Gen Z and millennial productivity is being crushed by bosses who don’t understand them, top university research says

  • Nope, this article focuses on just one side however it is and should be a two way mutually beneficial deal, like any successful relationship. Good managers understand their employees and work within business needs to make their people happy.

  • Haven't heard this take yet. Any sources I could take a look at?

    • The US failed to track more than $1 billion in military gear given Ukraine, Pentagon watchdog says

  • This is a good take but it disregards the realities of the financial recipients being unable to account for funds spent. I agree there are special circumstances but we need to have visibility to those realities as benefactors. Otherwise how can we allocate funds democratically.

  • Lol literally no way to find out because they don't track it and have no reason to do it.

  • Or - and this is heavily documented - the US Military has never passed any audit since they began being audited. This is just part of that.

    Doesn't mean we don't support Ukraine. Just means we need to hold the military accountable for the funds provided.

  • Idk why people are down voting you. Yes its a Hong Kong based publication but it's been owned by Alibaba since 2016.

    Absolutely calls into question the veracity of the claims and makes addressing the authors sources more important.

    • China’s economy holds ‘real potential’ in 2024, think tank predicts 5.3% growth

  • Lol - from the South China Morning Post sourced from the China Academy of Science. I have a hard time accepting this as anything beyond attempted good PR. I wonder how this squares with the demographic and real estate issues China is facing.

  • Thanks for this breakdown. As an American I was confused as to why I found this concerning.

    • Britain to send 200 air defence missiles to Ukraine

  • Not an argument at all but rather a discussion on what has been provided. I think we're both in the same page in terms of support for Ukraine. We can always do more but I just wanted to provide insight into what has been done. Unfortunately the US isn't all aligned on this issue which causes the roadblock.

    From a policy perspective what would you like to see from the US?

    For the context of this article the US has provided 43.9 billion in military aid (defined as military equipment or weapons) as opposed to the UK's 6.57 Billion. By a large margin that is the most tangible assistance provided to Ukraine than any other country participating. The US could provide more funding, but money is not nearly as useful as already produced and available military equipment in the immediate term. I just hope the US can continue to assist, but Congress won't pass anything it seems (see the less than 25 bills passed this session).

    • War in Ukraine Has China Cashing In

  • It's looking like no one really knows - seeing mixed signals in the recent reporting. They are reporting higher GDP but the concern seems to be projected inflation increases and a possible housing bubble.

    When diving into the reporting, I found some interesting nuggets referring to Putin directing his interior ministers toward manual economic controls since 2014. The thought is in mitigating crises (Crimea and now Ukraine). From looking at China, manual controls seem to work in the short term before mistakes set in long term. Curious to see how much longer Russia can hold out.

  • "Russian economy is about to flip the fuck out"

    Just curious, what's your sourcing on that? I ask because this has been said since the sanctions were put in place but they've managed to limb along.
