The majority don’t learn that the only reason we have a weekend, 38 hour work week, maternity leave, sick leave, annual leave, severance, OHS, etc etc is because workers fought, and died, for all of them.

The state and corporations worked together to crush labor movements, using both the police and military, right up until they were passed into law. Apple won’t do shit about this unless it impacts image/profitability.

Every time I’ve joined a large group chat, I’ve always wished there were hundreds more people talking over the top of each other to make the whole communication thing more efficient!

Moreso the US oligarchy stealing tax payer funds and funneling them into the military industrial complex; using the guise of “aid” to conceal the reality.

I have zero doubt when we’re told “the US is the biggest supplier of foreign aid” much of that “aid” would make the average citizen feel the opposite of pride.

If you think this is common, especially in the Philippines, you got mental illness.

Conservatives around the world are waging a last ditch effort (as always) on behalf of the fossil fuel oligarchs — against cleaner, cheaper, democratized, renewable energy generation.

They don’t want you to be able to power your home and car with the solar panels on your roofs. They want you to pay their cronies; a centralized generator, dependent on finite resources where all mining operations are also under their control, who can dictate the supply and demand of energy… meaning they can dictate the price of everything in society from the top down; the way they do with oil and all other fossils.

Try the user agent switcher add-on. The volume of times I’ve changed my agent to chrome and had a site work perfectly is infuriating.

Bollocks

95! Fuck time flies. Sadly he’ll exit the world with it in a far worse state than when he was most active. I’m quite confident that the same will be true for all who read this, whenever that might be.

Username checks out

Anything to maintain the insatiable status quo of increased growth, consumption, and profitability while stretching all expenses as thin as possible.

There’s very little meat in these gym mats

Isn’t “democracy” great under capitalism?

Corporations have established fake judicial systems to steal our money, behind closed doors, over profits they were never entitled to, and people still believe they’re “free” — all while the same perpetrators are actively killing the only place we can survive in the known universe, and setting up all current and future generations for a life of suffering.

And people believed they’d escape the days of power-tripping mods by exiting Reddit.

At least with the festive there are no alternatives.

One standout statistic was that projects with clear requirements documented before development started were 97 percent more likely to succeed. In comparison, one of the four pillars of the Agile Manifesto is “Working Software over Comprehensive Documentation.”

Requirements ≠ Documentation. Any project with CLEAR requirements will be most likely to succeed. The hard part is the clear requirements, and not deviating.

One Agile developer criticized the daily stand-up element, describing it to The Register as “a feast of regurgitation.”

The inability of management to conduct productive meetings is even more well-known than their inability to conduct a decent hiring process, and we all know how broken that is.

The study’s sample and methodology are not linked so I suspect a huge bias, in that the projects succeeding sans-Agile have been successful without it long term, while the Agile projects chose Agile because they were unsuccessful pre-adoption — you don’t adopt agile if you were already successfully delivering projects.

We’re a cancerous parasite, destroying our host.

My face when it turns out every multinational corporation is run by criminals.

That’s what happens when you reward criminal behaviour with wealth.

They know. That’s why they’re been sowing the seeds of fascism around the world — establishing dictatorships is preferable to them than any sort of wealth redistribution.

When people talk about the illegitimacy of democracy under capitalism, this scarecrow and her late husband are why.

How can democracy co-exist in an economic system where orgs are run like dictatorships from the top down, and individuals hold more wealth, power, and influence than entire nation states — despite those orgs employing, and being dependent on, thousands or millions of workers?

He’s so indebted to Putin he won’t care. Supporting Ukraine is not an option for Trump.

The R cult won’t care either, as proven by their consistent support throughout efforts to hamstring weapons transfers to Ukraine. Remember “I’d rather be a Russian, than a Democrat”… When they tell you who they are, believe them.

Just corporatocracy things

Lifelong sociopath, be’s sociopath. Everyone surprised!
