I really love this juxtaposition of toots in my feed.

Good night #mastodon, if you didn’t get everything accomplished that you wanted to today that’s ok! Baby Sir is here to remind you that you can try again tomorrow (and that stairs are hard!)

Just a reminder to folks that the spate of layoffs across big tech are merely a fad.

When grouped together like this the news is less sensational, the share prices won't dip as low as an isolated event, and they can all hide behind the inflation excuse but ultimately it's all a front.

This is just a way to improve returns to investors with the smallest negative affect publicity wise because "everyone is doing it".

So understand there's still plenty of places hiring in smaller sized companies and you won't be used as a pawn. It sucks we all have to work to survive but you may as well do it somewhere you're respected. I might know one or two places hiring if you're struggling in infosec. DMs are always open.

To this point @therisingtithes makes - the idea that AI "democratizes" artistic expression only makes sense if you already believe that the capacity for art is innate and unchangeable, something you're either born with or will never have. It's a belief that strongly resonates with general disdain for the humanities shared by a lot of STEM practitioners, who don't see the arts as real skills learned and honed, but as some arbitrary blessing they were denied at birth.
