A Huge Number of Homeowners Have Mortgage Rates Too Good to Give Up

  • Uhh, because of interest rates. The very thing being discussed here.

    • What's an IT profession that is realistically possible to self-study for and become proficient enough in to get employed within a year?

  • The term IT is extremely broad now, and it will depend on your interests, but it’s not all that difficult to get into.

    There is quite a large demand now for certain skill sets where large companies that traditionally only hired people with specific degrees for IT roles are now opening those up to people without degrees at all.

    Some general roles companies are in demand for now are web developers, data analysts, and cloud services.

    Cloud services is also a broad category, but a lot of companies are looking for, and will be in demand in the near future, is a cloud storage engineer/ data engineer (however the company decides to spin it), where you essentially try to optimize the usage of storage the company is utilizing. You can easily learn the basics through AWS and really honing in on their s3 capability.

    Anything related to data analyst/science is in high demand due to companies collecting so much data on their customers they have no clue what to do with it all. Data science teams basically figure that out for the company.

    Easiest role to get your foot in the door would probably be IT technician/help desk, but in my opinion that’s also a harder one to break out of into other roles. It really depends on the company and how closely those help desk roles are aligned with other departments.

  • Your entire premise requires sustained cooperation of the whole world to collude and agree on something.

    • Is HTTPS a scam?

    Jump

  • No, and its clear you don’t understand the fundamentals here and you are throwing around baseless stats.

    It’s not even about the certificate itself but the trust of who generates the cert. Just about anyone can generate a https cert, therefore it will always be free.

    Who’s going to trust a company selling certs for $1000? Now that money is involved, trust is lost and the cert becomes worthless.

    • US Senate advances $95 bln Ukraine, Israel aid bill after failed border deal

    Jump

  • Wait. Is this similar to the bill the republicans recently put forth and shut down, but just without all of the immigration and border stuff? And the GOP helped advanc this one?

  • Who’s easier to convince to change, the FAA or a college student?

    • Is anyone else worried about the apple vision pro?

  • This is anecdotal, but I see all of these VR rooms or stores at malls or on outlet areas where you can play with VR heat and have fun. They are almost always empty. I VERY rarely ever see people in them.

    There another entertainment venue near me that has bowing and games and stuff. They also have a VR area that I have never seen open. Don’t know if it’s just constantly broken or if nobody is actually interested in it.

    • Immigrants who flock to Las Vegas for casino and service jobs fear AI could replace them

  • What? McDonald’s has been replacing people for several years with technology. You used to walk into McDonalds and there would be multiple cash registers with a person behind it. Now, I rarely walk into one that has more than one register and I see more and more kiosks you can order from inside.

    They have an app where you can place an order, you simply drive up and tell them you ordered through the app, and they get your food. That app literally replaced the person that would have taken their order.
