Pennsylvania jetzt auch offiziell republikanisch. Schon krass wie deutlich es am Ende wird.

(disclaimer that this is purely my impression from what i've seen mentioned online, not firsthand knowledge)

Which isn't necessarily mutually exclusive. I was under the impression that the problems have more to do with high workloads and work environments that are chronically understaffed, not necessarily because of low salaries. Not claiming that all nurses are payed well, but it seems like that at least in the US there is a somewhat reasonable path to making good money (assuming you are willing to switch jobs and maybe continue to get sought after qualifications along the way).

That makes sense. I can definitely see consulting work paying top dollar in many different professions.

But that seems to me like she has carved out a lucrative niche for herself, which wouldn't scale as advice for a larger number of people. Whereas with the other professions you can probably make good money even just doing more "regular" work.

Physical therapists, nurses and people that went into trades I can see making good money, but social workers I am kind of surprised to hear. I thought those were for the most part not paid as well compared to how taxing their jobs can be.

That I am actually not sure about, since you can manipulate profit numbers much easier (see Hollywood accounting) compared to revenue. But making money is ultimately of course the goal for profit companies, so naturally where you can hurt them.

If you decide to not go for a draconian fine where the margin of error are wider (doesn't matter too much if you fine 4 or 5 times profit, you still get the point across), then you need to at least try to put in some effort to be accurate.

And 3% margin on a deal would be something you'd see from discount retailers like Aldi or Walmart.

Cost of doing business.

I'd really like to know what their margins are, because if my math is right that $0.5m fine is roughly 3% of $17.1m. The very least a fine should do is siphon off all profits, more to account for those you do not catch and to be an effective deterrent. But even if you do want to incentivize companies to cooperate taking all profit should be the lower limit. And I have a really hard time imagining that margins in the chip market are that thin.

Of course you also need to know the month, but similar to the year i would argue that there are plenty of times where the month is evident from context. So the informational value is lower than the day.

I don't want to argue that this is an absolute thing, but i'd say that quantitatively there are more times where you only need the day compared to very few times where you only need the month for example.

I'd agree that yyy.mm.dd is probably the best for sorting reasons, but imo dd.mm.yyyy also has at least some logic in an everyday setting. Usually the order of relevance for everyday appointments is the day, then month, then year. Oftentimes the year has no informational value at all, since it is implied, e.g. for an upcoming birthday.

Kann mir jemand erklären, was denn jetzt genau noch der Unterschied zwischen Bürgergeld und Hartz 4 ist außer der Name?

Was mich persönlich extremst irritiert ist, dass es überhaupt erlaubt ist neben einem Job bei den Stadtwerken gleichzeitig Nebentätigkeiten wie z.B. Aufsichtsrat in großen Energieunternehmen nachzugehen. Das ist doch ein Paradebeispiel von systematischem Interessenkonflikt, den man als Arbeitgeber prinzipiell ausschließen sollte, denn es besteht ja eine direkte Verkäufer/Kunden-Beziehung.

Das kann doch der Logik nach nur schief gehen, denn letztlich sind sie dadurch beiden Arbeitgebern gegenüber Verpflichtet in ihrem Interesse zu handeln. Aber der Gewinn der einen Seite, ist oft genug der Verlust der anderen.

Thanks, i wasn't aware of that option and will definitely try to use it occasionally. Although having an option like that and having a default mechanism that pushes posts back to the top still probably still have different effects.

As the title suggests i am looking for book recommendations for someone wanting to learn more in the field of political science.

Either something for a more general overview or on a specific topic would be appreciated.

 

As the title says i am currently considering switching away from TrueNAS Scale.

My system has a Celeron N3160, 16gb ram, 2x18tb HDD as a zfs mirror and ssd storage for os

My usecase is mostly just as a local storage and media server with *arr stack and jellyfin.


Some of the reasons why i want to switch:

  • Truenas claims a full drive for the OS, no way to partition off something

  • no automatic updates (i get why it might make sense for stability, but as a basic user i probably value the convenience higher)

  • there've been issues with truecharts breaking the ability to update and the solution seemed to be to just reinstall the applications

  • applications sometimes don't show up on start and i have to restart


Overall i think TrueNAS Scale might be excellent for some, but i am just not quite the target audience. So i just want something simple that works.

Now that Unraid supports ZFS that would be a consideration, but i don't really feel like paying (however i am not completely opposed, if its the best option).

My first idea was Proxmox, but thinking about it a bit more i probably don't need the flexibility and it just adds more levers that need adjusting.

So the current frontrunner would be OpenMediaVault for a simple NAS setup that doesn't need as much flexibility and is low maintainance. I assume the setup would be pretty straight forward and i can just import my truenas zfs pool and install whatever docker applications i want.


My questions would be:

  • Is OpenMediaVault a good choice for me? Or is there anything better?

  • Any up/downsides compared to e.g. something like a simple ubuntu server?

  • Is there anything major that i would miss out on by not going with proxmox?
