices? 3 months ago:
Well that’s kinda the point. Missing your factors is supposed to make it harder.
So — account recovery code written out, that doesn’t say it is for your account?
E.g. Apple allows it as a backup to your Apple ID should you get locked out.
Depends on the syy

This is something I want to discuss at work.
I think I’d feel better about only having the minimum number of certs.

- Comment on What is a stock trading bot called, and is there a way I can make/get my own? 6 months ago:
Anyone selling a “System “ is making money from selling the system, rather that using it.
Free bot that trades stocks? Good luck
- Comment on We have had guns for 200 years but mass shootings only became common in the last 30. So what changed? 6 months ago:
There are some really good answers here.
I’ll add some additional things.
The repeal of the fairness doctrine, tv news no longer needs to be actually fair.
Back until the mid 80s there were really only 3-4 channels… everyone relied on the same news and we HAD to agree on facts. But there are almost no common facts today. There are 10000 sources and no matter where you are it can look like you’re correct, and very much in the center, and you can’t understand why those crazy “others” can’t see the truth.

That is not discussed
Also yes I was wondering about a Pi-hole or firewall
But I’m guessing that disconnecting the antenna (breaking the connection) the car would freak out after some time and demand to upload the data.
This report is deeply troubling (going for the understatement of the year award)
I’m hoping that someone reputable will come up with a solution

- Comment on If bullshit jobs are *really* bullshit, how do businesses justify the expense? 8 months ago:
I’ll also add that managers don’t think like normal people…
IT makes your computers and networks and websites run. But the manager asks how much money does IT bring in? They are a cost and generate no profit.
But Sales. Well that’s all profit. So we should give them all the money.
Even if we closed sales most people who want our stuff will still buy it from us, but nothing will get done without IT…
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- Comment on So many expensive homes 8 months ago:
I’ll add a “Yes and…”
Don’t underestimate people’s willingness to go into debt, for a bigger house because it will “look good”
Gotta keep up on the pretense of being successful.
- Comment on The Elite's War on Remote Work Has Nothing to Do with Productivity 8 months ago:
As others in the thread are pointing out; follow the money — that’s always a good starting point.
So yes real estate
Also the old management ideas of if I can’t see you I can’t track what you are doing… I know how damn lucky I am that my boss mostly trusts that those 40 emails are indicating that stuff is happening even if he can’t see me
And just as importantly the stock price. If employee pay rose to match productivity we’d be golden. Alas your pay doesn’t, most likely, as so company’s profits rise making the stock market happy. Boosting the stock prices
The remote working issue isn’t one thing alone, but yes real estate is a good starting point
