“We encourage our engineers to vigorously test and critique our internal tools; that candid feedback loop, even via our internal meme generator, is vital to how we build technology”
Google listening to employee feedback:



Exactly what I was thinking. The US is literally renowned for slavery-esque prison labour, yet Trump is the one trying to put an anti-slavery tariff on other countries?
I sincerely hope other countries do call the fake-tanned paedophile out on yet another tariff related grift.


Was about to say exactly this. Didn’t realise Donny still had any sense left to give. If only he could have such a moment of clarity about himself


Surely there has to be a level of expenditure where they just can’t reasonably make this back, right?
Like the debt these hyperscalers are in to their investors at this moment surpasses the debt of entire countries, yet they somehow expect to make this all back and then some??


So much gas-lighting going on from Trump’s Whitehouse over the Iran war its ridiculous.
If Iran is still controlling the Strait of Hormuz to the point where they can use reopening it as a negotiation tool - then with all sincerity you haven’t won shit.
Billions a week are being spent on a war that was completely unnecessary, leading to negotiations so bad they make the Obama administration look like masterminds for being half-competent at the job.
… And all this bullshit occurred just so Trump could distract from him being a paedophile - but if being treasonous cunt wasn’t enough to get him in prison, I doubt being a pedo will do much either.


Well duh. Whatever your thoughts may be on those who chose their vote purely based on Gaza, it is an undeniable fact that it played a not insignificant part in their loss to the orange paedophile.
Of course they don’t want to admit that essentially ignoring their ally’s genocide screwed them over… Because admitting that officially means they’d have to do something about it.


Great. Sabotage the collective intelligence of humanity so they can sell it back to us. Seems like either the bubble pops or we do.


Problem is its not actually about the children. As always they’re the excuse. The UK Government will stoop to almost any excuse possible to give itself more surveillance powers - it took 1984 as a goal rather than a warning.


So the secret is the BS the administration made up after they were told that they’d need congressional approval if it really was just a ballroom


Well that’s gross. I’m just thankful you have to explicitly opt into this for now, cause I’m staying the fuck away


By that calculation, even on the lower end of only losing $20 billion that’d still be 10 years before it’d cost them anymore than this rancid business decision did.
They’re so determined to not negotiate with the union that they’d rather throw away the shareholder’s money than give it to workers… And that’s just this scheduled strike. If talks fail again, I bet you there will be more to come.
Samsung might have a difficult time explaining that one at their shareholder presentation next year.


What?! A soulless megacorporation pocketed refunds for tariffs that they never actually paid (because they forced the end user to eat the cost)??
I seriously hope this lawsuit works, because it’d set one hell of a precedent for future lawsuits.


Probably - because the amount of money they’re about to lose was probably less than what actually negotiating with the union would’ve cost them


Weirdly enough there’s a pretty easy way to stop emissions limits from being bypassed - make it a physical limitation, not in software.
But like with putting tablets into every fucking car nowadays, doing anything physically would require just a bit more money, ergo it won’t be done.


According to the Seoul Economic Daily, daily losses could approach 3 trillion won ($2 billion) if fabrication lines are paused entirely. Professor Kwon Seok-joon at Sungkyunkwan University previously estimated that the 18-day walkout alone would cause 10 trillion to 17 trillion won ($17 billion) in direct losses, while JPMorgan has projected total losses of up to 43 trillion won ($28 billion) when factoring in labor costs and extended production disruption.
Wow. What a huge amount of money to lose just because you won’t pay your highly skilled workers more.
As @osanna@lemmy.vg said, you really have to wonder how much it would cost Samsung to pay their workers more if they’re willing to tank a potentially $20-40 billion loss instead of giving the union what they’re asking for.


Yes - not because I particularly like the idea of bigoted speech, but because like most Governments have already started to demonstrate over age verification, any tool of censorship you allow to be used against your enemy will eventually be turned back against you


While I’m not going to say its over, it sure looks like Google is about to make it a whole lot harder for people to escape their influence.
And the worst part of this is it would seem even the most “privacy conscious” governments are on Google’s side.
Because locking everything down and removing our privacy is good for the children… Just never mind the rich pedophile cabal that almost nothing was done about other than slapping the wrists a few very high profile scapegoats.


The court that essentially determines huge swathes of law through constitutional interpretations, and whom have used that power in very partisan ways, thinks they’re apolitical?
The only part of the political process they’re not a part of is being electable, and therefore held accountable, by the public.
Well if we know anything about the GOP, that baseless accusation means they’re actively trying to steal the California Primaries
