  • How to unionize your tech workplace

    Jump

  • In a potentially more ominous development, SpaceX, Amazon, Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, and the University of Southern California have in separate legal actions challenged the constitutionality of the NLRB

    Nuts, didn't realize Trader Joe's was on the evil list.

    Lots of useful examples in the article though, thanks for sharing.

    Ah, the joys of being a woman in her early thirties!

    Jump

  • I'm male, but haven't heard of this level of fatigue from my female friends / wife. It does sound like having a young child though (minus the part about getting >8h sleep).

    Normal or not, sounds terrible, hope it improves!

  • Big Tech slapped with $3.5bn in fines for using your personal data to train AI — and 'it could be only the beginning,' warns Surfshark

    Jump

  • While these fines may seem exorbitant, it is worrying that the financial impact of such punishments rarely acts as a deterrent to these large technology companies, whose market capitalisation runs into the hundreds of billions of dollars.

    Yeah. We need the equivalent of the giant "stop work" stickers that get plastered on a building's front door when construction doesn't have a permit. Otherwise it's just another operating cost to pass along to VCs/users.

  • Feds Killed Polestar and Spared Volvo. That Should Terrify You

    Jump

  • The U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security denied Polestar an authorization under the current Connected Vehicle Rule to sell cars in the U.S. from model year 2027 on. That’s because Polestar is a subsidiary of Geely, a Chinese automaker. Ironically, Polestar’s sister brand, also owned by Geely, Volvo, was granted the authorization in May.

    What's the Connected Vehicle Rule? From the Bureau of Industry and Security (is that a thing?):

    On January 14, 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) issued a rule restricting the import and sale of certain connected vehicles and related hardware/software linked to China or Russia. BIS determined these transactions pose national security risks, as companies from these countries may be compelled to share data or allow remote access to connected vehicles in the United States.

    So, the reported ban seems capricious, but I wouldn't mind one solution: stop making cars connected. The key fob uses its local protocol for lock/unlock and remote start, my phone uses bluetooth for charge controls and status, and there's a scren that uses Android Auto. Car companies stop trying to write UX and network stacks.

    I wonder why a stage hand didn't just take the cat away.

  • Stanford scientists regrow lost cartilage and reverse arthritis in major breakthrough

    Jump

  • When they compared cartilage from young and old mice, they found that levels of 15-PGDH approximately doubled with age. To test the idea, researchers treated older mice with a small molecule drug that blocks 15-PGDH activity. [And cartilage regrew.]

    Sounds very promising! I couldn't figure out the peer-reviewed-ness status.

  • A Rivian Fender Bender Cost $42,000. Its CEO Says That Should Never Happen

    People love working from home. But does it love them back? A new study says no

    Jump

  • "Everybody wants to know how is that changing things? And usually the answer is we can't really tell," he explains. "We can't really tell because people weren't randomly assigned to work from home or not as a terrible experiment."

    This seems to be the crux of it. And without a measure of change between clear conditions, it's just pontificating.

    I do like spending time with my coworkers when I go into the office.

    But, I often feel more isolated when I'm around a group of people I don't connect with. And the shift to open office plan seating was grueling, certainly added to my frustration/stress. A productive day at home where I interact with exactly nobody is the dream.

    I wonder how much of the increase in mental health interventions is increased need, and how much could actually be a benefit of WFH. Much easier to duck out for a doctor's visit or have a telehealth therapy visit during the day when at home is my feeling.
