    Well thanks for the mystery. Terms with what? Isreali funding? Massive gamehouses fucking over employees? Global financial instability? Bizzare “to ai” or “not to ai”

    Question is loving rent free in my fucking broke ass brain

      At first I assumed you hadn’t read the article and I almost mocked you for it. Then I decided to read the article first, and learned that the information is not in the article.

          Why are people always so shocked at honesty on the internet?

          That person doesn’t know us and shouldn’t care what we think. So they can be honest they almost did something stupid.

          Asking if they really admitted to almost doing something stupid is a million times dumber. Did you really need to ask to be sure, or did you just get giddy because you felt smarter?

          You’re likely not smarter, just too stubborn to admit under any conditions you almost made a poor choice so now you want to pile on the person who admitted it…

          Which is why I’m bothering to make this comment:

          You’re perpetuating a giant social issue. Owning up to real or even almost poor decisions is something that everyone should feel comfortable admitting. There is nothing wrong with that and sharing it allows the group to learn from the experience.

          And if society at large is “the group” we sure as shit need to start trying something besides blond confidence and a refusal to admit we’re not perfect.

          They were going to but did not. I’ll defend the people who don’t though: most articles are shit and filled with tons of rambling contextual nonsense just to arbitrarily extend their length. They’re also often not the original source of the content, and trying to find the original is a pain in the dick because 90% of the links just link back to their own site, if there even is a link to the original at all. That’s why I often add synopses to posts but I wish the people who posted them would add them instead…

              I never really understood why people feel the need to act like that towards one another online. Mocking each other, being sarcastic, name-calling and whatnot.

              I say, let’s act towards each other like we would act towards another person on the bus, at work. People we don’t normally talk to or know well, but who we come across. I think most of us wouldn’t talk like that towards strangers IRL. Or at least I should hope not.

              If we can be kind when anonymous IRL, we can be kind online I’m the same way. I’d say that’s worth striving for.

      That’s just it, he posted this dribble on his LinkedIn; it’s where “professionals” can vaguepost about dissatisfaction and anger without sounding mad as hell.

      He needs another job, so he can’t go apeshit. Wish he would though… that’d be fun to read lol
