Honestly, it was the tone of the message, which is admittedly difficult to derive from a forum. IMHO, the proper response would have been one that questioned whether the 'upscale grocer' selling spareribs at $6.99/lb vs $1.49/lb were at different ends of the subjective or objective quality spectrum. In my case, they are literally the same brand: Smithfield. The only difference is that Aldi is $5+/lb less expensive.

That said, IMO, unless we're talking about a butcher that sources heritage-breed Berkshire (or the like) pork from a local farmer, I don't really give a flying fuck where the previously cheap cut of meat I'm going to put on my smoker for 6h is sourced from.

Why would I pay $6.99/lb at one of the 'upscale grocers' in town for spareribs when I can get them at Aldi for $1.49? I, too, drive a Mercedes, but it doesn't mean I'm a fucking moron w/my money.

The average employee lasts well less than a year at a fast casual; this had little to do w/her background.

I am absolutely certain many of those kids are great at writing code; what I have found in the last ~3y of hiring candidates out of undergrad and/or masters programs is that they DO NOT interview well.

They can answer esoteric technical questions about software dev (I *assume* this is because they study for coding interview questions) but they cannot possibly answer more general questions about themselves, how they would operate in a real-world business setting, and/or how they might build something from soup to nuts.

I'm not asking them to give me real-world experience; but, I expect a college graduate to be able to think about questions asked critically and provide a coherent and thoughtful reply to that question. Even if it's technically 'wrong', the conversational nature is INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT for any work I have done in my 25+ year career.

Anyone can have AI solve most esoteric technical coding problems now; interfacing ability w/others on the dev teams and the rest of the business is what is important in getting shit done.

Colleges need to start investing HEAVILY in leveling up their students in how to interview well.

"Ms. Mishra, the Purdue graduate, did not get the burrito-making gig at Chipotle."

I think this single sentence says more about it than anything else in the article.

I watch dogs (primarily overnight--most for 3-7 days but some 1 day and some >7d) via Rover. I make around $1500/month (pre-1099) and after their ~20% cut (of which most people give back to me in tips).

I WFH so the largely passive income is nice. I wouldn't have found as many people w/o a platform to do the heavy lifting for me in finding new dogs.

I am not advocating that we need to have these sorts of things in the market, but it does make for nice extra cash. YMMV.

I used to screen scrape jail registry records for county jails in my home area. Though the IDs weren't exactly sequential, doing groups of 50 would get hits for two of the local counties.

What I found was that, while the website UI wouldn't show juvenile records, you could access them directly w/the ID. Surfacing it to the county took a day or so to find the right person but they quickly closed that hole, but who knows how many records were handed out to malicious actors over the years before I found it.

There is no universally accepted definition for SUV, particularly across country boundaries. The only real differentiator seems to be available 4-wheel drive. Assuming the Ioniq 5 is the AWD versions and not the RWD ones, I guess it fits the most basic definition.

In my experience, PIPs are NEVER intended to be a tool to help you; they're intended to help the company find reasons to fire you.

Use the 90 days to find a new job; not try and pass the arbitrary/impossible to meet requirements.

Plus, once you've been put on a PIP, do you really want to continue working for a company that was literally trying to create documentation to fire you?

No; you don't.

My ex-wife stole ~$300K from me preparing for a divorce. It was up to me, the person who made the money, not the person who pfilered it, to prove she did so and it would have cost at least 1/3 of the money and the likelihood I could prove to the court it had been done, even though it was blatantly obvious what she did to be near 0.

The legal system is absolutely fucked and it needs to be changed.

I honestly want someone from Apple to explain to me why Chinese knockoffs smart watches allow notifications to go to my phone and my watch simultaneously as well as last >10 days on a charge, yet my supposedly superior Apple Watch (at 4x the cost) lasts barely a day and doesnâ(TM)t allow for this.

The only reason I use the Apple Watch instead is because my cheap Chinese knockoff for $27 didnâ(TM)t track swimming.

Ridiculous.

Why do you call Elon a fuckwad? Because he doesn't agree with regime changing every nation that refuses to become JUSA's little bitch?

Or maybe it's because Elon doesn't think JUSA should be bombing the crap out of brown people villages in the Middle East just to get more oil or satisfy the zionists in AIPAC that buy the JUSA Congress every year.

Of course you probably think that all that regime changing and coup instigating and brown people village bombing is all so that we can spread DEMOCRACY and FREEDOM to these unwashed heathens. That's what the unforunate citizens of JUSA are propagandized to believe. JUSA = the greatest superpower of propaganda and brainwashing in the history of the universe.

Elon is just calling a spade a spade. When the JUSA bombs the shit out of some poor Slavic country or some Muslim country and kill a few million people and call it DEMOCRACY, and you keep believing this propaganda coming out of your CNN or BezosPost or whatever, well I'm sorry but you're just a mindless brainwashed zombie. As unfortunately most American are.
