Yep hate this. It never errs the other way. It’s always over optimistic at the time of sale. Sometimes it really creates a problem if speed is what you need and the whole reason you chose that product with those options.

Well logistics is a very complex arrangement. It’s possible that in your two scenarios, there are two sellers involved. The one who could get it to you fastest didn’t have any stock the first time you bought, so they weren’t an option. Then later they had some inventory come into stock, so they were an option the second time you bought. They can deliver to you so much faster than the other guy that they actually beat him despite his head start. Maybe they’re right around the corner from you, so to speak?

Amazing fulfills a minority of orders now. It’s all 3rd party sellers and your experience is contingent on them, their prices, their inventory, their seller rating, and many other variables in the system that we can’t even see. Fluctuations will happen and it’s probably not Bezos trolling just to get his jollies.

Is this all on a desktop/laptop computer? I’m on my phone 95% of the time but I see a lot of conversations on Lemmy about how to block ads or work around YouTube’s restrictions (or whatever) and they make it seem like people are on a desktop full time. I guess it’s just a little surprising to me if that’s the case.

My thought is that if you’re going to give money, don’t wait until you die. The earlier you help someone, the more of their life it can improve. Help your kid buy their first house or something. Then spend everything before you die.

BFD they are the metro, not Indeed

Are you scoffing at the idea of networking?

Yeah you just keep on making assumptions about what I’m saying. You won’t be happy until I’m wearing a KKK hood and waving a torch so you can shoot me.

Your hostile, continued pigeonholing and insistence on strictly defining the responses I’m allowed to give does not inspire me to continue further discussion with you. You are stuck on your narrative and will bend anything I say around it. Not interested.

Nice attempt to put those words in my mouth. Here’s what I think less racist than a human is: less racist than a human.

ADHD and Autism are real conditions.

Now answer every point I made.

Any comparison with how humans do with the same resumes in that article? Hm… nope.

The AI models are racist because they are trained on racist human generated decision sets. At least AI can be reprogrammed. Your own article concludes that this research should be used to improve AI.

Do you seriously believe that human review of a neurodivergent person’s strangely composed resume is going to be any better? Have you ever sat down with a stack of resumes in your life? Managers will toss them in seconds without even reading them in full - at least AI will do that.

I think you’re just using neurodivergence as a way to take your miserably uninformed assumptions about how AI application review works, and legitimize them as a discrimination issue.

Do you think there’s enough information in the application to decide? If that information is there, then you shouldn’t categorically assume AI is being racist against Einstein. Personal review of resumes is notoriously rife with bias - you actually might want to consider that AI could be an improvement. The guy with the ethnic name might get a high AI score and actually get a second look. You don’t know the AI performs worse than humans in the things you care about. Be real: you have no information about that at all.

The people downvoting you refuse to recognize one simple fact: employers are absolutely drowning in unqualified applications for jobs. People completely ignore the requirements and apply anyway, or even install browser extensions that automatically fill out applications by the dozen. But oh! How dare the employer do anything but read all 600 applications and carefully read between the lines to consider applicants who have no experience but want a ‘career change!’ How dare they try to bin the worst 300 automatically!

In Japan, the culture around this is very different. People don’t apply for things unless they are highly qualified and meet the specific requirements. People tend to switch jobs less often and are more intentional about it. In the US it’s “I’m unemployed, time to spam.” This is despite the fact that for ever and ever, experts have been telling people “send fewer applications to more targeted jobs.” I’m sure everyone thinks they are doing this, but believe me, as a collective - no one else is.

Yes, though no one is obligated to help with one. Employers generally want directly relevant experience.

A career change takes more than cold online applications. It’s a situation where you need to network and take advantage take of any ins you can.

He probably decided he didn’t have a way to cut those 45 degree angles and so there was no way to make those boards like the rest.

Somehow I’m also an idiot with finances. I guess the moral is I had a hands off dad who didn’t know shit.

This is what happens when you have a banker for a dad.

For years I just drew a line and then sawed down the middle of it. 🙄

If you already knew this expression, here is chapter two:

Account for the width of the blade.

Or they even say this is a sign of wear and means you should throw it out.

And because I enjoy sharing knowledge more than boasting I know more than others: the reason it moves is to account for the thickness of the metal hook itself.

It makes a difference if you are hooking it onto the back of something and measuring from there, OR butting it up onto something and measuring from there.

If you want accurate and consistent readings in both of these situations, the hook has to move. It basically pivots around the true point you’re measuring from.
