How can I politely phrase, "My company is full of old men in leadership who don't understand data so using AI effectively is next to impossible" (lemmy.world)
 

I work at a place where data quality is not on anyone's radar. We have a reporting team in our group so we do our best where we can, but combining any datasets with other groups (like marketing & sales) is next to impossible as each team is silo'd and do things their own way - think free-form text fields to tag content...

How can I politely and succinctly say the above? Also, anyone else in a similar boat?

Homeless encampments have largely vanished from San Francisco. Is the city at a turning point? in c/news@lemmy.world

I just went to Dreamforce last week and was told they push the tents further away from the conference while it's happening.

I don't know what it looked like before but there are still PLENTY of homeless in San Francisco and it's very sad to see.

McDonald’s will stop testing AI to take drive-thru orders, for now in c/technology@lemmy.world

Adding onions to a mcchicken is impossible through a touchscreen. Can easily be done if I talked to a person

Maybe it's just me, maybe I'm getting old. But I want to order through a person. Not a touchscreen and not AI.

I feel like society is slowly removing humans from our everyday interactions and I don't like it.

Mystery/ crime/ horror novel recommendations? in c/books@lemmy.ml

I've been reading some Agatha Christie here and there. Fun short mystery reads!

Can you recommend a book for me please? in c/books@lemmy.ml
[–] ramsgrl909@lemmy.world 1 points 8 months ago

Please choose this book OP, I've read it so many times. It's that book you can't not read again and again

I'm reading the 3rd book in the Mistborn series and I'm about 2/3rds done and am struggling. I just find the characters flat, but my friend keeps telling me to just finish it so the "better books" in the Sanderson universe will make sense. Ugh.

$3 for a single McDonald's hash brown? Some customers are fed up and pushing back in c/news@lemmy.world

I worked for McDs in high school, around 2008. Big Mac meal used to be $6.08 with tax, $1 menu used to be $1.06 with tax. I went the other day and was shocked to see how much everything costs now plus I have to order via a screen (which I find bizarre, but maybe I'm just old now).

I also feel like working there used to be kind of fun. I'd take the order from the drive thru/take the money, kitchen would secretly prioritize drive thru orders (everything is timed), and window person would get the order together. Now it seems like they take 1 or 2 drive thru orders at a time and make the line wait until those are done.

Seems like fewer people working & prices went up - and I'm sure those poor folks working are making minimum wage. It's just sad all around.

What book did you push through despite wanting to put it down/rage quit/bail on? in c/books@lemmy.ml

Gunslinger, first part of The Dark Tower series - The style just wasn't for me. I finished the series though, 100% best series I'll ever read.
