I started a sentence in my class with “When I was born”. A student instantly chimed in and said “What in the 19’s?” And I thought in my head, of course you idiot, everybody is born in the 19’s. It still haunts me

It still feels wrong to me, to see it written out, but spoken its different.

I feel like it works to go with say, the 1600’s, which I read naturally as the 16 hundreds. But when I see 1900 I read that as the nineteen naughts, (aughts?) because so often when people are referring to periods in the 19 hundreds, its down to the decade because so much changed between each one. Or maybe I just felt that way because I’m so old now.

Maybe in another 25 years, it’ll be far enough away that 1900’s becomes 19 hundreds in my head.

Yes of course.

US raises concerns.

Israel promises to investigate into the matter.

Then we never hear of it again as the newer atrocities are bigger than the last.

We’ve been in this loop for a year now. It’s not new.

It’s not popular amongst those with f*ck trudeau bumper stickers on their jacked up, under-utilized vanity trucks.

But nothing tied to his name is popular with them.

I would recommend Shopifys APIs. Theres a lot to them, they’re well documented, and you can build a developers store for free.

Adobe commerce is another one. You can get a dockerized store up and running pretty quickly, also free and their documentation includes some basic suggested workflows.

Edit: these are mostly for practicing consuming apis, not sure if thats what you were looking for.

Google (used to) scrapes the specific details authorized by robots.txt and uses it to make your content visible.

OpenAI scrapes everything it can technically see, ignoring robots.txt and feeds i to a black box and regurgitates it claiming it’s something new, that it deserves to be paid for.

Quite different actually.

Having the mass majority of the population trapped in jobs that pay just enough that they put up with it, while giving away all their time and energy to a corporation is exactly why the average person has no power. They’ve had the will drive to force real change sucked out of them.

UBI is a mechanism that can help them take back their time and energy to affect real change.

I think you’re reading that chart wrong.

Curcial and WD havea much higher rate on average across all their models.

The 800% is only because they had a single drive for a certain model, and it failed within 2 months. They have a lot of other Seagate models that are much older on average without any failures.

Seems like a shining recommendation to me.

Statistically speaking, employers don’t.

This is why the UAW are asking for 40% raise, because that would bring their pay back in line with what they were making in 2008 in terms of inflation.

Virtually no one is going to give up extra time of their live to abuse this unless they have been convinced you are worthy of the abuse.

Then it’s personal.

So my question is if thats your default stance, how much do you abuse your staff? And call it fair because its what everyone is used to?

Or the third option, changing to a better employer.

Since everyone seems to think no one wants to work anymore, maybe theres a lot more better options out than than the shitty employers realize.

Sounds like a simple choice. Moving house to be closer to where jobs are is getting more and more expensive.

So that leaves moving jobs.

I wonder why so many employers are complaining ’No one wants to work’.

Easy to dump the burden of the commute on the staff as the cost of living close to city centres keeps climbing way faster than you’re raising their pay.

Times change, and the old standards don’t make sense anymore.

You want me to give up 10 hours of my day to get paid for 8 hours of work? No thanks.

Sitting in traffic still keeps me from living my life. I’ve got a limited amount of time, so Im not giving it up cheaply.

Remote work where possible is the best option for both parties. If only employers could believe it.

The pressure of a non vacuum space would be generated by the gaseous molecules as they collide with the walls of their container.

My layman’s understanding is to get 0 pressure, you either need zero molecules, or the molecules can’t move. Which can only happen at 0K, theoretically.
