I used sync for a while then once it became sort of dead tried a couple others and settled with boost. The most important factor is that it is the only Lemmy app (that I could find) that orders saved posts according to the time you saved them and not when it was created.
ps: After looking at some of the comments here I checked a couple others and jerboa also does the same
“Infosys co-founder suggested slavery could be brought back with updated terms and conditions”
This is how this news should be titled
One needs to read terms and conditions. Where in Tirana?
So we should also trust health insurance companies’ CEOs’ ideas about how health care should be structured? If they are likely to put their company’s interest above anything else, then this is a very valid question. And big corporations are notorious for doing exactly this.
I mean it is not unimaginable that someone with low moral standards may be exaggerating the risks involved to fear monger governments etc to work with them. It is a general distrust of big corporations that make people here skeptical. If companies like meta, google, tesla etc have no reservations about doing extremely shitty and dodgy things and also able to come out of those with net positive effects, why wouldn’t this guy? When someone says “corporations should not set defense policy”, they don’t actually mean setting it on a governmental level. What they mean is that they should not even be able to inform policies because they are likely putting their interest above other ethical considerations.
I have a theory that people who do this and people who ride really loud motorbikes do so because they have not received enough attention and validation from their parents and are now seeking it elsewhere
wow didn’t know about this guy till I read the stuff here. The politicians’ threshold for feeling shame / fear of punishment sure has gone down the drain.
survivorship bias…
It is just not amenability, he fucking showed actual mental agility and maturity when deflecting questions such as “Do you still think he is a fascist” directed at Mamdani. What the actual fuck? Is this guy a robit whose programming changes depending on the situation?
Sheer number of times Trump has made conflicting statements about Ukrainian war tells me what he says does not really matter at all. People who know how to operate him gets their requests met.
That was one weird hell of a meeting, that it was. I especially love how some people are like “I am not at all surprised”. Sure buddy in retrospect everything is always very clear.
Sure it is politics but these two people were at each other’s throats for the last couple months. And Trump has insulted Sadik Khan, mayor of London, every chance he gets, for almost a decade, because Sadik Khan called him ignorant once, about ten years ago. He doesn’t even stand to gain much from this, it is just petty feud. Trump is a vindictive man child. And yet somehow he pretended like he was best friends with a guy who called him a fascist about a month ago. And the way he showed mental agility to deflect questions from reporters like “Do you still think he is a fascist” to save both Mamdani and himself from a difficult spot is so unlike Trump. I would never in a decade think he can display such mental feats and maturity. And yet here we are.
Either Trump thinks he is losing too much support and shifting to center, or he thinks he stands to lose much more financially by losing control of NYC to an enemy rather than someone neutral(ish). It might be both, acting vindictively on NYC might be both a big support and financial loss for him. Or alternatively Trump isn’t this strategic and Mamdani just has found Trump’s levers and is manipulating him by saying the right things.
It makes more sense from Mamdani’s point of view that this was a win. He did not get the vindictive wrath of Trump on NYC (which could have terrible effects on his mayoral term tbh), he did not have to make a statement about backing from any of his policies or ideologies he stated during his campaigning. He also did not really praise Trump (unlike Trump somewhat praising him) but just said they will work together to make NYC better. How this will play out in terms of ICE and increasing racism is to be seen. He will definitely lose some support because of this but he has four years to make up for this.
sorry I think in academic calender
In last April:
“Satya Nadella says as much as 30% of Microsoft code is written by AI”
I mean it is awkward that he seems to be apologizing for a very serious allegation but his apology sounds not too different from “sorry I was 15 minutes lates to class. welp lets continue”. I agree this should have been resolved on the university level but this guy likely brings shit tons of money to the department through his connections and we have all seen with Trump adminstration how board of directors behave when threatened with funding cuts.
What is to be expected when the current trend among CEOs is to get the same stuff done with less employees and same salaries hence resulting in either you getting fired, resigning or doing x2 the amount of work with no real life improvements. Who would have the willingness to continue their side hobbies/project like contributions to open source when your main life is in shambles.
Lets not forget the part where he asks advice from Epstein on how to romantically approach one of his mentees.
I don’t think he feels any remorse, he is just trying to strategically minimise his losses by giving the appropriate soulless responses. Anyone with a drop of conscience and respect for their students would have permanently resigned from teaching.
it was a nice video thanks
