Yeah but how is that "the opposite" of data science? There's physics and biology and chemistry in there. But I agree she probably means her major, but it's pretty vague language.

I took terrible joy in explaining to my niece that soul sucking jobs pay more, and feel good jobs pay less, because people will take pay cut to not stare into the abyss.

Unless you're in the tech industry, where the worst and most soul-sucking jobs also pay the least.

Thesaurus posted:Yup. Otherwise hard to take two year-long "sabbaticals" by age 24. I am sort of torn on this case because on the one hand they're very dumb, but on the other I must note that amazon has a reputation as a unique, especially nightmarish hell for people working for them at every level, even senior management. It's like the company is optimized for employee suffering.

My GWM story is I went to Disney World for free last year for two days. My sister's friend's brother works for Disney, and they can bring three guests in on their free pass. Very convenient for us.

RIP to the biggest Metaverse supporter. Chapek had originally said he wanted roughly 1/3 of Disney's content to be Metaverse related by 2030. https://twitter.com/WSJ/status/1640537971748118529

Chapek is widely seen as a bit of a disaster, both by employees inside the company and investors. Basically Iger came back to calm poo poo down and try and get things back on an even keel before handing off to someone who hopefully won't gently caress it up this time.

They also fired their head of post production & VFX, Victoria Alonso, who everyone thought was mental. She had a "finals song" she made everyone sing when VFX finaled a shot. Of course, cue eveyone I know (that works in VFX) singing the song when the news that she was shitcanned broke.

The time share conversation is very time appropriate as I'm in Cancun at a Westin property and briefly sat down with our concierge to get our complimentary gift (a bag and free drinks) for him to try to presell us to schedule a 90 minute presentation that paid for our last night. I found that saying "I don't put a high value on free money" short circuited their objection training. Lastly saying "it's only 90 minutes, but it's going to ruin my day" helped too. Self talk, but so glad I'm in a place where the marginal gifts of sitting through that poo poo mean nothing to me compared to passing out near the pool.

So there was some story in some rag about how Amazon might be interested in buying AMC. That story alone didn't seem very well-sourced (like, it still called Jeff Bezos the Amazon CEO). However, it caused the AMC stock price to jump, which allowed a lot of more legitimate outlets to start reporting that the stock was rising because of that rumor. Thus more people heard the rumor, and now the perpetual bagholders are trying to work the Amazon purchase into their theory of how the MOASS will happen (despite the two things being mutually exclusive). https://twitter.com/POTATO_INMYASS/status/1640785425865252871?s=20 LanceHunter fucked around with this message at 20:48 on Mar 28, 2023 |

That guy definitely knew he was buying a stolen Hellcat for $26K. He just didn't realize how bad of a thief the seller was.

Not creatively locking shots until the very last minute. Not locking the edit until the very last minute, thus adding new shots without enough time to finish them properly. They were doing additional photography for Ant Man 3 while the film was on the sound mix stage, which is something you usualll wait to do until your VFX are almost all finished, not while you're still shooting the fuckin film.
