The efficiency of capitalism. Spend god-knows-how-many millions of dollars and time, then realize you'd rather spend 125 million all over again just to go back and spend even more millions to hire back the dame numbers again in 1-3 years.
Requiring a candidate to know a specific programming language is stupid. Nearly all of the commonly used languages in industry are similar.
It's maybe more valuable to require knowledge in a specific framework, where knowledge is less transferrable between popular frameworks. Nonetheless, I personally rather hire an engineer that solves problems and learns flexibly rather than one that happens to know the right tech.

This is like the 3rd time they say that. Will they bomb the humanitarian aid trucks and corridors again?
It's quite evident that Israel's goal is the eradication of Palestinians, yet people out there believe it is the opposite.
I don't have a link, but the lemmy creators (and maintainers of join-lemmy) answered this in a AMA about a month ago. They said they'd prefer the horrible people concentrate in their own instances so we can block them easily rather than have them in our instances. The join lemmy list does not serve as an endorsement, but a catalog of all available instances.
Wayland isn't to blame for duplicate effort. Instead of 4 different efforts doing the same thing, they can collaborate to build a common base. Heck, wlroots is exactly that.
There's a ton of duplicated work in Linux ecosystem. Just think about every new distro coming out doing the same things other distros did. Just think about all those package managers on different distros. They do almost the same thing. Do they need to have codebases that share nothing? No. But they don't care. They rather duplicate effort. They chose this.
They are not joking. You can see them continuing here: https://lemm.ee/comment/3563759
And this isn't whataboutism (not that it matters). The first commenter ridiculed socialism by using a hypothetical scenario. The second commenter showed with evidence this hypothetical scenario is actually real under capitalism.
The first commenter is talking a hypothetical scenario of socialism being bad, so the second commenter (the one you responded to) responded with actual example of that same hypothetical scenario happening, but except by a capitalist power (the US). I don't think your response makes sense at all here.
Preservatives
I intentionally answer wrong to confuse their AI model training. It does not work if the choice is obviously wrong, but if you do it with ambiguous ones, it lets you pass. Like if wants you to select birds, and the thing is just a bear that kinda can pass for a bird if you aren't looking deeply, I'll say it's a bird.
Doing my part of destroying machine learning models.
I'd rather the person. A roommate that's so good, I didn't even notice them there until I physically checked the attic? Perfect.
Chances are this was done before it reached lemmy, because other platforms (notably Facebook) will give you trouble otherwise.
People prefer centralization, and it makes sense. The Fediverse resolves most of the issues with decentralization, but so does centralization, which came way sooner, and arguably did it better.
Also, people seem to forget that Facebook was pretty cool back then. It had superior features, and was not the buggy mess it is today.
