Twitter handles aren’t domain names, lol. These tweets you see linked to in articles will hang around for half a decade before the fediverse full on replaces it (no it won’t be threads you can’t fucking read a thread without a login it’s a piece of shit)
You’re forgetting the fact that your work has zero value in a vacuum though. If you enjoy your employment and are well remunerated for it, then a cut for the enabler isn’t actually unreasonable. Having said that, the cut taken is usually way too high, but that’s another discussion…
Well that’s not really true… It’s very common for employees to be granted shares in some form or another, and of course your salary comes from some proportion of the firm’s profits. Don’t get me wrong, if I could just work on open source stuff all the time and have money magically appear in my account I’d be chuffed, but in the absence of a market, one arises - some people don’t want the hassle of figuring out what people actually want and are happy to lend their arms to the oars in exchange for someone else to figure out where to go, and of course some people feel like they have a good vision as to what will be productive but don’t have the ability to create the whole edifice themselves.
Regulation is, of course, important - in a democracy, the theory is that everyone has a right to vote for a government who will in turn protect their interests in what can otherwise become a very leveraged position for the employer - but the notion that every CEO is inherently a leech on society simply by virtue of being an employer seems a little too lacking in nuance for me to get onboard here.
In the context of the real world, I think it’s unquestionably the case that director-level positions are over-rewarded and insufficiently taxed and regulated, but I see that more as a failure of implementation; I’m not sure how people could ever cooperate on the diversity of projects that currently exist if the employer/employee relationship we’re forbidden. A lot of people are simply unable or unwilling to play the role of general; not everyone falls into that category of course, and it would be an interesting world if one could just join a collective effort and from the get-go be as highly rewarded and as listened to as the project’s progenitors, but it can often take a long time to build up context…
Anyway what I’m saying here is that dictating a global framework for the structure of collective effort is genuinely really hard, and that’s before you even get into the issues of what mandate is required for a body to be able to stipulate such a framework to begin with
Large language models (LLMs) like GPT-4 can identify a person’s age, location, gender and income with up to 85 per cent accuracy simply by analysing their posts on social media....
I’ve lost everything and I don’t know how to get it back. How can I repair my system all I have is a usb with slax linux. I am freaking out because I had a lot of projects on their that I hadn’t pushed to github as well as my configs and rice. Is there any way to repair my system? Can I get a shell from systemd?
Oh my God. Flashbacks to the first time I fucked up my Arch installation like a decade ago. This is a solid run-through of a very character-building exercise 😂
