  • Alternate plan: Golden visa program that went live today allowing the rich and powerful to buy citizenship that the fascist right claims has to be protected. Protected from the poor apparently while allowing criminals and thieves from everywhere else to buy their way in. Companies can buy on behalf of their employees, which will of course suppress wages, which is the whole point.

  • He's deliberately making the point accessible because he's writing for all levels of readers, including Americans.

    He won the nobel prize for economics and was one of the few sane voices during the great recession.

  • Great article, brave and correct. Good luck getting the same leaders who blindly believe in a magical trend for this or next quarters numbers; they don't care about things a year away let alone 10.

    I work in HR and was stuck by the parallel between management jobs being gutted by major corps starting in the 80s and 90s during "downsizing" who either never replaced them or offshore them. They had the Big 4 telling them it was the future of business. Know who is now providing consultation to them on why they have poor ops, processes, high turnover, etc? Take $ on the way in, and the way out. AI is just the next in long line of smart people pretending they know your business while you abdicate knowing your business or employees.

    Hope leaders can be a bit braver and wiser this go 'round so we don't get to a cliffs edge in software.

  • Op, "horribly biased toward black and Asian people" as an article summary meaning the opposite of what you intend, it should be "biased against", bias toward something is favoring it.

  • Yeah then Elon can blackmail them instead of someone else

  • Your response is also supposed to be legally in French.

  • What about 6 minute abs?

  • Yeah this is years old; WA and more recently CA and others have pay disclosure as well. Those same shite employers likely can't afford not to hire from entire swaths of the country so will retreat back to their idiotic shells and post/hire for any state as "remote".

  • Which is why tolerance against the intolerant is not effective, and on a pendulum, decreasingly so.

  • Federal funds shall not be used to promote gender ideology, is the platform they're claiming to stand on while defining what is and isn't acceptable gender ideology with federal funds.

    Fascists.

  • That's not sufficient, we need pre-emptive capabilities to fine them on just the mere categorical topic of digital communications. It's up for them to prove they are innocent.

  • Where is our hero robot?

  • Unlike say Google? Why is there an expectation that a group working completely against some of the most powerful actors on the planet, openly, against the grain of mainstream society often and having to bear that responsibility would be charming, at ease?

    I cannot even begin to imagine the mental stress from constantly having to think ahead, in a global David and Goliath, in a maze designed to get you to give up. I probably have half the issues the GOS team does and I can't claim it's for doing anything on the scale of what they are.

  • *Directly funding Google. You are certainly participating in a secondary market for their product you purchase used.

  • Knowing nothing of the situations details, when you're a thorn in the side of the most powerful interests on the planet,it seems reasonable that a small group would face deliberate, concentrated pressure from business to legal and the state and any other mechanism. That's generally what power does, assuming the little guy isn't subsumed.

    What is the evidence of foul play by GOS, or why would they not have a pretty extreme bias of support?

  • Some Southwest pilot is going to enter the cockpit on an upcoming flight and fucking Clippy will be in the 2nd chair.
