I think there's a bit of room between where we are today and "all companies have zero capital".

Workers should exercise their power more, imo. We need more folks willing to put tools down, collectively, over stuff like: * RTO mandates that reduce productivity AND job satisfac…

I think you are part way down the thread. You are assuming there's a company, that there's a CEO. These things are not axiomatic. If you work somewhere where you have control over …

This is a symptom of alienation, imo, not a unique problem from AI. There's a theory that we're becoming increasingly removed from our work -- we have less control over what we get…

Japan, however, has other cultural hangups about things like mental health and vulnerability and difference. I think it's probably a multiple things we need situation -- a robust w…

> I also still get to feel smug because the environmental cost of producing a new electric car is WAY greater than the petrol I’m burning. Citation very much needed. Electric cars …

Do a root cause analysis. I doubt he'd be spending time in solitary for escaping from prison if he was never imprisoned.

27 years in solitary confinement for collecting his tools before probate had cleared is both unconscionable and extremely American. Solitary confinement is torture. 27 years of tor…

Ok, I guess I won't read content from News Media Alliance outlets. I think they are probably fine with that. I think about Steam a lot -- piracy goes down tremendously when it's ea…

Sociopathic post, tbh.

> First, it just reads that way. It's the default style if you ask ChatGPT to write a couple of paragraphs that explain why lightfastness is important. It doesn't read that way to …

As someone who is heavily tattooed, I'd LOVE to see this analysis for tattoo inks. Fun fact: UV light makes tattoo particles smaller, which makes them easier for your lymphatic sys…

Why do you think it's AI? It reads to me like someone who has a special interest and a data driven mindset. I've seen plenty of people "rate every X" in youtube videos or blogs bef…

There's: 1 header image 1 image showing in process 1 image explaining lightfastness 3 images explaining the importance of lightfastness 1 image explaining the measurement process 1…

FWIW, I do object to the industrial raising of animals for food as well. Have a few pigs rummaging around your food forest? Some sheep to keep grasses and weeds in check? Some poul…

This is simply, objectively false.

I disagree. We can also continue to engage in revolutionary thought and practice locally. We can decide that collective and community health and wellbeing are more important than i…

FWIW, I am not opposed to GMOs broadly. But I am opposed to GMOs for the purpose of enabling more industrialization in agriculture. I don't see, e.g., red grapefruits as bad, even …

This is what so few people realize -- farming, as it's practiced in the US, is basically mining. It might appear to be lush nature, but the places we farm are deserts in many ways.…

This has been the practice for more than a century. We saw the steepest declines post 2000s. While it almost certainly isn't helping, it's not the one root cause.

Prior to the langstroth hive, European beekeepers destroyed the hive entirely to harvest the honey. Mites and disease were less prevalent and insects were FAR less stressed by the …

Are staple crops the bar though? Like, I love rice, wheat, and potatoes, but I would be real sad to not have all the vegetables that are not wind pollinated. We've survive , but I …

In the US, honeybees aren't native, and the bees we really need to protect are the native bees. That said, most beekeepers expect to lose 30-50% of their hives every year. But most…
