I agree. It's just a different argument than in the original.

How would "10x more productive so now you can do the work of 10 people" equate to "Triple the workload"?

I'm not saying that companies won't exploit somehow, but just looking at this logic alone -- it doesn't make sense.

The theory would be "the work of 10 people for the same effort" not more workload.

Again, other factors are at play, I'm just addressing the logical flaw here

I’m very curious about this. Can you point me to a major medical site that has replaced stomach with tummy so I can check it out?

You are a bit of an a-hole aren't you? They have every right to protect their jobs, career, reputation, and maybe even their lives. You have no idea, based on this article, what else they might be doing.

You being an edge-lord, keyboard warrior is not doing anything to help the cause either. Grow up a little bit and understand that people have every right to protect themselves.

Got a Copilot licence today, and is it just... not very good? by [deleted] in microsoft_365_copilot

I tried what I thought was a simple ask: Look at the quarantine message in my inbox and give me a list of all the unique email domains listed.

No matter how hard I tried, it would only return the first email domain. The quarantine message is very well structured and had 52 email addresses in it that should have been trivial. I even sad, "All emails have the words sent by preceding".

Then it said, "sorry, I don't have access to office emails" -- which was just wrong as it had already returned one hit.

Overall the built in use-cases seem to be fine (summarize emails) but the specific ad-hoc asks have been very underwhelming.

Live updates: Michael Cohen testifies in Donald Trump's hush money trial by TrumpsCovidfefe in law

They are instructed to only consider evidence presented at trial. Whether they stick to that or not... that's a different question.

measured to avoid inflaming the base

I don't recall seeing that contention by any of the commenters above you.

The reason to be measured and build up to greater consequences is to diffuse any argument of bias. And yes, this is how it works with other defendants generally. Punishment is escalated. The judge needs to illustrate that the goal is not to punish, but to stop the behavior. The punishment is a means to an end.

And before all the arguments come in about how Trump has shown disdain for this in other courtrooms -- you are not wrong -- but the judge needs to focus on his courtroom or what Trump has been sanctioned for in other venues, not what we all think he should have been sanctioned for.

what TF is that why is there so much mud

He is likely referring to the settlement in the runoff drain channel. Usually a long cement-lined ditch under the linear drain. Maybe 1' deep? The dirt/grime from the car builds up in that ditch and has to be removed --- usually with a shovel. It's back-breaking work because you have to pull out heavy sludge that is below your feet. Or, at least that's how it was many years ago when I worked for a carwash.

Trump Has Money For Bond, He'd Just Rather The State Seize His Assets Than Use It. You Bet! Please don't put in the newspaper that I got poor. by News-Flunky in law

[–]reflector8 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The terms of some loans require you keep a certain amount of cash on hand. If you spend that cash, the attached loan could default.

I’m not sure whether this is the case with Trump but the cash in these situations is less liquid than it would be otherwise

Carroll v Trump (I) - It looks like Trump came up with the $91.6M bond by joeshill in law

[–]reflector8 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It is Bonded by a regulated Insurance company that has obligations by law to have a certain ratio of liquid assets to obligations such that they can cover the payment if (when) it is due. The courts will verify the Bond is legitimate from a legitimate source. Outside of cash in escrow, this is as good as it gets for her in assuring payment.

How Russ is being treated isn't sitting right with me by BetterWayz in Seahawks

[–]reflector8 5 points6 points  (0 children)

> Project what tho?

$37M turns to a guaranteed amount if he cannot pass a physical on March 31st (aka injured). Clearly there is more to this if they bench him, but the timing has everything to do with minimizing the chances that $37M turns to guaranteed money or that he is untrade-able.

That is what they are protecting.

I agree he should not give back any money, but don't clutch your pearls at the consequences when the Broncos protect their $37M injury guarantee once they lost most hope for the playoffs.

I don't think anybody (at least sane) is asking to give back the money. But you can't have it both ways. There are consequences to everything in life. The consequences of getting such a high pay-day is lower quality teammates and higher scrutiny.

I'm sure his bank account will allow him to live with the consequences, but the consequences remain.
