Our country (USA) seems to be under the delusion that once you get a job somewhere layoffs will never happen or you have a job for life. WHERE did this assumption come from anyway? It's the same with these complaining, whining Federal workers who FINALLY must prove themselves worthy of a job and keeping it just like the rest of us. People have become lazy and entitled to jobs when business climate changes all the time and sometimes there's not enough work and people must go...it's that simple...you are supposed to improve yourself and always be prepared for the next opportunity. Grow up

As much as we want to control everything that is an illusion in life. We CANNOT CONTROL this planet or weather or disasters or any of the myriad of other tragic events that happen in life because of natural causes or bad decisions by people. That's life people! Wake up and stop looking to government and other faulty human beings for solutions to things out of OUR HUMAN CONTROL!! It's one thing to do the best you can and use technology and the like. BUT it's quite another to act in pride and arrogance to think we, sinful and weak human beings, can somehow create another Tower of Babel and think it will work this time....oh, the cry of the failing gambler....this time I will win, this this time is different, and so on and so on.... Much is in life is out of our control and if we continue to on this path it will lead to more despair and more heartache. Prayers are needed for the victims and their families as much as supplies and alerts....material things only go so far. If you do not have GOD in your lives then you are lost and every time a disaster happens you will want to blame others, look for solutions that don't exist, and end up back in the same place as you are now....Pray for the families of the victims and pray for the victim's souls that they are welcomed by Our Lord and have no more pains and no more tears as HE PROMISED.

Yes, AI can write code but it can only produce product based on the INPUT A PERSON PROVIDES. Try it now...ask AI to write code to spin up a website with shopping cart and authentication and working with load balancing and so on. It will write all sorts of code BUT a person still has to either customize for specific environments OR the INPUT must be SO DETAILED that the AI produced output covers everything the business is looking for...is that possible? Of course, but you are still trading a web developer/DBA, for example, writing the code using premade blocks as well originally crafted for someone to craft the DETAILED INPUT that AI would use to create the same output normally done manually or semi-automated in most cases. Planned Obsolescence is the term everyone needs to remember...when some jobs go away others begin. This is how technology works so if companies think they are doing away with humans and automating everything they are in for a rude awakening. I saw this firsthand with CLOUD COMPUTING....at first, wonderful, efficient, almost too simply. THEN, the bills came and suddenly companies had to readjust their thinking because the costs were much higher than originally promised and planned. Just saying....everyone should take a breath and not make assumptions that end up costing millions of dollars and the best talent in people.

There are plenty of sites offering step by step to install W11 on UNSUPPORTED HARDWARE and I've done several of my computers without any issues. Process took maybe an hour or more depending on your computer and it's done. Frankly, I think MICROSOFT LEAKED INSTRUCTIONS ON INSTALLING TO UNSUPPORTED HARDWARE....think about it, the big hurdle was that consumers simply aren't going to just trash perfectly good computers just to upgrade one version for very little gain. Let me tell you...I'm glad I didn't pay for this because I see very little in the way of unique features from version 10 to 11 and this upgrade proves it....I'm assuming most of the upgrade is for the under the hood specs for memory management, processing power, disk usage and so on....probably more of the hidden technical improvements are what make it better than windows 10 but visually you won't see much change. I have to admit, I had several issues in windows 10 on a laptop that I use. In one example I had an issues where WiFi would never connect automatically but now under windows 11 it works as it is supposed to on boot up connecting seamlessly. Other oddballs issues have been resolved too. At a minimum, you might find the usual issues caused by Windows ROT are now solved by upgrading to windows 11 at least for now. Eventually, Windows 11 will grow long in the tooth and have the same problems...they always do. Good luck. here's the SIMPLE method using the command prompt...no other tools needed. https://youtu.be/fWxadSWa5sQ?s...

He also ignored the conclusions found by a climate group that Rogan read to him on that same podcast stating our planet has been in a long term COOLING period for centuries if not longer. To which sanders dismissed FACTS to continue pushing his lies and fake statistics about how more extreme weather (including hot weather) will get worse essentially baseless fear-mongering YET AGAIN by this complete liar. Facts are so inconvenient aren't they bernie....what a rube!!! anyone who supports this loser should turn in their brain and donate it to science...

