Their data may not be the latest but isn't it's more reliable. I used to participate in the BLS, and this numbers are submitted by employer every two weeks.

No one can predict everything perfectly. This is just the guidance based on the data that was reported. AI is advancing faster than anyone can imagine and no one knows the impact - good or bad.

They marketing like it's an expensive tech, but it's pretty cheap.

We have been buying heat pump PTAC for the hotels for last 20 years, and price difference is usually 5% between with and without heat pump.

Seems like all companies are colluding with each other for marking up prices.

Yes, You can in America. Video recording is permitted without consent in the public places. Example CCTVs.

Our hotel franchise requires us to change the password every month. We can't use the last 6-8 passwords.

Very small % of our workforce works in the farm.

Also I think we manufactured a lot more things/value with a same number of people like 10 years ago but with mostly automated.

New comment by newhotelowner in "US Ends Support For Ukrainian F-16s"

All my employees are Trump supporters and Trump got 75% of the vote in my county.

They want the 70s-80s economy back, but they don't want to support unions.

They think they deserve to receive government benefits. But others are moochers, and they don't deserve it.

They think Trump is deporting criminal / drug cartel illegal immigrants.

My state is red (State houses & governor have been conservatives for the last 30 years). Yet they blame all the issues on democrates. When my state signed the carry law, they thought Biden was the one who signed the law.

If you are in the deep trump territory, listen to conservative/religious radio stations. You will know how much hate they are spreading against liberal, trans, gays, and immigrants.

my employees have no problem doordashing Chipotle or tim Horton or Starbucks.

It's 5 mins of driving. It's also not having any financial sense.

You are not wrong. By February 2025, 90% of Republicans will start believing that the economy is thriving.

Our school says that every single time a kid gets a notification or call, everyone gets distracted, and that's why they are not allowing any one carry phone/smart watch.

Which I totally agree with.

I like it except two issues.

One is that there is not a simple way to add an episode to the queue. The main button is to start streaming. I wish I could change the stream button to add to the queue.

On Android Auto, when it starts streaming the next item in the queue, now playing screen changes to the the queue list. I wish it always stays on Now Playing screen.
