I just don’t buy it. I’ve worked at plenty of companies and I never saw it work that way. Sure, I’ve seen “we have to interview more candidates” or “we need to write our job applications to be more inclusive”, but I never saw “we need to hire the lessor candidate because they’re x”.

In my experience when someone is whining that they lost a possible job to a “DEI hire”, they’re usually just butthurt that someone was better than them.

I’d love to hear a coherent reason backed by facts and evidence about why DEI is bad?

Whenever someone tells me they don’t like DEI and I ask why, it’s always some unhinged spiel about women and immigrants taking their jobs.

This is such a crazy assertion. I know plenty of democrats who own guns. They just generally don’t make it their personality.

It also ignores the massive arms difference between a government of today and its citizens vs when the constitution was written.

Lots of change has happened in the US as the result of protests that go violent, but none have ever succeeded using guns.

On the flip side, I feel like his daughter would appreciate it.

Took a bit to make Gemini understand who I was talking about but this was it’s first result

Sharp wit, keenest eye, Tech truths told with soothing voice, Brownlee’s insights reign.

I don’t have a dog in this fight, but just to play devil’s advocate the advertisers too could have been losing money and be happy it was brought to light?

If you’re looking for a similar class EV, I just got the mach-e and I love it.

There was something about the i4 I just didn’t like. I think it was how it felt kind of like an m3 to me. In the sense that if all you care about is going fast, then it’s a great car, but it’s not the luxury of the 5 or 7 series, which is what I think of when I think of BMW.

I’m too old for a car like that, and don’t drive enough to justify the i5 price, so I went economical (in comparison at least) with the mach-e. It’s fun to drive, has enough gitty-up-and-go for me, and it’s comfortable.

Though I got reeeeeeally close to saying fuck it and getting the i5.

Because it’s not that easy. Batteries are big, people want 250+ miles on a charge and battery tech isn’t there for standard sedans and smaller.

I just went through this and ended up with the mach-e (which I’m very happy with) but it still weighs about as much as my minivan (almost 5000lbs).

I just got the Ford Mach-e last weekend and I’m super happy with it.

As someone who has only been training for a couple years, that’s the point, no? Martial Arts is a self defense. The first lesson is always de-escalation and then removing yourself from the situation.

Learning foreign languages can definitely be a hobby.

I don’t know. I find it to be a helpful tool. There’s definitely times it’s wrong (very very wrong sometimes) and there’s sometimes it’s right. It’s up to the user to figure that out.

Maybe I’m old and cynical, but I don’t take anything I read on the Internet, especially something automatically generated, at face value. It’s just another tool I could use to help get to the answer I’m looking for.

If you’re using AI verbatim without looking up answers and verifying results, then that’s on you.

When you Google something, do you take the first result and just assume it’s fact? You shouldn’t for AI either.

For future reference, double space at the end of a line to start a new line, double enter to skip a line.

Maybe you just need a Snickers?

Can’t figure out if this is a joke or serious, so just in case, you might want to look up what happened to the Library of Alexandria.

They’re not hurting the people they need to be hurting.

These aren’t regular people, these are navy soldiers on a high tech warship, I have to imagine their IT would know how to find rogue wifi APs.

You could easily scan for hidden SSIDs. It might not show up in your phone’s wifi list, but that’s by design. The traffic is still there and discoverable. Even with an app like WiFiman (made by Ubiquiti).
