They just asked a few people if they thought it was written by an LLM. /s

I mean, you can tell when something is written from ChatGPT, especially if the person isn’t using it for editing, but is just asking it to write a complaint or request. It is likely they are only counting the most obvious, so the actual count is higher.

Wait, so mandating return to office in the middle of flu season has resulted in more people getting sick? Who could have seen that coming?

You’re exactly right. A one day boycott doesn’t work. For it to work your need to have a day when you don’t consume anything. But even then, that isn’t feasible.

Cancel your subscriptions, and don’t start them up again.

Divest your 401k from US money markets.

Get involved in your local government and start focusing on ways that your community can provide local services.

If you know where a morally corrupt CEO is going to be staying, let your local Luigi know.

These aren’t easy things, but they can be effective.

Think of it as a methadone clinic for doomscrollers.

Is facial hair even cool any more?

There’s a reason no one lives in fucking Wyoming. Why should they move from their seaside country to middle of nowhere Wyoming?

Let’s move them to Florida’s South East Coast. There’s hardly anyone important there, and we can just relocate the people there a bit further inland.

Ah yes, just what we need in a burgeoning online community: people discouraging interactions.

HereBeter is saying that trump is a legal criminal… you know, since he has been found guilty of many crimes, yet hasn’t had to have any consequences.

This is a lot like how our government is all concerned about National Security™ when it comes to pretty much anything else, but a bipartisan bill, supported by both of the last 2 presidents, and upheld unanimously by our current dysfunctional Supreme Court, with National Security™ as the excuse, and we still have Tiktok.

Laws are only there so the ruling class can keep us in line and them in power, and they will never be enforced homogenously.

Wait, so would this be in exchange for Greenland?

/S

it simply produces things with bugs

And the small companies will realize that you need to start investing in your QA again - because NO ONE does adequate QA any more. Every piece of software I interact with these days is shit. If you are a developer, I’m talking to you: your code might be great, but the overall product is shit because no one is adequately testing the functionality. I get it, Testing is expensive… but now that you need fewer developers, hire some QA engineers. Just because we’ve moved on to ‘continuous improvement’ doesn’t mean we can’t do better.

skeet (the generally accepted term for a Bluesky post)

Can we just agree that they are all just “posts”? No more “tweets”, “Toots”, “xeets”, etc… it’s just a post.

I hope you don’t mind, but I was inspired!

I love it!

This is one I made the day he was caught, it still makes me giggle.

The problem with getting working class candidates is they are too busy working.

I’ve been considering ordering a bunch of these.

Mr. Biden said if Hezbollah or anyone else breaks the deal and poses a direct threat to Israel, then Israel retains the right to self-defense.

And if Israel breaks the deal then the Lebanese people have a right to self defense, too.

It means you’re still in consideration.

I know when I’ve hired in the past, if I like the first person I interview I still try to interview at least one more person so I actually have a choice. If I don’t like someone I’ll immediately let them know.

The only time I’ve ever had my food stolen was when I was working as a deckhand on a tug. I’ve been working white collar jobs for the past 25 years and haven’t had to deal with it since.

Also, my solution was to spray degreaser on my food the next day and wait to see who complains. Turns out, I’m the one who got in trouble for that even though I put a ‘do not eat’ sign in the food.
