‘Employees are more likely to resign due to a disturbed work-life balance’ byteseu.com/673885/ #Nederland #Netherlands



So #Trump “suggested there could be a place in American politics for the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers”?

America teeters on the brink of something profoundly wicked.

The good thing is that the corrupt government elected officials will find out that thug life is not all it's cracked up to be.

Don't even need commentary.

If it wasn't a Nazi salute why did ELON CENSOR IT OUT WHEN HE POSTED THE CLIP TO TWITTER.

I fired up one of my virtual machines to get into Fakebook to check on a thread I started in a group, and I'm keeping that VM and version of Librewolf open because I'm morbidly curious if Meta's going to delete my comment since I actually typed out the words "Cambridge Analytica."

I got to ride the mag-lev in #Shanghai, where the in-car speedometer reached 430 km/h. A lot of tech, and electricity, for results that conventional HSR can now achieve.

Just re-upping this fantastic explainer thread, on how an EO cannot just rename an international body of water, and we need to stop describing patently illegal EOs as "doing" the things they legally cannot do. And if any big international corp (Apple, Google) buckles, hope other countries push back

I watched with great interest this retelling of the development history of X Window by Keith Packard from back in 2020.

Among the many nuggets of wisdom one can glean from this presentation is the selfish and ultimately self-destructive struggle between Sun, DEC, HP, and others in establishing a dominant Unix windowing system. Instead of solving the *developer* problem of writing software that can run on a large number of workstations, they quickly took the successful (and open) X11 implementation and each subverted it to “build their castle walls taller”. By refusing to cooperate to serve their primary customers, they left the market wide open for Microsoft Windows to take over.

This retelling seems oddly parallel to today’s oligarchs refusing to care for their societies, which approximately equals their customer base. By mistreating and underpaying their workers, they destroy the very consumer buying power their companies need to survive.

“By mistreating and underpaying their workers, they destroy the very consumer buying power their companies need to survive.”

The capitalists are so eager to fire their workers, but who will be left to buy their shit?

@nuthatch Even Henry Ford, the unrepentant Nazi and antisemite, realized that he needed to pay his workers well and afford them reasonable hours so they could afford to buy his products.
