Odd though that out of 5 people he got two staffers. Seems he was trying to specifically get isreali employees.
I do feel for the innocents who get targetted… on both sides.

The 3 Ds. Delay, die, don’t care.

If success is determined by a metric, the metric will go up. Any relation to actual increase in value is coincidental. Lol. Long ago someone tried to incentivize programers by giving abonus per bug fixed. Didn’t last long before they blew through the bonus budget and realized the programers were putting in bugs so they could fix them. (Urban legend really… probably)

Sadly, neither side would stop abusing the system in my opinion. Besides, a lot of the resume spammers are doing it as a business for others.

Not really poly, just more fluid about changing relationships. Basically, more short term, not life long, commitments. When it isn’t enough for a person, move on. And that shouldn’t be considered a failing of the other. People change, interests change, newness wears off. That’s natural. Society considering unmarried men as unstable, and unmarried women as somehow broken is just not right.
If there are kids involved it gets more complicated of course. Then it gets into some kind of marriage contract or something. But raising kids these days is broken too. You almost need a professional involved full time just to keep up with all the things kids really need. Most of us parents just can’t do it all, both from a time/energy perspective and a skill perspective.

It was like 75% joke. The other 25% was saying the parent is responsible, not the websites.

Laptops are like guns. If you leave them unsecured, you are responsible if your kid gets a hold of them. Who even has a laptop without a password these days.

The cardinals didn’t have to weed through 1000’s of AI generated resumes of people who don’t really exist. Lol

All said and done, the concept that people should be monogamous isn’t natural. Look at the animal kingdom. It’s pretty rare.
Some people just don’t fit that mold. But society tends to look down on them. So for some, bucking the system is probably a source of joy and achievement that they want to share. For the listeners, humans often go along with things to avoid awkward interactions. Then go home later and say to someone, “I can’t believe she just said that.”

Seriously, I think that fits. Many people (not all) cheat because they are unfulfilled in life. And the same cohort also might go to class reunions for the same reason… to try to find fulfillment.

Star trek 6, “well the thing’s gotta have a tailpipe.”

Enter Maverick, ready to fly the old jets.

Are we even sure he actually knew he was doing that? I wonder if he even knows he has cancer.

Here is an interesting graph I found. Birth rate accounting for the child surviving to reach childbearing age. https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/effective-fertility-rate-children-per-woman-who-are-expected-to-survive-until-childbearing-age Not sure if the target is still 2.1 though. I couldn’t find a better graph to show population rate by birth per country though. That would be an interesting graph that I think would tie into the haapiness of people and the polution levels of thier area.

Interestingly, the US fertility rate fell below the replacement rate all the way back in 2007. I knew we were dependent on immigration, but I didn’t know how long ago that happened. Japan was actually 1974. Korea 1983. So as you say this isn’t a new problem, and the US is not immune.

Poor enough in this context is on the spender not me. If they are doing the ad tier because they feel they can’t afford it otherwise, fine. I have no qualms with them. It’s the hypocrites that rail against the rich for thier money grubbing actions and then turn around and support the ad tier so that they can build wealth themselves that are the problem. You seem to be working harder and harder to make me fit your initial opinion of me rather than letting it go and reform it on new information. If that makes you feel better in your day, glad I could help.

I’m not sure he thinks that far out. Probably doesn’t even realize he is a eugenicist.

It’s probably that applications are down, so they want to take credit for it.

He is also not wrong, just in the wrong post.

We are one screening of a popular movie from the 90s starring Russle Crowe away from opening up gladiator arenas.
