Folks it pains me to ask so bluntly, but could anyone use some work doing by me? I've got to find income for three months until my next royalty payment, and I'm not having much luck.

🇬🇧 📢 We fully support our comrades at IWGB in the face of unacceptable union busting from Rockstar. In the UK and anywhere else in the world, we offer our full solidarity to those who have to fight just to reclaim their rights as workers ✊

This is the most ruthless act of union busting in the history of the UK games industry. Yesterday, @rockstargames.com unfairly fired over 30 employees for union activity.

We won't back down, and we're not scared - we will fight for every member to be reinstated.
BREAKING: Yesterday Grand Theft Auto VI maker Rockstar Games fired dozens of people, all of whom were involved in union efforts. A British union calls it "blatant and ruthless" union-busting. Take-Two Interactive says it was due to misconduct.

Similarly, LLM output is text-shaped, but it's produced by a system whose functionings are totally orthogonal to the meaning-making process that is involved in the manufacture of *actual* texts. In this model, occupying the shape of a text is sufficient; the function of a text is never considered.

Il y a 2 ans, j'ai trouvé que j'avais pas assez de boulot, et j'ai fait un projet avec la classe de CP de ma fille. Chaque élève a imaginé pourquoi il n'avait pas pu faire ses devoirs, et je l'ai illustré. Après, ça a donné un petit livre qui a été distribué à chacun.

honestly fu** you if you think gazans are only allowed to ask for help to cover their very basic necessities when they’re starving or being killed, calling a gazan a grifter for trying to secure her education proves that you don’t see gazans as humans who deserve to live equally.
