I genuinely believe it's impossible to become a billionaire and continue to be a decent human being, like the steps an individual has to take to get to that point requires doing some deeply immoral things. So I wouldn't hold my breath on this.

Cuban seems to be in the news for good stuff at least. Saw in the news today he has contributed towards Cheap insulin + huge bonuses for all his maverick staff after selling the team, I guess. But you’re likely correct way more often than not

How many of you make $200k or more?

To IT goons, how much do you make and how much does IT pay? Most of the IT folks I know have a wide range of incomes and work titles that seem almost completely unrelated to the scope and difficulty of their work responsibilities.

When I was at either of my former corporate law gigs, pretty much everyone I dealt with in IT made over 200k each, from contractors to the in house.... god its been too long since I did Agile so I forgot their titles... Product Owners + Conductors?

Basically everyone involved made crazy money. Brokest dudes int he room were the Scrum Masters and they made mid 100s. Seemed like a really safe field to make a good living.

I’m always on call. I can easily not be but I need/enjoy money. Luckily I can always point to the courts for my pushback - not much I can do at 9:45 pm but hey, I’m here.

Ironically i quit the big jobs as corporate counsel because that works trash, and being able to fire clients is amazing.

I’m watching the last episode and it’s so bad.


A few episodes ago: “I like he’s a firefighter. They’re honorable and truthful” the dialogue is so bad

The dialogue is hilariously bad and thank you for reminding me of this exchange.

The “badass”quote of “ASSUMPTIONS KILL!!” Is so cringe but I keep. Watching. The. Stupid. Show. So I’m part of the problem.

These people don’t just spring from the loving ether, you have to actually have quality candidates at local and state levels to have a chance in hell of getting what you want.

Lot of good it’ll do to support local candidates (which I do anyway) when the democrat overloads decide to roll with Biden anyway because “it’s just a speech impediment!”

Edit

Neil Armbong posted:

I think the DNC not actively working against progressives would be a start. They can't weed out good candidates that are a scooch further left than they'd like to uplift empty suits like mayor pete and gavin loving newsom. The national and state parties are 100% responsible for their bench lacking quality candidates.

This nailed it, imo

I agreed with you until you edited this to be snarkier, and the speech impediment thing is a dumb and lazy response to things that are a reasonable concern so I’ll own that. I’m not happy that he’s the candidate either. I’m also bringing feelings I have about other online spaces that seem to treat his less-than-stellar health with a sort of sick glee, so I’m overreacting when it’s brought up here.

Okay that’s more fair. I’ve just run into too many “actually Biden and Kamala are two of the best leaders we’ve EVER had” rhetoric and I got trigger happy. Me scuzi

A second trump presidency validates openly attempting a coup, and could be the last time we elect anyone for anything. I'm sufficiently convinced that that's a nonzero risk with Trump (like, maybe not a "high likelihood" but I actually think it's on the table, if you'd asked me six years ago I'd have said lol no way) that it's Biden 100%. I genuinely don't care that Biden's brain is melting, because as toxic and ineffectual and lame and even genocide-supporting as the democratic party is, it's not actively attempting to turn american democracy into russian-style strong man eternal "elected" dictatorship.

I've never been a member of the democratic party and I'll vote for someone else in the primary (I just sent in my "please let me vote in the dem primary this year even though I'm not a registered dem" card) but biden will be the nominee and I'll vote for him and encourage everyone else to as well. It's less of a vote for biden or even a vote against trump, and more of a vote for getting to keep voting in the future.

e. inflation is in fact falling and has been for months though, including on food and rent and transportation. That doesn't mean rent prices are going down, but the "inflation is out of control" line is republican party "keep saying it so people believe it" fabrication that flies in the face of the actual economic data.

this is the right thread to follow for actual economic news with no tweets allowed, and not in a politics forum. It's as close to real a data-driven information channel about the economy as I've found and more people should participate.

Yeah, youre exactly right on the money here. Im just bitching at the liver and onions the democrats are giving me

They'll figure it out eventually but its still not a good look for the finished product.

Anytime you end up with copious rewrites, reshoots and writers / directors are making GBS threads bricks you're in for a bad outcome see: all of marvel and star wars for like 6 years now.

Yeah, it’s true. Whenever I hear about a movie being reshot or whatnot, I automatically write it off.

My point was Vin basically owns the rights to F+F, and his ego is insane. He won’t do a movie without himself

It's too bad The Witcher sucked rear end so much he didn't want to do it anymore

Odd way to recap what happened there but ultimately Witcher wasn’t very good - so you’re not wrong - and the adaptations for film are what caused the rift between him and the producer so I get it.
