That just means the process has not been adequately broken down into discrete tasks. If this happens you need more consultants to train your people better. Or they're untrainable and they need to be fired and replaced with cheaper and more pliable immigrants.
Anti intellectualism on display, folks. Get a load of the science denier. Please cite studies that refute the premise. Some scientists found an interesting correlation, published it, and all you've got is an emotional response because the conclusions make you uncomfortable? And you attempt to shift the blame on another societal group? Isn't that exactly what we criticize anti intellectuals for doing when confronted with inconvenient truths?
Yeah, well they were working class. What we in America call "deplorables". Yes, when they die it is funny. Deal with it. These are the people who gave us the nightmare called Trump. Humor is how we deal with creeping fascism that threatens the whole world.
Yeah, but if you get the right process, you don't need competent people. You can just hire H1Bs off the boat and as long as they follow the process, they produce the same results as the expensive workers. Why spend more?
Did you just construct a gigantic strawman argument that says that anyone who is in favor of less government must support China stealing IP? Seriously? Please - for the love of God, please stop that. Argue in good faith, not in ridiculous exaggerations.
I feel like you are arguing against what you imagine conservatives are saying. I'm so confused by your comment. Or, to put it a better way, you're arguing against what conservatives would have to say in order for your silly rhetoric to be taken seriously. Either way, it's strawmen all the way down. I remember hearing of studies (which I really need to chase down, if anyone has the reference I'd appreciate it) in which self-described "liberals" (or progressives) and conservatives were asked to describe how the other side would think of the issues. The conservatives proved to be pretty good at describing the leftists' positions, while the leftists were much worse at characterizing what their ideological opponents thought.
Obviously you have never had a shitty low level job before. They want you there rain or shine and there are penalties for absenteeism - in the database there are no fields for excuses. Miss work and you get written up and miss it again and you get fired. You've got to save those write-ups for the critical times, like when you're sick or your kid has a school concert. Can't waste them on a silly storm which will pass in an hour anyway.
Wow. That guy is just completely ignoring his own role in creating the situation. Shocking. The rot is far, far worse than I ever expected. If the media stopped lying, nobody would have any ammunition to use against them. But they're so wed to their role as biased advocates that they can't see lying is wrong. This is so, so terrible for our Republic. How did it come to this?
I love how you dismiss anyone who comes to a different conclusion as you as "programmed" and "deceived." As if there is only one set of values: your own and everyone else is factually wrong. You people despise our Constitution, especially the First and boy do you hate the Second. Arguing in its favor is fundamentally a bad faith argument, like an American racist (but I repeat myself) pretending to care about black on black violence and using that to make a point. I also love experiencing your contempt calling me a peon. Boy I wonder why nobody is voting for you!
So playing games while you're worried takes your mind off things? Well gosh. Whoda thunk it? It's almost as if for some people, that's the whole point of video games, avoiding a shitty life by achieving flow in another world where their lives don't suck. I'm glad valuable grant money was spent on such an unexpected outcome that will certainly pave the way for exciting developments. Hey, look at it this way: these results are likely replicable, unlike most of the rest of the "science" produced by the humanities.
Well, journalists dropped the "objective teller of truth" thing decades ago. Now they are partisans who actively take sides and attempt to influence events in their favor. It's sad, but what can we do about it? When you mention this to them, they get ferociously angry and insist that staying objective is the work of the white oppressors (like Musk).
In America, such jobs are not subject to merit based hiring as that has a disparate impact on marginalized communities. Frankly the entire idea stinks of racism and is nothing but a dog whistle these days.
Come off it, Leftists don't believe in free speech and association. They are front and center when it comes to censorship and silencing those with whom they disagree. Despite being called "conservative", people on the right tend to value free expression for all, even when it involves ideas that they don't agree with. They find the concepts of censorship, content moderation and banning people to be abhorrent concepts, and won't even subject their opponents to such things.
Meanwhile, it's the so-called "tolerant" leftists that engage in censorship, whether it's overt censorship through the deletion of content and banning of users/customers, or whether it's causing indirect self-censorship through threats of harm to the reputations or bodies of anyone they disagree with.
It isn't right wingers who want to limit what people can express thanks to "political correctness". It isn't right wingers who want to block content they dislike. It isn't right wingers who want to ban users who they disagree with. It's leftists who engage in such behavior.
The political right promotes free and open discussion of all ideas. The political left tries to shut down all expression that doesn't conform to their very narrow world view and narrative.
The Patriot Act wasn't passed by the Right, it was passed by neo-conserative warmongers. The Left has never believed in the Constitution and it is arguing in bad faith to maintain otherwise. They believe it to be an outdated racist document written by white men. How would they ever defend it? An act of utter cynicism, like a Christian quoting the Koran to try and stop terrorists.
Tell you what, go to Google and let's see you peddle that line of filth about women being more neurotic, and see how long it takes you to be escorted to the door by security and permanently blacklisted from the industry.
And then those white blue collar racist deplorables turned around and voted for Trump. They swung the election to him. Makes you wish for another Vietnam, doesn't it?
When people hear the word nationalism, it has the word "white" in front of it. That's why it's so frightening when you and Trump use it. It's fascist dog whistling.
You are quoting the same personality traits James Damore did on the anti-diversity screed that got him fired from Google. Especially the "neurotocism" part. Are you aware of that, or...?
They're not safety nets. With a safety net, when you walk the tightrope and fall off, the net is there to catch you. That's not what welfare is.
The whole idea of the safety net is that you get back up on the tightrope and try again. I can't emphasize this enough. People on welfare just fall into the net, never try to leave, and start raising their families while still on the net. Imagine a circus where the performer never leaves the net after falling off, and you get the idea.
Moreover welfare recipients are also voters. They will always vote for more money for themselves. This is a documented bug in democracy, and if their numbers grow they will bring down our system.
Proud of? The country that invented Jim Crow? How are you people proud of anything? You used nuclear weapons, for fucks sake. The sooner the USA falls the better for the whole world.
You're making no difference between the GOP establishment and conservative voters. The GOPe is part of the DC system. They have far more in common with their Democrat and deep state allies than they do conservative voters. They all agree we Americans are deplorable morons who deserve to have our shit wrecked. That's why nobody wanted to repeal ACA, it would take control away from the government, an outcome that must be avoided at all costs.

And as a result it gets light at 430am in the summer. You're not even up at 6am and it is full daylight outside.

Uh, when you play street fighter, you don't actually pretend you're an actual street fighter. I think my point went completely over your head.

How did this racist "yellow peril" bullshit get modded up?

Americans aren't patriotic like that any more. Patriotism is equivalent to bigotry.

Chanting "made in the USA" is pure Trumpism. WTF? How did this become acceptable? How are Americans holding themselves up over indigenous cultures?

Why would we want to help the working class? Did we forget they're deplorable racists? They didn't vote for you and now you're going to reward them?
