I said exactly that a few days ago. Got downvoted nicely, hope you have better luck.

Your comment made me feel a little more sane.

Excel has most businesses in a headlock. Can’t see why anyone else pays for M$. I have Office, but it’s a permanent license from my last job. When I upgrade, say bye bye.

Excel is the deal breaker on that. My last company was all Google products and auth, but I still had to buy Excel for the accounting and HR teams.

Unanimous?! Makes you wonder what they know that we might not.

Nah. I built the onboarding (IT working with HR) at my last two jobs. It’s a complex mess, very hard to get right, non-stop tweaking.

Told the dude that hired me today what a dream Lowe’s onboarding was. “Yeah. It was a clusterfuck a few years ago, they refined it down.” They went from 100 redundant questions on the app to 2. (It had been a stupid personality profile trap.)

Can’t speak to other places, but their managers are held to turnover metrics (I’m told). Hiring dumb assess and they keep leaving or getting fired, that’s on you. I like that idea. We shall see how it goes!

Me too, and that’s why I just signed onto to Lowe’s for a 75% pay cut. The onboarding process was a dream. I know, I built the onboarding at my last two jobs.

Done with all the bullshit. Dude wants 60 bags of mulch in his truck? I’m on it.

Liberals: Tax it!

Also Liberals: What about the poor people!

Lemmy tends to think everything is free, has no clue about real-world costs.

Just NOW swapped a failed micro cord, charging only. Never had USB-C fail me. Not that it can’t, but it’s always been far more reliable.

Old cable guy here. The cost is in laying the lines. That cost is astronomical. AT&T did the math, said, “Fuck it. Not worth it.”

Call 'em evil, but they’re not stupid.

Anyone notice Trump clearly didn’t write that, because it’s clearly written? Remember how bugfuck he was getting over the last year and how we rarely see that anymore?

Just how bugfuck is he now and who’s controlling him?

LOL my god, it’s really that in-your-face blatant?!

My own post:

Next time you want to bitch about everything Trump taking legal years:

My case is about 5 years old now, I have been going through the legal process the whole time I’ve been working on this. I have finally been found guilty and sentenced, and I’m going away next month.

That is genius, not seeing any downsides.

No one going to comment the Trump absolutely did not write that? Read it; completely coherent, proper English, all that.

True, but engagement isn’t gamified here.

Poor security on the Azure endpoint. Sounds like people running their own servers.

“Flood the zone with bullshit” can work for both sides.

Y’all have the business comprehension of a 6th grader. Lemmy thinks the CEO is the manager at their fast food job.

The CEO is hired, and fired, by the board of directors. Sometimes they’re hired to do unpopular shit, and take the blame. Sometimes the board insists they do stupid shit, and take the blame if it doesn’t work.

If you want to jump off that plane without negotiating a parachute? Go for it.

I would never have expected it to run, be shocked if it did. You use AI to get over humps, get new ideas and approaches. It’s excellent for time saving in those cases.

AI isn’t ready to replace coders, but it’s quickly going to make a dent on the numbers needed.
