As it turns out, women leaders are not likely to act based on their emotion, but men are. Study (N=137) finds women leaders had low levels of abusive supervision regardless of their anxiety. Men leaders engaged in more abusive supervision (being rude, ridiculing, yelling at, or lying to their reports) when their anxiety was higher. hbr.org/2024/09/research-how-a…

Folks, never _ever_ forget that mandating employees be in the office 5 days a week is an employer's favourite way to implement a stealth organisation-wide layoff.

Check, check, yum!

I keep telling all my friends in the US. You don't ask you don't get.
Reddit post by lapislazli We had layoffs at my multinational fortune 500 tech company recently and one team was split in San Francisco and France. The engineers in SF called into their morning meeting and then an hour later got a call from HR with a return shipping label for their hardware, no notice and a week of severance. The team in France? Legally they had to be placed on 'Garden Leave' for a month paid and the company had to prove they weren't replacing them in the near future and it was a legitimate downsizing in which the employees couldn't be reassigned and keep their jobs. If the company is found fraudulent at any point in the process they have to pay the dismissed worker a year of salary. We need to start rioting like the French when they are crossed

“Elon Musk lived in apartheid South Africa until he was 17. David Sacks…left aged five, and grew up in a South African diaspora family in Tennessee. Peter Thiel spent years of childhood in South Africa and Namibia, where his father was involved in uranium mining[…]. And Paul Furber, an obscure South African software developer and tech journalist living near Johannesburg, has been identified by two teams of forensic linguists as the originator of the QAnon conspiracy.”

Gnihihi. Die Mobilapp von MS Teams ist mal wieder borken.

Microsoft ist zunehmend ein komplettes Dumpsterfire. Ja, ich weiß, ich bin genauso schockiert wie ihr...

@Bubu for whatever value of dumpsterfire. Aber mittlerweile sind z.B. bei mir im Unternehmen selbst die Microsoft Fanboys ziemlich angepisst. Aber die Businessprozesse sind halt so tief in diese Müllhalde integriert, dass man sie auch nicht mit endlichem Aufwand wegmigrieren kann. Klassischer Vendor-Lockin

Find a sequence of 1000 positive integers in arithmetic progression whose digit sums in base 10 are equal.

Re-reading an Iain M. Banks book while travelling and, as always recently, distracted a little while reading it when coming across Ships' names by the knowledge that Elon is a fan and re-uses them at SpaceX. Like finding a little grain of sand in your food.

I was happy then, in this reading, to be reminded of a Ship's name that entirely encompasses his whole deal.

The photo is of some text from the book 'Matter' by Iain M. Banks. It reads: "The source of my name," the vessel had replied, "The Hundredth Idiot, is a quotation: 'One hundred idiots make idiotic plans and carry them out. All but one justly fail. The hundredth idiot, whose plan succeeded through pure luck, is immediately convinced he's a genius.' It is an old proverb."

I downloaded it this morning. My only problem with Bard Express updates is that I have to change all my settings, every time! But otherwise, it's a good update.

Buenas, a todos los que seguís mi caso contra Iberia el famoso ocaso goleta contra Goliat os cuento que hemos ganado el juicio, la sentencia dice que ellos actuaron con negligencia, y nos hubiera ido mejor si ellos hubieran aparecido, pero supongo que lo calcularon para no ir o sea, una batalla más granada para los perros guías
