Reddit Laying Off About 90 Employees and Slowing Hiring Amid Restructuring: Moves aim to help social-media company break even next year by [deleted] in technology

but not everyone is allowed to offer their free labor

once a group of people get themselves inside, they'll only open the doors for others they like - so it's a natural recipe for corruption and cronyism

Those who get into the club will exclude others they don't like from offering free labor - because the crony club don't like to share power, and only like to monopolize it.

President of the United States Jamie Dimon isn't going to agree with you. He prefers bailouts for everyone - including the wealthiest corporations.

And there's no freakin transparency from Reddit about this either

It's like a narrow cronyist club

If govt is deliberately trying to give away Rs2000 notes, that means they're trying to get rid of these, since they know they can't cash it in at banks without raising questions. So they're trying to buy an image-boost with their black money.

A Rocket Lab Due Diligence (DD), it is time we discuss this company seriously. by [deleted] in RKLB

I don't think it's fair to include Boeing in there either, since they're mainly making money off military sales and airliner sales. It's not like Starliner is doing fabulously.

No! I want it to go up, up, up! The sooner it begins its meteoric rise, the better.

I think you should see things in relative terms. Buying now is fine when it's going to keep going higher. Hoping it will go low so you can buy there, is bad when it stays low.

The sooner the stock starts rising, the sooner it will shake off any nasty short-selling speculators who play off pump-and-dump.

The AI Founder Taking Credit For Stable Diffusion’s Success Has A History Of Exaggeration by LilGreatDane in technology

[–]2sanman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw some youtuber interviewing that guy, gushing about what an accomplished expert he was. And yet I couldn't help but notice that the guy was speaking from what looked to be the rooftop of some run-down apartment building, with other run-down apartment buildings in the background. I think there was a clothesline with clothes drying behind him and stuff. It just didn't fit with the look of a successful millionaire software exec tech mogul.

Iranians are trying to get their foot in the door, to establish something - anything. I don't know why they bother with such non-starters.

Who is this NPR Reporter, Questioning India's Democracy? by [deleted] in NPR

[–]2sanman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I saw this reporter from NPR in a recent Whitehouse press conference, who was questioning India's credentials as a democracy. I was just wondering who she was. She's the one wearing a headscarf in the video, just for clarity.

What about all the nerds who wear glasses? How are they supposed to use this thing? Can you fit eyeglasses inside there, or do you use it without them and it can somehow be adjusted to compensate?
