@eniko Coupled with the fact that the mandate has come down on high in many companies that performance metrics are now being tied to AI usage. (Likely at the recommendation of some useless consultant from McKinsey, Accenture, or a similar outfit.) Easy to not give a shit about the quality of your code when your performance metrics are tied to the bulk number of lines committed.

@hjvt @gabrielesvelto That's because it really didn't for much of the working class in the US, and instead of moving away from the trickle-down scam that lead to it, our "leaders" triple-downed on it.

@eniko So many devs who know better still don't give a shit at their corporate job because their bosses don't. So why should they be motivated to?

@rbreich Bezos' wife has the Mar-a-Lago look going too.

@eniko If something fails in weird ways later, then there will be finger pointing back and forth between various teams and it will basically end up being the equivalent of a magic 8-ball when it comes to decide which team or individual takes the blame for it anyway.

@Secret_Squirrel @molly0xfff My wild guess is that they just want to validate the email addresses are valid and just to test the servers. I think the idea of storing data on private servers owned by Musk & friends is to shield them from FOIA requests or congressional / legal oversight down the road.

@aral@mastodon.ar.al As an American, I encourage EU Citizens to take notice and do as urged. Trump is a criminal and fascist. It will suck but the EU and the rest of the world need to expel US diplomats, nationalize assets owned by US businesses, kick out any US troops, and basically stop trading with us.

@aral@mastodon.ar.al Make it very clear that as long as Trump remains in the White House, these sanctions will be in place. Trump has already committed multiple impeachable offenses in the last 5 days and will commit many more. Congress will have no shortage of very justifiable reasons removing him if the political tide turns against him.

@QasimRashid@mastodon.social Abbot is evil, as are those who continue to support him.

@waldoj@mastodon.social It isn't just VA. Rates are going up across the country to subsidize the tech bros.
