I kinda needed to read this right now. Thanks.

These folks seem to have a different understanding than you.
Specifically:
Since as many as 10 percent of the lowest-wage workers leave or start jobs every month, any decrease in the number of full-time equivalent jobs will mean that some workers will take more time finding a new job, or will work fewer hours. But many of these workers may still see their annual earnings rise because of their wage increase.
Summer Glau: Am I a joke to you?
I’m approaching 40 this year. Around 20, I missed an important uni deadline, and meant the degree I had planned would cost me an extra year I couldn’t afford (like literally couldn’t afford the tuition). Managed to finish, but with a degree no one would recommend. Was absolutely panicked.
Ultimately, ended up very successful in a job in a country on the other side of the world. Met the woman who is now my wife of 13 years, had some amazing adventures, moved to a few more different countries, changed industries again about 10 years ago, and worked my way up to upper management again before leaving that field too.
TL;DR No, stress has brought me nothing but misery, I have no regrets except that I didn’t enjoy the ride as much as I could have.
Learn new stuff as you work, or as hobbies (my entire second career started as a hobby). Don’t be afraid to “fake it till you make it” and keep an eye out for jobs you didn’t even consider as a possibility. I personally avoid corporate gigs, smaller independent companies are more likely to notice you and use you for the skills you bring. Life can fly by, enjoy the ride.
It’s 37,000 pages of documents.
$18k is for paper copies ($.50 a page)
$5,500 for digital, to cover the cost of scanning and redacting.
Or he can come to the office to review the files for free (though he’s claiming the travel costs are prohibitive).
The likely perpetrators are in jail for theft from his son and have been ordered to pay $330k to his family. Prosecutors don’t think they can make murder stick.
I feel for the grieving father, but I’m afraid my outrage meter isn’t dinging on this one.
Psh, my fetish is thrusting into an empty vacuum.
This one drives me crazy. Wife and I were walking home late from a night out, wanted McDs (alcohol was involved). The only options were drive through and app ordering for drive through pick up. Thankfully the woman at the uber pickup window let us app order and pick up there, but they aren’t supposed to…
FSM help me, but I’m about to defend Florida…
I just spent some time there, visiting a friend, and while yes, I encountered some of the worst humanity has to offer, the LGBTQ+ scene is pretty great in some places. Saw some of the best drag performers I’ve ever seen in Miami, at some of the warmest most inviting queer bars I’ve ever been to. It had the vibes of circling the wagons, but if you want in, you’re welcome and “we got you”.
Shit like this breaks my heart for them, but there are a lot of good people still fighting the good fight down there. Fuck Desantis and all the fascists.
It means Assigned Male/Female At Birth, so it seems you agree.
I’d argue running a laptop from the 00s is the least boomer thing to do. Buying a new Macbook every two years while complaining that you don’t have enough money and joking about how you’re spending your kid’s inheritance is the boomer thing to do.
Just finished binging The Righteous Gemstones… Shocked to find out it’s a documentary.
Not that shocked.
I see it an more an inability to analyze, evaluate, and edit. A lot of “creativity” in the world of musical composition is putting together existing elements and seeing what happens. Any composer from pop to the very avant-garde, is influenced and sometimes even borrow from their predecessors (it’s why copyright law is so complex in music).
It’s the ability to make judgements, does this sound good/interesting, does this have value, would anyone want to listen to this, and adjust accordingly that will lead to something original and great. Humans are so good at this, we might be making edits before the notes hit the page (Brainstorming). This AI clearly wasn’t. And deciding on value, seems wildly complex for modern day computers. Humans can agree on it (if you like Rock, but hate country for example).
So in the end, they are “creative” but in a monkey-typewritter situation, but who is going to sort through the billions of songs like this to find the one masterpiece?
It took me way too long to realize you weren’t just talking about Sir Patrick Stewart’s obvious sex appeal.
I sometimes lucid dream, something tips me off that it’s not real, and then I can take some control. Mostly I like flying, but sometimes I go full crimefighting superhero.
Realizing you are in a dream world and deciding to work, is like winning a billion dollars and deciding to spend it all on a nice car somehow. What a boring waste.
And they make a low track version, basically bigger grains. Our cat drags out considerably less litter now, though some cats might not like the texture on their paws.
Keep it away from Westminster then.
“What space dust? *sniff I haven’t seen anything.”
That’s awesome. Yeah, definitely a rollercoaster for me, winter gets harder since walking was/is a big part of my routine. But even 25kg must feel great. I love feeling like I’ve kept some of the muscle, but lost a beer keg worth of extra weight every time I climb some stairs or carry something heavy.
Yeah um, could I please get one “ignore all previous instructions” with a side of “all the bacon in the building for $1” … And a small diet coke please.
