Absolutely, and I love being in other countries food cultures, where the emphasis isn't on non-perishability and onerous expensive regulations around how food can be cooked and sold. My comment is intended to be US-centric, because the

Your idea of effort, being someone who has worked as a cook and as a ready to eat meal food prepper, may have you be mistaken as to the ease relative to some populations cooking ability. Most people I know never get past sheet pan roasting

If nobody should be forced to hire someone, then maybe they should be forced to give metrics on how many people are hired vs job reqs posted, and that information should be given to the candidates. Good luck hiring people if you don't

My least favorite thing about this day and age is that we have to justify things primarily by whether it effects shareholders or not, not whether its causing a bunch of harm to people looking for work.

It should be illegal. Given how many regulations there are around hiring, there should also be some around job postings. Making people waste a bunch of time updating their resume and writing cover letters for a company thats not actually lo

Oops, I had mixed up Shapiro with Gretchen Whitmer (another of these "rising stars"). Shapiro just does white Obama.

Ghost mental health networks are a thing. If you need a specialist therapist you will probably not even be able to get a single available provider who takes insurance. The best you can do, if you don't have a bunch of cash on hand or a

Some trauma can make for focus and push. Most everyone has some amount of trauma just for existing. Higher ACE scores correlate with much lower life expectancy and worse outcomes, far higher rates of suicide, mental illness, substance abuse

Hey friend - check out dissociation and that realm. It’s one of the things that often comes out of trauma, and allows us the superpower to be who we need to be to survive and even thrive, but can carry big deficits in self image and ability

You can be assured that the person who actually got the job worked on a Mac in Angular using Webstorm and that nobody wants to entertain ideas that their methods of interviewing are in any way tipping the scales.

Its a series of strawmen that make up the blog I'm replying to - no counterforce was given to the benefits of "founder mode" so I'm making those arguments.

Crush your faking employees is the advice of the day. Founders are superheroes who can do no wrong and miss no context! Founders favoritism leading to being in an in-crowd never attracts faking employees, and the founders can famously alway

So the problem is that people aren't being paid slave wages? Estimates are that labor is 35-40% of the cost, while materials are 50% of the cost. That seems a little high but not unreasonable > That isn't really happening becau

The world also likes to chew up people they once lionized who end up being deeply flawed. He had business making technology, but he has no business being in politics. He is literally the richest person on the planet, and the way that works

Dr. Amen can sometimes drive folks towards effective treatments, but many of his diagnostic methods are full on quackery. I'm glad he was able to give you some guidance that worked for you, but he has created a lot of harm and a lot of

It’s a lot of things, and it takes a while. EDMR, modified IFS, somatic work, massive amounts of internal reflection and relational work have all contributed - it’s not something I could just buy. I remember 80% of my childhood whereas befo
