We need ice cream truck reform first. The damn things never stay still long enough for me to catch them

Apparently some of us “dril baby drill” and we’ll make those profits when we get there

Wow, wasn’t it just last year when they took the 1.5° target off life support and called it?

Now the 2° is dead? Are we killing off 2.5° by summer?

Bezos would still be subject tot he same import tariffs, the same Customs issues.

The way I read it is they just created a huge new workload for Customs without funding the resources to do it. Unless we make huge changes to how sites like Amazon works, now Customs needs to have an input in every one of the millions of packages directly sent from over seas every day.

USPS is smart to say there’s no way to make it work all of the sudden, but it ought to affect everyone.

….. I see a more recent post that some form of sanity prevailed. If we’re going to instigate trade wars out of spite, let’s at least have a transition where we can try to figure out how to make it work

How did Bezos let this happen? Didn’t he buy his way into the administration for reasons?

If hiring personnel are dictated to hire more on dei then on merit

Then they duck and should be replaced

nature. By its nature, considering DEI aspects in hiring can potentially taint the criteria by which candidates are selected.

Still an organizational problem if people are hired without regard to merit. In fact that’s the whole reason it’s worth having a DEI focus : you can’t just hire on demographics and it takes a bit more work to hire on merit while trying to reduce inequity.

If you see people hired solely on demographics, either your impression s wrong or the hiring manager sucks

The comparison is more like a kick in the balls vs tab on the shoulder. Either might hurt but they are not the same

One of these days I hope to find out. Several times Ive had internal conversations debating whether it’s reasonable to organize a trip around beer
