Ugh. Why did we ever privatize rail. People would riot if we privatized the highway network, and yet...

Oh god. I was so focused on Trump I forgot this dimwit came with him as a package deal.

I do know a few devs who prefer 5 days in the office. But they're absolutely the minority.

Personally, I try to go once a week, but I usually don't because I dread having a day with 50% my normal productivity.

It's just so noisy all the time in there. Open space and really high ceilings for "collaboration"...

I have a salaried position. I don't clock in. But it's typically only used to deny us overtime pay. If I work 35 hours a week, I'm paid 12.5% less than my colleagues who do 40. And if my lunch break is too long, I'm expected to stay late sometime within the month to compensate.

And while I do have a shit job (save me) I've never seen someone whose employer didn't mind their hours as long as they got shit done.

I wonder what would happen. Let's say 10,000 people.

Let's say some extremist, highly organized group manages to successfully assassinate the 10,000 richest people in the world, and then disappears without a trace.

I'm guessing those people would all be succeeded by their next of kin. Would that cause a wave of change or...?

Oof. I don't love the liberal government or anything, but I've got a feeling I'll miss them when we're under the conservatives.

As a Canadian, I'm like:

You guys are getting food?

(School cafeterias with food service beyond selling terrible premade sandwiches for people who forgot their lunch are rare below college level and AFAIK what few exist all operate like a fast-food restaurant, where everyone pays for their meal then and there.)

I absolutely love wildly inaccurate old maps. They have so much charm.

It's increasing taking up the role of one. And I'm sad about it.

I might stop being sad if its forum features become more used and Discord massively improved discoverability, but for now it sucks for people googling problems.

Sorry. Did a direct translation of the French name without thinking.

Holy shit, I thought people were exaggerating when they said spam calls had gotten out of hand. I didn't think it was that bad.

No, you misunderstand. It's not expert sex change

It's experts ex-chang'e. It's a site for Chinese space program retirees.
