But github was built for remote async work and since ms acquired it got even more remote work features.

Microsoft also owns Github which is the best asynchronous remote workplace tool on the market imo. Yet here we are.
Once you get big enough you just fail upwards. Microsoft, Oracle, Google etc all have to get 1 thing right out of a 100 failures and will still continue to succeed.

Dr. Moose@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL Prisoners in the US are part of a hidden workforce linked to hundreds of popular food brandsEnglish52·7 days agoSeems like we’re in agreement here then that the issue is for-profit prisons not prison labor itself.
What really americans are missing is the cost analysis here. I’m 100% certain that it would be cheaper for US to have federally run prisons exclusively and pay prison laborers min federal wage.
The invisible crime costs in the US are absolutely insane and in no way inline with any other developed country. I was just reading front page story how a guy in San Frascisco is using movie prop paper bags (like paper bag but without the noise) to hide his 300$ worth macbook from being stolen. That’s literally like less than 3 hours of avg SF labor being at constant risk.
US prison system needs to be straight up reset from 0 - I don’t see how anything else could work here as an outsider.
Dr. Moose@lemmy.worldto Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL Prisoners in the US are part of a hidden workforce linked to hundreds of popular food brandsEnglish87·7 days agoI don’t particularly disagree with the ethics of prison labor tbh. Do you? I think the issue here is implementation not the fact that prison labor == slavery. Americans have private prisons which are fundamentally unethical making labor discussion kinda moot.
Yeah I prefer underscores too but kebab case is definitely better for web and general ergonomics. Dash doesnt require a shift hold! Tho I still mix these depeding on tool or existing idioms. One thing for sure is that spaces and capital letters are stupid and we should do less of them.

Dr. Moose@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just thatEnglish2·27 days agoIve been a pirate since the late 90s and it’s a service problem for the most part. So saying a song name on Spotify and getting what you want 99.9% of the time is an unbeatable experience. Not to mention curated and generate playlists. No piracy setup matches this that I’ve seen.

Every time I want to listen to something I’m spending 20 minutes searching for it on some forsaken pirate websites? I’m way too old and not poor enough for this.
Dr. Moose@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Been seeing a lot of posts about replacing Spotify and such, so I wrote up a guide on how I did just thatEnglish34·28 days agoI’ve tried to get away from Spotify for years and the reality is the competition still sucks. I still have Tidal and YT music subscriptions but 90% of my music is on Spotify. I don’t know why is it so hard to match this.
Self hosting music is absolutely not worth it though it seems like that’s the only way to match Spotify quality of the experience.
