They worked so well for that other guy…

So you completely missed the point.. My mother could work at the supermarket as a career and in the days when they actually did pay people a proper living wage. 30 years ago it wasn’t pimple faced teens managing the tills, it was generally women supporting families. As grocers drove down costs so food prices wouldn’t…

It is when it adds a nationwide distribution arm to a SHIPPING COMPANY. Amazon will only let Whole Foods “fail” by pivoting it into something else. They need the brick and mortar storefronts to achieve what they’re setting up. Since I work with them directly, I can’t say much more, but they’re already profiting from…

Walked into? Motherfucker, I’m the software developer making the robots that are replacing those jobs. Newsflash: bitching and moaning ain’t the reason those jobs are being replaced. They are being replaced anyway. No matter what the minimum wage is, no matter what the employees do or say. If those employees aren’t…

I remember the days of when my mom could work at the supermarket and actually afford 2 kids, those days are long long gone. Instead of rock bottom cheap food we should pay people a true living wage. We’re essentially stuffing our faces of the backs of the underpaid. There is a reason steak was considered a luxury...

How do you figure he’s worth slightly more? A few weeks ago, he may have been worth 50% more than an entry-level employee. Now he’s only worth 6.5% more than an entry-level employee?

How does my analysis skip that? It’s reliant upon that. The ONLY way a corporation can meaningfully recognize it’s employees is with more money. To expect that when you have been recognized at a certain level, that you will continue to be recognized at that level is only reasonable. There are times when it is prudent…

Dude got promotions. Told he was worth X amount to the company. Suddenly, without explanation, he’s told he’s NOT worth that amount to the company. So he says “I’d like the guy who is telling me I’m not worth as much as I’ve been told that I am, to explain why he’s telling me that.”

Why? What gives you that impression? When I hear ‘years of work and dedication’, I hear “I’ve put in the time to earn more.”
That has nothing to do with “I want THEM to earn less.” It has everything to do with “I want ME to earn MORE than THEM. If they make $15/hr, great! I want an amount above that which recognizes…

A fetus has a detectable heartbeat about 6 weeks into pregnancy. A roll of toilet paper: pretty much the moment it comes off the assembly line. If you wipe your butt with toilet paper... well... you’re basically a murderer!

He also produced the hilarious and “how did they get away with that?” Sci-fi/political satire BrainDead on CBS.

Not even close. So far it’s just thermal limitations, which is why you can legitimately get a stable OC up to 8 GHz if you hamfist nitrogen and other stuff into the mix. Theoretical gate limits don’t happen until THz. Not GHz.

I finally watched the video from start to finish. The solution premise to the entire problem was stated at the ending credits, “to solve this, it will take a lot of effort and money.”

As a Floridian, thank you for this interesting and informative comment to an otherwise just awful subject.

Why doesn't anyone care about the millionaires and billionaires?! Complying with environmental regulations could cost them their right to purchase a 4th yacht!!

I’m persistently surprised that Bill Nelson and the other Democrats haven’t tied the toxic algae directly to Rick Scott and his anti-environmental policies. The Lizard Man is surely partly responsible for ignoring the heating of the oceans, rising sea levels, and excessive nitrification that’s helping drive this.

When doing any sort of mass/energy balance in nature, it’s good to separate out uncontrollable factors from those which can be controlled. This way your loading is only that which results from human economy. It’s the old noise cancellation thing. Or separating the wheat from the chaff. Of course you know that, but…

I blame your comment for taking my drift to the next level...

I lost 20 IQ points watching this, but I ultimately feel like I made the right decision.
