@hr_unhinged Maybe that's why he is trying to cancel you out, you sound like a bit of a bitch.
English

I noticed one employee wearing noise-canceling headphones.
Not earbuds.
The big, cushioned over-ear kind that create a tiny personal universe.
I asked if everything was alright.
He said yes, he’s just trying to focus.
I told him we value focus, but isolation can misread as resistance to collaboration.
He said he’s literally sitting at his desk doing his job.
I told him we track human presence, not just output.
He asked how presence is measured.
I said imperfectly, which is why it's so important.
Then I logged “avoiding spontaneous culture building opportunities” in his engagement profile.

@ramonvanmeer Why do you write Made in Asia instead of the more precise Made in China? This is not a good test.

@shibalsekiaW @coinfessions Yeah but overpriced stuff for the gullible cryptobros

Made $800K from WIF, got in early on RIF and URO, ran my port to $1.9M. Moved to Dubai, blew $300K on clubs, bottles, hookers—lots of hookers—and drugs. Lost big on Melania and Trump, left with $300K in Phantom, then got drained. Now I’m back at my mom’s, sleeping on the couch with $4K to my name.

@Ashcryptoreal Really? This happens all the time shady market making is involved. Someone ran with a lot of money.

@F47Pilot @WallStreetApes I think OP is referring to cattle processing, but even then it is exaggerated. I’ll believe AI which gathers sources, not opinions.
English

American cattle rancher exposing that they’ve all been sold out, they’re at risk of being run out of business and your meat is being imported
- 4 large mega corporations now own 85% of the entire industry
- 2 of them are foreign owned
- 1 of them is Chinese
“50% or more of the beef processing be controlled by countries outside of the US. It comes down to our own food source security.”
“We used to make fair amount of return on my cattle, but the industry has changed dramatically with the government allowing the consolidation of the meat processing business.
4 companies, giant companies got together and decided to roll that up, consolidate it, and that's just business. But when we get on the other side of it and we take into account the ramifications on our national economic health. It has a very detrimental effect.
Our government allowed 2 giant companies controlled by foreign governments to come in and acquire.
One of them is controlled by the Chinese, and they bought Smithville out of North Carolina. And the other one was a Brazilian company that came in and bought up one of the other major players.
So now we have an industry, 85% of it actually has been consolidated and rolled up and controlled by 4 companies. Four companies now are dictating who gets what, where, and when. Do you see?
But nobody thought our government would let 50% or more of the beef processing be controlled by countries outside of the US. It comes down to our own food source security.
The geopolitical situation we find ourselves in, why would we want to have an antagonist on 25% of our meat processing? It makes no sense at all.”

@BRICSinfo They do know that Europe mostly buys teslas right? Barely see other EVs in Sweden atleast

@Microinteracti1 @TrumpDailyPosts Tariffs will stim manufacture growth in the US. And that's a good thing, or you wish US be forever slave to China?
You can't get anymore cheap Nike's made by child-slaves in sweatshops? Oh too bad.

Trump still doesn’t understand what a trade deficit is.
It’s not a “financial loss” like a business losing money. It just means Americans buy more from other countries than they sell—often because U.S. consumers want cheaper goods and U.S. companies rely on global supply chains.
Tariffs don’t “fix” that—they just tax American businesses and raise prices for American families. And while a few billion in tariff revenue sounds nice, we just lost trillions in market value in two days.
This isn’t strategy. It’s economic self-harm dressed up as a win.
English

We have massive Financial Deficits with China, the European Union, and many others. The only way this problem can be cured is with TARIFFS, which are now bringing Tens of Billions of Dollars into the U.S.A. They are already in effect, and a beautiful thing to behold. The Surplus with these Countries has grown during the “Presidency” of Sleepy Joe Biden. We are going to reverse it, and reverse it QUICKLY. Some day people will realize that Tariffs, for the United States of America, are a very beautiful thing!

@romero It should have been made in the Quake universe, though. It's medieval, such a nice fit! Oh, well. It still looks like an interesting game.

@PixOnChain Why always it’s an ugly guy? Why no rugger is handsome?

@SamsungSchweiz Hey Samsung Switzerland, why can't I trade in my Fold 3???
English

The new #GalaxyZFold4 is the perfect multitasker. Pre-order until 25.08. and benefit from CHF 200.- trade-in bonus! 🤩

@landimatte Yes, that is a good setup. In my case we have Spring Data + Liquibase. Not sexy, but it works, given that our migrations are normally additive.
English

@javanni Don't anyone need a little bit of magic in their lives? Joking aside, I think my sweet spot would be: Skeema et al. in "(potentially) break all the things" mode for development/CI-CD; materialized DDLs once changes are merged into main, and you have a clear migration timeline
English

TIL: MySQL does not know how to rollback opeartions that alter databases / tables. This means that wrapping these inside transactions is not going to make your database migrations any safer; on the contrary it will just give you the illusion of safeness
