If you look into it the primary intent of the ordinance is to ensure hotel workers can get help fast if they are assaulted in the course of their job, and the secondary intent is to prevent them from being overworked without consent. Which

A bit of online research suggests that hotel staff that were sexually harassed/assaulted at work and subsequently not taken seriously by their management, or not allowed to file a police report on 'company time', were primary

What's stupid about the law? Do you perhaps have experience in hospitality in the LA area and/or can help illuminate the situation for us, so as to try to persuade us of your opinion? Here's a summary of the ordinance for any

Not a tax. This article outlines the impact of the ordinance: https://www.fisherphillips.com/news-insights/8-things-los-an... In short: it's worker protections. Is there a "food safety fee" for following

The US has largely solved the air quality problem, but the situation of water rights in the west feels to me like it carries the same tones of OP story.

My thesis is, pick (nearly) any border in the world and you will find something like this happening inside of it, and that's the global condition that doesn't bode well. If we can't figure things out within borders, how are w

However, the continuing situation of one group choosing to cause mass suffering for others out of an economic choice and no one can or will do anything about it feels a lot like one example of a global condition that doesn't bode well

Notably, Larry (the lawnmower?) and Elon appear to be on good terms and aligned on the twitter thing, judging by this text exchange where Larry offers $1B to help secure the Twitter deal and upgrades to $2B with no compunction after a gentl

Those are links to their 'guides' on the best iPhone and the best Apple Watch for 2022, respectively. I'll save you the trouble--they rank the most expensive models the best. Surprising!

Wow. Even being cynical, they could have just announced an upgrade cylinder at a huge markup and that would have been fine probably. What a bungled response.

No - this was not picked, it was raked . Watch the video. The difference is that raking the pins takes almost no skill. LPL also demonstrates an easy bump attack which also takes almost no skill. Bump/rake resistance is different than

Anyone know if the cylinder in this lock can be upgraded? It's a nice piece of hardware aside from this vulnerability.

Awesome story. Really shows the value of keeping a good maintenance manager for a long time at older apt buildings. (Or for any old, large, and complicated physical system, really) Cheap out on this labor and you will pay for it many times

The article features a few that are inside stations that are presumably heated. They do still look cool, but in theory they could be lame.

First I've heard that one - trying to take it at face value, is the thesis that truth, equity, justice, etc should (must?) be discarded or suppressed if there is money to be made in the short term?

Anecdotally, my experience growing up in the rural south of the USA (not MS) is that the police would often let things slide for a member of the community that they knew. I.e. rather than a formal DUI, the individual would get a ride home a
