It’s a rachet effect. If you do things quickly, often enough, it’ll just be expected. You won’t be rewarded for it.
And you better be able to keep up that pace constantly for the next ten years.
You can certainly deliver things early, just try to stay at a sustainable pace.
It’s discontinued, lol. They now only make one sedan and it’s ICE.
Usually they set up a hotline which may or may not get you fired.
You mean your 1.5 shares. Wait, no, it’ll still be three shares, they’ll just be worth 1.5 current shares.
Is it mostly stock? That would just devalue all the existing shares.
One of the votes is moving from Delaware to Texas. So enjoy that Texas judge.
plenty of EV producers actually making good cars.
Are there? I’m waiting. Maybe the Ionic 6.
Well, for many years carriers would give you ~$400 credit towards buying a phone when you signed a contract. There would be “free” phones or the $500 Motorola Razr would be $100 with contract.
It also wasn’t in the ToS/T&C. The FAQ is not a legal document, and I wouldn’t expect to need to read it if I read the T&C.
And those go public anyway. I used to work for the largest employee owned company.
Well, if you didn’t get it from me, you certainly would have gotten it from some of these responses.
It’s their philosophy, not mine. I think the Lemmy devs get a meager salary, and I’m perfectly okay with that.
But if you’re gonna stick to no pay, it makes sense to go all the way with it.
It’s amazing the number of times on Lemmy that someone will come in with the completely opposite “explanation” for what I was saying. Almost like they have an agenda.
It’s so weird to turn my statement of “support the news with money” into “the mainstream media can’t be trusted”.
Maybe it’s only happened twice, but it’s still weird that it’s happened twice.
Pay for news if you want it to be independent, and not beholden to sponsors.
I’d go as far as to say that paying for news (if you have the means to do so comfortably), is your duty as a commitment to democracy.
Jesus Christ, no. It’s almost like you’re trying to sow distrust in the news and facts.
The NYT isn’t perfect, but it’s some of the most reliable news the world has.
As of March 2023, The New York Times Company employs 5,800 individuals,[101] including 1,700 journalists according to deputy managing editor Sam Dolnick.[122] Journalists for The New York Times may not run for public office, provide financial support to political candidates or causes, endorse candidates, or demonstrate public support for causes or movements.[123] Journalists are subject to the guidelines established in “Ethical Journalism” and “Guidelines on Integrity”.[124] According to the former, Times journalists must abstain from using sources with a personal relationship to them and must not accept reimbursements or inducements from individuals who may be written about in The New York Times, with exceptions for gifts of nominal value.[125] The latter requires attribution and exact quotations, though exceptions are made for linguistic anomalies. Staff writers are expected to ensure the veracity of all written claims, but may delegate researching obscure facts to the research desk.[126] In March 2021, the Times established a committee to avoid journalistic conflicts of interest with work written for The New York Times, following columnist David Brooks’s resignation from the Aspen Institute for his undisclosed work on the initiative Weave.[127]
I’d only do that if you want independent news.
Probably not worth the PR hit. There’s at least tens of thousands, if not millions of dollars of development work in Jellyfin. (Sorry my order of magnitude isn’t more precise.) Getting $2500 out of a developer budget may not be worth the accusations of being paid in hardware.
Not that I would complain, but I can see the logic. Imagine donating $200,000 worth of developer time and then being accused of doing it for the money because you got a $2100 laptop out of it.
I do wonder what the $300 was for. It’s gotta be some kind of specific hardware component testing.
It’s almost like the methodology is less important than the people.
They always miss this part. It’s (part of) why the Republicans wanting to be Russian-style oligarchs is so insane. And ignoring good faith government and their disregard for the rule of law.
Do they KNOW what happens to Russian oligarchs? Why do they think they’re immune to that part of it? Do they really want the cutthroat politics of places like Russia and Africa, where they constantly have to watch their backs?
These people already have money. Their aims, if achieved, will not make their lives better.
Many years ago the people who ruled this country figured out that the best thing for them was to spread power and have most civilians in good health. Government by committee and good faith government is less about ethical treatment of citizens (though I appreciate the side effect) and more about protecting the committee and/or the would be dictator.
For now.
