Yea but TikTok has all the extra bullshit of spying on you and sending that data back to China. It’s bad enough our own government spies on us, I don’t need an wide open channel to a second.

EV’s are only a solution as far as renewable energy can keep up with electricity demands. And that doesn’t appear to be the case right now. Coupled with the mining of minerals, violent venting of batteries, and non-recyclable/non dis

I totally see the depopulation argument. But I also see the overpopulation argument, at least as it relates to our current standards of living/lifestyles, farming practices, and energy scarcity. We need innovation to keep pace with po

If you have felt like you were on the verge of being fired for a full decade, I think that might be a sign that you are actually indispensable despite how they feel about you. And because of that, they have piled the work onto your plate.

Interesting. I’ve only ever used Reddit for like diy, maker type subreddits and those are pretty hard to fake. Between Reddit and twitter, it sounds like we are being manipulated to the moon and back.

This is how an auto insurance company I used to work for wrote policies. They didn’t underwrite them until there was a claim and then they would rescind the policy and deny the claim when they found a “material misrepresentation”. They cal

Analyzing historical trends is astrology? And traditional valuation methods have held up so well? It’s a casino, put your pinky down.

Has the author not see. The collective shrug from society when it comes to security? Why are they surprised? People still flock to Facebook and google in droves. And now Tik tok. Clearly people do not give any f’s about privacy and secu

They aren’t just going to give you a free day off. There would be a commensurate decrease in your pay. I don’t find the 5 days/week to be “irrational”, “irrational” to whom? It’s completely rational from an employers perspective tha

Do not tell your bosses what they want to hear unless it is true or unless you desperately need the job until you find a new one. If you lie and tell them things are great when they aren’t, things will continue to suck. You are enabling

Is it actually more convenient if it’s not true? Because if things actually suck, but you lie and say things are great, aren’t you just consenting to the status quo and even giving permission for things to suck more in the future? I’m the

Surveys at work are sketchy. I worked at a Fortune 500 company that did Gallup surveys. They were anonymous and “optional”. But if we didn’t fill out the surveys, it counted against our direct managers performance reviews. As did negati

Wouldn’t the underlying data that the camera parsed to determine what to record still be recorded or be otherwise retrievable somewhere? Meaning everything is still recorded in some way?

“ - I cannot find anything decent, so I give up and turn off the TV” This is me about 50% of the time. I always hear that there is just so much content. But I would never watch most of it. I’d rather watch YouTube wood working videos all

There is no prize that is universal outside of cash which can’t be done easily for tax reasons and a large percentage of people do drink. You could say the same about sports related prizes(some people don’t like sports), food(different tast

You realize that we are already running trillions of dollars in deficit for the programs we already have in place? The first step, should be to lower the deficit and actually fund the programs we have in place. We cannot just keep printing

Big mushroom fan. But isn’t all the sodium and crap they add to it to make it taste like bacon, mostly what makes bacon unhealthy to begin with? The saturated fat aspect is debatable or at least not completely settled. I don’t eat bacon m
