Time to change your name from Patel to Smith

Most news sites nowadays are absolute cancer on mobile with 20% of screen being the actual content. Is pay of the reason why nobody actually reads articles and go straight to the comments

How does conversation context work though? Is that memory not a form of learning?

when it comes to China, there are a lot of state paid shills trying to barrage people with misinformation. Maybe it’s genuine, but I’m disinclined to believe anyone actually believes we should allow foreign entities to have parallel authorities infringing on nations sovereignity.

There is an end goal apparently. But in my 40+ hrs played, never been able to build a spaceship. So In practice, yea that’s about right.

It’s Celestial, so sayeth Steve

Ah got it.

How does that incentivizes workforce participation? You’re giving them money to not work, I think graduated taxes should just not have the NIT portion.

Civ2 manual was probably the biggest book I’d seen as kid apart from Bible

I mean the attention economy is essentially that considering an algorithm is the middle man

What’s wrong with slack?

Yup, unfortunately people don’t understand that policies only change the equilibrium, but sometimes take longer than electoral cycles to see effect.

I remember there was a tournament where a SK player was so sure/disrespectful he could beat a CN player at SC, that he only used his feet on the keyboard and was eating a banana at the same time. And he still ended up winning lmao

Nobody is saying what they are doing is illegal. And complaining is what people do to vent, you don’t have to read it.

It’s seems par the course for Amazon to just treat employees as disposable, and they’ve burned so many regions’ working populations’ proverbial bridges that I recall LTT highlighting an article saying Amazon can’t find people to employ because they’ve already cycled through everyone.

Anecdotally, I’m suddenly getting recruiters from AWS asking to interview me, and it all makes sense now. They want to replace the remote workers with new people who don’t complain. Fuck that, and fuck them if they think people should be apathetic to this strategy.

They captured it on video.

Freedom of speech and burning the flag is one thing: offensive sure but that’s the point of free speech. But you cross the line when you commit to incendiary CTAs like that, you are causing harm.

Funny thing is this was uttered by some woke-ass white lady Charlotte Kates who you know would be one of the first people targetted if Hamas was ever in power where she lived.

Yea, that’s what happens when you incite violence with a call to action: saying “Death to Canada”.

This is great news. OTOH, these deserters condemned 3 generations of their family back home.
