I managed to get blackballed by Google HR by asking them when they will apologize to James Damore, so they no longer bother me. But now Facebook recruitment team is basically out of control. Is there something sensitive in FB culture that acceptable people cannot bring up, I wonder?

This article claims the US #census was breached - 200 million people compromized. The date of the article was 2020-03-20. Isn't that too soon to have collected the data? https://www.techradar.com/news/major-data-breach-exposes-database-of-200-million-users Perhaps it's from the 2010 census.

UK Supreme Court says Uber drivers are not independent contractors
"The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom has ruled that Uber drivers are legally workers, not self-employed contractors as Uber has argued in courts around the world. The ruling means that drivers in Britain and Northern Ireland are eligible for additional benefits and protections, including a minimum wage."
It's Friday so I though I will bring back this 6 years classic trippy masterpiece

Trust no-one: why ‘proof of work’ is killing the planet as well as us
Can you recommend any cloud-based software for #OSINT where a group of people can 1) collect evidence (PDF, images), 2) write text with links etc, 3) graph timelines and organisational relationships?
There's Cryptpad, but it can't store easily files. There's NextCloud but you can't draw stuff (to my knowledge). The last one is probably only in Maltego which is $$$

Another deception is quoting how much electricity is used, but not the fossil fuels burned to produce it. Or 'biomass', which is often pure timber.

Reality of #biomass which makes significant part of EU "renewable" energy is that it's a forest logged in Africa or Siberia and transported over thousands of kilometers.

📈 The new social web has reached another milestone: Mastodon passed 3 million users and PeerTube 100k users!📈
Today, the counter at https://the-federation.info/ shows 3,019,861 #Mastodon and #118,877 #PeerTube users.
#Fediverse (#ActivityPub): 3,340,712
Fediverse (total): 4,367,971
*But* please be aware: The Fediverse has to grow faster! Currently, it just keeps its level of monthly active users (#MAU) in a year-to-year comparison:
-0.2% Mastodon at currently 444,951 MAU
+2.7% Fediverse 493,924 MAU

Cold call to the office: "can we speak to your finance team? someone at your org has been browsing our website's IFRS16 pages and I wanted to follow up…"
Yes, we're an ISP…

"I will slaughter you" - some emails penetrate even my thick open source maintainer skin. Like this threat.

An idea for Poland, who is at the verge of making its abortion law more restrictive: take example of Iowa 🇺🇸 (bill HF 515), proactively detect all women seeking abortion online using search engine surveillance and talk them out of it!
