A step further it should be more than twice a year I would say once a quarter would be more preferable. There should also be one day a week everyone on the team should be expected to be in the office. Beyond that max 3 days a week none of this minimum bullshit.

I love being in Canada and they routinely use terms like "clean natural gas". Like wut?

I would argue a good 99% of what we experience in life should be opt-in and yet here we are. Use of AI, companies getting our data, etc is all opt-out meanwhile organ donation is opt-in. Wtf.

I meant the true and proper SWIFT that is used by almost all financial institutions for transferring funds.

SWIFT is the easy one. Fun fact they looked into blockchain at one point and went "yeah, nah"

The economy has not been good since the 70's and I wish economists would collectively pull their heads out of their asses and stop towing the line of the ones in charge.

What you or I experience is completely decoupled from the stock market, or the GDP, and has been forever.

Um you realize a T1D can't produce insulin right?

I implore young people to get into ai resistant fields and push for a return to basics and inefficiency.

I'm almost 49 and my exit plan from my corporate job is to have a small farm just big enough that it can be run simply with man power alone and then market to a premium.

Humans are not meant to be machines. Inefficiency needs to be valued more than it is.

How do you stop the politicization of technology in the classroom when the policies of schools are so heavily influenced by politicians?

We have this problem in Canada too.

I grew up in a society where the truth and data were what drove our learning. That got thrown out the window in Ontario about 10 years ago.

Oh sweet Jesus a few things.

  1. A child is allowed to enjoy waffles and syrup once in a while.
  2. I have more rules in my house than she does in hers
  3. You're completely talking out of your ass making assumptions off of a single Lemmy comment.

Jesus Christ talk about taking a comment from 0 to 100. Do you feel better driving the car off the edge of reason?

More patient than me. I just got the divorce and now my ex and I are both happier.

Man I remember telling her one day when she came downstairs and I was feeding our newly diabetic son pancakes with syrup for breakfast and hearing "what are you doing? His blood sugar will go high?". I stopped told her we would give him more insulin and then gave up and told here it was why I asked for a divorce. At no point was there a good morning. It was right into what I was doing and how it was wrong. God forbid we parent different.

Long story short I've put a lot of work in with the kids and they have every other week with me and I am doing my best to correct the issues created from our 10 years of marriage. Is she aware? I don't think so. Even when she has the kids they still come to my house and I still have them for sleepovers. They don't do the same with her.

In a way I feel sad for her.
