If you mean the parking lot, keep in mind that's a contested area that employers have fought very hard to prevent workers from using to organize. If you mean just outside of the parking lot, you STILL have issues. Amazon for instance,

But what you're suggesting is that they'd have to do a house visit in order to tell coworkers about this slack workspace -- that anything using company resources, including company grounds, should be a violation of the rights of t

You suggest having a line, but as a top-level comment alludes to, there historically has been one and it's right where the author of this article drew it. Companies have the right in most circumstances to say "no hanging up non-wo

For folks who don't know, one thing right out of the union-buster handbook is that you first remove the ability of workers to organize themselves at work -- and then when they have to resort to visiting their co-workers at their homes

People are more concerned about COVID when flying than they are buying beer, possibly. Certainly a beer commercial can have a different tone than what you find at airports in these times. I'm not sure they should lean into it. That sai

"LOL" goes back to the 80s. I'm not sure you can call it somebody trying to be hip. Almost certainly it's just a term they use like millions of others.

I think this is a low-quality article. At the same time, different styles of writing, including those that some may see as "unprofessional" because it mimics how people actually write to one another, can actually at times be MORE

Collective bargaining is not at all incompatible with a "free market." It's just a smarter way to negotiate (more power collectively) and the end result is a contract between a company and a group of workers. It's not li

"Engage" is not euphemistic. I'm surprised you're unfamiliar with the word. It means receiving interest or attention.

There’s conflicting research on the topic. People should engage with ideas seriously, yes.

I wish articles like this would more seriously engage with the possible value of First Mover Advantage in certain circumstances and industries. You can do this while recognizing that implementation is key.

Maybe there's some threshold that computers cannot cross. But the constant improvements show no sign of stopping soon. I wouldn't bet against it, given a long enough time period.

Up to a dozen languages at once for us. Zoom has some capabilities along these lines that we've used for smaller events with just English/Spanish. https://support.zoom.us/hc/en-us/articles/3600349197

Looks great! Amazing work. Am I right for thinking that this might not be the best tool for me if my online events aren't public but instead are internal -- where not just anybody can register, just certain pre-registered folks who are

I use them with mass SMS, where we do have a character limit in our messaging tool. We can go above it, but then we get charged for multiple messages. Custom domain, of course, or the carriers wouldn't like it.

The advice in the article -- find something you're both good at and also love, and recognize they aren't necessarily the same things -- is pretty much exactly the normal advice that people give. I think the implication of "fo

It seems like everybody is. Obama admin, Trump admin were both pro-nuclear, too. Maybe the issue is that nobody wants it near them ?

I think we probably place too much hope in improving technology, in general. It's a tremendous breakthrough, I'd say. But rather than focus on the tech, I'd rather see a rethinking of our governmental approach to issues conce

Apple should consider other verticals for video, rather than the tv shows on Apple TV Plus. For example, home improvement projects. Gardening. Rather than trying to reinvent netflix they should expand on what's been so great about Fitn

I didn't fault Amazon for being snarky. I noted that when you snark and get the facts wrong, that it'll get more attention.

That it's so widespread in the industry should make this a BIGGER problem deserving of MORE attention. It shouldn't be used to dismiss this as a non-issue. I don't know why you're focused on whether Amazon should be give

They are not going to make their official policy that everybody should just shit in the trucks because they improved the user experience.

My dad has been a letter carrier for over 40 years. I'm very aware that drivers very openly talk to one another about peeing in the back of their trucks into bottles. Like with Amazon, the only policy is that you'll get a good tal

The US prison system is about indifference and more like factory farming than inflicting punishment -- the negative effects are mostly a byproduct of high volume and costs. I got really into this issue maybe two years ago, and it's bee

This isn't how most file. Also, the way it works is that you still have the option of doing it yourself. But by default, done for you.
