CGT denuncia un ERE encubierto en las Apple Store avalado por los sindicatos Fetico y CC OO.
Más de 120 dependientes de las tiendas de Apple en Puerta del Sol (Madrid), Passeig de Gràcia (Barcelona) y València han sido despedidos.
La mayoría de las personas despedidas tenían entre diez y doce años de antigüedad. en los últimos días Apple ya ha contratado a 40 jóvenes a tiempo parcial, con contratos de entre 20 y 24 horas.
I remember #NaNoWriMo's innocent early days of simply cranking out a terrible first draft without your internal editor interfering, and then watched in disappointment over the years as it became institutionalized and started taking itself way too $eriou$ly.
This latest misstep isn't terribly $urpri$ing, and they surely won't be the last arts organization to make a tone deaf decision related to "AI" non$en$e.
At this point, dunking on Google's AI summaries for bad/wrong/hilarious summaries is almost too easy, but I came across this one this evening, and I love it

What's worse?
A) The discovery that your cat seems to be recording his own podcast
B) The realisation that he doesn't consider you worthy of being a guest on it.

Oh boi, do I have thoughts about #nanowrimo. Disclosure; I have written millions of words (most of them technical), I have done #NaNoWriMo a few times, and I have been writing about #AI since the early 90s.
#LLMs are NOT AI. LLMs are vacuums which sort existing data into sets. They do not create anything. Everything they output depends on stolen data. There is no honest LLM.
This year, Nano is sponsored by an LLM company, and after pushback, they said anyone suggesting AI shouldn't be used was "ableist and "classist"....which....whooweee , that's a mighty bold stance.
LLMs are being sued to hell by authors for slurping up all their content. The reason you can "engineer a prompt" by including "in the style of RR Martin" is because the LLM has digested ALL of RRMartin.
Re: "ableism", I'm going to direct you to Lina² neuromatch.social/@lina/113069…, who writes about the issue better than I could. And I want to thank @LinuxAndYarn for coming up with my fave new Nano tag: #NahNoHellNo.

I work in recycling. No one wants plastic. This greenwashing has been known for years among insiders and people who dug into it but I'm glad to see it getting wider reporting!
I even made a meme a couple years back:
So, yeah ripping a huge hole in the Earth's atmosphere does not seem like a good thing. 🤔

But heck, let's keep letting the richest guy in the world destroy the world. 🤷
I put the work arounds for Steam💩 accessibility on Linux on the audio games forum.
I figured it might be good to have a centralized topic on it. Of course the best usage advice is to avoid it if at all possible, but unfortunately it's the only platform that offers some games.
#AndroidAppRain at apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid today brings you 9 updated, 1 removed and 1 added apps:
- Joplin was removed as updates became unavailable. The FOSS variant without any non-free dependencies is still available at F-Droid.
+ Showly returned with a FOSS build today, to let you track shows & movies
Enjoy your #free #Android #apps with the #IzzyOnDroid repo 
Over time, how many lines have been added to the #curl product source code compared to how many lines are still present?
Turns out the factor is about 3. Over time, we have added 3 times the number of lines than currently present.
(a changed line is an added line and one removed)
Here's an email I just got after paying for an $100 OVH server.
Crazy ID requirements, what's going on?
There's a new bout of "Facebook are listening to you through your microphone to serve targeted ads, no really we have proof now!" discourse, and I'm revisiting my long-term hobby of trying (and failing) to convince people that this isn't happening
It's fascinating to me how hard it is to talk people out of believing this one - there was a podcast episode about exactly this challenge back in 2017 and it's still true today gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-al…
@hobs I think this mostly happens due to people seeing ads for what they're talking about, without realizing the power of coincidences on one hand and the power of search tracking on the other.
The best way I've found to convince nonn-technical people that this isn't true is to make them notice when the same phenomenon happens on linear TV.
You can only do this in-person though, and only when the people in question actually do watch TV and/or listen to the radio.
The main way podcasts grow their audience is through word of mouth so if you like what we do, it would be great if you spread the word to people who might also like our shows.
Anyone who's into Linux, open source, systems administration, cloud, or development should find something they like.

xkcd #2977: Three Kinds of Researchalt text:
The secret fourth kind is 'we applied a standard theory to their map of every tree and got some suspicious results.'
Unfortunately most of the species tagged trees are mass imported and not mapped by a real mapper.
I try often to map species or genus but there is no good mobile app for this task yet.

I do pity the general population who has to be subjected to that sort of built-in data collection, and all the security and privacy problems it entails. Too bad #Linux is not even a blip on the public consciousness & cultural upbringing.
Jsou produkty a taky software, u kterých si myslím, že se velmi přiblížili k dokonalosti, resp. to co slibují dělají dobře. Za mě to jsou:
* Framework notebook s AMD procesorem - lepší notebook jsem nikdy neměl
* Kindle Paperwhite 5 - za mě překonal papír a pokud vám nevadí knihy v angličtině, je to jak Netflix pro knížky
* Miniflux - self-hosted RSS čtečka, co se ovládá klávesovými zkratkami a umí stáhnout obsah stránky, takže skoro všechno čtete v jednom rozhraní.
* Gitea - vlastní Github
@stepan Já mám 13. I když ho mám téměř pořád v dockině, tak s ním cestuju mezi kanclem a domovem. Případně ho tahám na chalupu a podobně. 16 by byl moc velký. Taky 13 je tak o 10-15k levnější.
Jinak to jsou ty dva na fotce. Ten tmavší je AMD, ten používám. Ten světlejší jsem dal tchýni. To je první generace, co jsem si nechal poslat z USA. Ten nebyl tak dobrej. To AMD je úplně bezproblémové.
