america used to develop for density. Go read the book “Strong towns” to understand how. Technological development alone doesn’t explain the car-centric development. There was active lobbying and dismantling of alternative methods of construction and zoning just to support automobiles.

Americans have been brainwashed into accepting there is no solution to a problem that was introduced by car makers in the 1960s. American cities were dense and had lots of alternate modes of transit before all of it was ripped out under the guise of technological “development” and “freedom”

oh this tired argument again!

You don’t drive across the country daily do you? How long does it take to drive across the country? that’s irrelevant.

the whole of zoning and design of US is bad.

You can’t bring this up when the argument is how far is your local grocery store is to your house. Unless you drive cross country for your groceries!

“Not everyone lives in dense urban areas or suburbs”

Your argument is “that’s how it has always been and we have to solve around it” when the solution is to not to have it that way.

the US is hopelessly into spread out development. There’s no solving your way out of having to drive 10 minutes to get groceries without substantial changes to mindset and zoning policies. It’s so absurd!

sounds like American problems that you created for yourselves! Enjoy! (or not)

man, it’s so wild hearing that the nearest grocery store is 20 miles away. You guys have created unnecessary problems for yourself. It’s so shocking how rough you guys have it and how non-chalant you are about something which is a no-brainer for the rest of the world.

never seen more chumpier chumps than Americans.

sounds like hell

yeah something like “if new candidate in employee DB == hired”

the downvotes are only because you seem to think shouting out that YOU don’t want a feature in a thread where everybody else wants it is not hypocritical

No the interviewer is personification of the naive backend that checks only that a specific row is present in the DB, or that’s how I read it.

Americans are the only creatures who don’t understand the concept of a grocery basket outside of a car

that’s not a good thing buddy

what’s the next boogeyman? Is there a criminal raffle every other month that you believe is stealing your jobs?

pray tell me how would you change the name in every script of an automation system that refers to master? Remember, you have to justify the time and cost to your manager or director!

I wouldn’t block someone on an escalator. But, in any debate about the topic, I would vehemently oppose any argument that allows people to run through a narrow escalator full of old people or people with disabilities when a wide flight of stairs is right next to it.

if you can’t understand why it is important to have NASA of all people mention you by name, you’re naive, ignorant or just a child who thinks it’s cool to diss people for wanting recognition.

Please stop being an edgelord for a moment and think about the humans in the situation.

your holier than thou attitude only reeks of loneliness and ineptitude to put yourself in the shoes of others.

you forgot about covid stimulus checks to businesses that were not returned?

shame of you to pull the “I have kids!” card just so you can shove people aside in public for your tardiness. It would seem one can act like a complete ape with no sense of time in public and be excused because “Oh I have kids, you wouldn’t understand!”.

guess what? Everybody has kids or have had kids! If to u really care about them take the damn stairs? I don’t think you would have “fat lazy” people blocking your way?

hey maybe accept that you will never achieve as much as this person. Don’t pretend that a NASA article about you won’t make you feel successful.

So you think everyone should act in accordance with how while male peers think or act in a way that makes them not think “DEI Hire”.

I have news for you: those people will find excuses to exclude POC regardless of DEI

That’s not how I read it at all. You’re so close to figuring out why POCs need DEI. You GF can’t get a job without DEI because of racism. Regardless of her skill or experience. DEI forces employers to look beyond skin colour.

maybe the concept of being in a hurry is alien to me as I am not tardy or impatient, or accept that I will be late and just not act like a baboon rushing towards a potential lunch.
