Can do it slowly, push for management to do it, or ask to get paid more to do it. Most of the time training people isn't in your job description and you still get forced to do it, whether it's hospitality, retail, engineering

I don't think it's that complex really - in economic downturns big companies do mass layoffs. It's standard capitalist behavior to do cuts during recessions and hire more during booms.

It's similar logic to keeping the unemployment rate at ~4%

 

Note this write up is far from perfect buts it's a pretty good article to get normie coworkers a bit more class conscious

Does codium support the same GitHub integrations as VS code? I'm quite enjoying GitHub copilot and Actions integrations, among others.

I'd go with gitlab instead of codeberg if I had the choice. However the same kinda problem exists as social media with critical mass. The mass is with GitHub and until activitypub federation with gitlab becomes feasible you are cutting out contributors, reviewers, etc by not using GitHub.

I'm beginning to like Microsoft more and more when I can't use FOSS. GitHub, typescript and vs code are all great. Also it's getting easy enough to de-google and replace any remaining dependency with the MS suite, which might not be any better but at least google is no longer a monolithic monopoly.

Switch to an instance that isn't federated with all instances by default. For example, hexbear uses an Allowlist not a Blocklist

A fascist kills a Sikh campaigning against the fascist cleansing of his people and you think this is Canada eating shit? I'm surprised Canada even cares. Canada's material interests are so non-existent here. I suppose they're just mad about their false sense of sovereignty being violated.

India has a Hindu fascist government ethnically cleansing Muslims, Sikhs and other minority groups. It's really not a stretch that they organized the death of a Sikh separatist leader.

I explained why

saying you're offended by people not assuming you are a man implies it's bad to be a different gender, or trans/nb. Idk why you are so scared of people confirming your gender. You are the biggest ❄ on the planet and i cannot wait until you melt.

 

My work involves moderating content submitted to our platforms.

Recently one of our Russian contributors submitted something with a hidden message available only in source code that states:

Ukrainian Nazis and their accomplices are not allowed to use this [content]. Za pobedu!

My liberal/socdem/demsoc coworkers were all very concerned about this hidden message. They haven't given a clear reason yet, but I assume they're considering it a breach of our code of conduct to not make political or ethnic attacks. While it's legally and practically unenforceable due to GPL, I don't think banning Nazis from using your content is bad. While "za pobedu" is cringe, I see nothing offensive or wrong with the message. I will be arguing that we don't take action to censor the content. Hopefully it doesn't hurt my standing in this job, as it's generally pretty great and cushy.

PS: the content itself is widely popular among our user base and was made for free by this contributor

edit: well lol this thread gave me lots of practice, thanks libs!

 

Activist legends Blockade Australia anglo-burn have shut down Australian coal ports across the country for 3 consecutive days and counting.

Australia is one of the largest exporters of coal, and is known for genociding and exploiting Aboriginal people to do so. Historically this has included massacres, incarceration, sterilization, poisoning, destruction of ancient cultural artefacts and land theft.
