The Biden Admin just announced an executive order removing de minimis tax protections from large companies trying to exploit it to import large quantities of product, which is going to take a bite out of Shein and Temu’s business models.
He said in the article:
When hiring someone new, companies are forced to play in the open market, competing for top talent. But internally, they create opaque and informationally asymmetric compensation structures designed to minimize growth for existing employees to save the company’s bottom line.
So yes, this is totally just how many (most) companies are run. I work in healthcare and have faced similar issues, where someone I hired as a new grad who accumulated 5 years of experience with me would be making $20K less than someone I just hired who had 5 years of experience somewhere else. I always had some words for anyone who tried to talk to me about retention rates
Lmao understood
If you took a look at geologic time and understood it, you would be frightened with how quickly average temperatures worldwide have been increasing, which is how I know you’re full of shit and know nothing about geologic time
At the beginning of August, you could get 84 rubles for $1, today you can get 91 rubles for $1. It’s certainly not “cratering” per that hyperbolic headline, but it’s not an insignificant change, especially since the exchange rate had otherwise been on a downward trend since April.
“BMW sold more EVs in Europe than Tesla last month, the first month any company beat Tesla.”

I’d like to echo everything Cagi said, and add that it’s genuinely possible this conversation with your brother was more of a “they finally got the diagnosis,” sort of conversation rather than a revelation for your brother, because everyone probably already suspected you have autism. It sounds like your mother is happy that you have clarity on this and wanted to share your good news.
If I tell my mother something, it’s free game for her to tell anyone she knows about it, because she wants to tell other people what’s happening with her children. If I don’t want her sharing something about me, I could ask her explicitly not to share, and she won’t.
Regarding your concern that your brother is going to think you’re no longer socializing with neurotypical people, you’re waaay overthinking that. You can call up your brother at any time to talk to him if you want to. Next time you want to go visit, almost guaranteed his door will be open for you and nothing will have changed.
Yeah, there are no other countries pumping government money into these industries /wink

Especially now that a lot of countries are starting to notice the drain on energy networks.
Lmao
But I doubt they’re really “struggling”.
You don’t have to sit there and imagine things, because they are a publicly traded company…
It’s clear Musk’s politics have turned off a ton of potential customers worldwide. Tesla sales are falling off, while eg the Hyundai Ioniq is setting sales records in the US
Why are you “imagining” you know the answer to this question lmao
Tons of oil compared to what

Who are you to prevent cockroaches from sharing your kitchen? They’re part of this earth too. Why are you complicit in cockroach genocide?
This is called a “false choice,” or “false dilemma”
Cool, so anyone who eats meat should be totally ok with eating whales. Thanks for clarifying that, we’ll stop trying to get people to stop eating whales now thanks to your advice.

This was a category 1 hurricane, by no means a once in a century event
