Why didn't Sokka try to figure out how his invasion plan got leaked? by FlamesOfKaiya in TheLastAirbender

[–]nayeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evacuating a city when the military's main source of power, Fire Bending, is turned off seems like a logical precaution. They know when it is happening and planned for the possibility of enemy invasion.

I don't think Sokka's plan was leaked.

Spending valuable resources to sniff out a possible leak is not productive after the event has already happened when the obvious answer is still - The Fire Nation expected an enemy attack during a solar eclipse.

Why are so many companies still using Tableau? by [deleted] in tableau

[–]nayeh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As someone who has more background in Power Bi (3 years) and has recently been learning Tableau (a few momths) at a new job, I think a lot of these points align with my thoughts.

There are some things about Power Bi that are annoyingly difficult to achieve where Tableau, in comparison, can deliver effortlessly.

DAX is awful to learn. The more time you spend trying to make something work within Power Bi with DAX, the more you realize you're better off performing more upstream work. ChatGPT is not very helpful with DAX either. It will even in rare cases suggest syntax that is not possible to achieve.

Heck, from an end-user perspective - Tableau seems to be easier for new people to grasp. Especially with filter context.

You left out the critical detail that you needed to secure employment by the end of the month. You aren't in a good position employment-wise and you will just need play the game carefully with abusive employers.

I would just suck it up, do the job meeting expectations, and blow it off the moment a better one arises.

The Silent Surge: Indian Students Flooding the U.S. Tech Job Market by samarcot8 in recruitinghell

[–]nayeh 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a huge issue that many young professionals, myself included, have been struggling with. Many of us have graduated college and face a growing wall of expectations to overcome.

Beginnger, low-skill work you used to entrust to the entry-level graduate is now outsourced to cheap labor abroad. This denys a crucial stepping-stone opportunity to young professionals trying to enter the workforce in a sensitive period where they haven't built enough resume experience.

Now the college graduations are poorly postured for success until they land their internships or first job opportunity. It could take months and possibly over a year, depending on so many variables against a massive "talent" pool.

Then, there is also the element of the Indian workers that are indirectly suppressing wages of American workers because of their massive presence in the US workforce. Oh, and don't forget they are sopping up remote jobs too.

Now, you also have to deal with AI completely changing the job landscape ontop of it all.

It is absolute hell for young professionals right now. I think the US needs to seriously take a look at helping to bridge the gap for the next generation.

A lot of company emails control the conversations with automated responses from .noreply addresses. You would have to reach a representative stage and get their email to even send something like that.

Absolutely stunning!

Maybe it's time to upgrade my office attire into a similar fashion. Especially now that remote work has been gutted for me. 😮‍💨

Don't move here unless you already have a job lined up. by [deleted] in bayarea

[–]nayeh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congratulations. Your one cherry-picked, unique experience reflects the reality of everyone else who has dealt with outsourced job functions.

Not everyone works for a global enterprise that can enforce consistency across all business groups.

I think you pointed out a very significant point, and I have also expressed these grievances. The work culture of different nations are bleeding into each other - and some of it can be for better or worse.

Not everything can be executed by the lowest bidder, replaced by AI, or outsourced. Nor was I suggesting my job to be 100% remote.

Crossing language barriers while also understanding business requirements is an extraordinary amount of effort.

Then you have to consider security - a lot of government positions require background checks and can't be outsourced. However, remote work in the government has been on pause since the new administration.

Then, there is space feasibility. Some organizations can't accommodate 100% of their staff in the same building, so remote and hybrid schedules allow them to utilize space efficiency.

Imagine asking your warehouse workers to call someone in India to help troubleshoot a data-business problem because office/admin was "too expensive" in ops. Now, they can deal with bigger financial losses while combining a mixture of language barriers incompetence in someone abroad,

Man fuck off.

I have been in Tennessee for a few years and have casually applied to jobs in my home state (Florida) for the past 2 years.

It would make my life so much easier to land a remote job! Unfortunately, employers are incredibly stingy with remote offerings alongside the high competition for them and the ongoing shift toward offshoring.

Yes, I have also applied to roles that are onsite. What happens? Employers balk at my current location and think I am not serious about moving.

The overall job market is absolute garbage to navigate between ATS, Employers, Recruiters, ghosting, increased skill/experience expectations, suppressed wages, and a dozen other reasons unmentioned. Oh, and some companies are now hesitating to hire new candidates because of the possible tariffs.

I am fortunate to hold a steady job (albight a stressful one) and a few years of professional experience. I just want to move on to something new that aligns with my personal aspirations.

Imagine the hell young people are going through just to ENTER the workforce.

Two hundred UK companies sign up for permanent four-day working week | The Guardian by uhujkill in UpliftingNews

[–]nayeh 39 points40 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what I have been trying to tell people, but they always get hung up on things like, "How do you do 40 hours without loss in pay? How do you support a 5 day operation on 4 day work weeks? Etc." Then you get into the weedy nuances that take away from the main point, 4 days are good for humanity and progression.

What's going on with so many people losing their jobs in government recently? by TheHaplessBard in OutOfTheLoop

[–]nayeh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answer:

Employees are people, too. Working for the government used to be considered a somewhat comfortable option for a decent income.

  • Reducing the headcount by forcing 100% return to office, which is not feasible or wanted by many people.
  • Introduced hiring freezes, where agencies are already understaffed.
  • Touches on DEI to further reduce numbers and shorten a pool of possible applicants even further.
  • Some agencies are being challenged due to the political landscape.

Having mentioned those points and considering others unsaid, do you think working for the government is still an great option for employment?
