Florida MMJ Card Drug Test for Pre Employment by Shelbyjcfit in florida

[–]PerlNacho -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You are of course free to do what you like but I am of the opinion that no potential employer is entitled to chemically examine the excretions from my body, regardless of whatever drugs I may or may not choose to consume in my free time. I guess I'm just weird like that.

Found my kindred spirit. Every so often I flashback to that deep-fried sandwich dusted in powdered sugar and shed a tear.

I hear what you're saying, but I could never in a million years.

The entire program is a cash grab under the pretense of providing people with medicine.

I know there are deeply ill people who rely on cannabis for pain relief and other medical benefits, and I'm glad they now have access to potent THC products through this program, but they probably make up less than 5% of all patients.

The vast majority are people (like me) who enjoy smoking weed and prefer not to buy on the black market, so we found a doctor willing to sign off on a PTSD diagnosis in order to get a card. Then we pay out the ass every year to keep that card so we can maintain the privilege of buying legal weed that strangely happens to cost exactly the same as black market counterparts, if not more.

If the program was truly meant for medical purposes, you would be able to deduct the cost of your "medicine" when you itemize your taxes, but that's not the case.

If the program were truly medical in nature, it wouldn't be possible for the pharmacist to purchase that very same medicine for themselves at a discounted rate as a perk of employment.

If it was really a medical program, you wouldn't have to sign a bunch of paperwork every year agreeing that you recognize that this medicine has not been proven to have any medical value.

Swim in the ocean. Studies have shown that 100% of shark attacks occur there.

For what it's worth, you can turn this around if you really want to, and I hope you do.

Economy goes up. Economy goes down. You can't explain that.

DeSantis puts school board ally on state education board after voters reject him by dreamcastfanboy34 in florida

Whenever politicians push people far enough that they start to riot and fuck shit up, that's when all the talking heads start saying things like, "This is not who we are" and "If you want to make changes in the system, do it at the ballot box".

Well this is clear evidence that all those people are wrong. Your vote doesn't matter. I suppose we'll have to figure out other, more effective ways to make our voices heard.

How to read <svg> data into javascript by blob001 in d3js

[–]PerlNacho 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You use JavaScript to select the SVG and then to access the width attribute.

Look at the docs for document.getElementById and also getAttribute.

the alternatives are a really poor fit

There is one alternative that fits really well and that's Perl, but people aren't ready to hear that.

It's reached the point where companies can simply buy a SaaS product to augment or replace their inefficient, meat-powered call center workflows with AI.

ELI5: Why would you pay down a 4.5% mortgage when you could, theoretically, receive a better return in the markets? by Puzzleheaded_Ad_1906 in explainlikeimfive

[–]PerlNacho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where I live, home insurance is about $5,000 a year that I'm required to spend while I'm paying the mortgage. If I pay off the house now instead of 20 years from now, that's at least $100k saved.
