it's perfectly reasonable for capitalists to be arguing for AI-driven software. "reducing labor costs" is the thing capitalists do. but being an AI stan as a worker is some serious class traitor shit. this isn't gonna advance your career, buddy.

sitting with the AI apologist take of "you may like the craft of traditional japanese hand woodworking but it's not what will make a profit anymore, so save that for your hobby"… the thing is, old-school joinery produces higher-quality products and uses less (& more sustainable) materials. The reason it's "not profitable" is that the labor is more specialized and expensive. So what they're saying is "I want to get paid less to make worse software".

Veel gehoord ‘rechts’ argument: Links jaagt bedrijven NL uit. Bedrijven die echt vertokken deden dat vanwege ‘beperkt beschikbare fysieke ruimte; onvoldoende elektrische net- capaciteit; onvoldoende aanbod van talent en huisvestingsmogelijkheden voor talent’.
Kortom door korten op onderwijs, stikstofprobleem niet oplossen en niet investeren in duurzame infrastructuur. Rechts beleid jaagt bedrijven weg.

I hate that people will "rescue" a wild animal and then just kind of adopt it as a pet. The cute videos of "woman rescues owl" or some nonsense always bother me because they encourage bad behavior, especially from colonizers who wanted an excuse to keep a protected animal as a pet anyway.

If you encounter a baby animal that is not doing well, it is your responsibility to locate a certified wild life rescuer in your area and follow their instructions for either bringing the animal to that rescuer, or preferably, keeping the animal safe till they can come and get the animal themselves.

Stop stealing wild animals. They're not yours :angry_heart:

tfw the trespass backpack it bought like a few months ago is already wearing through in places

any recommendations for getting a medium-size backpack (35-40l probably, something it can have for everyday use) that is actually built tough and gonna last? Would be nice to have something with MOLLE or similar webbing for attaching extra pouches and such.

(it is aware that there is tons and tons of military style "assault pack" backpacks which would fit this but it is not sure which are properly good)

Interesting. Increasing the taxes on the super rich has not been shown to increase their relocation to other countries.

being a leftist from a post-soviet country on the internet is tiring.

you also get shit from your peers who despite knowing you're anarchist think you want to bring ussr back

tired, boss. so tired

I recently started taking transdermal oestradiol gel (specifically Oestrogel) which comes in a bottle with a pump!

The instructions say the pump always dispenses 1.25 g of gel, so I was curious as to how it managed to be precise. One x-ray later and it turns out it's not really any more complicated than a soap dispenser; it even has air bubbles inside the gel reservoir, which is a bit disappointing.

Thursday I met another trans friend for coffee and catching up when a customer at the shop did a transphobia, angrily yelling slurs at us.

The staff was quick on it, kicking him out, banning him, sharing security camera footage of him with the other employees to make sure he didn’t return on a different shift, and apologizing. Thank you, staff.

Another customer got up to stand near us in case things got worse. Thank you, random dude.

This is how you ally. With actions. Thank you, allies.
