I had a fitbit and every day it thought I was doing intense cardio from 8-3, calculating my day's caloric expenditure as something like 3000. Sorry fitbit, just a typical day in the office as a dude with high anxiety.

Reply to comment by Icy-Web-2165 in How Florida's increased minimum wage could impact the future workforce by WallStreetDoesntBet
"Fleeing CA and NY" seems spinny. NY is the #1 source of people moving to Florida, but NY is actually the #1 source of people moving pretty much anywhere - including California. At the same time, NY has seen a surge of people moving to it. People just move in and out of NY a lot.
Florida's other top donors include Georgia, Pennsylvania, and Ohio before you get to CA. There's really no one fleeing anywhere.

Reply to How Florida's increased minimum wage could impact the future workforce by WallStreetDoesntBet
>“My concern is those young people who are trying to get into the labor force that don’t have the skills to be worth $11 or $13 or up to $15 an hour as it gets there in 2026,” says Dr. Parrish.
While he also has some good things to say about the increase, this is a terrible argument.
The minimum wage is going up simply because that's what's needed to pay the bills. Florida has people who work full time but are homeless. That's silliness. To say nothing of young workers being less than 20% of minimum wage workers - so why should at least 80% of that class of workers live in poverty because of some hypothetical "skills" argument of an extreme minority?

9to5 is really going all out on these Apple health ads, I mean articles. This is like the 10th one I've seen since Sunday.
