DEI is an attempt at merit-based hiring. The only difference is what the definition of merit is. The definition that is based on past achievements is biased towards those who have previously had better opportunities, not necessarily better skills. DEI takes a look at the potential of someone in the context of how well they’ve done with respect to what has been available to them.

Someone who has a GED instead of graduating high school on time might have had opportunities closed to them because they had a reason for dropping out of high school (e.x. had to help family by getting a job), so it wouldn’t be equitable to judge them harshly for not having as strong of a resume as someone who had a “conventional” experience and was given more opportunities fresh out of highschool because they could afford to take an unpaid/low pay internship, instead of focusing on taking care of a family.

Nothing about either situation really can tell you about an applicants potential in the field or their work ethic or anything. But 9 times out of 10 the one who was fortunate enough to finish highschool on time will be ahead in the selection process for no reason other than they didn’t have life get in the way of their career.

DEI won’t be able to magically tell you which candidate is better, but it can allow employers to level the playing field and use different metrics to measure merit that might be less biased against people who have had nontraditional lives through no fault of their own.

“keep thinking about the rabbits, Lenny Mr. CEO.”

Don’t worry, there’s always that one house that gives out files instead.

Why? It’s a Twitter reference if anything

Don’t rule out a Roth if you only want to save for 5-10 years. You’re allowed to withdraw the principal (initial 10K) at any time for no penalty/cost, so long as it’s recorded properly with the IRS when you withdraw it.

Actually, they only validated up to 4xs in the product name, so take the 5x result with a grain of salt, one of the Xs aren’t validated.

I love trying to incorporate different constructions I find in the Yale Grammatical Diversity Program. Currently working on “for to” constructions. My goal is just to understand how people perceive language, and this is a great resource. It isn’t a collection of “wrong” ways to say things, just how a minority of people say things.

The most popular example I can think of is the song “Horse with no Name” in the chorus.

I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can’t remember your name
'Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain

As a note, AMD 7000 series GPU for AV1 encode, the encoder is flawed and can only produce factors of 64x16 pixels, as well as a special 1920x1082 ratio. If your have a lot of 1080p content, it will be recorded with two lines of black pixels on the left and right, and then set to crop it out on video playback.

Just something to keep in mind if you go with that series of GPUs.

Maybe, but a locus is a type of grasshopper.

Unless the artist only posts on YouTube, try soulseek. Most files have metadata already included, and if they don’t, you can just download from another user.

70 in a 40 is impressive. Like how?

Ffmepg, whisper. Programs that are command-line only and are super useful.

The Korean guy pictured is using an air rifle, a different category than the Turkish guy using an air pistol.

For a time, the Lego movie was an add on YouTube. The full thing. You could skip it after 5 seconds, but you had the option of watch the full movie.

Plane wifi, in the Continental US, is typically done via cell networks. The plane just has stronger receivers and transmitters than your cellphone.

The 4chan board is probably robot9000, or r9k. It’s common on that board to refer to posters as “robots” instead of “anons”, “fembot” is their equivalent of “femanon”.

So archery is a sport because it requires effort, but the effort isn’t the part that makes archery hard? Olympic archers don’t struggle with pulling the bowstring, they struggle with aiming the bow to get fractions of a point.

If they ran a lap in between shots during the shooting sports would you call that a sport?
