You don’t get severance when you quit.

Severance is usually worse if you wait to get fired rather than taking a voluntary exit.

If you aren’t happy at a job, taking an offered exit is often a good decision.

3rd sentence of the article:

Indicted on three counts involving money laundering and wire fraud, the Charlotte-area man faces a maximum of 20 years per charge.

If you follow the article to the press release:

SMITH, 52, of Cornelius, North Carolina, is charged with wire fraud conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; wire fraud, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison; and money laundering conspiracy, which carries a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison.

That only works when everyone is participating in good faith.

Call it tragedy of the commons or sealioning, but the unfortunate reality is a lot of online “discourse” is only interested in distracting, confusing, and exhausting you.

“It”

You’re welcome?

That we’re called lemmings, obviously.

How could you not know that?!?! /s

They have those in the US too.

Such an obvious scam. “Do this thing that might lower your rates.”*

~in 99.99% of cases rates increased~

Isn’t everyone’s phone also their refrigerator?

I assume it means “minimum 15 years before eligible for parole.”

Just fyi:

• performant == effective
• performative == related to artistic/dramatic performance

I don’t have nearly enough tinfoil for this

This is a bizarre take but I support you for being a weirdo.

I’ve been asking why cars don’t have more obvious visual indicators since I was like 8 years old.

It’s pretty weird that we’re basically just working with 2 sets of lights and blinkers at this point.

For AV’s specifically, a pretty significant/obvious missed feature is some indicator that the car “sees” you. Pedestrians make eye contact with drivers to check if crossing is safe. How is there no equivalent for AV’s??? It’s such an obvious miss.

It’s okay. I’ve misspelled “peek” as “peak” multiple times in the last week.

English just be like that.

Lot of armchair philosophists disagreeing with you, but you’re right.

Sure, some people make art for art’s sake. But it doesn’t put food on the table. Like it or not, most popular media is created at least in part as a source of income for the creator.

It’s fine to pirate things if you actually can’t/wouldn’t otherwise engage with the media. But at least be honest with yourself and recognize that you’re stealing income from the creator.

Might have to block this bot if it posts puff piece CEO bullshit under the guise of “technology.”
