Yeah, that was a typo and my experience is limited towards the AWS side which is also facing this issue. But the numbers are there, some people have been at Amazon for a decade, so 20 months (if they had MY package of 2mos per year). Amazon was throwing everything at new hires, because they were making bank on their work.

They are getting severance when terminated, unless for cause. My comment was, this is how they avoid it by forcing people to quit.

Like many companies, they overhired in the last 4 years. Some of these people are due years of severance (my offer listed 2months for every year after 1 year), not to mention the vested stocks and other bonuses granted during this insane hot hire period.

So how do you remove people not loyal to the company? The most hated mandate ever. Amazon is a company that doesn’t need people in the office. This is nothing more than screwing people over.

This needs higher up. Lobbyists are a cancer

Ahem… Assembly is tired of being forgotten

I have 5 pairs of Oakley square wire sunglasses that I’ve owned for almost 3 decades. Bought most of them with my first paycheck. I just replace the ear socks and nose pieces, and one pair has replacement lenses. I have never owned any other pairs.

Did you try to reboot?

I remember when someone did this for Mac. this just ticks those boxes of someone who should be doing work, but doesn’t want to do work and feels like coding something to make you laugh. Heh

I saved them, adding death anniversary so I could remember them. Bit morbid but they meant a lot to me.

This is not the same thing. In your case, only you are responsible and accountable for your actions. So no one but you can do anything with real penality. Now, if the FTC banned you from growing your waistline (wrong govt dept, i know), then there would be a potential fiscal penalty and maybe even prison with enough violations.

The right sarcastic comment should have been: I have banned my cute dog from jumping on people when they come over. because we know that i’ll fuss at her, but never punish her harshly.

That is the phonetic spelling of how you’re supposed to say SUSE. It’s. SUSAhhh, like appaloosa. I know this because I watch that goofy video on youtube.

I’m more of a mountain guy so #4a522e or #3d7435 really do it for me. But hey, you do you.

Yeah, I think I’m talking about the purposeful legal jargon used to deceive or be arguable vague and 20 pages long for no reason but to hide that fact. I’m all about precision, but it needs to be something an average person would comprehend if we were to adopt this method.

Not an original idea by far, but I was chatting it up with a few friends recently about this and we thought a civic duty term made far more sense (think jury duty). So much needs to be fixed in the process, like the bill riders addons (a horrible scourge to our political system) and lobbyist (scum). But imagine you were picked (randomly) to serve for 3 year stints, with those getting picked for a 2nd and maybe even 3rd term, serving as some Senior politician. Clearly it needs much more thought, but far better potential because you have to participate and accountable.

Before you knock it down, think about the intelligence required here. Boebert is an absolute moron. Bills before the system need to be something the average person can understand (legal verbiage is such a pointless waste and almost unnecessary). You would need to participate in collaboration with others, understand how to be honest and forthcoming with your goals.

We can’t hold Politicians accountable (not the system today) and this could be an answer.

Don’t worry, every company was hiring anyone with DevOps on their resume just a couple years back. Now its AI. I’ve been on this train for far too long, and saw places that said they sold “X” and had no one on the team that even knew it. My last place asked me to demo a devops pipeline that was “zero touch” for developers (for a client) and were in shock with my demo “why don’t we sell this?!”… I’ve been here for 2 years, delivering this easy, low hanging fruit and you want to sell the concept as a service? Sigh….

I’ve added AI to my pipeline, for “code improvement analysis and quantitative risk”, it’s just as amazing as before. It’s just a shiny feature in the grand scheme of what AI could really do in real fields (medical, financials, etc), but it looks good on my resume and i’m getting hits on my linkedin, daily.

Lets just hope this time around, companies do some due diligence on hiring and we’re not where we are now, whenever the AI bubble pops. Hahahahahaha

Here in the US, I find most of my EU friends want to see the American Texan in the wild. Weird fetish, but hey, you do you.

The old school programmer right here! All we’re missing is someone typing git commit -am “updates and stuff”
