You can buy knowledge in all sorts of form, from books to consultation hours, but the most efficient when applying this knowledge to a task is still a human being. A consulting company might not even guarantee you that the same person will

Just think of Yosemite National Park firing their only(?) locksmith. It sounds like the most boring job but such a big park and many buildings. As soon as someone locks themselves into or out off something it becomes highly lucrative for a

That'd be a great spot if only there wasn't any hate speech in the US...

by TomK32 2y ago
The US are okay with releasing the J6ers and White Boys while in Europe we prefer to treat hate-speech, threats and inciting violence as the crime it is. Those three I quoted from the 60 minute clip DHH posted. Just in December eight people

Most parts of Switzerland, France, Spain (though only 2023-2025 to counter inflation), Norway, India, Lichtenstein, Japan, Luxembourg (only legal entities), Greece all currently have a wealth tax (according to de.wikipedia.org). It's a

Germany collected a wealth tax until 1995 when the highest court pointed out that the valuation of real estate property needs overhauling. The then CDU/CSU-FDP government decided to nothing about it and the wealth tax hence couldn&#x27

Finally some small pushback from Republicans against the Tech Support guy who runs with absurd numbers about 120yrs old without doing a sanity check first. Can Congress please get some oversight in place?

We can only hope for a swing back in the post-Musk/Trump era that gives federal workers protection like never seen before.

Oh yeah, would love to read the detailed work day of those federal agents guarding Musk, Trump or any other interesting target...

The list of wars that countries with nuclear weapons have lost against countries without nuclear weapons is pretty much all the wars those countries have list since 1945. It's a very long list.

We only see what it's directly returning to customers, not the damage it prevents to happen in the first place by a) forcing companies to change their behaviour and b) possibly influencing legislation and policy making.

Reading in various sources, many of those workers did get great performance reviews before the purges that fired them with a one-liner citing their lack of performance. Tell me how any employer doing this is acting with respect?

DEI is not just a PR thing, it forces employers to look at places for candidates they haven't looked before. Not surprising that white women are those who benefit the most from DEI. Even one JD Vance, as a military veteran, profited fr

It'd be fantastic if surveys would allow those surveyed to do a minute or two of research before answering or correcting their answer.

You still believe in the trickle-down myth? If you are against equality, that's okay, but at least admit it and allow those who weren't fortunate enough to have wealthy parents (like Musk and Trump) to live a life without worries

by TomK32 2y ago
We don't even know what DOGE is and whether Musk is running it. LeagleEagle hasn't a clue[1], the courts are slow at finding out and the Republicans in Congress are useless at what Congress is supposed to do. Musk is overstepping

Hitting fast & hard is not the legal way to do it. Congress has allocated the money and the President can't just stop spending it. You also ignore the human aspect, firing people in the most disrespectful way, with just single sent
