I would love to see a documentary covering that specific topic. How did we go from rightfully cautious to data wrecklessness?

You can apply for jobs without oversharing publicly. Never said don’t go on the Internet. I said don’t over share your personal information. There is a difference between applying for a job online and posting everything you have ever done under your real name with your face visible.

If you know the CEO then you have a fighting chance. But he needs to want to change.

As someone who has been in that situation, at some point you need to realize that poor leadership is the issue, and there is no way you can fix that from lower on the totem pole.
Also, reputation is everything. If your department has a bad reputation in leadership’s eyes, no matter what you do personally, you will also be associated with that reputation.
It’s best to leave these kinds of places for a fresh start.

Share as little as possible online. We knew this in the 90s and early aughts, but somehow over time we lost this healthy skepticism.

But like… Why?
- Comment on They eliminated cashiers and keep the profits. NY Democrats are fighting back. 1 week ago:
Yes price increases seem the most likely for pharmacies but not grocery stores. There is still sufficient competition in grocery stores, and enough of them without self checkout lanes. It would be hard to get away with a price increase when a cheaper alternative exists.
Pharmacies however… As much as I prefer small pharmacies, they often are tooo small for everything. Simply can’t find everything one might need. There’s basically just CVS and Walgreens, and they both are big into self checkout. Those two would collude for sure.

There is such a huge library of games made over the previous 30ish years. We really need new console games? Fuck it. Bring back vintage games. They were fun then and they are fun now

- Comment on 60% of PC gamers have no plans to build a new PC in the next two years — AI pricing crunch on RAM and other components paralyze enthusiast market 2 months ago:
Thats ezactly what they want to do, bur when that happens we must resist it. Play old game. Use legacy hardware. Participation is tantamount to acceptance.

The grocery store. A 99cent store. Local hardware store.
- Comment on It's unacceptable that people like Jeff Bezos exist. 2 months ago:
Thats great, but perfection is the enemy of good enough. I dont think one has to eliminate it entirely, there are some niche things that are only offeres through these marketplaces. But if there is an alternative place to acquire it (starting in your community), always favor it!
All it takes is a reduction of usage by everyone to send a message. Expecting people to go cold turkey is a bridge too far right now. Kudos though for being able to do that
- Comment on It's unacceptable that people like Jeff Bezos exist. 2 months ago:
It starts at home. Step one is to stop participating. Reduce or eliminate spend and/or engagment with the things that are enriching these people. Doesnt have to be perfect. Cancel your prime membership. Prioritize purchases at the businesses in your community. Only buy from Amazon when you have no other choice. Get rid of facebook. Etc etc.
The fact of the matter is that the way the world is structured right now, its impossible to be 100% perfect about this. You dont have to be perfect, just do the best you can.
If everyone did this (they wont), it would affect the stock price, and that is where billionares derive their power. Even a small downward trend is enough. But your life will change in a positive way if you do this as an added bonus. In some ways life has become tooo conveniant.

Im sorry but thats just not normal unless you are neurodivergent. We’re not robots. Honestly something is wrong if you dont even have mirror facial expressions.

Yeah but lets face it, a supermarket rotisserie chicken is generally cheaper and better than a chicken roasted at home. I dont understand the economic of it, but its true. I have up roasting chicken at home because its just never as succulent

- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 11 months ago:
You didnt do anything wrong if you were being yourself. I know it sounds corny but just being the best version of you is the best thing you can do, and if someone ghosts you like that they did you a favor. You dont want to be with someine like that; you just eant to be with the idea of the person you thought they were.
Still a bummer, but dont let a jerk define who you are.
- Comment on what are the grievances with the "male loneliness epidemic"? 11 months ago:
I think its pretty hypocritical for anyone who isnt a male to have an opinion on the validity of an experience they cant possibly have unless they transitioned.
Its like me having an opinion on have a period.
