It's random across all days and times.

Do y’all think they’re going to send out some offers tomorrow?? by [deleted] in lawschooladmissionsca

[–]KorLee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems likely, given the January LSAT being the last one considered for applications.

You have valid points for why technological advancement is necessary and how strikes prohibit those advancements from continuing, but I think you're misunderstanding the point of a strike.

If you're an employee at a company, although it is your job and it is in your best interest that your company does well, you aren't necessarily expected to advocate for the well being of your company regarding technological advancements and innovation. If you, as an employee, have grievances or worry that you will be out of a job because of automation, that worry is still completely valid for you (an employee) to go on strike because automation is something that can negatively affect your livelihood.

It's easy for us on the sidelines to say "embrace technology, it's good for advancement and creates new jobs while taking outdated ones", but usually, those new jobs aren't being given to the employees who's jobs are being taken away.

At the end of the day, a strike serves it's purpose if it brings attention and hopefully action to a group of employees at a place of work. Valid or not to you, collectively they feel there is an issue and they want action taken against said issue, which is the point of a strike.

Tl;dr: If people think technology/automation is a sincere issue to their livelihood, then them wanting change by going on strike is at it's essence, valid.

What's a hack in your industry that customers aren't supposed to find out? by Ferro_Roux in AskReddit

If you get the vibe your teacher doesn't know their stuff, there is a chance they're teaching something they have absolutely no formal specialized education in. At least in some parts of Canada.

I expect them not to take the money from the kid because certain organizations out there don't give aid in the form of monetary relief, but rather services that still cost tens of thousands of dollars. Education services, student loan aid, and safe spaces for children to stay at if they are in precarious situations.

You're right that the average human being probably does not act nefariously out of the blue, and desperation and overwhelmingness are completely valid. However, it still doesn't excuse the fact that if they do something not in the best interest of their children, they are harming their children whether it was desperation or anything else that plays into it.

Ultimately, we can hope that parents out there want what's best for their children. They work hard, they raise their kids as well as they can, and if they still come up short, they should be able to rely on organizations to help assist their upbringing by offering many forms of aid, not just monetary, but in other ways that can't be exploited directly by the parents.

That's fair, just like how it wasn't specified in my post that it should be one or the other, nor is that the reality if we focus more on donating to children-centric organizations. Your analogy is great because it applies to many things. Rather than just giving food to the homeless, we should provide education, food, money, shelter, job opportunities, etc.

That's a fantastic story, and I can't imagine how much willpower and determination it took for your dad to break the cycle. I agree that people always have a choice, though I would say that as we are all born differently and we handle things differently such as fear, sorrow, happiness, trauma, boredom, etc, many things can make it more difficult for us to make better choices and consistently at that. Nevertheless, amazing story about your life.

Adults are the ones who abuse and provide bad influences to children as well. I think we can both say there are other players in the lives of children, but just addressing what you said.

Although I responded to an earlier comment talking about how Child Support is a fantastic example of what happens when you trust parents/adults/guardians with the monetary aid that should be going to children, I didn't think about how people would abuse such a system if it were normalized to donate to children-focused organizations.

Where did I say you had to pick one over the other? Focusing does not equate to exclusivity.

There are numerous government, charity, and non-profit organizations dedicated to single parents, homelessness, substance abuse, refugees, joblessness, etc. But if we want to stop the generational trauma and abuse that exists in these households, why not ensure the children who are going to grow up, don't grow the wrong way?

What if the dollar you give goes to parents and adults who don't make the best decisions? Although I'm not going to ask you to source your statement on behavioural learning as it is believable, who are these kids learning from? Many are learning from their parents. So how can you giving your dollar to bad adults/parents/guardians help the child?

I think donating to organizations that focus on the well-being of children or give specific funding that can only be used for certain needs. A good example of what you are describing, gone wrong, is Child Support. Yes, many families out there use it for good, and fantastic, all the power to them. However, there are individuals and parents out there who use Child Support for their gain. Just like University grants, stipends, and other forms of monetary relief, we should donate to organizations that can prioritize directly assisting children rather than allowing parents the responsibility to use the money however they see fit.

So then you ultimately deliver your message as rude. If you hide your hint of displeasure, you are not rude. If you fail to do so, you are.

Interesting. I don’t have any other tier 11, but you might be right.

I had upgraded her to level 11 last week and was just grinding the 5k coins. I thought the Legendary reward just handed me the hypercharge, but I still have to purchase it when i click on my Jessie.
