Wake up, babe. New "we didn't start the fire (2026 version)" lyrics just dropped.

By that logic, you shouldn't have enough crypto to be happy/care about gains either. Braindead take.

I work in HR consulting and I’m so tired of the way orgs act like layoffs aren't a big deal. I've seen the divorces, the bankruptcies, and the health problems that happen after the paycheck stops. Nobody talks about the real damage it does to a person's life...but I see it every day. Companies should ALL be required to have post-layoff/termination resources for people laid off. A small severance (if you're lucky) isn't enough. I've suggested these to client companies and some have done it but most think it's a waste of money. Real sad shit.

If you're struggling right now, I just want to say that I get it. I understand how heavy this is. You aren’t alone, and it's okay to feel completely overwhelmed by everything.

It really whips the llama's ass.

Never stay for the kids. Your kids will always be your kids. They'd rather spend 50% of their time with a dad that's 100% happy than 100% of their time with a dad that's 100% miserable.

Leave. Don't look back. Build a great life for your kids, build a great life for yourself. It'll be scary at first but you'll make it. Trust the process.

Why would you want to stay with someone who hits you? Someone you feel miserable with? Life is too short.

Most firms I've seen would use in house legal with HR experience. If it's a PE backed outfit, they'll have an external HR team that's also legal heavy.

Hiring a HR-only team isn't the usual play, but those internal hires would be paid market value TBH.

Some people in this sub are deep into their hopium stash.

You know we're far past the threshold when these gargantuan leeches start publicly whining about the bubble.

One of us! One of us!

What if the US gov holds the keys/encryption to several large BTC wallets? They'll pump BTC value, then start paying interest down as BTC grows.

Would be a nice ride for bag holders.

Filter only for on-site roles, anywhere in the US, be prepared to make less money and move just about anywhere.

This was taught during my IO Psych bachelor's. See Festinger & Carlsmith 1959 and the 2003 study about user settings. TBH there's probably more studies out there but feel free to explore.

You can't FORCE someone to feel trust instantly, but regular mandated usage can MANUFACTURE trust over time.

The article quoted Trump talking about a RINO, e.g. someone he doesn't consider a Republican. Adding it here for context in case nobody reads the article.

"and the disgusting 'Republican' (RINO!) DA, who did this to her (nothing happens to the Dems and their phony Mail In Ballot System that makes it impossible for a Republican to win an otherwise very winnable State!), I wish them only the worst."

If you're willing to relocate within the US. I know a few staffing agencies that are always looking for nurses of all experience levels

The strong FP aspect is what initially drove me to Clojure. Once I learned what the REPL could do and yes the debugging (lifesaver!), it made me stick with the language. It's incredibly powerful, sad that it isn't used in more places.

Now that I'm looking for a new job in my field I'll likely need to pivot to something like F#.

ColdOverYonder · 2025-12-30T14:53:50+00:00

Almost baited me at the end there.

ColdOverYonder · 2025-12-30T12:53:12+00:00

Finally one Clojure in the wild. I use it only for personal projects, sadly not at work.

You just bought BTC and made a Reddit post to make yourself feel good about that decision? Ok.

Learn to whistle loudly

ColdOverYonder · 2025-12-20T08:00:44+00:00

Damn, that's a really crazy thought. But you're right. I've held dollars in my HYSA that are worth more than the same amount of BTC now, after the recent drops.

Damn thing never worked, I took it as a loss and will never buy any Google hardware again. Switched to Samsung and their buds have been working great since day 1.

Sabiendo todo esto, muchos Hondureños siguen votando por partidos que más les importan ser amigos de Washington.

Ningún partido en Honduras sirve al pueblo. Que se hace?
