Anytime anyone brags about working obscene hours per week, remember that one of the biggest advocates for the 40 hour workweek was Henry Ford — and not because he cared about the workers

It's simply not good for productivity to work people to the bone

I think we're gonna learn how badly we fucked up regulating this stuff when the next 10 years turn into streamers and smart tv manufacturers both trying to extort each other for bridge tolls, a version of cable carriage fees on steroids

i unironically believe we should pay government people extremely well and that it's not necessarily bad if they're wealthy but "simply ignoring conflicts of interest" is just pure grifter shit. you are going to take a white house job and then give yourself money. you think i am too dumb to see that.
What can you even say? Obviously they’re full of shit, but I am impressed at the emptiness of this post. You knew he was laughing while typing it out. Just utter trash.

You could put this tweet on toilet paper

Congress Dusts Off ‘Think Of The Children’ Playbook To Push Internet Censorship Bills
Twenty years ago, John Jonik released one of the best political cartoons ever regarding attempts to censor and control the internet. In it, a character dressed up as Uncle Sam is placing a gift box labeled “Control of Internet Speech” on a counter. Behind it, a man dressed in a suit, labeled “Corporate Media” is asking Uncle Sam “How would you like this wrapped?”

My bipartisan IRS MATH Act with Senator Bill Cassidy is now law.

Now, if you mess up your taxes, the IRS has to tell you where you made a mistake and how to fix it.

No more spending a fortune on lawyers or hours to find errors.

That means fewer headaches and more money in your pocket.

Flock caught giving ALPR images to gig workers on Upwork to check for quality problems, and we found out because they left the portal tracking all the gig work and the training deck exposed to the Internet.

Woof.
New from 404 Media: Flock is using overseas gig workers to build its surveillance AI. Flock has cameras in thousands of communities around the US which can detect vehicles and people. We found gig workers in the Philippines are reviewing footage to classify people

The Thief series are some of my favorite horror games ever.

Absolutely immaculate vibes. Masterpieces all around.
Today marks 26 years since Thief: The Dark Project first hit the shelves and defined the stealth genre. Share this and tell us what was your first or the most memorable experience playing Thief.

And to expound on point A I find the use cases of producing a post-truth society and displacing human workers from jobs that need a human touch (i.e. the arts) the most insidious
the problems with AI are, in order:

(a) what people do with it;
(b) what it does;
(c) the power it uses;
(d) everything else

This cute and wholesome artist was just banned from PayPal. No nsfw in sight. Just paypros being power hungry dickheads. Go follow and support. Fuck censorship.
I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do
