We can always take the phone away. As a parent of a teenager, sometimes I have to make hard choices. This is one of them. Kids don't need cellphones. We want them to have one often because of our own insecurities.

> Employees have always been responsible for managing their own career growth and always will be. How can it be otherwise? On the contrary, from the 40s to the 70s (possibly well into the 80s) the corporation was heavily invested in your

This is the current administration's argument, isn't it? Except whenever something gets cut, scores of people are unhappy.

Concur, employee training and retention are at an all-time low. There are no positions available for junior employees, minimal onboarding and mentoring of new employees. Organizations have stopped planning people's careers. Used to be

I don't think this applies. According to the stories here, folks were choosing out of Fed jobs even when gold-plated pensions were the norm.

It's interesting reading conversations in this thread. Everyone wants government to hire competent individuals. Yet, when it comes to a personal choice, the very same individuals decline the lower compensation. Everyone then wants gove

Trump is using fuzzing to find weaknesses in global trade. He's basically a security researcher at this point.

Depends on what serious means here. In financial/wire fraud, the police often need support from the victim to collect sufficient evidence. If the victim does not cooperate, the case could be dropped due to lack of evidence. Murder is t

In this case, we would require it to be a separate company altogether. Could there still be collusion? Sure, but it would introduce a misalignment of profit motives, which would introduce competition between the platform and the advertising

Solution is straightforward: Separate the advertising service from the platform, so that the same corporate entity cannot run both.

Please stop with the hyperbole. It's unproductive. Switching everyone to BEVs would require a massive investment in infrastructure. Given the speeds at which EVs charge, at least every other parking spot at the stop would need a charge

I believe that's Trump's plan. According to the Triffin Dilemma, the source of US budgetary deficits are due to the USD being the world's reserve currency. Once that's not the case, trade should rebalance to a healthy su

Is this anything more than just supply and demand? As a society, we have shunned physical labour as an effective means to earn a living. In the education system, we insist that everyone graduate from high school, regardless of the attained

Part of it is politics. Totally correct about everything in common, and yet in the multicultural fabric we call society, politics could be vastly different: Neighbour 1 cares about Trump, neighbour 2 about Ukraine, neighbour 3 is focused on

Executive orders are the easiest things to reverse. What's the problem with waiting? Are the Democrats so intolerant of democracy? The other guy won. Majority of the country voted for him. You'll have to wait until he screws up, t

All I'm trying to point out is that your cushy middle-class existence has sheltered you from the deep-rooted inequality that has persisted in America since the turn of last century, perhaps since creation. Trump historically has been s

The truth is there always was a two-tier legal system, just as there always was a two-tier healthcare system and a two-tier education system. The current administration is simply exposing the truth and removing the hypocrisy. In a way this

Evidence suggests it's the exact opposite. The only thing crypto has really been good for is a store of value. Sure, it's a volatile commodity, but over any 5 year average window, Bitcoin definitely beats inflation. That makes it
