  • Bidenomics Was More Successful Than People Think | Conventional wisdom holds that Joe Biden’s bet on climate investment was a bust. The data suggest otherwise.

  • One of his biggest [economic] fuck-ups was not cutting the red tape to get more broadband services deployed to rural areas. It might not have incentivized better information sharing but it can be a great economic boost. I work from home and it would be a dream of mine own a few acres of land in a smallish town but also be able to have a tech job.

  • I can't boycott any harder you guys. It's been 10 years since I've bought an EA game!

  • Changing tech is usually a lot harder than adoption. Better methods and protocols will keep emerging to fight new digital threats but with physical threats usually don't change. Only exception is social engineering (e.g. attacking a locked door by tricking someone into opening it). Even then a physical presence is required and someone can't enter a locked room from 2000 miles away.

  • Send them American produce? 🤔

  • Oh, scrapes.

  • What's the latest and greatest AI in image editing and image2image?

  • I started with Auto1111, then moved to comfy, then started bouncing between tools including Invoke. Auto1111 feels antiquated (mostly due to it's setup process), Comfy has been good but there's so many nodes it can take an hour or more to setup a workflow I downloaded (plus many nodes are using the cloud which I want to avoid). Invoke has been nice for the few days I've used it and the biggest negative so far is dealing with the layering biz in the canvas.

    How does krea2 compare?

  • It's called paying people to watch the systems during off-hours. It's often way cheaper than setting up firewalls, setting up alerts, maintaining patches, paying a VPN company to manage connections, paying another company to handle authentication, and so on. Security constraints are getting so bad at my office I'm seriously thinking of how we can do more things with pen and paper.

  • Are they working with any kind of union organizer like Tech Workers Coalition? We could donate to them instead.

  • My employer does this too. It is a layoff technically but employees are given the opportunity to interview for another position in the company if they want to stay. If it was a "restructuring" the employees would've been moved to another department and possibly a new role without their consent.

  • Dem. Ohio Gov Candidate Amy Acton Scheduled a Meeting With LGBTQ+ Advocates, Didn't Show Up, And Kicked Out Trans People Who Did

    Jump

  • I checked and there are no options to recall the governor. The best option might be to ensure as many progressive, state legislators as possible are elected to keep her in check.

  • So, state-sponsored terrorism?

  • Newly released Biden audio recordings include references to ‘classified’ material and struggles with memory

    Jump

  • So we shouldn't let geriatric old men be President? Yeah, no argument here.

  • Schools across America are quietly admitting that screens in classrooms made students worse off and are reversing years of tech-first policies

    Jump

  • I'm sure there are right and wrong ways to apply digital learning but I also think adoption has been driven by tech companies and anyone that is starstruck by the "potential" of these devices. I can almost guarantee there were no long-term studies performed prior to sticking all kinds of screens in front of kids faces. Humans have been learning and teaching for millennia using physical mediums. It's very foolish to think we, as a species, can suddenly shift to a new medium in a single generation with no ill effects.

  • If it so much as has a button to change text size I know kids would rather mash that button and watch the screen go crazy than to pay attention to the lesson.

  • Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer backs Haley Stevens in contested Democratic Senate primary

  • Very disappointed they never brought that up during How Did This Get Made. He killed someone during competition before so he should've known, first hand, that's not an occasion for people to cheer. Pretty sure he's on the spectrum.

  • U.S. military intentionally allowing some Iranian projectiles through defenses

    Jump

  • Not like this info should be suppressed, but now I'm guessing Iran will just send more drones without payloads to save on their munitions.
