  • I've told bosses before they can have either my early hours or my best hours, but not both. There's so much waste in our work lives trying to fit to some picture of productivity that isn't actually real. We just play the parts we're required to while getting nothing done.

  • Plus the fundamental insanity of saying efficiency is a single monolithic thing that can only be effectively worked on by a single person. The only reason you have that is because the type of coder these people want to abuse is the same type of person who's bad at designing code. They just keep stumbling on subsuming additional features into the monolith because encapsulation and code design is uninteresting to their reward centers. That's why multiple people can't work on it, not because there's some fundamental inability to effectively partition work during the production of innovative software.

  • We can't simultaneously be in a society where productivity goes up faster than wages and AI is going to provide labor for free and one that is worried we won't have enough resources to support the elderly in some indeterminate future.

    The retired have already had a lifetime of wages stolen from them to pad capitalists' bank accounts. The excess productivity is there, it's just not available to the broad tax base. Take that back and there's plenty to go around.

  • The alarms are not going off for women, they're going off for pregnant women, but all these "whatabout men" comments are ignoring that non-pregnant women are also in the ignored group and just making it about men's welfare being discredited. Gives MRA vibes.

  • No they didn't. You just posted a made up a number and did it in the service of dehumanizing a minority population. And the people getting deported (at least now) didn't vote for anyone, they aren't citizens.

    This comment is sus as hell. Exactly something a right winger would post to cause mistrust in opposition groups. And even if it isn't, you need to learn some media literacy if you're just parroting an obviously fake percentage like that.

  • This applies to the intolerant trying to gain power to inflict their intolerance on the wider society, not performing odious acts within their own families. It doesn't make sense here at all. We shouldn't tolerate murders because they're murders, not because we're going to end up with a surprise caliphate.

  • A) My student government certainly didn't have a budget worthy of boycotting anything.

    B) Do it anyway. Boycotts are speech, you're in California, and students aren't obligated to do anything because the school would prefer it. Hell, do it because they told you not to.

    C) Don't boycott a specific country. Boycott all countries found to be plausibly engaging in genocide. Or all countries currently occupying extraterritorial land. Or all countries currently engaged in large scale offensive military operations. Give an exception for the US of A because you're so patriotic. Israel is in a small club of rogue nations and we don't generally do business with them.

  • This is very clearly a first amendment violation. The state can't dictate how you refer to yourself or how others choose to refer to you. This is another one of those cases that shows the judiciary is infested with people who do not even care to pretend to be practicing law anymore.
