  I’m pretty sure it’s genetics.

  With respect to the other stuff, women are coached from a very early age to be attractive and aging is looked down on. There are industries dedicated to making (mostly) women more attractive. There are studies showing attractive women are more successful in the workplace. But my experience is that working is not as stressful as full-time homemaking/parenting - so I think you are a bit off track there.

  This made me absurdly happy.

  Descartes’ evil demon strikes again. 😉

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is telling an employee how he has to speak micromanaging? Is it toxic?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I train people on how to speak (to executives, during a presentation, with clients) all the time. In my line of work, a client can end a contract if they don’t like engaging with my team - so it is pretty relevant to the job.

  Btw, this look would be after I put time into my makeup and hair.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you consider me a “dry texter”?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A conversation should go back and forth with questions and comments. Your text example was one person doing their part, but you did not do yours. Calling it “dry” was pretty kind of them. This is unfriendly bordering on rude.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I find companies that want to outsource their jobs?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. For example there are many companies in India serving clients in the US. So you would need to know how you differentiate yourself from them. We work with a company who does graphic design, and their big value prop is their ability to snap to US business practices. So, they are more expensive that some, but they create an easy way to work with them. They also work 12 hours difference, which is handy. In contrast, I have worked with people in Columbia, who are roughly in the same time zone. Their big value is price.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I find companies that want to outsource their jobs?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  A few questions: where are you and where do you want your clients to be? What services do you offer, and how do they differ from competing outsourcing companies?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So there is this feature where you can focus the AI on a specific file when generating responses. If that file contains only your own digital art, is the AI art produced yours? Not saying that’s what you found, but maybe there is some nuance to AI art creation.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feelin free⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, we will need some different, better minds on it to see success. I’d embrace it if I thought someone had any vague idea of how to execute it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feelin free⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe… Is saving considered hoarding? Is leaving a small inheritance to your kids considered hoarding?

  Even without the semantic confusion or disagreement, it doesn’t change the fundamental dynamic identified in the post.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feelin free⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Taxing people appropriately is obviously the right way to go. But it actually doesn’t change the dynamic identified in the meme substantially. Rich people still hoard resources (albeit less after taxes). And basic needs are only met if enough people keep working to pay taxes or enrich their employees who pay taxes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feelin free⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean, that experiment has been run and it is wildly difficult to manage (humans are quite wily!).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feelin free⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Also, at what point do you tip into you-dont-get-choose-your-job land? Is it still considered freedom if you are required to have a job to serve basic needs of the larger community? For example, we need more doctors even without universal healthcare in the US. If we covered the basic needs of everyone, wouldn’t we have to require some people to become doctors, who are not on that trajectory today?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Feelin free⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I do wonder what the alternative is… Would that be growing/hunting your own food and making your own clothes and building your own shelter? I don’t know about anyone else, but I would not live long in that scenario.

  Try this:

  1. Open Settings: Click on the Start button located at the bottom-left corner of your screen and select Settings (the gear icon) from the pop-up menu.
  2. Access Apps: In the Settings menu, click on Apps.
  3. Find Office: Scroll down through the list of installed applications to find your Microsoft Office product. Once found, click on it, then select Modify.
  4. Repair Options:
     • Click-to-Run Installation:
       • In the window that appears, select Online Repair to ensure everything is fixed.
       • You can also choose Quick Repair for a faster option that detects and replaces corrupted files.

  I assume it gave you this answer:

  Open Control Panel: Press Windows + R, type Control Panel, and press Enter. Set Default Programs: In the Control Panel, go to Programs > Default Programs > Set Default Programs. Select Outlook: Find and select Microsoft Outlook from the list of programs. Click Set this program as default. Verify in Excel: Open Excel and try to send an email (e.g., File > Share > Email > Send as Attachment) to ensure Outlook is now the default email program.

  Have you tried online repair? If those don’t work, sometimes it’s just easiest to reinstall Office.

  I don’t know the answer, but I recommend asked ng Copilot (you can access through Bing). It how I get all my Dax formulas.

  Courtney, Love interrupting Madonna during the 1995 MTV awards. She just showed up and took over the interview. And it was beautiful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨if you've had or have anger issues, how did you become a better human?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Ok, so this is a bit weird, but… I am set off by businesses or management that make patently terrible decisions - especially if I work there. I can barely hold it together in a meeting without shouting like a lunatic. I bottled it up until I started to lose my hair (not recommended). I eventually left to start my own business, where other people can rail about my poor decisions. Not everyone can/should start their own business, but you can look for another job that is a better fit for you. Remember when you interview, you are looking for cultural fit as much as they are looking for an employee.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is it wrong to not have a disabled child solely to avoid forcing the child to suffer their whole life?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think so. I have 2 disabled kiddos and they aren’t suffering, but they don’t have it as easy as their peers - which can be heartbreaking to watch.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨rarted⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Woops didn’t realize he said that. He does have autism and that is likely why he was labeled as a kid (per the meme).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨rarted⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  He has autism and this meme references that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨rarted⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  There are so many things you can and should make fun of him for (that he has control over). But autism isn’t one of them.
