Me trying to prove to HR I’m oppressed enough for a promotion.

It never ceases to surprise me how many people get salty when they see something amazing. It’s a frickin flying car!

A lot of attention goes to H-1Bs, but few know about the unlimited L-1 visa that large corporations use to fill US positions.
Vice President JD Vance breaks down the data: "If you are working as an H-1B visa in the United States of America, you’re earning $20,000 less than an American citizen hired in the same position. If you were brought in by one of these foreign outsourcing firms, you’re making $48,000 less than an American citizen in a similar position. So I’m sure that everybody here understands the game that is being played. You bring in indentured servants from outside the country, you lay off American workers and, if you’re a corporation, you make a ton of money by under cutting the wages of American workers, replacing them with people who frankly shouldn’t be in the United States of America to begin with."

The plane I've always wanted to fly in and almost got deployed in is the C5. Loved walking onto the flight line when one came to Luke AFB.

How to quit your phone addiction 1. make it harder to access the thing(s) you're compelled to look at 2. give yourself something positive and rewarding to do instead 3. treat your phone like a land line by leaving it in one spot in your house (or out of reach in your office) 4. expand the length of time away from it
I went from looking at my phone every few minutes to forgetting where I left it in under 2 months. If you are addicted to your phone and want to quit, here's how I did it:

Since the 1970s manufacturers focused their designs on women. Now everything looks identical. 1960s was last decade of cars designed for men.

At least during the Cold War with the Soviets we made them pretend they weren't spying on us.

I hate being an AI hater, but guys like this need to drop their hype-y language. They always say “it does amazing things” and every example is a low priority, and sometimes near-useless task.
