neither is freedom.

this is exactly why i bought a ps3

i would argue that normcore is perfectly fine. it can be so hard to find the most basic of items. the problem is Gap was crap. I bought 3 pairs of pants and all three failed in one way or another within a few wears.

probably because we don’t care if our kids clothing is slimming?

the same can be said for men’s clothes. their staple is khakis right? too bad their khakis fit like a cardboard box and fall apart. I’d rather spend $150 on a nice pair than $50 on Gap.

a mile is further than a furlong

They are awful. We have normal standing desks at work and they are great. Occasionally we work in a more remote location and they provide these. They are decent for typing while standing, but awful for doing any desk work and terrible for working in a seated position.

I’d assume pulling coded product and placing it in coded boxes is far less complex that working an assembly line. These tasks are already being performed at an autonomous level. Unionization of warehouse workers would net a short term benefit in terms of pay and benefits, but also encourage Amazon to invest in…

oh i’m totally against public financing for stadia. i was just making a pithy comment in relation to this article that seems to say seattle is doing a good job of not getting screwed...by spending slightly less for a team that doesn’t exist, than spending a lot for a team that is already there.

Good question. I would like to add, if there is a distinction between spending public funds for a team in the area vs. spending public funds on a team that does not exist?

seriously. 1 billion in public money for the cowboys nets more value that 100 dollars for a team that doesn’t exist.

Automation has and will continue to put Amazon warehouse workers out of jobs. Forming a union for Amazon warehouse workers will be challenged by the ability of machines to do equal or better work. They can find repetitive jobs elsewhere, but do not look to product distribution facilities as some sort of haven for…

Looks like the Kinjdom org chart.

Well I don’t get what your point was in relation to an article about unionizing an unskilled labor force whose tasks are currently duplicated by automated systems.

I did not say automation would put people out of jobs. I said warehouse workers are performing the same tasks currently being performed automatically. The level of automation will increase for this set of tasks over time.

“Nope, he’s actually that dumb.”

I’m not sure what you expect the NFLPA to do for a player with no signed contract and no grievance against any organization, beyond moral and vocal support.

The ESPNification of the NFL: More talking, fewer highlights.

The tasks performed by warehouse employees are already duplicated by automation. The share of automation will only increase with time.

All I said is that it will be difficult to unionize a labor group performing replaceable, obsolete tasks.
