I am not a fan of folks "donating" their free labor to LinkedIn's Expert Answers feature. Do this for a non-profit or the common good, but why do it for LinkedIn aka Microsoft Corp??? (Looking at you, folks in #Libraries ) #FreeLabor #UnpaidLabor #ExtractiveBusinessModels #UserReliance #CorporateDependence #Commodification #DigitalLabor #IntellectualLabor

This is on-call as it should be. The secret's out. The world can finally know. incident.io On-call is here. Naturally, a lot of you may be wondering: why and why now.

What were we hoping to solve for? How are we addressing the pain points around being on call? And most importantly, how are we stacking up against the incumbents in our space? This episode will not only get you excited about this huge week, it'll get you pumped for what's ahead for on-call. Learn more about on-call here: https://incident.io/oncall

Are you a woman? Do you have some shit to say? I've got no guest blog for this week, on 8th March (international women's day).

JFC, people in tech are really out there saying that language models will be better at therapy, financial advice, and career advice than trained people. WTF is wrong with you people? Do you really have no clue about what other people’s jobs actually involve? Language models can’t even do maths how are they supposed to get good at financial advice? And therapy? Just… 😑 What’s wrong with people in tech?

Attached: 1 image “This Is What Our Ruling Class Has Decided Will Be Normal” On Aaron Bushnell’s Action in Solidarity with Gaza https://crimethinc.com/AaronBushnell On February 25, we received an email from a person who signed himself Aaron Bushnell, announcing that he was going to engage in an act of protest against the genocide of the Palestinian people. Shortly afterwards, Aaron set himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy in Washington, DC. All afternoon, while other journalists were breaking the news, we discussed how we should speak about this. Some subjects are too complex to address in a hasty social media post. Here, we share some of our thoughts about tragedy, urgency, and sacrifice.
