  • Watching the actual Daily Show interview would probably be more helpful than this article was:

    https://youtu.be/oaDTiWaYfcM?si=yKBpKqFXKgYxvyDL

    It was a really good interview, Lina Khan was essentially a guest that Apple TV had blacklisted from Jon’s now cancelled show, they break down some of the ways the Tech Robber Barons have been undermining regulations and laws, while making boatloads of money and manipulating the stock market. They then go into some of Jon’s issues with Apple, his former employer, and why they had Lina Khan blacklisted as a guest on Jon’s now cancelled show, and after hearing her speak I can see why, she’s smart, and knows the topic well, and has some good ideas on how to fix some of the issues we have with regulating and controlling not just tech, but all out of control businesses. Then they discuss AI, how corporate leadership is going to fuck workers over completely using AI, and how AI is currently just a bunch of bullshit being used as an excuse to take our jobs and pay us less.










  • Isn’t this similar to the Chinese social credit score system?

    It does kind of make sense though, if you’re an idiot online that takes chances with your employment and long term prospects then that can affect your long term earning potential in a similar way that getting a felony could. The main issue would be what’s the limit? And how could a person recover their life from this? Because when you ruin your business and borrowing potential you have bankruptcy, will social credit be mixed into bankruptcy?

    I know it’s a bad example since he’s the richest idiot in the world, but take Elon’s ever worsening online posts, his racism and antisemitism are starting to be pushed back against by his companies, investors, and clientele, however limited the push back is so far, especially with Space X.








  • Okay so what are you getting from either of those that you can’t get from attending the same on Teams/Zoom etc.?

    Workshops also just feel like school and the presenters always talk too fast, quiet, or accented for my hearing and ADHD to make it worth me going to one, some dedicated study time always was the better route for me.

    Meanwhile strategy sesh’s are just conversations with an end goal, nothing difficult about that at all.

    One thing people who are against work from home have to realize is that not everybody functions the same, some people do better remotely, others need the office.

    I just wish we could be treated like adults and work in the way we feel most comfortable and efficiently without being mistreated over it and without being astroturfed against it by entities like the Wall St. journal and Bloomberg, sorry rich people but I just don’t give a fuck about your corporate property values.
