Does this mean that the switch points were blocked by the trash/dumped packages? There was a video showing that one of the rails had fallen over on its side. I have never seen that in a derailment. I did see a WWII-era film where the US Army had a tough time derailing trains they were trying to sabotage, so this is all amazing to me.
Out of interest, could you please point me in the direction of the digital marketing bootcamp that your daughter toook?
They don't need to. These companies have self-sufficient intelligence operations, and they employ seasoned experts. At an outfit like Google, and that may involve too many people overriding checks to be worth the risk of a leak. It's hard to say, I've never worked for Google.
The Pinkertons are still active in union-busting, and they are retained by shiny "Great Place To Work"-type businesses. They're just covert now. When somebody is giving off too many pre-crime vibes at that kind of business, HR can easily get rid of them for unrelated reasons, and gaslight them into thinking it was their fault all along.
Never talk to HR. They are the secret police.
Then maybe the whole system is wrong. If so many people from all walks intuitively judge their experience of the results to be so inhumane, then maybe we are optimizing for the wrong variables.
I'm sure there are many on that subreddit who are far from anarchist or communist, and just find that the message resonates: that working life in the US has become a monster.
I want to work a professional job on a reduced schedule, so that I can prioritise my personal life. 20-32 hours per week, and that can be divided a number of ways. Judging anecdotally from interviewing the past month or two (I took a year off to hone my expertise at my hobby), HR/recruiters are not exactly coping with the collective power shift to employees. I think either side is waiting to see who blinks first. It's too bad it has to be that way, but our system does pit us against each other.
The way forward is to hire more people, pay people more, and give them more time off.
It's not just you.
Seeing the lower face is important to reading emotion. The masks muffle speech as well. I wonder if children, especially in that critical 2-4 year-old period, will have stunted language and interpersonal skills. It's not right.
Are you going to lobby or start an NGO or something? How can I help? I am currently in a major northern US city running my air conditioner, and tired of meaningless shit.
rsync has a number of safety and boundary options, not to mention --dry-run.
Options, as in I also found out about them the hard way.
I've had this idea for a while. A roving machine that slowly and autonomously eats through commingled landfills, like a giant industrial shredder on tires. Take in everything, refrigerators, catalytic converters, electronics, toys, couches, nylon clothing, diapers. Separate everything with some combination of magnets, eddy current metal detectors, centrifuges, machine vision and other means. The metals can surely be sorted in many ways, aluminium, steel, rare earths, the odd radioactive extracted, others melted down and separated. Glass and recyclable plastics cut to pellets. Everything not recyclable but with some chemical energy in it sent to a incinerator (with a high-efficiency electrostatic filter) for power generation. Things like cinder blocks would be left over. This would also reclaim land and eliminating huge eyesores.
You could have done worse than two weeks. The former employees who would not talk were probably under a non-disparagement agreement from their severance - and that agreement under a non-disclosure agreement.
The serving sizes used in Nutrition Facts have no basis in reality. They seem to be chosen to make the calorie count appear not so bad.
In case you haven't been keeping up with current events, Congress has been wrapped up with a bow, put on the shelf, and sold. Pelosi is not even pretending to hide it, while there are fistfights in the streets for COVID tests two years into this pandemic. Big Sugar (is this the same lobby that puts high-fructose corn syrup into everything?) not being Fuckable With is a relatively luxurious issue. Livelihoods depend on their rent-seeking.
If a top Madison Avenue agency offered to work with the Surgeon General for free to develop a national effort to promote exercise and nutrition education in youth, and fight pandemic depression, I bet that Big Sugar would lobby against it.
I've been making sacrifices, bettering myself, and applying to jobs at a relaxed pace (I have turned down a few that insisted that things would be done the Old Way). Thank God that I am in the relatively luxurious position to do so.
Just now I've noticed that downvotes have started to pour in. I am convinced that there is a troll army from a foreign nation-state sent to sow discord, or maybe the Pinktertons, who still have a sophisticated union-busting intelligence group, and get paid tons of money for it by "Great Place To Work" companies you might not expect.
It has to be official from now on. There is going to be no potential for a slippery slope of after-hours messages or pizza party overtime. I have even set up a VoIP number with a 9-5 M-F time condition for use with applications and employers.
I don't have it in me to to work in front of a screen all day, although I understand that works for many on this site. I don't care if the workplace is an open office, a cashier's stool at a supermarket checkout, or a train driver's cab.
Many Americans are hard-working janitors, garbage men and hospital orderlies. They are absolutely crucial jobs. I would gladly take a part-time job mopping floors if I could pay the rent, save a little, and then do my own thing.
I'm not going to say Communism failed because they didn't have machine learning, but I have a feeling that a more equitable and humane economy is possible if all the variables in the equation are tuned right.
I am holding out for a professional position where I will work 24-32 hours per week with benefits. I am not doing the full-time "you own me" rodeo again.
Staying at home in a top city, building relationships in my community, and becoming a cold expert at my craft.
The problem I have with wearing a mask, is that it is very psychologically disturbing. I don't know how else to describe it. It is a big enough problem for me that I would not describe it as a preference. Maybe it's claustrophobia, or something to do with the touch. I hate to describe it as some kind of autism, because they said they don't like that in the other article's thread, but it feels like it.
I got vaccinated and boosted, but had I known it would have become such a political virtue signalling game, I might have opted out.
They might be referring to The Work Number from Equifax, which you can check out of, but never leave.
I wish I could just be a corporate cog for a few days a week and then do my own thing. Unfortunately, at least judging from the interviews I've had the last few months, HR/hiring is still looking at things from a full-time headcount perspective. Somebody complained about having to do paperwork for each employee, which I can't wrap my head around because it's their job to do employee paperwork. But it seems to still be about extracting 40 hours and then overtime from any vaguely professional position. One manager told me that they are limited in headcount for their department.
Isn't this keeping jobs from those of us who are limited to normal brain capacity, but need to make the rent?
Monitoring the camera and monitoring the mic without consent are different areas legally. Photo/video recording is permitted in many circumstances. Recording from the microphone falls under old Federal wiretapping laws. It's why you never see professional security cameras with microphones on them.
What Android emulator do you use?
It's her sanctimony that settles it. Claiming to be righteous in the face of Trump/Republicans' sins (and believe me, I have no special love for that). Similar with people like Hillary acting like they are owed the election. Meanwhile people in the heartland are pissing in bottles, hoping to get another dollar per hour, and getting killed by tornadoes because they are not allowed to leave their shift at the warehouse. While she's defending grift to earn millions more. It's filthy. So this is how we go out, not with a bang but with a whimper. So much for "all men (and women) are created equal".
I wish I hadn't seen this spoiler of a headline.
"Let me check what I am allowed to say about Alice."
No, it's just the money. It's just the perverse disconnect between the wealthy, and those just trying to get by.
It's Mr. Burns hanging a "you're here forever" sign, or Kanye West ranting about his napkin design for the iPlane in the Oval Office while dropping a few "motherfucker"s.
Surveys set up by the likes of "Great Place to Work" and similar are nothing but HR and PR fluff. It's set up to be spinned and covered up.
