I saw this dynamic play out many times in the ~10 years I spent litigating these kind of environmental review cases at DOJ. Other real examples from cases I worked on: - highway turn lane delayed -> multiple fatal car crashes in the interim - prescribed burn delayed -> entire forest burns down - flood control project delayed -> devastating flood

One of the largest spills of untreated wastewater in American history happened while an environmental review process held up sewer line repairs because they were studying risks to a flower and a bat.

For 3 years, the Broward County Sheriff’s Office cooked up large amounts of its own crack cocaine, so it could sell it to people that deputies would then arrest for buying crack cocaine. cbs12.com/news/local/bro…

Wow, LinkedIn just got caught in a huge scandal. Here's what's going on: > Every time you open LinkedIn in a Chrome-based browser, LinkedIn’s JavaScript executes a silent scan of your installed browser extensions. > The scan probes for thousands of specific extensions by ID, collects the results, encrypts them, and transmits them to LinkedIn’s servers. It gets worse: > The scan doesn’t just look for LinkedIn-related tools. > It identifies whether you use an Islamic content filter (PordaAI — “Blur Haram objects, real-time AI for Islamic values”) > whether you’ve installed an anti-Zionist political tagger (Anti-Zionist Tag), or a tool designed for neurodivergent users Huge L after L

Absolutely disgraceful. Navy has sunk to appalling levels - sleeping with women is totally antithetical to their proud values.

Modest Kilowattrel is 1 point slower than Jumpluff so you can self fairy wind, get a second wind power after tailwind is set. Bramble can get +2 from tailwind/fairy wind and weakness policy Great Tusk can pop off from the fairy wind from Jumpluff.

The breakdown on why those ghost jobs exist is the part that should make you furious. 38% of recruiters said they post fake roles just to maintain a presence on job boards when they have zero intention of hiring. 36% post them to "test" how their job descriptions perform. 25% do it to gauge how hard it would be to replace their current employees. Read that last one again. A quarter of recruiters are posting fake jobs as a passive-aggressive threat to their own workforce. Meanwhile on the applicant side, job seekers now submit 32 to 200+ applications on average before receiving a single offer. The average success rate on an online application is between 0.1% and 2%. The average time-to-hire has stretched to 42 days. And 72% of job seekers report negative mental health impacts from the process. The math is simple. If 81% of recruiters admit to ghost jobs, and 21.5% say half their listings are fake, a job seeker sending out 100 applications is spending roughly 10 to 50 of those applications on roles that were never real. Hours of resume tailoring, cover letters, and interview prep directed at positions that exist solely so a company can look like it's growing on LinkedIn. The incentive structure is perfectly rational for the employer. Ghost jobs cost nothing to post. They build a free candidate pipeline. They make the company look healthy to investors and competitors. They give HR "market intelligence" without paying a consulting firm. For the person applying at 11pm after a full workday, rewriting their resume for the fourth time that week, the cost is everything. The job board is the product. The job seeker is the inventory. The employer is the customer. And 81% of those customers just admitted the inventory is fake.

81% of recruiters said their employer posts ‘ghost jobs,’ per Fortune.
