essteeyou@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•GitHub is no longer independent at Microsoft after CEO resignationEnglish4·1 month agoThe company I worked at got acquired by a big tech company. We’re switching from Google suite to Microsoft, Mac to Windows, Slack to Teams, etc. It’s pretty painful as transitions go, and if not for golden handcuffs I’d be gone.
I’m not sure if I’ll ever be happy with Visual Studio though, so I use Jetbrains Rider.

What if I want to make pornographic images of myself? What if Taylor Swift wants to?
The software is out there already, the images are life-like, and the models run offline. There’s absolutely no way of uncorking that bottle now.

That aside, imagine if Netflix charged a euro for everything on their service that you might watch.

essteeyou@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Chris Sayers reveals why he left Blizzard; fake promotions, lies, and gaslightingEnglish1510·2 years agoSounds like there’s plenty of bad shit going on there.
I have to say, it’s a tough sell to expect companies to pay above market rate for people in a cheaper location. We can’t all be earning Bay Area salaries and living in Spain, that’s just not worth it, honestly.
If you had to pay $200k in California or $80k in England for the same work, all remote, you wouldn’t throw away twice as much money.
The fake promo thing sounds like an Amazon stunt, from my experience there. You have to work at a certain level for a year before you (hopefully) get promoted to that level officially. It’s a great way of avoiding the Peter Principle for employers, with the added shitty bonus of saving you money.
All in all it sounds like a shitty situation with some “normal” stuff thrown in that we all wish wasn’t so normal.
Edit: non-compete clauses are unenforceable in lots of places. Seems like they are enforceable in the UK, however.
Edit 2: a move to management is a lateral move at Amazon, too. Probably true of a lot of places. I don’t like it, but it’s not that unusual.

Not all of them. Check out Sauber.

essteeyou@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla recalls 2.2 million cars — nearly all of its vehicles sold in the U.S. — over warning light issueEnglish641·2 years agoThe word “recall” in the context of a product clearly means the product had to go back to where it came from. Do Microsoft, Apple, and Google recall devices running their software every time there’s an update? No, it’s called an update.
There 100% needs to be better phrasing for this, and for all manufacturers. I don’t give a shit about Elon Musk.
essteeyou@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Universal Music says that it will pull its song catalog from TikTok tomorrow at midnight, as the companies are unable to reach a deal on rights. Huge implications.English91·2 years agoI enjoyed Reddit, but then they started doing things I didn’t agree with, so I left.
I used to want a Tesla, but I’d rather not support someone like Elon Musk, so I won’t get one.
I used to love songs by a certain band, and then the lead singer turned out to be a pedophile, so I stopped listening to the music because it was no longer enjoyable.
Sometimes you’ve got to vote with your wallet, or your attention, or whatever affects the relevant party. Companies definitely affect you, and I don’t think it’s wrong to make decisions based on things other than just enjoyment.

If you look at CO2 emissions per capita then China is actually doing better than countries like Canada, the US, and Singapore. Assuming I haven’t completely misread that table.

I know why you included both, but saying “1 adb command” and then posting two is funny to me.
