Is that what banks are for? Savings account interest rates at historic lows of .4%, which doesn't even outpace inflation. We're essentially paying them to spend our money.
You could get a HYSA for 3%. Income is taxed, interest rates are variable. Not really many good options.
You know what eliminates crime way better than cameras? Eliminating poverty.
Bad day to be a hotdog, good day to be a hot dog.
I look at it this way: true or false, something like this happens every day. I'm lucky enough to know an entire community of people who would do something like this, and I doubt they'd all post it on the Internet, so I accept this as the placeholder.
Copilot isn't an LLM. It's just an application layer that utilizes other 3rd party LLMs like gpt. I think it's shit because it's usually a few versions behind and they put guard rails and external data filtering on their application layer.
Walmart and Target are just as bad as Amazon. Bad examples. I'm from the US and haven't used Amazon in 2 years. I just search for other online retailers and I've always been able to find what I'm looking for at a price less or equal to what I'd pay Amazon. I don't get the pro-Amazon arguments.
What do you mean? In the US, if you try to overthrow the government and injured/kill police officers you get a pardon. If you swindle working class Americans out of billions of dollars and save a million of that for a bribe, you get a pardon. This is how things work.
They're unconfigured PoS systems. Look at all the different PoS solutions out there. You never know where or when to tap your credit card, hit yes before or after the transaction is initiated. It's generally smaller vendors not configuring non-out-of-the-box solutions. Simple as that.
Europeans coming to America and not tipping isn't going to breed a crisis, it's going to breed animosity towards Europeans from the service workers.
I'm not saying they couldn't, I'm saying they won't. You're happy to patronize those locations and give the owners $8/drink but not pay the staff.
Fuck you, friend.
I wouldn't blame them after these reports. Need to hold rude Europeans accountable.
It's built into the price of the meal. It's more systemic than making the customer pay the wait staff. The profit margins on food are razor-thin, despite "offloading" wait staff salary and no one in the restaurant getting healthcare. If you're not going to tip, then don't go out to eat. Going out and not tipping exclusively hurts the staff.
