Then the OP is pointless. It speaks to employee quality. If that isn't in any way useful in the context, the question is dumb. It wouldn't matter how motivated that employee was, so why mention it.

So either quality counts, or layoffs are entirely based on luck, often firing the best of them all. Sounds like you are coping. Quality almost always matters. And the smallest things can save your ass.

Even in a game with odds as bad as the lottery, you still have to play it to win.

In your educated opinion, what are layoffs based on? Can't be random. So what? Race? Gender? Age? Everything but performance? Because who cares about performance. Just fire someone, Fred. Anyone.

Another moron-filter. People complain about simple gestures that could potentially help humanity in a small way. We've always had morons. We seem to reach a critical mass, though. The real issue if overpopulation: more morons in general.

It's fine that those people exist, but they shouldn't be allowed to reproduce or teach.

Those caps are fine. Drinking from plastic bottles is stupid enough. Having them at all was a huge step back.

What a world.

Dreh die Antenne nach links, ich krieg nur rauschen hier unten.

It would be white noise, “weißes rauschen”, but nobody ever said the “white” part.

It is just mentioned. Just a description of what happened. What's wrong about saying it was a white male when it was a white male? Why jump to the opinion that mentioning the gender or complexion has any other purpose than being descriptive?

Possibly because many users coming to Lemmy are pissed off by something. It's not a platform for fun users, but for grumpy old cats wanting their unachievable utopian discussion forum, where all behave the same as they do. ;)

Criticise lemmy and prepare for downvotes deluxe.

It is not really an alternative. So many people here complaining about quality, and the constant desire for this not to become the new Reddit.

But that's exactly what it needs to become. A place where mindless users can post the same silly crap every day, without getting shit for it. And without being rattled by entitled mods that feel they should be compensated for doing what they want to do.

Let communities talk and mods just be mods, not critics.

Are they? Do they even have a linux client yet? I'd say they are second class citizens at best.

Some would say that most of the spending is based on greed. Individual salaries doubled to tripled in the last decade, with their head earning three quarters of a million now.

It was a tenth 15 years ago.

They started out right, like they all do. Then personal money catches up.

None of that makes sense.
