The most depressing thing about such behavior from MegaCorp is that they are too lazy to even pretend to care. We meet lots of people in life who would appear sincere, talk sweetly etc, but it is all just a show, just acting. Now it is a

Where do these sites source the photos from? This is a nice idea. Only issue are the ads - the ad on the bottom right is bleeding over the photo, there are two video ads playing simultaneously... Makes it annoying to play

I work as a contractor and am managing a small team. I easily do the work at least two people in my team, in addition to managing ("babysitting") the team. While my pay is not 5 times their pay, it is most certainly higher than th

I wonder how much of this would happen in a place like Japan or Korea. I haven't been to those countries, but heard that they have higher standards of cleanliness and people generally don't litter etc

Not disagreeing with you, but there are 8 billion people (at least) on this planet, we all need something to do, no? There is probably only a fraction of work that is actually meaningful (growing food, healing others...) and a big chunk is

Not disagreeing with you, but education and intelligence without qualities like empathy, common sense etc is useless. There are lots and lots of people with advanced degrees who lack basic common sense, basic decency, empathy for fellow hum

There was a news article few months ago, about waiting times for healthcare (in the UK, if I remember correctly). One govt official commented something like older people having to wait longer to see physicians is "not a priority".

The grass isn’t always greener Like most things in life, I suppose it is all relative? Diabetes sucks, but it sure sucks less than cancer. Of course it would be lovely if there is zero corruption, zero pollution, zero nepotism etc. Which

The most annoying thing is society's (especially American society) admiration for Billionaires and the belief that their IQ is in the four digits or some crap like that. More than intelligence, it takes ruthlessness, narcissism and q

You gotta be willing to be an arsehole to some level at least, to reach upper levels of management. It is no surprise that most leaders in big companies are some levels of psychos. I don’t think someone like Mr.Rogers can run SAP, no matter

Eh? “At some point”? You must’ve been sleeping. This has nothing to do with efficiency or improving the budget. Bill Clinton laid off thousands of employees, but he did it in an orderly fashion, got congressional approval etc. This is the

Thank you. Does this still hold good if steamdb was making money (ads, for example)? Also, I am wary of using big companies like OpenAI as precedent. Big companies can do whatever they want and get away with a lot of stuff that individuals

I can’t say if you’re serious or just trolling. It is beyond stupid to compare government institutions with private sector. Let’s say (just for discussion purposes) that some government agency (USAID, for example) is wasting 100% of their b
