I learned a lot about my last ten years reading that 🤷
I don’t follow the last two paragraphs
The irony is in the fact they sold databases to the Reich for asset manager and business process management (hey kids, did you know the Holocaust forearm tattoos were the database entry ID? Can’t go wrong buying blue!)
👋 let’s do friendship. Ask me about my mundane American life. I’ll go first. Are nutritional supplements popular?
Majority of enterprise tech workers everywhere*
That’s why I hate myself enough to do early stage, where you can be a human
Some might call it a… what’s that word? Responsibility?
Like that whole neighbor and community upstanding injustice and leveraging their privilege for the have nots thing that has defined modern human society up until Cambridge Analytica?
I have agreed for the longest time. But a couple of friends in intelligence are really trying to convince me this is a distraction lately. I haven’t gotten a good answer to why status quo should be allowed but those guys don’t ever consider “how end users are” when we get into it.

Good old database arms
Max was a really kind dude when we were kids

What? Why is my comment invalid in the context.
Not a comment on the merit of the article, but a tangential thought: Fediverse has presented the same amount of doom to scroll as the algorithms.
