@michal_osinski To jest rak naszych czasów. Internety szybkie jak pierun, kilkaset MBit/s, filmy w fchujhade pobierasz w sekundy, a strony ładują się kilkanaście sekund, bo muszą przemielić milion skryptów śledzących pod maską. Dramat.
On the climate crisis:
People were persuaded to continue to smoke after it was known doing so would kill them, and the techniques of persuasion have advanced so much since then.
Tobacco people made billions & live well off the deaths of millions. Same for fossil fuel people.
My last company, a #Boulder startup, was acquired by a #PE firm and they spent a whole day telling us how they were unlike other Private Equity stories.
Then they cut costs, made the place unbearable to work in and lost all the best people.
Can't imagine their infrastructure is any better with a bunch of interns running the place, but I bet they aren't saying that to investors.
#PrivateEquity is *quite* a racket. #PE managers pile up other peoples' money - pension funds, plutes, other pools of money - and then "invest" it (buying businesses, loading them with debt, cutting wages, lowering quality and setting traps for customers). For this, they get an annual fee - 2% - of the money they manage, and a bonus for any profits they make.

@WillRobinson For reference, the linked PDF of the new standards has this horrendous quote on page 71, SS.66.AA.2.3:
"Examine the various duties and trades performed by slaves (e.g., agricultural work, painting, carpentry, tailoring, domestic service, blacksmithing, transportation).
Benchmark ...
Instruction includes how slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit."
Coś tu jest na rzeczy.

Tydzień w Polsce:
- 4 typów zapierdala 140 km/h przez środek Krakowa, na szczęście zabili tylko siebie
- jeden korwinista zastrzelił w knajpie drugiego korwinistę, a potem siebie, bo tamten korwinista odbił mu dziewczynę i wrzucił na fejsa info o zaręczynach
Tymczasem policja:
eskortuje do szpitala, przeszukuje, bezprawnie zabiera komputer i telefon dziewczynie, która wzięła tabletki poronne i z krwawieniem zgłosiła się do lekarza
To już naprawdę nie jest zabawne, co tu się odpierdala, kochani.