Every time a new technology or device or process or whatever is invented, people get replaced. However, while certain jobs go away or are changed this often leads to NEW opportunities and jobs that didn't exist before the NEW INVENTION....in this case we're talking Artificial Intelligence which is exactly new by any means but is maturing fast. There will always be a need for human beings and while layoffs and lost jobs could happen in the short run, most likely newer jobs will be created but don't exist yet because technologies such as AI are fully implemented which takes time. We heard the same things as computers advanced back in the 80s to mass production. I'm sure people who used horse and buggy thought the same thing about cars when they showed up....Don't worry...there will always be a need for people.

It's about time we Americans STOP buying all of this cheap crap once and for all. Between the lack of quality, stealing of IP, producing knocked off brands that are cheap fakes of the originals, etc. it will be worth going cold turkey on this country and not only teach them a lesson in economics but maybe help Americans realize that we are made for more than just clicking add to shopping cart and wasting money on garbage we don't really need.....hopefully, there will be many POSITIVE side effects to this basic tariff issue--which, by the way, is NOT new in business. Tariffs have been around for a long time...it's ONLY because Trump is in office that suddenly lefties have a problem with putting America first...they hate that....they want our nation destroyed....you go Trump....crush all of these cockroaches and make them play fair for a change....

It's only bad if you sell....for those of us in long term outlooks this is THE TIME TO BUY and stay invested. If you run away every time the market declines then good luck making any returns. If the stock market always went up no one would invest because it wouldn't be worth anything. The entire point of investing is RISK/REWARD. You just need to find the amount of risk you are willing to accept and then stay invested. You simply won't or can't hope to retire investing in savings binds and money market accounts....you MUST utilize equities across the various the asset classes otherwise you'll never see growth in your portfolio and will never increase your wealth. NOT that money should be the driving factor in your life, as that is reserved only for Our Lord GOD, but if you want to do any philanthropy or charity work you'll need cash and it requires time to grow....you think a savings bond will net you the interest enough to donate anything much less retire on LOL....Grow up....these corrections are necessary and shame on the media for exaggerating the decline for their ratings and shows.....fearmongering at its best...

I could care less if private companies allow employees to work remote or not...BUT Federal Govt.....get your collective @sses back to work in office. We the taxpayers pay you to be available in an expensive, rented or owned office building and permitting taxpayer funded employees to just enjoy 100% remote time is ridiculous and doesn't serve the public as they are supposed to do. As for Dell and others....my suggestion would be permit some remote work as a perk to the job if it's appropriate and adjust pay accordingly. If a worker agrees to take less pay for the benefit of working at home (i.e. saving on transportation, gas, time, meals, etc.) it could save companies money. I think the reason work from home is such a contentious issue is that there are always SOME EMPLOYEES who have jobs that require 100% onsite work and it's not fair to them if others are permitted to avoid commuting and meal costs and parking costs and gas costs and the like while they must slog into the office. If companies adjust accordingly it could still work but private is private and they can do what they want.

Give me a break...climate change has NOTHING to do with CA wild fires...you built cities on top of DESERTS you fools....what did you think would happen over centuries...it would suddenly become a lush, tropical, oasis? Funny how climate change fanatics NEVER point fingers at their ignorant and fraudulent democrat leaders like Newsome who is a joke! Because of climate change activists CA now has water issues so let's not pretend the "environment" is the cause

The United States Federal govt NEEDS to give ALL JOBS to American citizens first and heavily or jail business owners who try to circumvent such a system simply to pay less money, no benefits and hire essentially indentured servants for their own profits. We all know why businesses LOVE illegals....costs less. As for these VISA employees, they should be given preference AFTER American citizens are considered first because to say only foreign workers are skilled and Americans can't do the job when WE are the nation leading in technology and all of the world's wealth in the first place is disingenuous. Time to start TRULY putting Americans first in the job market and everywhere else IN OUR COUNTRY!!! We shouldn't have to compete with non-citizens on our own soil.....ridiculous.

WT??? How can someone else or a freaking company open bank accounts in another person's name? That's outrageous and is exactly what IDENTITY THIEVES get charged with many times. And what's with the banks permitting this at least without getting tacit approval from these individuals? Why bother protecting any of our private data at this point or giving out those annoying free credit monitoring services when banks allow someone else to open an account on your behalf WITHOUT APPROVAL OR KNOWLEDGE!!!!

