Woah! Is this the new lemmy shit-a-roo?

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Yes, but it forces all of us to look for and construct a better alternative that's not tied to the whims of the tyrants that runs corporations.

Reminds me of this I've seen in lemmy: https://ploum.net/2023-06-19-more-rms.html

And I feel like I agree. Let's spend our time coding more strong copyleft. Not because it's cheaper but because it's better.

Don’t worry too much about what your team members would think about you. Your team members might not like you for this, but they would respect you. And most importantly, your project manager will know you are a good, confident developer and better than others.”

What kind of crap advice is that? To just learn communication and claim the credits for yourself?

Yeah, you can get a bigger share of the small pie of budget recognition the company will set for your manager to split between you and your team. So instead of a sub-inflation salary review you get a slightly sub-inflation and everyone else gets their slightly lower?

Remember friends. Alone we beg, together we bargain. It's not unlikely to see collective negotiations get 15% across the board! Stop settling for just being "above others". Raise the bar for everyone!

It's past time for us to negotiate as teams of engineering instead of individual devs that think each can just move jobs and get a higher contract. Some people can, but the best of us can't, because of just how stressful job hunting is.

We only get the fairness we fight for. And as software engineers we have fought for nothing, so far. We surf a bull market and think we got paid for our skills and merit. Surprise: we didn't. How many people have made way more money than the best of us, just dancing the money dance?

Let's please strengthen our unions, so that we can negotiate when they try to push these shitty layoff seasons.

Sorry for the rant. :)

Not evil, but not the most common or expected way to modularise thing in js/ts, so your colleagues may have to think for a moment before they get used to your code. It's valid solution, though.

I think you should do what's comfortable to you, but also try to adapt to the common language in each of the code ases you will be working on, so that everyone is on the same page.

Typescript is useful, jsdoc type casting is useful, modules are useful.

Good luck in your journey!

Oh! I forgot that existed!

I just go to reddit to upvote protest posts and unsubscribe from scab subreddits.

Lemmy has everything I need. :D

In the meantime, why don't you crosspost the posts you miss here? Blatant stealing content was appreciated in reddit, and I'm sure this community will take it with open arms!

I agree it's a big high profile event to write a story about.

But it wouldn't be put upfront covers with that level of screen real estate if each of the individual publications didn't have vested interests on it. Maybe with a few exceptions.

Not necessarily coordinated, but like a discoordinated lynch mob, just... Not holding back?

Traditional media outlets are not exactly in the friendliest of terms with social media platforms in the realm of disputing ad revenue.

That's an institutional attack from content producers against a platform. In the limit publishers could host their own lemmy instances.

Interesting and rare thing to see...

It would probably be worth it to have that period be configurable by instance admins...

It's very cool to meet people again in different sublemmyts. Feels like the federation thing is for realz.
