Well it’s like a super tape recorder that can play back anything anyone has ever said on the internet.

Imagine what would happen if a bunch of huge fully-remote companies with no office space were told by the government that they now had to buy a building for workers to work in.

Imagine how fast their opinion would switch.

Wonder what new non-crime the prison industrial complex will invent to refill the prisons after they can’t arrest people for weed.

The way you keep employees and build a strong team is by giving them things you aren’t obligated to provide.

So what you’re telling me is that written tests have, in fact, existed before?
