@janeadams@datavis.social @trdebunked@tech.lgbt I realize it’s probably not the case.. but right now that sounds like a great eventuality (where's my nosepick emoji) (specifically re vc firms evaporating and big tech feeling the impact on their own decisions- certainly not the impact to academic reach and not saying one is worth the other)

Tax the super rich; immediately improve your quality of life for the short and long term. This can fund social services and disaster relief, create availability of assets and reverse the redistribution of wealth to the ultrawealthy, allowing the average person to gain resources. Also: rent control; eviction freezes, regulations on corporate home ownership and algorithmic price gouging.

@jaykuo@universeodon.com @czarbucks@vmst.io who will become nextgen seniors when they no longer hire juniors between ai and insourcing/outsourcing. And will the deteriorating landscape here mean fewer people interested in insourcing? To ha-joon chang’s point; prioritizing shareholders is bad for the longterm sustainability of the business (since some business reason is often listed for justification of decisions like layoffs, etc)
