The devil’s creation.
No excuse was given. I don’t think you comprehended my comment. I literally said I was not talking about the very people you mentioned. I also said their care should not be contingent on the work and that my concern was making sure of that when changes are made.

If they are actually exploiting people… I know this sounds like exploitation but this issue is pretty complex and there may actually be no “jobs” for a lot of differently abled people if there isn’t a carve out for certain scenarios. I say jobs in quotes because there are some places that are more or less daycares where adults of certain ability levels can go to work and do end up making less than minimum wage. But they are doing so because they are receiving a level of care and supervision at the same time. These are people who you could not just teach a job and leave to their own devices for any amount of time without endangering them. But they are capable enough to complete certain tasks. I have known adult aged people who’s elderly parents would not know what to do if they had to care for them every day all day.
That said, why in our society are some people put in this situation where the only thing they can do with their adult child is send them off to a menial job for daycare? It’s great that some people get the option to work, but they should also be able to receive care and not have to work menial jobs for sub minimum wages.
Like I said, the whole thing is way more complex than the no nonsense sound bite. If she were to just waive a regulatory hand and eliminate this exemption, without making more comprehensive changes, it might put some families in a very tough position. Having to suddenly pay for daycare for adults who previously were earning some amount of money.
But the places I’m talking about are usually non-profits employing these people to do work for other for profit businesses. It’s not the person at your local movie theater or grocery store working mostly independently and getting paid less than everyone else.
In my head this movie was made entirely because someone noticed the vague resemblance between Peter Dinklage and Josh Brolin.
The only side I’m going to come down on is that a lot of the home assistant maintainer community have a serious attitude problem.
They want to outwardly act as if they want to build a user friendly home automation system for all. But there’s a lot of self important snark in the forums when devs cause problems and users complain. They still act as if they are building this software for free and if anyone doesn’t like how they are doing things they can sod off. But now they have a decent sized paid staff and a mission statement to make the software for every day users.
Their documentation also leaves a lot to be desired and they don’t seem to have any procedures in place for getting it updated before breaking changes.
Only effective if this doesn’t placate the regulators and Congress and something is actually done.
This has all happened before and it will all happen again. This is what it looks like when a social media company tries to head off an incoming regulatory push.
Trying to avoid regulations of course.
Amazon had never given a shit about their corporate workers. They barely treat them better than the warehouse side. Don’t get cancer or they’ll put you in performance review. They have a planned turnover rate as well.
This is just them doing layoffs without regulatory oversight or severance.
Yes, there is. Even Xitter quickly changed their LLM to point to a government website whenever voting questions were asked so they have no liability.
I have tried them all, it’s Navidrome. It’s actually less resources for me to run 4 instances of Navidrome for my different users than it is to use any of the other servers that allow for separate user libraries. Just make sure you alter the folder scan interval, it’s stupidly frequent by default.
That’s because ALDI doesn’t cushion cost increases or sell loss leaders. If eggs shoot up in price 400% they immediately raise the price to match. Most grocery stores will try to eat at least some of that cost for some time hoping it will go down before they have to raise even further. That kind of pricing model means they need much larger margins on all their other products to afford that. Same way they sell milk and rotisserie chickens at a loss to get people in the store.
ALDI does not play those games and keeps their margins more consistent but their prices are more susceptible to spikes in costs.
The OLPC reborn. You can probably by one for a child in a developing nation for $1 while purchasing one for $300 for yourself.
It also sounds like the cost shock set in at some point and the vision was scaled back.
She spent thousands of dollars on a panic attack and disappointment.
Now is the perfect time to raise alarms loudly and publicly so they understand how upset people will be before investing.
Part of parenting is censoring the world for your child’s developing brain.
