Technology@lemmy.world•Micron addresses Crucial exit backlash: 'We are trying to help consumers around the world' — company warns that DRAM drought could last until at least 2028English
15·4 days agoMicron: “But guuyyyyyyys… What about the money? We could be making so much more money!”
So… apart from everything?
I wish I was bored, rather than worrying about the next atrocity.

Technology@lemmy.world•Copilot could soon live inside Windows 11's File Explorer, as Microsoft tests Chat with Copilot in Explorer, not just in a separate appEnglish
60·10 days agoExplorer already crashes enough without this.
Why don’t they work on Explorer’s awful performance and constant hanging before working in another chatbot?
You know, useful software development work?

Technology@lemmy.world•Creators of Tailwind laid off 75% of their engineering teamEnglish
12·12 days agoIt’s not particularly bad value for what they’re offering, which seems to be a component library and set of templates.
For a comparison, the company I work for are paying over a £1000 / year for MUI-X, which is a set of paid React components. It’s cheaper and more efficient than paying someone at our company to maintain our own component library.
Even a single engineer spending 10% of their time (as I used to) maintaining this stuff would cost the company over £5000 / year in manpower.

Technology@lemmy.world•Creators of Tailwind laid off 75% of their engineering teamEnglish
121·12 days agoIt’s effectively an alternative to plain CSS. Works well with component-based systems like React and Svelte.
I used it for a few years and thought it was pretty good. I still use it on some of my projects.

Technology@lemmy.world•This EV Was Already Cheap, Then Dacia Knocked Off Nearly $6,000English
593·13 days agoI don’t know why people are saying a 200km range is bad. Most people I know don’t drive more than 25km to work per day. Surely even 100km is perfectly fine for a daily driver.
My brother had an 80km range car for years and was perfectly fine.
Is it just that it’s not competitive at this price?

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Nearly 77% of the Forbes 400 Have Given 5% or Less of their Net Worth to Charity
7·15 days agoThe trick is to not allow people to get that rich. Sharing should not be voluntary at those levels.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Jews Are NOT Oppressed: The Myth of Systemic Antisemitism
2·18 days agoI should have read the article before commenting. The title is a little misleading / click-baity but I guess that’s to be expected in the modern climate.
The content you’ve quoted seems reasonable. It more or less aligns with my limited knowledge on the matter. It’s not my area of expertise.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•Jews Are NOT Oppressed: The Myth of Systemic Antisemitism
163·18 days agoTwo things can be true. Antisemitism can be broadly present, and criticism of Israel can be legitimate.
That said, those crying about antisemitism nowadays are often close friends with closeted antisemites or authoritarians who just happen to support Israel for weird Christian or financial reasons.
Armand1@lemmy.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•"I just don't talk politics" before giving you their Andrew Tate take
10·19 days agoReal talk, it’s what I used to put in my profile maybe 2 years ago.
I didn’t watch the news much, I had always stayed out of the discourse and I had refused to apply a 1-dimensional label to my beliefs.
Put plainly, I was privileged enough that politics rarely affected me directly, and I think until recently there were a lot of people like that.
One day in 2023, I took a political alignment test and found out I was a democratic socialist and it just so happened I was living in one (UK). Hence why I never felt the need to mess with things.
Of course, no country is perfect, and as I met more people, especially trans and disabled people, I discovered that there was a lot of terrible shit going on in my country and that’s where I finally got my awakening. I also started watching more political YouTube.
Since then, I’ve veered slightly further left I’m involved in advocacy and I’m proud to wear the “Left” label as someone who cares for others and believes we can all do better.
I still believe that left and right are a bit reductive, but I understand now that it’s more like the more of the things you believe in, the further on that axis you go. For example, the UK’s Green Party is bringing together some conservative environmentalists with leftist progressives in their interests to keep our green spaces and maintain traditional trades and crafts.
Anyway, the point is some “non-political” people are just sheltered. That said, you have to be extremely sheltered in the US to not experience the upheaval currently happening.

Technology@lemmy.world•Librarians Are Tired of Being Accused of Hiding Secret Books That Were Made Up by AIEnglish
4·21 days agoGood article with many links to other interesting articles. Acts like a good summary for the situation this year.
I didn’t know about the MAHA thing, but I guess I’m not surprised. It’s hard to know how much is incompetence and idiocy and how much is malicious.

100·21 days agoWhat is this website used as a source?
It doesn’t have sources, an about page, contact page or even proper navigation. Is it some sort of blog?
Edit: I managed to manually navigate to their about page using the URL, and all the images there are badly AI generated, the content is meaningless.
I don’t trust news sources that are not transparent, provide information about themselves or use AI for key resources. Even if I agree with the stance in their articles.
For all I know, all of the content of the article is made up.
Source is a 2015 xkcd comic:
Cruel and unusual punishment.

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•A conversation between Joe Rogan and Mel Gibson summed up 2025 for me – and not in a good way
16·24 days agoI read the article. They really are dangerous, rich morons.
- Climate denial, even as it destroys their homes.
- Complaining about poor people.
- Pushing snake oil.
- Making statements borderline inciting violence against innocent people.
I agree with the author that it is a microcosm of 2025 and the mainstream right at the moment.
