Failure on my part to communicate.

I think your stance is very well communicated 😅

I don’t know how to effectively communicate that what you’re saying is part of the problem.

Even in these comments, people don’t get it, lol.

It’s bullshit all the way down.

Lol uh I mean I don’t think the author* is giving the generally normal people just working their job enough credit. In my anecdotal experience, the growth mindset stuff is just an excuse to say certain things at meetings, or make certain decisions, nobody is extremely bought in or anything.

In fact, I knew some folks that left Microsoft because of the growth mindset changes for more “old school” places like Boeing.

Generally speaking I think all these companies have some kind of cultish exterior, I can say this about Google, Apple, Amazon and Facebook for sure. If you’re ever let inside the walls though, it’s mostly regular people trying to live their lives.

Nice comic.

Used to have a copy of Wild Arms on the PSX, and there was a scratch so deep that stopped progressing past Cecilia’s intro, but man we tried.

I’m pretty fucking sure it doesn’t work like that outside of your black and white interpretation.

I’m not saying it doesn’t happen, I’m saying a lot of people find themselves in that (bad) situation either outside their control, or they can be manipulated, coerced, pressured, or hell use your imagination.

To be clear, it’s definitely not always “oh so-and-so was so obsessed with climbing the ladder that they became the bosses bitch, Oooo.” Thats a kindergarden take and, IMO, helps empower people at the top hoarding all the wealth.

I’m gonna assume you don’t know any better. Not saying there aren’t bad or stupid middle managers, but usually the middle manager is the person who got shoved into a “management” position they probably didn’t want, and all they really get to do is take all the heat when decisions they didn’t make blow up in their face. It also usually comes with false promises of raises but upper management never really intends on giving it.

It’s like, top level squeezing the bottom out 101.

And Apple will finally sell the iPhone starting with 256GB

Yet another example of companies making irresponsible anti consumer choices. You should have to pay the piper if you want to start dancing to this tune. That or you should be forced to open source your proprietary works.

Big incel energy.

Oh shit, what would I do without… Scout Analysis?

*exclusives Thankfully Sony saw the writing on the wall and began porting a lot of first party to PC.

Platforms like the Deck are the future IMO

This bad boy can run so many PS2 games

Androids best advantage used to be full control of the device… Those were the days. Then it started with saying they know better than you, then locking you out. Now I’m waiting on a new, better solution.

Honestly it’s not like native Linux is too far fetched, but there would have to be a big open source common ground device collaboration.

The fact that people pay hundreds of dollars for this OS to get advertised to is insulting. Same energy as these smart TVs that feel like they have the right to show you ads.

If I’m dictator, I’m making this shit illegal, full stop.

I will say that the Google Auth prompt in particular is just this huge nuisance and a horrible experience. People should feel stupid for including it in their web experience.

I loathe what part of the security community has become with the stunt hacking and vuln naming. That being said, I doubt it’s some conspiracy. I don’t know all the details but it wouldn’t be exceptional to identify a bug that has existed in processor firmware or legacy code for a long time.

People are looking at this stuff all the time, both professionally and for fun. You could make the case that it’s inevitable that there will be exploits found that affect a huge population.

In the end, as long as the layman gets smarter about computer security, the better people will react to vuln drops.

How else can we make money off of other people’s work?

This is just like that China social credit system
