I’m Jewish. Fuck you.

The legislature isn’t just saying, “oh hey this is a new kind of employment relationship, we should update our laws to suit it.”

The California supreme court ALREADY DECIDED THIS ISSUE. The legislature is now updating the state employment laws as a result of the supreme court’s decision. 

Ok, let me repeat myself more briefly because you clearly didn’t read anything I just said:

Set hours are not a requirement for classifying a worker as an employee. Here’s the guide from the federal Bureau of Labor Statistics. These are the highlights:

The status quo is going away whether or not this law is passed, because the California Supreme Court has already ruled that gig economy workers like Uber & Lyft drivers are being misclassified as contractors when they aren’t.

I work in corporate HR. Your bullet points would only apply if they were full-time employees. There are several other employee classifications that could apply to drivers like part-time or on-call.

True independent contractors are essentially operating as small businesses and have the ability to compete for business and set and/or negotiate their prices. Uber & Lyft drivers depend on the apps to provide them with customers and are paid at whatever price the apps set. It’s totally different.

Not everyone has the same opportunities for employment. Workers choose to work for Uber and Lyft for all kinds of reasons including that it’s their best/only option. Uber and Lyft are taking advantage of their workers by classifying them as independent contractors when those workers are not actually independent…

Stop drinking the Kool-Aid.

I’m curious to see if this has VoLTE and wifi calling support. ZTE is halfway decent at carrier compatibility but you never know with these things.

Even phones with the right LTE bands for Verizon need to be whitelisted for activation on Verizon’s network. Verizon did whitelist the Axon 7 but I have a feeling this go round ZTE probably doesn’t want to pay for getting the Axon 10 whitelisted by Verizon.

We have 3 cats in my house and two of them are now pretty old at 17 and 15. They’ve caused various problems with peeing outside the litter box. The solution turned out to be a really simple one: we got a litter box with lower sides that’s easier for old cats to get in and out of.

The sunroof is only available on the i30 N in Australia, Spain, and maybe a couple other EU countries. Do you really think in those few countries, Hyundai is selling more i30 Ns than they’re selling Veloster Ns in the US? Unless you work at Hyundai I’m fairly confident you made that shit up.

It’s out of my price range and I wouldn’t get one for myself, but if the back seat is decently roomy, I’d love for this to be my wife’s next car. She likes the small CUV form factor but on longer highway trips we usually take her car (an ’18 Mazda CX-5) and I do the driving. This thing would be the right size for her…

Hyundai offers a sunroof on the i30 N outside the US. 

The N isn’t some purpose-built trackday toy that’s going to be completely ruined by a sunroof. It’s a hot hatch meant to be driven daily. I like the performance goodies on the N, and I like sunroofs. Hyundai makes Velosters with sunroofs and I’d like it to be an option on the N. If you don’t like sunroofs then you’d…

I really want to like this car, but I wish there was a damn sunroof option. 

The C8 interior looks perfectly fine to me. Nice, even. Those more concerned about interior quality than me can pop for the 3LT and its full leather dash covering.

I mean, not knocking the strength of male ballet dancers, but any decently strong man should be able to bench press at least his own body weight, or more. I’m just some dude who goes to the gym frequently and I can do that no problem.
