I think the thing that’s unusual and backed up by data is that being a college grad right now has higher unemployment rate than the total average unemployment rate. This has never been the case in history until recently.


well according to the article: "Moreover, the gap between the unemployment rate for these young graduates and the broader population became its widest in about 35 years of comparable New York Fed analysis."


Majority of tourists to Korea do not speak English. You’re really thinking from an American bias there.


It’s not because of xenophobia, overseas Koreans without a Korean bank account have also faced this before.


> The UX was not great...

UX patterns are different in Asia by the way.

Also majority of tourists to Korea do not speak English, so it’s a little weird you think English should be prioritized over other Asian languages


> UX patterns are different in Asia by the way.

I would be interested in elaboration on this.

> so it’s a little weird you think [thing they definitely did not say they think]

Uh huh.


Sure. Zoom has enabled millions of people to work remotely and not commute.


Blocking access to a hospital is illegal.


For one thing, they didn’t block access to hospitals or harass health care workers.


I mean I said I didn't want to get into the weeds here, just wanted to make a meta point. But if we must, then perhaps this is a bad criteria to use:

I'm not sure that article is useful to your point, as it states that the Sheriff's office was claiming they were blocking the hospital, but that "The Independent could find no evidence of them blocking emergency exits."


Snopes:

> While the sheriff's department said protesters at one point blocked entrances and exits at the hospital, no videos or photos confirmed that was the case.

[snip, most of the article about the shooting itself]

> Rather, video footage showed a handful of deputies standing in a driveway (apparently an entrance to the hospital’s emergency room), while the small group of protesters paced up and down a sidewalk feet away from them.

> At one point, deputies detained a journalist with LA’s NPR station, KPCC, who was reporting on the small protest, as well as a male protester who “refused to comply” with deputies’ demands to leave the area.

> The sheriff’s department said the reporter, Josie Huang, ignored deputies’ repeated commands and did not present “proper” press credentials. But she said and videos of her arrest show she didn’t have time or space to react to deputies orders before they shoved her and forcefully took her into custody. In one video, she can be heard shouting “I’m a reporter… I’m with KPCC” as officers push her to the ground. They cited her with obstructing justice, though KPCC is urging authorities to drop the charge.

Adding onto this to say that the LA Sheriff's Department has less than zero credibility when it comes to any matter concerning either race or protests against police action. They literally have violent and racist gangs operating in that department. There is a reason why "Google LASD Gangs" has become a meme in LA and LA-centric circles of the internet. It is a known problem and almost no one in power is working to fix it.


I called 911 during one of those summer 2020 riots and got put on hold for close to 10 minutes. Tough luck for anyone who had a heart attack or stroke during those riots I guess?


Completely bizarre to me you’ve completely ignored the manager’s unprofessionalism here.


Great site! Just ended up discovering a new font that I like :)


I wish responses would specify their gender and if they are in a heterosexual or same sex relationship. It would be easier to frame where these answers are coming from.
