You can’t see something small right behind you with that.
candybrie@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•There is a fee to close my HSA accountEnglish5·6 months agoIt really depends. My company, you always do the high deductible. The OOP Max is only $5k compared to $13k for the other. The difference in premiums plus my employers contribution to the HSA are more than the difference between the two deductibles. The plans cover the same stuff. I don’t really get why they’re set up how they are.
It’s just the broad description of the gender roles/hierarchy present in our society. Being aware of them and how they negatively impact gender interaction seems fairly useful to me. Usually it’s helpful to understand the current structure of something and how that’s causing problems to make any meaningful and positive changes.
Ok, let me rephrase. You aren’t going to accept that talking about the patriarchy is anything other than feminist and centering women.
He’s not going to accept the concept of patriarchy as anything other than a feminist idea that centers women.
Are people this shitty to women when they express sadness?
Pointing out shitty behavior is systemic doesn’t absolve the person of their responsibility for that behavior. It helps illustrate the issue is systemic and not just some crazy one off occurrence. It also gives an angle of attack on solutions to the systemic problem.
The patriarchy is just as much a men’s lib issue as it is a feminist issue. The gender roles and hierarchy harms men. Women being shitty to a guy for expressing emotion is an example of just that.
Women thinking men are icky when they express emotions is because they’re taught from a very young age that expressing emotions is feminine and feminine, especially feminine men, is bad. This wasn’t a reach to blame on the patriarchy at all.
The patriarchy isn’t “men are harming people all by themselves.” It’s the gender roles and gender hierarchy that both men and women perpetuate.

So it will have a list price of $50 but with a coupon to make it $35. Then a sale day happens and they lower the price to $40. It’s 20% off! Good deal.
It doesn’t really help if you’re comparison shopping with alerts. I don’t know that Amazon thinks you’re going to go to another site.

You're an adult.32·8 months agoSo you never make plans you aren’t happy to do alone just to make your loved one’s day? Like I’m not crazy about X band, but my husband loves them, so getting tickets and taking him is something I do for him. But I’d never go to that alone.

Because we don’t enjoy actually doing it. No one who likes writing is asking chat gpt to write for them. It’s people who don’t want to write but are required to for whatever reason. Humans will always try to come up with a way to not have to do the work they don’t want to but still get it done, even if it’s not as good. Using tools like this is very human.
Yeah. I’m surprised they took from MI. Management was just complaining last week about how hard it is to hire RTL people and trying to juggle us around to all the generations and variants that need to be staffed. And then this week it’s this. Maybe it is how they fire people; I haven’t heard of anyone else being fired besides this layoff in the ~4 years I’ve been there.
As someone who works at AMD not in AI, that’s how they explained it to us. Or I guess it was a bit more generic “highest growth areas” and “still hiring for positions aligned with our strategic priorities.” Which we generally took to mean AI based on the gestures broadly at the market.
If you want to work in AI, they’re hiring. The layoff was sold as a way to make room for more AI headcount.

Because they make the decision while on the meds and theoretically of sound mind. If you prior to that accident signed a DNR, and they knew about it, they wouldn’t perform certain measures that they otherwise would.
