Sure. But I think it's still a worthwhile evaluation. 100k is not what it used to be by any means unless you are in a low col area.

In a state where corporatism dominates everything and the reins are minimal. We allow corporate A to get away with more than we deem appropriate for the sake of preserving the bottom line. This gives them leverage to do it again and again or to intensify. It also showcases to corporation B that this abuse is at an apparent acceptable threshold, with room to probably get away with a bit more. It's an abusive cycle that will continue to demolish the well being of more and more people until proper reins are put in place.

Ah right. Gotta continue letting them get away with whatever they want or we might hurt the bottom line. This thinking is part of why we're here.

Sure you can. We could limit the work week to 32 hours, pay higher salaries such that homes and goods are affordable again.

I highly doubt that. They are open-sourcing a small suite because it is economical to do so. Closed source means constantly having to re-train newcomers. Normalizing VsCode and friends will go a long ways. Same thing Google did with their IT certs.

Fair, but let's be honest, most of the time a partner may not want to hear about a solution because they first want compassion and understanding. Be willing to listen, and your partner will talk about a solution when they are ready.

What? A cue being solely sufficient to make a decision and a cue bei g used in conjunction with other things are two separate things.

[-] SquishMallow@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

No dude. Sound and air pressure are cues as well.

YouTube surprised at sudden lack of consumers

It will. Takes time to test and roll things out

A minimum 4 year commitment was supposed to make you more valuable in the job market. That was the entire point or at least the message broadcasted. If a degree isn't conducive to large potential for at least a 30% increase in wages, what's the point of that time invested? Either institutes are adequately designed to promote this or they're effectively useless in a practical sense.

Isn't this standard procedure for blogs/journalism? I thought the quotes are used to imply a term is not being used because the author thinks it's true, but rather to indicate that that's what the topic is centered on.
