You should not be downvoted for telling the truth about your experiences! I have witnessed the same things. Kids being held back a grade so they can excel in sports! It is so ridiculously self-serving and narcissistic that it is crazy to

I can understand why. When we first moved to our upper midwest state, the district we bought a house in was ranked like #2 in the state overall and has fallen considerably. I have watched with my own two eyes the decline in the past 20 ye

Doesn't every cell phone have a highly volatile, made in China battery in it as well? What if they started banning smartphones on flights! Oh the humanity!

If I going to bank with someone, I want it to be more aggressive. Hard Bank is what I'm talking about--a bank with cojones.

I'm pretty sure the antichrist is that sports betting guy, Dave Portnoy? The good news is that he's low key, it's kind of a more casual antichrist this time around getting everyone addicted to gambling.

Not a fan of Palantir or Level3 (L3?) Systems myself--talk about companies ushering in a police state!

I love that the example is with LinkedIn, because I always want to turn off most of their useless crap! What we really need is a back-to-basics form of LinkedIn.

I'm fine with doctors making decent money, I'm not fine with MBA assholes making bank off of the bezzle. That's a huge difference--doctors add something to process, they are not vampires.

It's not just about "removing profit" it's about removing the MBA pyschopaths who flock to these "opportunities."

Having worked at UNH and also having them and later UMR (owned by UNH) and now being insured by a non-public company, I can tell you the difference is huge. UNH is for profit through and through, quarterly reports are all that matter, and

Hetnzer, lol. Reminds me of all those weird Chinese brands for nvme and sdd hard drive enclosures on Amazon--Amaloo, Ugreen, Fideco, Orico, and on and on. All trash.

But the basic chips like the ones that go into cars are the ones that were the most scarce--the low margin stuff was not being made. You're saying it's because of Nvidia? I'm not totally tracking here. The game console thin

This is precisely what soured me on crypto. It's a ridiculous waste, a circle jerk.

Not if the paying customers aren't sustainable. Many of us have seen this before--2001.

I just find it so odd that the oh so environmentally conscious tech sector is now building out some of the most resource intensive facilities on the planet. It's like environmentalism was just a con.

It was more like assimilating everything it encountered in minute detail, but the living beings were no longer "living" as such once assimilated. It was creepy.

I once watched one of those videos that was a speeded up example of light leaving the sun and showing the time it takes to get to the various planets. It was boring as hell after just a couple of minutes and that's with light way spee

I think doing away with cash is a terrible idea. That said, I'm using it less and less since 2020. Inflation is the real problem--we need a stable currency and make the small denominations valuable again. All this tracking and surve

Announce a hybrid anything and it's off to the races all over again.

I'll keep saying this until someone at Tesla sees it: They could clean up if they designed a hybrid Cybertruck II that was a bit more conventional looking. Build something cutting edge but actually useful, keep some of the edginess

My college girlfriend had an HP RPN calculator of some kind (42s?) that was non-graphing. She loved the calculator and never wanted the bulkier 48sx graphing one her Dad bought her, which is how I ended up with it. I kept it after the bre

I had 250 shares I bought on a tip and sold for a decent profit then NVDA moon-shotted later that year. That's the story of my stock buying life right there.

But they didn't think the Nvidia stake would make more $ otherwise they would still retain a percentage, right?

That isn't what happened at all. The SNAP funds have to be appropriated by Congress. Congress has not appropriated the funds. Some groups sued and some judge was asking the Executive Branch to break the law using some emergency fund

Immigrants are one thing, but opening the floodgates to 20 million non-citizens by abusing an asylum law meant to grant relief to tens or hundreds was a huge problem.

The MBA pyschopaths have always had it in for the far more intelligent and ethics driven CS types. It's always been an envy situation where people lacking talent are envious of those with real talents and real brain power. CS people

There has to be a way to limit the flood--someone has to pay a fee someplace.

I don't see the point of applying for "hundreds of jobs." I think use the time to network with real people and forget about Indeed or whatever because those jobs are mostly fake anyways.

It a bit too long to get the main points across. Also, a wall of text is becoming something people ignore, no matter how important it is. Make a video, bring these ideas to life.
