I'm sure there are people who are working jobs with truly awful sub-minimum wage pay (under the table work, undocumented folks, etc) but I imagine the vast, vast majority of people working "below the minimum wage" are tipped workers who nominally make $2.13/hr but who simply do not report their tips.

Edit: based on the BLS tables that accounts for maybe 61% of those below minimum wage. But the data doesn't make a whole lot of sense. There are 63,000 workers in "management, professional, and related occupations" making less than minimum wage, and aside from CEOs taking $0 paychecks I can't imagine where those jobs are.

I looked up the owner of the business; they were quite young and their only previous work history was they were the CEO of a small escape room company or something along those lines. There were some other red flags as well (though I don't remember all of them).

We have folders for clients at work and everything older than a couple of years should be archived, aside from certain legal documents. Building a script to check if any file is older than a certain date and checking that it does not contain certain words in the filename, was really easy, and useful, and gave me a good feeling of satisfaction seeing it actually work.

Addresses were mailed out to: Jane Smith (my fiance) 1234 Our Apartment St, but lacking an apt#, yet they were still delivered to us at the front desk.

I check my credit card statements later and start seeing some unauthorized charges from Amazon. My card was not linked to my fiance's account. No idea what really happened here so I had to call the CC company to alert of fraud and cancel my card.

There are a number of paid services that offer to plan efficient routes given a number of inputs, and some free ones, but the free services I have seen are quite limited (e.g.: https://planner.myrouteonline.com/ does not allow you to disallow usage of toll roads).

We reimburse employees for their mileage but in an effort to reduce reimbursement and miles driven, we would like to provide employees with access to a system that just lets them plug in the addresses and get a fairly optimized route.

There is the Google Maps TSP Solver https://github.com/tzmartin/Google-Maps-TSP-Solver but this looks like it requires a Maps API Key, which is expensive on its own, however...

Google offers a "Google for Nonprofits" account which, I believe, offers a monthly credit of about $200-$250 for the Maps API.

I am interested in setting this up for our nonprofit but first wanted to check with HN to see if anyone has done something like this before. I am not a programmer and would be wading into this basically blind, so any insight from someone who has been in the same boat would be highly illustrative.

Thank you!

"Inactivated influenza vaccines probably reduce influenza in healthy adults from 2.3% without vaccination to 0.9%"

That's a ~60% reduction, which is nothing to shake a stick at. But I don't think it's a surprise to anyone that the flu shots do not have a remarkably high reduction rate; that's been public knowledge for a long time. In fact the CDC's own data on this is even gloomier than the Cochrane review:

In any event, if people are concerned about mRNA vaccines for whatever reason, there are other vaccines out there like the J&J vaccine.

While there are always reasons to be distrustful of the gov't (it is not hard to find examples of the CDC, Surgeon General, etc being dead wrong on aspects of the pandemic), a cost benefit analysis of whether to get the vaccine or not should produce a pretty clear result.
