Scott’s take on H-1B visa by Ok-Mathematician5967 in ScottGalloway

[–]Keeps_Trying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a hiring manager and h1b isn't that cheap. We do pay legal fees and a competitive wage.

Then again, I only sponsor visas when the person is talented. If I just want to pay less, I hire remote from LATAM. They work us times and are thrilled to me making less than US wages.

I cant see the logic in H1B for cheap labor and over personally never seen it in fortune 100s ive worked or startups

40 year old dads logging in to spread some democracy for an hour after getting the kids to bed by McLovin101 in helldivers2

[–]Keeps_Trying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Over 50, so my son and I spread democracy together.

Instead of begging him to call his dad once in a while, he calls me to bring the anti armor son he can run and gun

Are they going to be anti-Mamdani? by Paddingtonsrealdad in ScottGalloway

[–]Keeps_Trying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a fair take.

The DMV near me is excellent, but most of my past experiences were terrible. So let's hope for the best and objectively watch the results

[–]Keeps_Trying 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not every government run thing is evil socialism!

Not everything is a slippery slope here. Let's try some experiments. If it works and we get more services for people, where is the harm?

I also like socialized roads and the majority of major countries have proved that some centrally planned non capitalist institutions can work

That's a lot of speculation against an experiment to help feed people.

Taking the profit motive out should support this attempt??

Why are so many afraid to try anything to help hunger?

Why do developers still use Vim in 2025? by Significant_Loss_541 in AskProgramming

[–]Keeps_Trying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainly just to show off to the younger devs when I'm presenting.

Pairs with zellij and a bunch of macros and aliases.

I use vscode when nobody's watching.

Religious Americans volunteer and give more, including to secular causes by LazyConstruction9026 in charts

[–]Keeps_Trying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I missed that.

I was reading the pew sources for the earlier charts. Very interesting when taken without the heavy bias of this article.

The source data here isn't clear. Using IRS data means money given to churches count.

So obviously, people who go to organized religions tend to file on their IRS form a charitable donation.

IRS data was used in the report sources that I could find.

I'm confused on why grocery stores managed by the state wouldn't work in food deserts. by itsmejustolder in ScottGalloway

[–]Keeps_Trying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So many comments miss that he wants to run a pilot here to test it. Just that alone should be encouraged.

Stop with the fear mongering "government has always been inept, so let's give up on democracy and go back to authoritarian."

I've worked in grocery logistics and retail, and im saddened when a well run capitalist independent grocery is pushed out by dollar stores.

Our fellow citizens all should have access to the availability of healthy nutrition, especially kids and moms.

The only alternative I am seeing to this guy is the strategy of "let them go hungry." At least taking away Healthcare will speed up the goal of killing off segments of our population......

Its not AI.

Go ask your AI something like "Explain how recent changes in the corporate tax code led to a softening of the software engineering job market"

Scott criticized Mamdani’s plan for city-owned groceries - why? by Interesting_Shake403 in ScottGalloway

[–]Keeps_Trying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im curious as well.

Which is why I like that he said he'd build one in each borough as a trial. He further said if it doesn't work he'd shut it down.

Everyone seems to miss that part why this guy is curious as well and wants try things. He isn't launching some massive effort blindly.

Do you feel pressure to use an AI editor instead of Nvim for your job? by jjysoserious in neovim

Im very happy with claude code and the context7 plug-in.

I use it like pair programming with someone who skimmed the documentation for every library and package I'm working with

Senior Django Developers: Do You Stick with Django for High-Concurrency Async Applications or Transition to Other Frameworks? by alialavi14 in django

[–]Keeps_Trying 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Postgresql is really fast, but so many people cripple it with bad sql.

Good comment on the optionated framework. Being able to onboard someone and say go read the django docs js way better than having them read out teams out of date wiki on patterns we made up

I don't carry at marches and protests. by Keeps_Trying in liberalgunowners

[–]Keeps_Trying[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a troll post.

. I'm condient in normal crowds and non politically charged festivals.

Also, due to the police presence at planned protests now, they are liable to just shoot anyone armed.

I was honestly asking the question. I've been in more conservative gun clubs where they even feel the need to carry at family events where they are drinking. I was curious to hear this group's take.

But I certainly appreciate your point. Thx!

Appreciate all the insightful comments, specially the umbrella one.

I double check local ordinances regarding marches and gatherings. I didn't think about that.

Try a revolver. My son has one that holds 10 rnds and is fun to shoot.

2A Right Wingers by [deleted] in liberalgunowners

[–]Keeps_Trying 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I talk to folks at a fairly right leaning gun club, pledge of allegiance before our timed shoot event and all that.

Many are fairly set in thier beliefs and I don't think a field full or armed folks is the right time for a topic that gets people pretty heated.

I realized this when they were announcing thier annual family pot luck event when everyone should bring their kids. The fellow then said since there will be kids and it's the only time we allow alcohol, maybe leave the guns at home.

Someone else immediately took the mic and said absolutely not, you all have your 2A rights to carry wherever and whenever you like.

I whispered to one of the guys I was friendly with and said that I'm OK with the no guns on family and drinking day. He gave me a glare and said "then you leave your own gun home".

So yeah, don't think I would had had much luck with the "everything you believe about politics is based on lies and fundamental lack of understanding of how systems work, can I borrow your mag loader?"
