  • Company Regrets Replacing All Those Pesky Human Workers With AI, Just Wants Its Humans Back

  • Sweden is one of the main exporters of Neoliberalism outside of its own borders.

  • Palantir CEO Alex Karp praises Saudi engineers and takes a swipe at Europe, saying it has 'given up' on AI

    Jump

  • Yeah, but Palantir is based on using AI in Saudi Arabia to execute people for being gay. Proof? The computer said so.

    And in any other country it boils down to variations of that principle. Justify oppression, discrimination, torture and murder by the "impartial" decision of the computer algorithm fine tuned to make exactly that decision.

  • Microsoft laying off about 6,000 people, or 3% of its workforce

    Jump

  • I have a question. Everyone keeps speaking of the "tech" sector. Does that only refer to IT or does it cover engineers as well? Because in Europe it seems they keep struggling to get enough people with IT knowledge into engineering projects.

  • Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Warns Trump Admin If They ‘Lay a Finger’ on Members of Congress ‘We Are Going To Have a Problem’

    Jump

  • So far Trump needed a bunch of traitors among the Democrats to pass things such as his budget. Claiming the Democrats would have no power is a lie. They choose to use the power they have to enable Trump rather than to fight him. Otherwise they would have kicked people like Schumer out already.

  • Anti-privacy by default, pushing AI slop that takes all your data, more than one improperly checked update rolled out that bricked many computers, shoving Ads everywhere...

    Of course you could say these to not be strictly new, but it is a new level of enshittification way beyond what we used to know.

  • Du hast mich

    Jump

  • I learned English because in 2006-2010 most video games were poorly localized and when youtube became a thing most of the popular German gaming youtubers were absolute cringe so i watched English channels instead.

    Compared to my German friends my English is above average despite my English teacher in highschool being sick most of the time and the classes not being substituted with English classes. This solely lies in my interest/necessity to engage with English content online. We had French as a second language and despite the teachers actually being there and being good teachers for this educational system, i remember almost nothing.

  • The water that has "flown" through a brewery is typically cleaning water with caustic and detergents.

    Water that has been brewed is quite famously stagnant for a few weeks as microorganisms are breaking things down and you long for their excretions.

  • Nobody is kept from taking additional education if they want to, like you did. But the general education should be from school and school education needs to define the standard of what everyone should know or should at least have known at some point so he or she can refresh upon it.

    If you make it mandatory to make academic education contain every subject like school did, you will end up with programs taking 20 years instead of 5 years to graduate. If you want to discriminate against certain subjects you end up in the same trap of defining certain subjects as relevant and others as irrelevant, like the criticized "STEM-lords"

  • That is a very broad generalization. First of all inflation is not just some co-product of economic activity. It has specific reasons. An economy is not stagnant because the oil price sinks after geopolitical tensions ease. An economy is not stagnant because businesses are kept from price gouging in cartels or monopoly situations.

    Also "stagnant" is not inherently bad. The reason why we need economic growth is because the super rich are siphoning off more and more wealth, so economic growth is the only thing keeping poor people from revolting. A zero growth or even degrowth economy could serve the people very well, if wealth wouldn't be hoarded away by select few.

  • Why? Idiots thinking they know more than they do won't be stopped by this. Also if we wanted to round humanities and liberal arts by making it mandatory to pass analysis, linear algebra, organic chemistry and classical physics would just lead to much more people not graduating anything.

    School is for a general education. Academia is for specialization.

  • Former Palantir workers condemn company's work with Trump administration

    Jump

  • Ethics? Trump? The companies stock price has almost quadroupled over the past year. Since Trumps election it nearly doubled.

    Everyone who knows the company knows that it serves to aid authoritarian regimes in oppressing its people. It is known that Palantir serves Israel in its genocide and oppression of the Palestinian people. The entire purpose of this company is to help oppress. Palantir is having ties with the ICE since at least 2014.

    It is evil through and through and it is laughable to claim that Trump would be the reason why the company would have gone to far.

  • A maximum of 10,000% profit is "nonprofit"? Any country that allows for something like this is a joke.

  • He could just take another form of transportation. There is no public records of cars driven or train tickets purchased.

    He could even fly with normal airlines so there would be no public record of his flight.

  • Boycotting Israeli products is mandated by international law. Anything that helps Israel maintain the illegal occupation of the Westbank, Gaza and East Jerusalem is complicity and illegal. Israel launders products that are made in occupied territory and resources stolen in occupied territory as "made in Israel". But even if product would have been made purely in the 1967 Israeli borders, the companies still pay taxes that are used to finance the army that is doing the occupation.

    If you think that upholding international law is crazy or childish i recommend you to look at the period from 1933 to 1945 that is often given as the reason why there was an effort to create international law.

  • Germany's Constitution Protection Office Seeks to Ban AfD

    Jump

  • Note for everyone:

    There is three bodies that can start an investigation by the constitutional court to ban a party. The federal government. The federal parliament and the state assembly composed of representatives of the state governments.

    The federal government, both outgoing and new one already made it clear they have no intentions to start the procedure.

    The federal parliament whose majority coalition forms the government also has only shown lackluster motivation.

    It is unlikely that the state of Bremen will manage to get a majority in the state assembly as the majority of state governments is run by the reactionary CDU/CSU and the now right wing and often authoritarian and racist SPD. Also states need to agree on a position for their vote in the state assembly to be considered.

    In the current political climate this ia good to do, but there is a long way to success as the majority political powers want to keep the AfD around to secure their position and to justify their own racist ans inhumane policies as "moderate" in comparision.

  • The world is now reversing course to reject Trumpism

  • I mean the world can fix a broken US democracy by boycotting the US entirely on all fronts until a democratic country emerges.

    This will take a while though as we have seen with South Africa.
