  • Microsoft revokes cloud services from Israel’s Unit 8200

  • yeah, it's quite big, because in a way it's the biggest win so far for the BDS in American tech.

  • A ‘demoralizing' trend has computer science grads out of work — even minimum wage jobs. Are 6-figure tech careers over?

  • I unionize people in the tech sector. Childish nerds are much harder to work with than anybody else.

    I would pick a coked out analyst over an emacs user every day

  • nerds are often egotistical, selfish and individualistic. Let's kick them out and unionize instead

  • Her name wasn't Hind Rajab, so barely anyone will ever remember her or make a documentary about her.

  • The Catholic Church uses "martyr" to define "innocent who didn’t fight, but were murdered unjustifiably". For sure some nuance is missing, but it's full of martyrs saints that just got killed because they were Christians.

  • Young Workers Haven’t Been Replaced by AI—Economists Are Just Looking for Them in the Wrong Places

    Jump

  • So the author’s argument is that youth have just gone to gig work instead of traditional jobs. OK, maybe true, but first of all, this is not a good thing on its own either. And secondly, we have to consider why gig work even exists, aside from being a fresh new way to exploit workers and deny them the traditional protections of the labor market. Because there is a specific reason gig work exists right at this very transitional moment in the workforce, and I’ll give you a spoiler: It exists because of AI.

    Considering the author is possibly the most relevant scholar on (against?) platform work, I'm quite sure he would agree with you. The article implies that AI is deskilling and displacing workers and that's intrinsically a bad thing.

  • I didn't mention some other systems, but for bigger campaigns ActionNetwork is one of the most used tools and has a lot of integrations, for instance with N8N. I do run some systems with ActionNetwork, mostly for newsletters. The thing of using N8N as a glue layer is that you can integrate with more specialized tools if the need arises, maintaining your custom systems for more niche cases.

  • You're focusing too much on the WordPress example. There are a dozen tools mentioned in the article that will clarify what's possible.

  • A CMS is a specific type of no-code software. N8N or Appsmith are definitely not a CMS

  • Alterity without difference: the non-identity of the Augustinian Left

    Jump

  • Difference, in this context, doesn't imply otherness. You can be different but fully understandable. An instance of the same idea, if you want to speak platonically. In my previous example, two images of the same thing encoded in .png are different, but not other from each other.

  • Alterity without difference: the non-identity of the Augustinian Left

    Jump

  • Alterity means "otherness", for some subjective definition of "other". In this case political other, meaning something or somebody that doesn't belong or can be interpreted from the status quo.

    Imagine a picture of a recipe on how to build a molotov encoded in .webm, in a world where most people only have .PNG software

  • How can I join the resistance ?

    Jump

  • This is exactly what happens under fascism way before digitalization. Do you think they care if they make mistakes? They round up and jail random people if they are not sure. You really should read how fascism played out in Italy, Germany or Chile because you seem dangerously misguided

  • How can I join the resistance ?

    Jump

  • yeah, that's a microscopic element of privacy in a situation where the state can come and kill you with no accountability. You still have a body, you still need to inhabit a space, eat food and exist in the world. Encryption won't help you with that.

  • How can I join the resistance ?

  • No problem with that. My problem is with people who expect to start from theory as if that it's a relatable and normal thing to do.

  • How can I join the resistance ?

    Jump

  • most working class people cannot read well, let alone theory, have no material time to read, or if, they do, they don't have the mental energy or continuity to get to the end of it, grapple alone on how to turn that into action and find a path for themselves. It's very individualistic, good for the privileged who organize out of aspiration rather than out of necessity. Any serious org, to the people coming to offer help, should answer: "this is John, he will teach you how to do X and Y, and why this is important. Get to work". Anything else is designed for an intellectual, individualistic minority that never gets shit done.

  • "I want to help"

    "Read several books first".

    Are you aware of how disgusting and classist it sounds?

  • lol, there's no privacy in a fascist State because the state doesn't feel compelled to respect the law and doesn't recognize fundamental rights. Nobody is going to leave you alone. Get real.
