  • He was born with a gift of laughter and a sense that the world was mad.

    Scaramouche, by Rafael Sabatini

  • Golf joke, right? /s

  • Congratulations!

  • They always said the South would rise again.

  • If anyone has ever wondered what it would look like if tech giants went all in on "brute force" programming, this is it. This is what it looks like.

  • Others have given some simple suggestions that you should try first, but if this is a recurring issue, you could consider seeking an opinion from a doctor. If you have some untreated, underlying condition holding you back, no amount of healthy living or caffeine is going to improve things in the long run.

    For example, it's possible to develop allergies late in life, which could lead to grogginess and headaches.

  • They are responding to the body of the post, not the title. There is text as well.

  • Funny, I thought of it as geological carcinization.

  • And why wouldn't they back it? Without worker protections, they'll be able to just pocket those tips.

  • Even then, they'll just call it deepfakes.

  • The founder of SaaS business development outfit SaaStr has claimed AI coding tool Replit deleted a database despite his instructions not to change any code without permission.

    Sounds like an absolute diSaaStr...

  • Party of small government, huh?

  • We can only speculate about the meaning to/intent of whoever drew it. The reality is that regardless of intent or personal interpretation, if anyone in the workplace recognizes those images as having that kind of meaning and is made uncomfortable by it, that constitutes workplace harassment, whether it's intentional or not. If the company doesn't take it seriously, they will be liable for legal action. At least in the US - I assume most other English-speaking countries have similar laws. So it's not really an overreaction - they need to protect themselves as much as their employees.

    Whether you or I ascribe that meaning to the images or not is immaterial - clearly, someone does. Given that the images have nothing to do with work anyway, the only thing that matters is whether they genuinely bother people.

  • I mean...I didn't watch it either, but I can't picture a workplace where it would be considered acceptable and professional behavior to draw pictures of impaled women all over the place.

  • If I'm following the article right, it crawled from 2013 to 2021, and smashed at some point between February and June 2025.

    What I want to know is, with Linux increasing in market share, does that mean we'll need to start worrying about viruses on Linux now?

  • It's not really impostor syndrome - he really is unfit, he's not just imagining it. Definitely some kind of deep insecurity/inferiority complex or something along those lines, though.

  • That was an interesting analysis, thanks! I feel it also reinforces my original observation. The East India Company was nothing, if not a system of control that ultimately failed.

  • Probably, but history repeats itself. That conflict was not the first time the line between business and public interests was muddled with the result of large scale warfare and oppression, nor the last, so the same themes are relevant. And the meme has a very explicit focus on tea.

  • This feels like a meme about the East India Company.
