@HeavenlyPossum@kolektiva.social borders and visa requirements target people of the global south disproportionately. Every country with strict visa policies and tight borders have been stealing and extracting resources from other nations.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social I deleted my X account. I don't care if all the planet is using X (Twitter). I also canceled my advertising campaigns on X. I won't fund someone who is dividing people and inciting violence against innocent people while he is sucking entire economy dry.

@shibacomputer@post.lurk.org When LinkedIn asked me to upload my passport, I refused. Few months later, I still don't have LinkedIn. This breach further proves my point. It is mind baffling for me that companies are still asking for my LinkedIn as if it's somehow a requirement.

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social I don't even understand why people are on LinkedIn. Read about how their KYC partner Persona had a data breach recently and they are still asking people for passports to post a meme.

@thomasfuchs@hachyderm.io The fundamental problem is that our world was constructed based on the concepts of copyright and privacy. AI developers are treating it us "What's mine is mine, what's yours is ours".

@JamesBaker@social.openrightsgroup.org I'm all in on human rights. This is why, I've been advocating for applying strict AI security and governance standards. If anything I can do to help, hit me!

I became numb: 2001 2009 2020 2026 Btw: I'm still recovering from 2009

@NanoRaptor@bitbang.social wow that's amazing! Never imagined best practices turned into a song but kudos!

@GossiTheDog@cyberplace.social if you hear someone talking about 2009 being a difficult year, you know already ....

@mattblaze@federate.social NYC have always been fascinating to me; I hope one day to visit and see the city.

@BenAveling@infosec.exchange @catsalad@infosec.exchange what do people in America normally do on US independence day?

@catsalad@infosec.exchange I've been there before. Burnout is real. The fix for me was moving to self employment but I know this is not a universal fix.

@catsalad@infosec.exchange am not in America but seriously, you guys push to prod on Fridays?

@catsalad@infosec.exchange 😆

@david_chisnall@infosec.exchange as old school, I got used to looking up answers myself from different websites. Sometimes, the AI is useful for obvious stuff but 1/5 times the AI suggestions are inaccurate.

@haveibeenpwned@infosec.exchange another reason why Zero Trust is needed!

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange Despite AI companies' stated goal or vision to kill coding, I think that there will still be demand on developers who solve complex algorithmic problems. The catch here is that there will be 10s of thousands of LeetCoders applying to the same job positions. Coding won't disappear but writing boilerplate code no longer pays unfortunately. Nevertheless, I admire your patience; once the world becomes vibe, you might be the last Dev standing to fix all our garbage.

@skeletor@mas.to When coworkers justify toxic behavior as "Corporate", I became self employed and one day if my company will become large, I'll have zero tolerance for toxicity; and I'll redefine corporate into ethics and moral behavior first. Humans and people first.

@openrightsgroup@social.openrightsgroup.org terrible analogy but it sounds like "Cars cause accidents and can be used for crimes, so let's ban cars"

@tante@tldr.nettime.org lmao. Remember when people stopped watching TV and ads chased us to YouTube and social media? Let me give you a silly example: If you have a flower that smells nice, you give 2 to 2 different individuals. The first is your loved one who will feel happy. The 2nd is a business person. The business person will not enjoy the flower's smell, they will turn it into a factory and begin selling bottled flowers as perfume. I think you get the idea.
