People like that don't do jury duty. Being forced to serve like some peasant is beneath them.

His personal cars or do you mean the cybertruck? Because if it's the latter then it's not quite as bulletproof as advertised.

Not much difference toward feeding family or paying bills if you're not getting paid. Better to take the time off and find a new job.

If every single CEO up and left, that would be, on the whole, the single greatest thing to happen for this country. I'd feel sorry for the rest of the world that would have to deal with them, but it would be a giant step foreword for us.

You underestimate the enduring laziness of programmers.

I mean, that's exactly what programmers in the '70s thought. That there would be no way in hell that their crap code would still be in use going onto 2000.

Thing is, copy/paste is always going to be easier than writing new code and that's only going to get worse as chat bots start coding for us.

Y2K wasn't entirely fear mongering horse shit. There were quite a few important cogs in our digital infrastructure that were using code that would not work past 1999. It was necessary to terrify corporate ownership into paying to fix the code, otherwise they would have never done it.

The trick is to just get in line and pretend you don't understand the concept of groups like everyone else does.

Okay, you're not required to snarkily broadcast that in the conversation, though. You could just ignore it.

I'm sure your aunt doesn't mean any harm, but she is still part of the problem. Those 3-5 properties are 3-5 fewer homes available to own for new families and are a small part of perpetuating the housing crisis.

The term football used to apply to any ball sport played on foot (as apposed to on horseback). The idea that it could only belong to soccer is actually quite arrogant.
