No wonder my Commodore stock went up.

If the bot can do the judge's job for them well, it gets an "A"

In the Gov't time ... goes ... slower ... er.

The biggest three issues I've experienced in years are:

1) different formulas and way of doing them than Excel, so there's compatibility issues.
2) The UI is hideous on Mac (and Windows, presumably) at this point.
3) It's very slow to start (on Mac and Linux, haven't used Windows in years).

It's my go-to when I need to do things that I can't do in google sheets/docs, at this point.

I sympathize with your situation - this used to be a hard scenario to deal with, and there are a couple things you can do to make an upgrade break... but I don't understand how, frankly. I've not had an install break that wasn't my own fault in years (eg. specifying an arbitrarily small /boot partition).

apt update && apt upgrade, update the sources.list to the next major release; apt update && apt-get dist-upgrade -y and.... wait. Accept all defaults (unless you know better).

This has been foolproof for years for me.

The pay is fantastic, and as most of the Amazon employees working in an office are AWS employees working in "Sales", it's great for people who can babble and bullshit but with no real skills - particularly as their sales people don't work on quota and can do a very large number of things that contribute to looking busy but accomplish nothing. Even skilled people struggle to get anything done there due to their "gotta follow the rules" formulaic "success criteria" culture. This is partially why you end up with a lot of Indians working there.

Think of the worst parts of writing reports or doing homework in school - that's working at Amazon.

Let's not conflate things here.

It's trivial to click the "I've got a disability" box when applying for a job, and it doesn't necessarily mean you're disabled or have a disability, except per the definition of law.

Eg. things like alcoholism, prior or current, ADHD/autism, prior cancer, anxiety disorders, and/or being morbidly obese.

Also covered under the ADA, would be something like ripping a tendon or breaking a knee in a sporting activity and needing to (temporarily, albeit for more than several weeks) walk with a cane or need other special considerations.

I don't NOT have sympathy for a lot of these, but they're hardly a basis on which a person shouldn't be able to come to the office.

(That also doesn't change the fact that these RTO efforts are draconian and stupid, and 100% aren't being used for honest purposes by Amazon.)

RDBMS need a new info transport standard, ODBC was binary.

Go Home Yankees!

You must be talking about this band.

Bots will get better over time

A bot may be able to guess that something is AI, but banning people based on guesses is going to generate tension.

Sonic Goatse? figgers

One generally has to dig deeper into how an org works to understand who did what and why. NY gov't won't have the time or resources to check most correctly. This idea smells almost as bad as DOGE's Move Fast And Chainsaw Things.
