This is the hoity toity substance less bullshit that is disenfranchising liberals.

I see what they did there.

Conservatives, and Trump, LOVE the idea.

The troll doesn't work if the target wants the troll. And the move shows they are spending time resting on their laurels and being snarky instead of supporting their constituents.

A law reducing incarceration for petty crimes? No. Ensuring proper nutrition and Healthcare for the incarcerated? No. Putting another notch on Trumps belt to inflate Trumps ego, increase his visibility, and fire up his army of dolts? You betcha!

But it was totally meant to be ironic and won't totally backfire on them.

I'm torn on my response.

Enjoying all the benefits and then trying to call for unity with those who havent urks me.

That said, I do enjoy a small handful of privileges over my peers, which I have not actively relinquished, and take a similar tone on other topics, because I only have my words of dissent at the the tilted scales, but I also won't turn down a free lunch.

Fuck it. Cheers mate.

The AI was just RNG applied to a census.

You can pay one person 5k for 40 years, or you can use a machine that cost 200k upfront that breaks down in 10 years.

Which one are the capitalists going to choose?

How many people did they fire without severance?

They're just butt-hurt that the severance that they built into the company for themselves and not for others was not afforded to them.

A bigger fish came along and gave them a taste of their own medicine.

Fuck 'em.

(Unless someone else comes along and proves to me that everyone fired from twitter by Elon or these 4 got 32 million dollars in severance each.)

Purchase Order. I work in Supply Chain.

A client forecasts a needed item number, then they submit a Purchase Order, a Sales Order is made for the Purchase Order, A Work Order is made for the Sales Order, the item number is manufactured, the Work Order is closed, the item number is delivered to the client, the Sales Order is closed, an invoice is generated, the invoice is paid, the PO gets closed. Unless you're ASML, in which case, there is a d12 roll to decide if its gets closed or if you just leave it there forever.

They absolutely refuse to close out about half of their POs, they just leave them in final fulfilled status, but never close them. Makes it a nightmare to try and maintain a clean "Open PO" data feed.

Spent a year trying to get them to just close the POs. Got run around half the world. No results.

They also have this habit of getting people to accept orders directly through email via excel spreadsheets instead of submitting proper POs.

This leads to different segments of the company flying blind and constantly clashing with eachother when trying to set global demand drives.

They also use Ariba as their vendor portal, which if you have ever tried to do a deep dive into ANID number relationship management, you know that Ariba requires extensive collaboration on both Vendor and Client side to keep the framework from becoming a knotted mess.

They don't have any particularly present Ariba collaboration.

All in all, in my current position, I have dealt with ASML and many of their competitors. LAM is by far the nicest to work with. ASML has been one of the most frustrating to work with while getting the least accomplished.

ASML is HORRIBLE to work with.

They are some of the most shady, disorganized, uncooperative, chaotic organizations I have ever worked with.

I guess that is where the confusion is.

I didn't mean it in a negative way.

Literally said I love the game.

Again, didnt say overwhelmed or drowning.

Said sucked the life out of me. Had me engrossed. My first sit down was 4 hours that felt like 5 minutes.

Edit: Cheeky, but I gotta sat it... people who are taking "sucked the life out of me" as a negative statement have never enjoyed a blowjob. At least not a good one.
