Clearly it wasn’t. The original post showed one manager being an asshole. OPs follow-up is that all managers are assholes. The leap and logic there is a relatively stupid way to view the world. It’s the same logic that says my sister is bad at driving, therefore all women are bad at driving. If you or the op want to have an immature view of the world, that’s your prerogative, but I’m interested in understanding at least the first level argument to be made for why all managers are bad.

You seem to have a very immature view of life.

That seems so weird. Linked in is simply a way to connect with co-workers so you can contact them when you’re no longer at the same job. I don’t have them in my Facebook, I didn’t have them in my phone, but if I want to contact them for connections or anything, LinkedIn is the place for that. How much you interact with the posting garbage is entirely up to you. I do it extremely little and I have no problem with LinkedIn.

I’m a manager, why am I a bastard?

OK… so this is weird. The Supreme court just upheld that the funding structure of the CFPB was constitutional overruling the 5th circuit ruling that the CFPB funding structure was unconstitutional… But THIS federal judge just used the 5th court unconstitutionality ruling as the basis for why this CFPB credit card rule was unconstitutional (the CFPB is unconstitutional so any decision they make is invalid). It seems like he’s leaning on a just overturned ruling to make this decision. Is this just a case of a timing error where everything in the credit card fee case was filed before he Supreme Court overruled the 5th circuit’s ruling or is there another argument there?

That’s all great, but the real thing that will stop it is economics. We have a PHEV and I calculated it out and we pay $8 per gallon equivalent compared to $5.50 for regular gas. That’s a pretty big difference. Right now we ignore the EV part of the vehicle. (Live in California and I pay $0.50/kwh.)

We’re planning on getting solar shortly and that may make it feasible, but until then, it’s not.

Your comment makes no sense. Try replying to what I wrote please.

I don’t think it’s good to have such wealth inequality, but I do this general investment into the stock market should be encouraged.

401ks are so much better than pensions as a retirement vehicle. Better return on investment and more financial separation from the company I work for. I never worry about someone raiding the pension fund or a company going bankrupt, and I’ve received much better return on investments than the numbers you hear from pension funds! That’s not even considering 401k matching…

The US only has a positive birth rate because of immigration. It probably won’t be that long before we in the US follow Japan’s example and offer incentives for people to be parents. After all, if the R’s are feeling more that the "immigration is poisoning the blood of our nation and D’s are in favor of helping young people have kids, everything is in alignment for that to work.

But you don’t understand. Billionaires earn their money. They’re superior to us. They make that much because they’re just much better people than the rest of us. If you stood next to Musk you would notice the heat radiating from his head as his massive Iron-Man like intellect dwarfs your puny brain. You should be in awe of his superiority and beg to have his children (even if you’re a guy). Clearly they should be rewarded for all their helping society and their taxes should be LOWERED, not increased.

The REAL billionaire problem is that we don’t have enough of them!

It stokes his ego. People have to listen to him and he can promote his own voice far beyond what it’s worth.

Why do you think he regrets buying Twitter? He thinks he’s saving the world from leftist propaganda. He will never be poor. It would hurt to lose 40B, but not that much. Only his ego would feel it.

I’ll take a 5 sec delay over ads any fucking day of the week.

I appreciate you providing the actual tweet… but I have no idea how to translate it. The double/triple negative really throws me for a loop and I don’t even know how to read this. I assume there’s more that has Elon talking white pride somewhere else? Am I blind or naive in not seeing the problem in the post?

Edit: Oh, I see, the post BEFORE that one was saying asking people to “just come out and say ‘Hilter was right’” if that’s what they believed and this was a response by someone. Ouch.

I completely agree.

He nearly didn’t leave. He almost had his cronies not certify the election and stay in power. He showed how weak our system of checks and balances truly is. He had his peeps storm the halls of congress to try and stop the “peaceful transfer of power”. It is very fucking far from robust.

Look that’s nice and all, but it’s not going away and it’s only going to get worse. The age of fake AI porn is only beginning. Full-on porn videos where you can take a couple of photos of someone and the AI will build a model of the person and insert them into the porn video is coming. Whether this is done for laughs, from embarrassment, or because it’s sexy doesn’t matter.

This genie is not going back in the bottle. This is only the tip of the iceberg. We are moving towards an age where you will be able to have virtual sex with anyone you want as long as you have a picture or video of them. VR sex and a porn game that can map someone into a character isn’t that far away. It really doesn’t harm anyone if we quit being such prudes.

If the thing you took away from the Trump presidency was that the American democratic system was robust, then you really weren’t paying attention.

That seems like really low numbers. Ex-Twitter is (in theory) a multi-billion dollar company and Visa should be a “whale” of a client… $77.5k is nothing for advertising revenue. A drop in the expense budget. That’s not even one software engineer. How does the company stay afloat if numbers look like that?

Yeah, isn’t it like practicing? You’re not very good at something so you practice over and over and over and hopefully when you’re done you do it better… You know different than when you started.
