For all the talk about the Dems being broke I just don't believe it:

When something matters the Dems spend the money. On the flip side the Republicans could be spending pennies to save like 5 House Seats, completely stop the momentum of the left, and embarrass the fuck out a new State Dem government. But nope! Can't do shit about that!
 
Yeah bro they all want 5-10 years of experience, they’re not hiring new grads. Tech is THE raped industry this last couple of years.

I know personally know people who have switched careers to cybersecurity in the last 3 years or so with little to no experience, because that's how insane the demand is. Two friends of mine have come out of 1+ years of unemployment to get cybersecurity jobs. If you're graduating school right now with a degree in cybersecurity, put your intern hours in, and can't even get a job as an entry-level sales associate, that's a you problem, because this is a hot job market right now.
 
I fully believe trump is dieing & cashing in for safety .
So long as he makes it to Jan 21, 2027.
Do we know if Democrats are secretly telling whoever is in charge of Iran to not make a deal to further drive up gas prices?
The only thing that would be less surprising than Democrats violating the Logan Act is Republicans failing/refusing to do anything about it (other than call a press conference, that no one will watch, to express their "deep concerns").

More people need to be chimping out about this.

If you're going to replace doctors with AI or offshoring to replace services and products, those services either need to become free or near free, or you need to start paying hefty taxes for employing this sort of technology or outright banned from using it. The anti-AI crowd is going to get some more momentum once its starts hitting polling and job numbers. Ironically, I don't think China will suffer nearly as much from the AI apocalypse since a majority of their jobs are in manufacturing. The US on the other hand has a ton of service, white color business and technology jobs that will suffer heavily from the advancement of replacement by AI.

If you're going to replace talented with professional with a computer, their debt needs to be discharged for that industry. These demands are not unreasonable anymore.
Nobody can get a job or afford anything anymore. Won't stop Trump from sweeping this under the rug by pointing at stock prices for the hundredth time and acting as if nothing is wrong.
 
Cybersecurity did not "get shut down;" it's boom industry right now. AI's created an infinite attack surface, regulators are tightening ransomware defense requirements, attackers are using one-off AI-generated malware, on and on. Cohesity's hiring, Trend Micro's hiring, Commvault's hiring, Palo Alto's hiring, fucking everybody in cybersecurity is hiring right now. The need for security has so outpaced what medium-sized and smaller companies can do that CISO-as-a-service companies are popping up and raking it in. There was a deceleration in some of the retail-aligned industries last year, but it's picking up in health care and finance.
It's almost as if there has been a well-documented and concerted effort to minimize native-born white males' access to tech jobs that has been ramping up over at least the past decade, with companies going so far as to hide job listings in obscure media so that they can claim no US citizens are applying for them and give them to jeets instead. The rising prevalence of Indians in the tech industry cannot be denied, it is the lived experience of everyone here and one of the largest grievances of the guy who owns the forum you post on. I can only assume that you are so old that your acknowledgement and understanding of the brownoid epidemic has been clouded by your subconscious need to jump down the throat of someone expressing less than ideal life circumstances so that you can tell them to "pull yourself up by your bootstraps". But I'm glad you were able to hastily Google an article to throw in the face of someone who has actually engaged with that industry, that must have felt really good for you.
 
I was groomed throughout my entire life by institutions and individuals alike to either pursue college or be a failure. By the time I finished my degree, the industry that I was told was lucrative and healthy and growing had evaporated overnight, jobs shipped overseas to people who are willing to do a worse job over more hours for worse pay. These institutions took my future from me, and they expect me to pay them for it? I'm not giving them a cent. The niggers can have this one if it means I get mine.
"Niggers still have to pay. Everyone else is forgiven".

Boom. Another example of the law being more simple and just if it stopped being obsessively colorblind.
 
I did this with my snow blower accidentally and the carburetor bit it. Learned that lesson.
My grandfather did this every year for his lawn equipment. Only reason I even remember it. We'd tell him, and then he'd forget, luckily the repair guy he used (every year...) was a family friend.

Fixed my brother's lawnmower and generator a few years ago, had to rebuild the carbs. Told him it was the first and last time if he kept using ethanol gas, luckily he learned his lesson (or is too embarrassed to tell me)

If I chimp out any harder about it, I am going to subscribe to pewdiepie. In roblox, of course.

This was already a problem for decades for blue collar workers, and unfortunately, the time for collective chimping was back then. Instead, workers got told to suck it up for "progress", and the process of using machines and foreigners to replace Americans has thus been thoroughly normalized at this point. If you really want to make this a big deal, then stop hyperfocusing on industries and "professionals" that you favor, and start including every single American worker getting fucked by robo and foreign dogshit. You need Willy the Welder and Tim the Trucker, not just Andy the Accountant and Paul the Programmer, at least if you want to make enough noise for it to matter.

It will be an uphill battle, though. I have been assured for decades that automation and foreign labor is fantastic, and anyone who complains got the "dey terk er jerb" treatment. I do not foresee that mindset changing until after those previously unaffected have also had der jerbs terk.
 
What's the lowdown on this impending chemical shortage crisis? I'm hearing people in that industry dooming about how shortages of precursors are soon going to make life hard. some even say it will be worse than the 1973 crisis/oil shock.
Theres been a massive ritalin shortage for months now, but thats because the FDA refuses to let more than a set amount of the main chemical in it be produced in the handful of labs allowed to produce it.

That what you're talking about?

Get your shit together.

Just lie about experience that's literally what everyone else did
The only thing you shouldn't like on resumes is education and any criminal background. Those are just aren't worth it unless you really want to roll the dice. Experience lol. Unless you're fairly well known in the field for most stuff just how the hiring manager likes you matters more.
 
Just lie about experience that's literally what everyone else did
With the new scare of North Koreans and Chinese spies in high-tech jobs, more companies are doing very stringent background checks now and as a consequence lying will get you removed from the hiring pool. I had no clue about this until another poster on this very forum brought it up.
