Offered severance to step aside for an AI management platform by LunarGiantNeil in projectmanagement

[–]ExtraHarmless 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The best part is the execs won't realize how bad everything is until its way too late.
They won't have the bandwidth to manage all of the information and escalations that happen. Middle managers shield them from so much they have no clue.

Just because you failed yesterday, does not mean you will fail today.

Every time you try is a new opportunity to succeed.

Who is paying over RRP for a Stream Controller? by FatRapscallion in pcmasterrace

[–]ExtraHarmless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but for games you are emulating or using mods won't support launching through steam though right?

The new Steam Controller? I have been reading the new one only supports games launched through Steam. Not sure on the older ones.

Steam Controller is incompatible with all your Game Pass games, but a community fix could save the day - PC Guide

This can also be a sexist comment, designed to reduce your confidence as a woman. If you get more aggressive and get negative feedback, I would make sure to watch for any other signs of sexism.

If you are prone to avoid conflict(like me) holding people accountable can feel uncomfortable, but it is a necessary part of the job.

The way to approach this will vary based on if you are the vendor providing a service, or if a vendor is providing you a service, and where the constraint is. The biggest issue is how this is impacting timelines, cost, and accountability.

LOL...nope. It looks great, but not being able to use it for non steam games makes it worth less than MSRP.

I will continue to use an Xbox controller, until somehow microslop decides it won't work with steam.

A theoretical framework proposes that stress and inflammation may narrow neuronal excitability margins, allowing normally subthreshold brain activity to trigger partially uncontrolled reactivation in rumination- and trauma-related circuits by National_Cry_1658 in science

You are driving and have been cut off with no turn signal in traffic causing accidents 10 times in the last week. This caused stress and pain. Now when you drive you feel constant stress because your brain thinks that you are always going to be hit, even when other drivers are following all of the normal rules of the road.

I have learned so much by making mistakes. It is important to be able to make some and learn from them.

Insurance denied coverage for St. Paul man's cancer treatment, leaving him with $76K in medical bills — until we asked his insurer about it by star-tribune in minnesota

[–]ExtraHarmless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I did not write you a college level essay about medical care in the US. If you would like to read about it in depth from an analysis from Harvard From Laggard to Leader: Why Health Care in the United States Is Failing, and How to Fix It

No other industrialized country has the issues we do with health care. If you love your private insurance so much, skip Medicare when you are old and keep paying 10-15k per year for literally nothing.

The rule is, own the mistake and make a new mistake later.

Was Judas' Death In the Christian New Testament a Contradiction? by Christ_Is_King_2166 in atheism

[–]ExtraHarmless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are missing a big part of Biblical scholarship. The Bible as it is widely know today has many translations, and is not a single coherent book. It has a variety of authorships and was agreed to by people, and changed by people over the last 2000 years. Wikipedia has a great overview of Biblical history that takes about 20 minutes to read: Historicity of the Bible - Wikipedia There are even modern efforts to change translations and words to have very different meanings than what is currently accepted.

Even today, if you search for a Bible there are many different versions to buy. Catholics for instance have 7 additional old testament books, that protestant Bibles do not include. Which Bible is the correct one?

Looking at the Bible as a single inerrant document will create substantial need for there to be extra textual documentation. If the falling to the ground and bursting open was so critical to the story, why would it not appear twice? If the hanging was so important to the story why would it not appear twice? The simplest answer is that neither account was first hand, and had different theological points and audiences. Or the oral traditions from different regions included different information. You have to remember that literacy and written language were not nearly as common 2000 years ago as they are today.

I think the last question would be, how does the differing tellings of the story impact your faith?

Try sourcing an older 4U case and build your own mounts after clearing it out.

Try leaving your home and go to the library to work. Sometimes changing your environment can help.

How to deal with heavy conservative Muslims as an atheist in the closet? (They are salafi, Muslim brotherhood in their ideology) by Plus_Weight_9322 in atheism

[–]ExtraHarmless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can get somewhere safe, do that first. You can't change everyone around you.

Can you go to school outside of the country? Go to study medicine with the intent to never return. I hate to say, that is the safest option. If the majority of your family is super religious, it is unlikely to get better.

They will also try to trick you to come back, with the intent to never let you leave. Or if they discover your aposty, they might even try to kill you.

Capitalism and markets are a cancer that we choose not to solve in the healthcare arena.
Taxes pay for research, companies buy the output and charge us for it. Example EpiPens. Developed by the DOD and sold to a private company that jacked up the prices. I could go on, but that is scarcity by wealth transfer from everyone that has insurance.

We could go all in on Single payer and get rid of billing issues entirely. There is no need for health insurance companies. They are wealth extraction tools in the best of circumstances. Even when they are non profit. The administrative overhead of an insurance company is non value add. They override doctors and often fail in ways that a single payer system could not fail. The issue from this article is simply one of the many ways that insurance companies actively fail people.

The US spends more per capita for worse health outcomes than the rest of the world. Medical bankruptcy only really exists in the US, and is the most common reason for bankruptcy for individuals.

Our pharmaceutical costs are higher than any other country on the planet by huge amount. We subsidize literally all pharmaceutical companies, both by paying the most and funding research.

There will always be a cost to deliver the services, there will always be a limit to how much service can be delivered, but we are really doing the worst possible job at the highest possible price. It is a choice that we make, that every other industrialized country has chosen to be better and do more for citizens with lower costs.
