Fast alle großen Tech Konzerne haben jährliche Kündigungsrunden. Trotzdem stellen sie parallel Leute ein. Das ist Marketing für die Börsen, mehr nicht.
"Five months into its unprecedented dismantling of foreign-aid programs, the #Trump admn has given the order to incinerate #food instead of sending it to people abroad who need it. Nearly 500 metric tons of emergency food—enough to feed about 1.5 million #children for a week—are set to expire tomorrow... Within weeks, two of those sources told me, the food, meant for children... will be ash."

Wenn sich Trump nicht maximal inkompetent anstellt und die Midterms versemmelt (also bis dahin noch ein echtes Wahlsystem existiert), kommt die USA ohne Revolution nicht mehr aus dem Faschismus raus. Wenn bis dahin Trump ein Teil seiner Anhängerschaft abhanden kommt, ist das ziemlich uneingeschränkt positiv.

In Turkish, we say "göz hakkı": it literally means "the right of the eye" - the idea that when someone sees your food, you offer them a share.It's a kind and thoughtful gesture - a blend of empathy and hospitality.
In Turkish culture, you don't just eat in front of others without offering.
Bei Bedarf um das mit Ryanair ergänzen oder das EuGH Urteil gegen die französische Bahn (lustigerweise das auf Basis der DSGVO).
Aber im ersten Schritt würde ich es durchaus freundlich versuchen (schreckt potentielle Kunden ab + juristisches Problempotential). Manchmal hilft das bereits überraschend gut.

The reddit transmasc stuff has turned into "men's rights" conversations and dear lord, does that direction make me uncomfortable.
We were JUST all circulating the memes about men being sad and such.
Like yeah, men struggle with things - because of toxic masculinity and the patriarchy. Not because people hate masculinity specifically.
I legit don't even know how to discuss this topic at this point. I don't wanna silence or talk down to trans men, but jesus christ, I can't reconcile the idea of men talking over women either.
There's a huge intersectionality issue happening here that's gonna cause ripples in the conversation.

I keep seeing this sentiment that desktop Linux has become woke and gay.Desktop Linux has been woke and gay the whole time. Y’all just for some reason decided you suddenly have a problem with it. We didn’t change, you did. Okay some of us came out of the closet. But we’ve been talking about diversity and inclusion for decades and equity has been the entire focal point of the free software movement since like the 70s! It’s woke gay anarcho-communism and you fucking loved it until 2016
#ScribesAndMakers 17. Tell us about a book you like despite its cover (don't show the cover yet)
There was a book by @cstross (The Apocalypse Codex) that had a cover I couldn't stand. I checked the book out twice from the library, but every time I looked at the cover, I just couldn't make myself read it. I finally bought the ebook and, since I could just skip past the cover, and not have to see it every time I picked up the ereader, I could read the story — which I enjoyed immensely.
Yeah, Ace's art department nailed the sleazy televangelist sneer PERFECTLY!

Yup, and now something super fun has started -- some issue with Windows 11, our VPN software, or our smartcard systems has resulted in a fun setup where I have to log in instantly upon starting the system -- or my smartcard credentials won't validate.
And if I lock the screen -- the settings of which I can't control? I can't get back in. My smartcard won't validate.

Usually, #fanfiction writers get inspired by a piece of original work. Lately, I not only got inspired by a film, but also by a fanfiction about it. Which is kind of meta, and I like that. 😊

Today I asked my boss to order four(!)new MacBookPro 16" with 48GB RAM and 2TB SSD, each, for four members of my team (well, three + one, whereas the "one" is joining us on August 1st).
It seems my predecessor didn't really give a damn about what tools his team members had and the team members were not taught to complain about inadequate equipment: one of them, the one doing the main test-automation, had a MacBookPro from 2018(!!) - WTF?? - my boss didn't even now that.
So, now they are all getting state-of-the art MBP with M4 Pro, 48GB RAM and 2TB SSD (and of course, they all also get one external SSD for TimeMachine).
Three of them decided to get US keyboard layout, one prefers German.
Yay!
And my boss' reaction? He sent me the screenshot of the orders he placed - after asking whether I want to wait for the M5 or order the M4 now for three of them 😂😂
@Mimi The thing is, a good manager knows that the most valuable "resource" are the people and their time. Just spending 30 minutes in a call with that employee who has a laptop from 2018 (with 16GB RAM)* showed me how much time and money we'd save by giving her the most powerful MacBookPro that is available now: she had to stop a few other processes to be able to have a video-call with me!
Yep, a good boss knows that the right environment (tools, processes, ...) is key to how successful an employee can be.
*: We're all software engineers, so 16GB is absolutely nothing for what we are doing
