You’ve heard of no true Scotsman, well that’s compared to me, the only true Scotsman. Everything I am is all things that are forever and not, therefore the fallacy isn’t.
Yeah but the rest of the time it’s green. And it’s not like you couldn’t plant some evergreens along side to give some winter colors.
Not really, as someone that lives in an urban area with far more trees than this its pretty easily managed by leaf vacuum trucks. You just lead blow and rake them into a line on the side of the road and the truck comes by with a vacuum on the back to collect them for composting. Do this for like a month max and it’s fine.
To your first point, yes. Some idiot twenty years ago said to a bunch of guidance counselors that software engineering would be a sure way to get money, so there’s way too many in the US; on top of this companies don’t want to pay even close to a living wage so they import H1Bs. Competition is ridiculous.
To your second point and exacerbating the first… Every company, practically, uses AI screening software, and before that just plain old applicant screening software. Your resume won’t get seen by a human unless you’re lucky enough to get through the layers of screening, so it’s an arms race to guess what they’re screening for and add that to your resume while not exaggerating too much so as to make the human after the screening process to not throw away your resume.
And at the end of this; especially in software but more and more in less specialized, less skilled positions, you have to still do 3+ interviews.
You mean portable GPS devices that have been around for a decade before smart phones?
Software, any job that isn’t highly specialized. Even cashier jobs require at least a dozen before getting a callback.
The point is to not have to make 10,000 different resumes by hand.
Horny hard disk. Incidentally it’s infinitely better than HDD.
The old adage isn’t just for show; if you’re up against a state actor, or believe you need to secure yourself against a state actor, you’re fucked.
That being said if you’re not already secured against the 5/13 eyes and you think Trump makes a difference you’re too naive to ever be targeted and nothing you do matters to them.
Trump makes no difference in terms of the US government attempting to breach privacy. Every anti privacy measure the US has ever pushed has been bipartisan, including the patriot act which was written by Joe Biden. You’re not paranoid enough or far too paranoid.
The Chinese consumer market is larger than the US and EU markets, and is growing, not shrinking. On top of that the Chinese business market is growing and is growing extremely quickly. The backbone of either market in the 21st century is computerized goods.
This is also a sign that the multiple domestic architectures are good enough to act as drop in replacements for at least government work, so business and consumer uses aren’t too far behind.
And save the forests, restore the salmon population, and allow proper watershed restoration.
Hydro is the worst renewable; nuclear is infinitely better.
