Appreciate the reply! It’s a cool way to view it in individual terms. I was thinking in more social terms, however, which I’ve been a little fascinated to find seems to be a little atypical from the replies so far.
I like to ask a variety of questions, sometimes silly, serious, and/or strange. Never asking in an attempt to pester or “just asking questions” stuff.
I’m generally curious and/or trying to get a sense of people’s views.

This does seem to come closer to what I was wondering about when I originally posted, good eye!
Is there something mystical to this?
If shareholders and executives are demanding so much money, shouldn’t they be the optimal target for cuts to maximize profitability of the business? 🤔
Does ffmpeg work best standing? Or is it better spread out? Did it work properly if it finished fast?
I was looking for a word that might immediately resolve questions regarding how it might work and the like, to avoid those follow-up questions and free people up to answer however they imagine it would work. It’s…Kinda worked? Aside from a few replies like this, which I don’t mind, I just wanted to encourage people to roll with it as they will
duplicate duplicate, unless there’s something you’d prefer with multiplidicity
Only an existential crisis? What about existential crises?
While Lemmy doesn’t have enough people for each product category yet, have you checked out the community [email protected]?
There’s also [email protected] for broader discussion, but it’s not gained much traction yet.
Anyways. I know you probably wanted a story that was more interesting than depressing, but that’s just one that really stuck with me from that point in my life there. I don’t think that’s a normal experience for a Night Auditor to have, so I wouldn’t take my experience as a reason to dissuade anyone from taking the position, but you asked for a story, and so you got one.
Even a depressing story is interesting in its own way, so I appreciate it all the same! I can see why the experience stuck with you, it’s a rough situation to find oneself in for almost all involved
For those interested in discussing their job searches, did you know there’s a [email protected] community? Not terribly active at the moment, but given the discussion here there seems to be some potential interest
Any odd stories from that job?
Do you suppose most may only be half or quarter-reading too?
While largely true, I was also thinking of filtering/sorting systems within specific sites (e.g. stores/archives/etc.) as well, which may result in similar junk results but fewer than with a search engine.
Tbh I didn’t mean to Lemmy, so much as simply off Twitter in general, preferably to a non-corporate social site. It may be naive/idealistic, but I think those most inclined to leave would be the better of the bunch, and those in-between are more apt to go to another corporate site anyway (e.g. Threads).
Asking similarly as I did with a Twitter post, because I think it’s worth discussing (and people should want others to leave the corporate enclosures so info on the internet may move more freely):
How might we help and encourage people to leave Reddit?
Wait, do you want to meet the person who photographs these labels, the person running the social media for the food, or the person who shares the photographs that inspires you to share the photographs? 😵
Is living room a new name for worship space?
Do the add-ons you use specifically target Facebook? If so, what are you using to mitigate its manipulative/predatory designs?
In the case of children, isn’t some of this on the parents involved as well? Have the parents of affected children talked to each other about it and reached out to the parents of the bullies to ask if they know their child’s been bullying or however one might go about that conversation?
That said, Apple’s certainly in the wrong in taking advantage of this, and in many ways it’s no surprise. They’re essentially a luxury brand, whose entire business model is exploiting this kind of behavior of social pressure and buying specific products to better fit into a group.
