The group diligently observes the collective dissent voiced by numerous Meta employees, encompassing #Facebook, #Instagram, WhatsApp, #Messenger, and #Threads, regarding the Meta #company's complicity in the #genocidal war against the #Gaza Strip, its endorsement of the Israeli occupation, and its fueling of the "Lavender" #artificialintelligence system used by the Israeli military to kill #Palestinian individuals within the Gaza enclave.
#Mastodon forms new 501(c)(3) non-profit entity with new board of directors in the United States to facilitate tax-deductible donations and in-kind support:
#Meta, the parent #company of #Facebook, has been advised by the European #Data Protection Board against enforcing a "Consent or pay" system on its users for data protection. The EDPB, chaired by Anu Talus, emphasized the importance of providing users with genuine choices regarding their data privacy when implementing such models. "Online platforms should give users a real choice when employing 'consent or pay' models. The models we have today usually require https://pike.link/fPKup...
I'm currently creating a new, small #website for our new #thai#company with #grav and it's been a few months since I did this professionally at #kubusmedia. Although getting back into it was a bit of a stretch, it's a lot of fun too. 🤓 It's also the first time I've done the design with #flex.
That's a good start! However, you can activate virtual environments from Emacs using pyvenv (https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/pyvenv), which allows using M-x pyvenv-activate`. You can also add a dir-local entry to activate the environment automatically when you enter a project, via a line like
(pyvenv-activate . "/path/to/venv")
on the same level as eglot-workspace-configuration.
I usually never restart my #Emacs session, just keep one Emacs server open for all my projects, so it's good we can manage environments from within Emacs.
Btw, if you want a pretty dropdown menu for completion, and possibly auto-completion (no tab-pressing), you can try #corfu (https://github.com/minad/corfu) or the older company-mode (https://company-mode.github.io). #Company latter has some historical baggage, but is more batteries-included, while corfu is a bit more modular.
On another front, I am now in the process of setting up our new #thai#company together with my wife. The #lawyer is already at work. 🥰️
The name is set, the #logo and a minimal #corporate design are made (I used an #opensource font and did all the work in #inkscape), the #domain is bought and set up, the #website is in the works (with #grav) and our thai #friends are on board as shareholders as well. 😃️
Unfortunately I can't share the details yet, but I'm still really excited. 🥳️
@aut had an interesting post that lead me to this question.
Have you ever experienced a situation where on leaving a company you negotiated that you keep the company laptop either because it is fully depreciated or pay a small price for it?
Are there even any other (western) company structures aside from cooperatives that promote / consist of structures of respect and equal / fair pay, instead of letting autocracy and greed reign supreme? 🧐
As a #company, if you release a new #version of your #product, and it immediately causes the #price of #used examples of the previous product to jump to 50% more than the #new one, then you know you have #failed the #consumer, utterly.
If true we HAVE to make this the biggest flop in #gaming#history, as in 'destroys the #company' levels of gaming flop as in a 'lesson must be taught' gaming flop, as in 'E.T. destroyed atari' gaming flop

The Development of v1.0 of the VEX.blue Website has been going well.
We seem to keep on adding more and more things to what we want as the beginnings of the website as the early access one is seemly just about doing the job.
Hanwha Ocean plans to raise capital for its wind power #business expansion, increasing the investment target from $151 million to $225 million. The #company will issue new shares for this purpose, aiming to enhance its value chain in renewable #energy.
I'm currently working on launching my own #company 🚀
It'll be all about #IT, #Consulting, Services and Design.
Early version of the #website is online and on #1 on #google results (if you ignore the "did you mean..." stuff 🤪)
Will post more content about this #journey in the next days & weeks ✌️
One of my personal goals: building up a small #community of dev enthusiasts around the company to provide a network to everyone included :) #opensource#cloud#webdev
The tax shall be repeated in the following year, regardless of #layoffs. If more layoffs follow, it is extended until a full fiscal year without layoffs passes.
The proceeds are split 50/50 between government and the laid-off employees.
To Beat the #Heat, 'We Can't Rely on #Management. We Have to Keep Each Other Safe'
“I really don’t give a f— what the #company says we can or cannot do. If someone shows signs of #HeatExhaustion, we’re stopping. Let the company try to #discipline us afterwards."
If you have been using #Unity and you wanna jump ship to the nearest competitor, #GodotEngine is gonna be your best bet. The structure of a project isn't exactly the same, but it's similar enough that it won't take long to adjust.
Below, I'll give a few tips and talk about pain points you might run into, to help you try it out properly, and make an evaluation. #GameDev
@Fenreliania So I'd rather expect #W4Games to make that #SDK integration happening with a sort-of toolchain similar to #Unity: Thus they as a #Company can comply with all the #NDAs and #Gatekeeping the Platform Owners demand - just like Unity today.
You continue to pour your work into Musk's business. You are supporting him. You are helping him.
You are doing this despite his demonstrated contempt for you, despite his support for extremists -- and, as of today, his rank anti-semitism (effectively blaming Jews for his vile site's loss of advertising)
I know that you believe you get value from being "where the people are" -- but sometimes principle requires sacrifice.
