It's because leadership is a heady cocktail of stupid and selfish.
I really want to stress stupid. That means they draw bad conclusions from facts.
Sometimes selfish is a factor. They have an obscure reason like "my share value goes up because we get a kickback from the city for staffing an office here". They don't care if it's bad for everyone else or the company long term. They'll get their money and then leave.
Pop!_os has been fine for me. I'm not a tinkerer. It's a machine for a web browser and video games.
Microsoft is probably salivating at the idea of being the only legal OS provider.
Furthermore, if you are being paid the same but your productivity goes up, and the owner keeps all the new profits, you're being robbed.
I have no regrets from setting my editor to save-on-blur
They're still there for, well, I can think of three reasons.
People vote for them. Organizing people to vote is hard for various reasons, but that mechanism is still present.
They're not murdered. Always an option, but certainly an escalation that doesn't scale well.
They're not expelled. Wikipedia says "In the entire history of the United States Congress, 21 members have been expelled: 15 from the Senate and six from the House of Representatives. Of these 21 members, 17 were expelled for supporting the Confederate States in 1861 and 1862. ", so that's not a commonly used option.
Personally I worry that if non-violent options fail, more people will see violence as an acceptable option.
Match group should be broken up.
You're doing more harm to the environment and shared spaces than the person riding the bus.
Misread the /s as is and was mildly confused.
Also yes, police have very poor or negative value for what they cost.
One of the reasons I like seeing smaller shows is sometimes you get more genuine interactions.
One time I saw Sincere Engineer and near the end someone in the audience shouted "play corn dog sonnet #7.
The singer was like "we played that one at the start "
The fan went, "I was late! I missed it!"
The singer asked the crowd, "Do you all want to hear it again?"
Everyone cheered, so they played it again.
I remember okcupid had a question (back when their system was based on answering questions) that asked "is it possible for a partner to be too ambitious?"
I was like "clearly some of you assholes never read Macbeth".
Also, the CEO of my old job was on the dating apps at the same time as me. Despite us being about the same age, I'm confident very few people would match with both of us. "Never worked, just grad school and CEO founder" seekers don't also seek me.
There's also the class of comments that explain strange business decisions.
# Product guy said to return January 1st if the user doesn't have a birthday on recordKind of arbitrary but someone with decision making power decreed it.
