@oomfiebot reply to me meanie

Don't forget, you also need
- 5 years of experience in something that only existed for 3
- A Master's degree in bowling for a data analyst position
- To have never not worked a single day in your life, if you didn't have a job since birth, good luck pal
- To never use generative AI even though 90+% of ATS use generative AI to scan your CV for keywords and will immediately reject you if you don't have enough
- To compete with thousands of applicants that are all from the third world that aren't qualified under immigration laws or the actual job description
- To lie. Just lie.

Also the job salary, not listed, is under market by 20% and they only want someone within 1km from the office that's located in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and will not accept anyone not already local. Good luck!

@benis_redux Good idea, sometimes one can only handle so much

@benis_redux The funny thing is he was also correct that most urban centres are so full of NIMBYs that they will also achieve nothing. All of the stuff he wanted Seattle to do never happened. The monorail has 2 stops and the neighbourhood he lives in is only full of old rich people because they never built housing because the NIMBYs kept worrying about property values or some other BS

I respect both urbanites and ruralites, death to NIMBYs, and suburbanites aren't human.

@icst Profit seeking is the point of a for-profit company, and is their legal requirement if they are publicly traded. The easiest way to make money on something as essential as electricity simply is to make it more expensive.
Also trying to subsidise businesses to try to get them to move from New York to elsewhere is something everyone does and it barely works as a way to get business to move and an even worse way of raising money

@benis_redux Oh, that's a good point. That's basically what Stripe does to Visa and MasterCard.
The EU is trying to do that with rail systems (that are all state owned) to open up competition which I think is an actual good compromise, where the public own the physical infrastructure and anyone public or private can use said architecture for money

@benis_redux I agree on comparing them to ISPs, which in some places are usually one of maybe 2 or 3 providers when it comes to Internet due to the extreme costs associated with laying fibre and the other infrastructure. Some ISPs aren't monopolies, and those are usually the good ones

Payment processors are funny because they're another one of those natural monopolies like electricity, transportation, Internet, water that make no sense to be privatised but they are.
Something like SEPA would solve many of the problems that people have with companies like Visa, MasterCard, PayPal and Stripe

@benis_redux @sneeden This is also true there's a Cicero quote that says something like "no one ever lies on the Internet"

@benis_redux @sneeden this has yet to be proven false so I'll believe it
