With the lastest news of AI layoffs, I’m struggling to understand how the idea of a career still holds. If careers themselves effectively become gambles like lottery tickets, how do we maintain drive and hopes in the longterm endgame of our struggles?...
This resonates well with me. However, still struggling with the last sentence. I can’t ignore how superficial life has become for me. A therapist told me to consider my value for simply existing. There are days when I’m able to do that, but many in which nihilism takes over.
12 years for accidentally bringing 4 rounds into a foreign country for a husband and father of two? Regardless of what you think of this guy, that is extreme.
I’ve found a good number of negative reviews of Bose QC 2 and quite a few good things said about Sony WF-1000XM5 so I’m leaning towards buying them but would love to hear the general recommendation on Lemmy first....
Shit company. I remember seeing the articles quoting Michael Dell saying WFH was the greatest thing and other companies were too scared to do it. All they do is put other people’s shit in a case.
That website seems to be in a competition with others to see how many stupid ad impressions they can land on your screen without completely sacrificing the actual text of the story.
FWIW, this isn’t to do with me personally at all, I’m not looking to do anything dodgy here, but this came up as a theoretical question about remote work and geographical security, and I realised I didn’t know enough about this (as an infosec noob)...
I was looking into this for a family member who wants to look like they’re in a location a couple hundred miles away occasionally. I think the only pitfall might be if they are made to use an authenticator that can query their GPS location in order to enact conditional policies that restrict their location.
It’s not that I don’t understand there are political themes in sci-fi. It’s that it felt like I was being beat over the head with it in D9. Also, just not a big fan of being told something wild exists in a movie but it’s never exposed because the budget doesn’t allow for it.
Good God there are so many assumptions about my character based on this post. Thought I was escaping the Reddit hive mind mentality coming here, but seems like it’s the same shit in another place.
The message is fine. A refugee story. The plight of the impoverished. Fine. It might have landed better for me if there were more sci-fi aspects involved.
In all honesty, the left trying to maintain the illusion that the economy is doing well because of job numbers makes me further question the authenticity of government statistics. The job market is absolutely horrid right now, and any assertions otherwise really set off my BS detector.
Mortgage rates and inflation were at lower points, but most likely due to historic job losses and lack of consumer confidence. In January 2021, when, per Trump, “everything was so good,” unemployment was double its current figure and 95,000 Americans lost their lives to COVID-19.

In our post-AI era, is job security strictly mythical? Or How to believe in careers as a concept worth doing?

Is there a book/saga that you finished and cannot forget to the point where it gets harder to read other books?
For me, the first time this happened was with The Royal Assassin Saga from Robin Hobb, and then Metro 2033....
