I mean… the PO shouldn’t have come in at 5:01 if they wanted it approved that day. That’s just rude.

I work in document control, so I’m sending documents between companies regularly. Often, at the end of the week someone will dump a 100+ document transmittal on us half an hour before the end of the day. And then they go home.

You bet your ass that shit is waiting til Monday.

I mean… you didn’t say anything else, how else could you have meant it? You even complained that them leaving on time was inconvenient when someone else dumped something in their desk after working hours.

That is 100% not how you framed your initial comment. It was very much focused on how the workers weren’t going above and beyond to work when they didn’t have to.

Sounds to me like they were reacting to a shit situation in the most appropriate way they could.

So you’re saying they should have worked less?

So… they knew the value of their own time and didn’t overwork when they didn’t have to?

Most office workers could probably learn from that mindset.

They had a site redesign to garner more monetization.

You must not’ve been on reddit 10+ years ago.

“Don’t hate the companies, hate the people who lobbied for copyright laws… the companies!”

He is more hated, yes, but a lot of the people who hate him will vote for him anyway because they’ve been led to believe the alternative is the end of civilization as they know it.

Don’t worry, they’ll still use your data.

Someone’s never had a depressive episode.

Just like humans are basically just trees, because they’re both carbon based lifeforms, right?

So… useful then?

Yeah, but at about 400 degrees higher than silicon.

Considering the leaders of Hamas are flitting around on private jets seeing all their fellow war criminals… I dont think we can say they’re particularly oppressed or abused. Theyre just using those that are for their own malicious purposes.

Inflation is great to keep the stock market afloat. That’s about its only redeeming quality. The reason that most economists like inflation is the false premise that people will stop spending money if money starts increasing in value… but the vast majority of people are going to spend their money one way or another, cause they can’t just stop buying food or paying for rent… and they’re not going to skip out on what little fun they can have because it might be a little cheaper later.

Deflation is bad for the rich. Because it means their non-monetary assets are suddenly worth less.

There is no one key word. They all kind of intermingle to explain the whole idea. Picking and choosing which word you feel most comfortably explains your own opinion doesn’t make it right.

One can assume, yes. But that’s not especially scientific, is it? What’s the point of the research if you can’t look at the methodology?

Someone else defended the post from people saying “well d’uh” by saying we need to corroborate our theories and not just assume they’re correct. Kind of hard to do when research is hidden behind paywalls.

So self-delusion?

Because corporations make things based on the demand of those individual people. They don’t exist in a vacuum. And they’re not going to change because someone on the internet rants about them. Their only incentive is profit
