I remember one vacation to Orlando where we went to Disney and then Lego land. At Disney they’ll put walls around construction and then add these inspirational posters like “excuse our dust while we reimagine your dreams” or whatever. At Lego land they had the same plywood walls but then these plaques with some ISO-compliant safety icons and a message like “construction area: trespassing may cause death”.

Was just talking with a coworker about how with the rise of server-side rendering we’re finally technologically back to Web 1.0
Read the meme, upvoted, then read the title. Yikes.
How do you fight willful — or even gleeful — stupidity? No amount of argument, information or even observable outcome is going to change the mind of someone who is happier to not know.

Technology@beehaw.org•Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industryEnglish
19·8 months agoPerhaps the government should collect money from the AI companies — they could call it something simple, like “taxes” — and distribute the money to anyone who had ever written something that made its way to the internet (since we can reasonably assume that everything posted online has now been sucked in to the slop machines)

You Should Know@lemmy.world•YSK that habeas corpus has its roots in the Magna carta, from the 13th century.English
4·8 months agoBut that’s what I’m saying - From a practical perspective we’ve learned that it is essentially impossible to prosecute – let alone convict – a sitting president. They have de facto immunity, even if it’s not technically de jure.

710·8 months agoDidn’t the Supreme Court last year basically decide that the President can do anything without restriction if it’s to execute his duties? Until someone does something about that I don’t understand the purpose of articles like this other than to be rage bait.

Technology@lemmy.world•Any recommendations for the best expense reimbursement software for remote teams?English
21·8 months agoMy team uses Expensify, and I have to say, I don’t hate it. The website is full featured, the mobile app is actually pretty good, and you can even just email receipts to an email address and it will parse them out properly the vast majority of the time. Management-wise it has all of the approval chains, grouping, etc that you might expect. The company I work for is only about 50 people and my team is only 10 so I couldn’t say how well it scales, but I imagine unless you have some particularly unique requirements it’d do the job.

Science@mander.xyz•Researchers challenge long-held assumptions about the origins of domesticationEnglish
1·8 months ago“People did different things at different times and places depending on their circumstances” is not exactly news, even in academic circles where head-in-the-sand disorder is all to real. Davids Graeber and Wengrove covered it to much popular acclaim in The Dawn of Everything, and the anthro/archaeology was going on for decades prior.

Of course it’s much higher than that if you limit the scope to specific countries or groups.

Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•World's wealthiest 10% have contributed to two-thirds of global warming since 1990, study findsEnglish887·8 months agoIt takes only around $850k of net worth to be in the global 1% for wealth. Minimum wage ($7.25/hr) will put you in the top 10% of wages. So this really just says industrialized nations have been responsible for most emissions.