I don't understand why there's a debate or even confrontation between employers and employees regarding this work from home vs in office? Why can't employers just do both depending on the job and tailor pay, benefits, vacations and so on accordingly? I would think as part of the benefit of working at home an employee should expect LESS in other areas and not be permitted to have all of the pay and benefits and such as compared to other employees who either willingly work in the office and/or have no choice because of their positions that require in person work. I'm saying this as an I.T. person who must be onsite to provide support for both people and computer systems at all levels. BUT, I think those of us who have no choice but to work in the office should also get higher pay to cover commuting costs among possibly other benefits such as maybe added pay for daycare costs for the willingness to be in person. There is a higher degree of sacrifice when going into an office versus being able to roll out of bed and be online in minutes....c'mon, anyone denying that massive benefit is being disingenuous. I've worked at home too during my time at some companies and I can guarantee NO ONE is working the full time at home and many are getting a lot of house chores and appointments and other non work related tasks completed which should be expected PROVIDED THEY GET THEIR WORK DONE ON TIME AND COMPLETELY!! Otherwise that's another issue altogether. In fact, working at home as an I.T. person (provided the environment is properly set up for remote support and maintenance of systems which ours was) allowed me to do work after-hours much more easily and with almost zero disruption plus allow me to adjust my work day accordingly. I was always available during the day for technical emergencies but was allowed to NOT be online actually working if I was going to be working later into the night. It was easier than having to work a 24 hours day, which is exhausting, then figure out some day to take off in the future to make up for those added hours and that was always pointless and didn't really afford me a real day off. I'd rather adjust the work day when it happens but that's me. But if someone gives the employer the proper hours and productivity who cares where they work....home of office....once again use the "right tool for the right job" and if having remote work as an option gives you a happier workforce that's a good thing....happy equals productive. I know people who love going into the office just to be part of a team...I did....working from home was definitely beneficial during bad weather but I often enjoyed the job more when I was at the office (assuming no meetings LOL) supporting the staff and working on the equipment. Again, this is from an I.T. worker's perspective but probably similar to many jobs. I don't think this needs to be a difficult issue unless employers are just stuck in their mindset that if they don't see bodies in the office than no work is getting done...seems a bit narrow minded to me but I'm not paying the salaries and benefits and at the end of the day...it's the EMPLOYER'S RIGHT TO DEMAND IN OFFICE WORKERS....employees can always go elsewhere.

Windows is so annoying anyway and Linux has so many OS options for all ranges of people.....and it's free. I've only kept Windows around because I tend to help other family members who still use it but I can always just set up a virtual machine and use it for anything windows related but the main OS is one of the common distros like Ubuntu or Mint or some such variant......plus if you have any technical experience using VirtualBox or one of the other virtual environments you can easily try a bunch of distros out and see which works best. Even if I were keeping the windows 10 OS I wouldn't bother paying for security updates because over time there's less and less attacks on a given OS because so few people use it and have either moved to 11 or whatever iteration is out at that time or they use something else....has anyone heard of windows 98 vulnerabilities today? Of course not because no one uses this OS anymore. BUT if I were to install it, assuming Microsoft didn't have some back-end system preventing this to run once internet connected, it would work just fine and would only be insecure if I visited sketchy sites or didn't use best practice. Just because it exists doesn't mean malware automatically finds it. It probably wouldn't work not because it's insecure but that websites no longer support it....it's often lack of functionality or features that are required not security patches that force upgrades. Security improvements come with new OSes but the reason to upgrade is always based on business needs...not security per se. When was the last time any IT admin ever upgraded solely because some OS was lacking a security update vs a much needed business function that would come with the new OS? Exactly....no Admin would be stupid enough to upgrade an entire environment simply for security patches....there would need to be a business justification or need to do so and security improvements would simply be the secondary benefit. I say...pass on purchasing any security update subscription....not going to be extorted like this simply because this greedy company refuses to support it's OSes purchased in good faith. And how different is windows 11 or, frankly, any future build that they couldn't continue supporting windows 10 for a lot longer time? Just saying.

Insert SARCASM HERE....you libtards wanted ABORTION anytime and now you are whining that birth rates are too low LOL!!! You freaking people get what you deserve. unfortunately for you, your obsession with baby killing will also condemn you to eternal Hell BY YOUR OWN HANDS. Congratulations....you've won your battle for Satan....too bad he doesn't honor his promises as the father of lies....good job....May GOD the Father have mercy on your souls because low birth rates to maintain your countries is the least of your worries...
