  • It’s been clear for some time that centrists are sick of being screamed at and called nazis by an increasingly noisy far-left contingent.

    If you genuinely think the Republican Party are fascist nazis… I mean there is simply no discussion that will be productive.

  • Not American, but “less worse than the other guy,” doesn’t seem like a winning argument to me.

  • Google and Microsoft consume more energy than 100+ countries | Windows Central

  • Are we talking consumed for their own use? Or consumed as part of delivering cloud services to their customers?

    These are very different things. The former would be horrifying the latter would be misleading in the extreme.

  • Switzerland mandates all software developed for the government be open sourced

    Jump

  • This doesn’t seem like a big deal?

    The fact the code is open sourced is much less significant than the fact now the Swiss government will need to negotiate complete ownership of any software they commission.

    That’s going to make things more expensive for them, and limit the vendors prepared to work with them.

    Their systems, their call 🤷‍♂️

  • Your competitors are willing to work 5 days.

    The studies mean nothing, they’re all done in vacuums with government or very sheltered (or overfunded) companies.

    It cannot work until it’s legislated (like the 40 hr work week was).

  • This old chestnut again.

    It’s always some government department or tech company sitting on a pile of VC money.

    Easy to make it work when the people were barely working in the first place, and with no competitive pressure.

    Let’s see it at a construction project with a real deadline, or at a business in any kind of competitive industry.

    Does anyone actually think that day 5 of a work week has a zero or even negative productivity value?
