Mismanage or can't pay healthcare premiums anymore (US)?

Health care premiums are expensive, but even the best insurance I've ever seen was a fraction of the compensation software employees were making.

For some fields that's a huge amount of your compensation, but for software engineers it's noticeable but not going to be worth doing layoffs over by themselves.


How much do you think healthcare premiums are? Employers are not paying your deductible or out of pocket expenses.

What an absurd question. You think employers, who are laying people off and claiming AI for shareholder value, are more pressed about their large group plans than the fucking salaries that absolutely dwarf those premiums?

Some of y’all desperately need to stop huffing social media farts.


I can read the news and see things are going up sideways across the globe. You guys are extremely good at flooding the zone with shit. I am asking a question. It is easy to say we layoff people due to AI when the real reason is different. Not every company has shareholders.

You are also thinking about companies having thousands of employees and everybody seem to make millions.


They are everywhere already in microcontrollers like ESP32.

Yeah but op was talking about directly using a RISC-V computer. The embedded RISC-V CPUs are effectively black boxes.

I thought the trick is just to use an xbox kinect. But lidar got a lot cheaper in the recent years.


ipad pro actually preforms fairly comparably according to geekbench


and I wonder which blown up tank would pollute the environment more


If you're worried about the environment don't get into wars. If you're in a war, worry about winning.

Wars of the future will make heavy use of drones. They don't run on hydrocarbons.


I don't really think that's really high up on military priorities list. But happy to be proven wrong on that.


I've had bazzite on mine for a year and wayland by default


my i5 7500t, 8gb ram 24/7 1l 'server' disagrees.

my atom, 4gb,1tb hdd bare metal ovh server also disagrees.


You are seeing quotes where there are none.

Every billionaire has massive mental health issues.


A 1080p cam with night vision a mic and speakers is 20 bucks. Baby monitors where more expensive in the past (audio only).


The good part of Bazzite is I can just rebase to fedora kinoite and continue to be happy.
