Cast a wide net mentality

Think like a manager:

• Offer employees an AI token budget that’s use or lose. Don’t make any promises on reimbursement and stay vague about how high users can obtain more tokens. You don’t want wasted token usage. More on that later
• Increase workloads/KPI/widget production quota by how much change you can find around some vending machines. Sneak in monitoring of employee user behavior and interactions with systems and programs if you don’t already have something in place
• Link AI assistance to the higher requirements by saying things like “We’re investing in our workforce by providing productivity tools”
• Fire those at/below new requirements while praising those who are left behind
• Throw a pizza party and pocket some of the savings from firing a third of your team. Invest in a mini fridge for the top performer.
• Train new AI on the user behavior analytics you’ve been secretly been collecting and use it to replace the next lower performing third of the team. Keep on the higher performers and give them a small raise so they speak positively about the company and so you have somebody to fix the inevitable problems
• Profit

If there’s some collusion, sure, but you’d have to find a government body with the will and teeth to prosecute.

Nothing really against charging whatever you feel like outside of things like certain supplies during disasters. It’s shitty

I miss ppb. It was like a modern day rickroll but not in any way unexpected from hexbear

I have the same feelings. I’m leaning towards preferring no cameras though. Data is cheap to store and never* gets deleted. Bad actors can comb through that information after the fact and use it for whatever purposes they want, even if it was initially taken/given with good intentions. Walking by a Ring camera now gets a mandatory consent-free facial scanning attempt. These cameras were not initially sold with this being a feature set. Who knows what bullshit they will be used for down the line

I didn’t know either. Such a strange and unusual show - I haven’t seen anything quite like it.

Enjoy it! You could be driving another fun car with a completely boring sounding engine (cough FL5 cough) with almost no good sounding exhausts that aren’t just noise.

RIP in pepperonis OP

A fits on paper much better than B, especially when you try to write as small as possible to fit all of your work on one line

I use the back buttons as alternative shoulder buttons.

My right bumper button broke and I can’t find cheap replacement daughterboards, so bandaid it is. I can’t just solder in a new switch because the leads on the PCB broke. Seems to be a failure common mode for the bumpers if you ever hit the corner or drop it. The way the bumper is designed transfers the full force directly to the PCB instead of to the shell or any actual structural component.

I did some low-effort Googling and now I’m seeing that maybe some sea critters like krill have the highest non-bacteria biomass.

Either way, none of these are beetles!

Pedantry is always important! I would argue that ants would be selected over humans by both mass and population

“Well grandma was a little racist at times”

I honestly don’t know if this would be like letting toddlers run a daycare or if it would be paradise.

That’s why I lift with my back. It’s so strong I don’t even need to feel my feet for several hours out of the day

What a treat

The proportions on the person to the left

This shit can destroy companies and tank its value

Leaving hundreds of contacts in limbo with no resolution has the potential to cost more than $17 million in legal fees and termination clauses.

Where the fuck is the board of directors and why are none of the shareholders revolting?

Exactly. It’s not rocket appliances
