I was in the Canadian side just today.

Haven’t been to the American side in years.

Where were you when you took this picture? On the lookout over hang? Or on the rainbow bridge?

Beautiful picture.

That’s interesting. Guess now you can have farming and solar on the same land?

It’s amazing to see all these memes and meme templates the last few days. That was peak Reddit back in 2009-10.

I feel good for lemmy if this continues.

This is pretty incredible news.

Far as I can recall this is the first significant Union gain in a while.

Which makes me wonder which way will go from here.

A) Amazon drivers will get similar benefits? B) UPS will never again put themselves in the position where they fall behind Amazon competitively.

This is the real answer. Main frame batch processing.

And till you haven’t experienced it, it seems like an excuse. Why can’t you simply do it all the time. Why can’t you get rid of the mainframe, etc.

But if only it were that easy. There is a reason IBM can still acquire multi billion dollar companies and then run them into the ground.

My company has maybe a couple million customers and can’t get rid of its mainframe and in areas that it’s gotten the process away from the mainframe, batch patronizing is still a thing. Because that is the only way to guarantee integrity.

So yea. I wish your comment gets more up votes. Because it is not a conspiracy, it is a technical limitation.

A few yards ago I would have said this was staged. But now I can totally believe it.

Edit: was reading the first response in my inbox and wondering what the guy was talking about. Then reread my comment and noticed the typo. Leaving it up now because I don’t think without the typo my comment would have seen this level of engagement.
