Got my job description apparently I'm supposed to assassinate Candice Owens on the orders of the Macrons

Bizarre

@bajax by that logic genocide is the best thing you can do since fewer people take less resources

Brb calling Netenyahu

@Junes
But how will I get my McDonald's delivered to me by someone who barely can make enough money to live while also not getting any of the benefits usually entitled to an employee

Checkmate rightoid

There is no ethical gooning under capitalism

@RustyCrab sure thing give me your address

Everything I post is absolutely sincere, except for when it isn't

I am trying to add a fedilab filter but it just does nothing

Ok cool thanks

@bajax Yes and it's the most mid thing in existence I got one for free once and that's the only time I'd ever have it

@mischievoustomato @karn

@karn @binkle there is an old adage in the financial industry that firms avoid hiring people convicted of insider trading only because they were so bad at hiding it they got caught

@karn @binkle insider trading has always been somewhat trivial it's just that with stocks and derivates you are usually required to report things if you have some financial tie to that (not that it matters), crypto and predictions markets make doing that kind of fraud effortless

@binkle @karn when you fire all of the people that do regulations turns out people just do whatever now

Unreal and Epics entire tech stack has such an astronomical level of technical debt I cannot even wrap my head around it. Even Epic Online Services, a relatively new project, contains unfixable bugs because instead of writing something simple they just shoved a billion black-box libraries inside of it and now they don't understand why it misbehaves on very basic use cases

@RustyCrab the entire tech industry is built on a mountain of sand and "someone else's problem"
Though that's also basically every industry when everything financialises

@grumbulon (this space intentionally left blank)

@binkle @Aether @YeetLibs It's partially that and also if you do more search results Google gets more advertising revenue and search growth makes the shareholders happy and makes line go up; it's like the greedy stereotype you'd find in something made for 5 year olds but it's done by an MBA that used to work for McKinsey (business model: Uber for evil people)

@gray @kirby because everyone else has it and nearly the entire world economy is hinged on this one extremely narrow aspect of things that even the most profitable company (Apple has a higher profit margin than even Nvidia) needs to shove it down everyone's throats so some 54 year-old working for Morgan Stanley in midtown Manhattan decides to invest more in Apple therefore making the line go up even harder (I say this as markets are having their worst week since the last time Donald Trump did something dumb)

TL;DR short term gains and marketability

@bajax not that far off apparently some crypto criminal (I repeat myself) was looking up wire fraud and how to launder money after committing wire fraud

True geniuses these people are
