RVUs are supposed to measure how much work something takes, so it’s literally just paying someone based on how much work they do. If you’re not actually doing the work, or are doing work that shouldn’t be done, that’s certainly a problem, but I don’t think RVUs existing is a problem in and of itself.

As a completely unqualified observer, I would say you should pursue the thing you like over wasting two years of your life doing something you don’t care about.

Kinda sounds like you know what you want to do tbh lol

Do you realize you’re using their bandwidth, too? They have to pay for upload/download just like you do.

Can I ask why people act like YouTube is so evil for trying to make money off their site? They provide a service I value and it costs money to do so. No disrespect to anyone who doesn’t want to watch ads or pay (like I do, I use it a LOT) but I don’t understand why some people seem to be personally insulted by the idea that they can’t get it for free forever with no strings attached.

Honest question, please don’t flame me 🙏

Doesn’t seem like it’s working out so well for him on Brazil…

It’s probably a recoilless rifle, doesn’t need to be anchored like a normal cannon.

They got purchased by private equity not long ago.

Being up in the middle of the night in the summer of 2003 watching adult swim in my (parent’s) basement as a kid. I had horrible anxiety and trouble getting along with other people for various reasons, and my parents weren’t much help. When I was here watching this, in a room I never usually went in, it was like being in a different world. I felt calm for the first time in forever, and the weird adult swim stuff made it feel even more otherworldly and separated from my normal life. The adult swim bumps and content from that time are so cemented in my mind but looking at it now they’ve changed so much, so many times. I’ll still remember it the way it was.

I never really understood this. What’s the difference between sealioning and calling someone out for saying stupid shit? I feel like “sealioning” only exists as a term people can use to reframe a situation from “I talked shit and can’t/won’t back it up yet won’t admit it” to “you’re aggressing against me by expecting me to stand behind or explain my words”. Am I just a big dunderhead?

Edit: oh ok, I RTFA lol, makes a lot more sense. I guess the original comic is just not a great example of it in my opinion, but that makes sense since it’s just a silly comic

Sounds like maybe they found more than popups when they investigated…

“Buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo” is a tautology but still a sentence

Oregano?

Sous vide 🤤

I’m going to make the right but difficult choice here and not send this article to my friend who’s going on her first flight tomorrow on an Air France plane.

I spent ten seconds looking this up and it’s bullshit. The captions don’t match what he’s saying, he doesn’t mention nuclear weapons at all.

I’ve seen more battleworthy vehicles pass me on the jersey turnpike.
