That may be true for warehouse employees, but the corporate offices are a toxic mess of shitty culture and dated ideas. I've never seen a tech department bleed so much underpaid talent to Amazon.
When I quit because they tried to force me back into the office mid-pandemic (August 2020) I had multiple offers for fully remote positions with twice the salary within a few weeks.
But yeah, if you are a cashier at a warehouse or whatever I hear it's a solid gig.
When I was at Costco, for Member Service Week they literally gave us a rock, like from the gravel outside the office, with the note: "You rock!"
You don't need to self actualize through work. There is no such thing as a waste of time.

Biden has definitely been a mixed bag on climate, but here's a recent win. The admin is aware of pressure from the public on environment, they know they need us to keep winning.
It's not actually about listing the fees. They're worried that if they have to list the fees, customers will realize they're paying 19.99 a month to rent a router, or are getting charged for a land line they didn't ask for.
Don't worry I'll have your share, get fucked Mitch.
I know McConnell is just a lightning rod for hate for the GOP and as soon as he's gone some other amoral, sociopathic mercenary will take his place, but damn if he's not just the worst.
Hah, this was about 10 years ago - I doubt anything I wrote is still around.
When I used to do copywriting for junk SEO, I began to suspect that my editor didn't actually read anything I wrote and just passed it through a content uniquness filter, so I started putting in random references to HP Lovecraft stories in the articles I got assigned.
They all got published, no questions asked. For a while if you searched "Homeopathy and the Esoteric Cult of Dagon" my content was the only result
I understand you guys are frustrated by Republican hypocrisy but it is literally designed into/a selling point of conservatism.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

I work on chatbots for a big tech company. Every team is trying to use GenAI for everything. 90% of the stuff they try won't work. I have to explain that LLMs can't actually think at least three times a week. The hype train was too strong. Even calling it AI feels misleading.
That said, there are some genuinely great applications for LLMs that i've enjoyed looking into.
