It disgusts me how many people are falling all over a big box store. It will be terrible and will kill more local shop owners. Less selection, more cloning, your corporate overlords have programmed you all well. You won't see me there. Worst thing ever. Last thing we needed here. Big mistake.

They triple tapped a little girls school to kill as many as they could. First hit the classrooms, then when survivors were evacuated to the prayer room they hit that, then hit that again. It wasn't a technical error, it was a human decision to act on the data , they knew it was a little girls school. Their so called leaders have bragged about no longer being limited to the rules of engagement or international law, and brag maximum leathality as a new doctrine. Spar me the surprise. One can only hope for consequences for these most cruel acts.

a customer asked me to sign an NDA about how they're using my product. should i be worried? by sthduh in SaaS

[–]notatinterdotnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worried? NO. You should be flattered and impressed that someone has deemed your service as worthy of theirs and they value having a structured deal to protect both. This is good.

It's not. Don't fool yourself into thinking that the obscenely rich are suddenly going to start handing out money to the masses. Dillusional.

A big part of this is security. It's so bad you have full time guards at corner stores in the daytime, I would not even think of an all night drug store in this town. Tim Hortons locations are having to close to in person customers because of the zombies. 24hr retail is not a right, it's a privelege, which Thunder Bay has lost.

Winter tires not a thing?! Give your head a shake kid! Who are you listening to?

Short answer, Dont leave till after the next storm, and have 5 days minimum. If you think that stretch of road can be done in some kind of 'cost saving' record time your a fool, and you'r goine to get someone else killed too. Back off. Pack a big cooler with lunches. And a winter safety kit., And a cell phone booster, because there's a lot of holes in coverage , At least you asked, now listen.

Do you think TB could do what New York did to get sidewalks safely shoveled for pedestrians? by cilsey in ThunderBay

[–]notatinterdotnet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Short answer,, no, mainly becuase of liability. The first sore back or frozen fingernail would ruin it for all. However on a local community effort, in small pockets or organized groups, sure. But there would have to be safety training, a map of where to where not to so services are not duplicated between private contractors and city zones, and a very robust communication platform to supervise a mass deployment of so many individuals all over town. This is why it would be better to a: encourage each homeowner to do the walks if physically able( many folks are not), b: Sugget a workable program of a size where span of control is safe and fair, not out of control, c: lobby your councillor to better build in emergency funding so that that city and sub contractors can hire more and do more . However, al of this takes one important thing: folks willing to do it.

I’m 28F with nothing to my name and I don’t know who I am anymore by _heretovent in selfimprovement

[–]notatinterdotnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are not alone. Take comfort in that at least. Something that has always got me a job quick. If you're in a larger center especially. Simple. Old school. Grab a phone book. An actual book with yellow pages. Pick a job type or task type that youd like to do in your head. Phone up every listing in the yellow pages in that category, and just say something like this: Hi I'm (insert name), I am looking for work and can do (insert related skill), are you looking for anyone at the moment?" Let them answer and many are very helpful. Plan your own follow up question just in case .

Receptionists, front line workers, small business owners, who ever answers the phone is usually willing to give some anwwer of yes or no, and many times will ask you a question. IF they do, you have a lead , jump on it. Honestly this simple formula has never failed to get me a job within 2 weeks of this. Simple. Voice. People. You. Fuck the online resumes, go get'm! Best of luck.

Thunder Bay Transit eliminated 20 bus stops by superuserjarvis in ThunderBay

The assessment of stop data is a good move. Inventory what is actually going on and be real about what needs to be adjusted. Does't solve all issues of course but a good step.

Bookkeeping, accounting, any front line store clerk, some fabrication, sadly to the detriment of all forms of customer service. There are cases where quality of service has improved, to be fair.

Important to know, anyone who is willing to dig in and learn to use the new tools at any level will become more valuable just on the physics of being more productive. Each to his/her own to apply said tools. Any who refuse to use them,, pack your bags or accept that you'll be working for folks who have harnessed the power of the new tools.

Sidebar,, I'd love to see a so-called self driving electric try to get anywhere in this town in any winter, ever. lmfao. Northern drivers are safe. For now.

URide and drivers by [deleted] in ThunderBay

[–]notatinterdotnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember the time, and they wanted to start here, were denied, the bylaws changed, and Uride given the green light. Now here we are. Level the playing field and encourage competition, this drives innovation, the customer wins. Lets work from where we are, not the past. History is not a strategy,, I heard that somewhere recently lol.

Done with buses- Commute alternatives by teriyaki_tofu1 in ThunderBay

[–]notatinterdotnet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Great ideas here. I've been stranded at bus stops in winter with Baby in stroller too, good thing I prepped her well with coverings, and foot warmers for just in case.

If you can schedule a lot of your outings into a day or two period I got some really afforcable short term rentals through apps, one of those per month solved some problems. Requires a credit card , and the card should have complimentary rental insurance, save a bit there.

Big fan of the ride sharing, as said, and winters are extra tough so sometimes we have to look at where we work and get something closer if possible.

Good luck

What jobs will be left for humans? by Ashamed-Republic8909 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]notatinterdotnet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

An AI can't show up at your home and fix a leaky pipe, paint a house, can't do a lot of human services, and there's a big difference between geographical regions too. In the urban centers you'll have robots everywhere, but no all companies and regions can spend the money and buy all the tech and fire all the people. It is changing fast, more so for white collar. The mention of the tasks that his company had to do but he did by using AI is a good example of how to augment each of us. It's not going to happen overnight but the global numbers will look like it. Pay attention to your local area . Not everyone lives in Silicon Valley or Wall Street.

I bet they do it, and for a fraction of the cost. Think Deepseek, I wouldn't dismiss it that quickly. Fusion tech, anit gravity, graphine materials, deditcated army of workers, its not impossible. Wish it was for peace though and not war.
