my teachers used to say they were preparing us for jobs that didn't exist yet, and in hindsight they were probably hoping for "nuclear nano space-robot technician" and not "person who makes a small amount of money putting enormous amounts of personal information on the internet"

15min chess kills time well... 

10min chess kills time well...

some growing of plants outside

or growing a relationship

growing a person's experience over the internet

(because it's all trying to find another way more than money).

Not saying 0 money but that game is literally like playing those low-chance games
(and not growing people's mentality otherwise)

Chess maybe gives a few answers but that also should be more co-operative chess or forgiving playing 'life together' not at the cost of each other (which makes people pay more than needed or not sharing space) at the same time as governments taxing and extracting from our lives...

Change RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY...? 

Change RELATIONSHIP WITH MONEY...?

If all roads and relationships started with money and lead back to money... then that would explain why people are circular... and not just stupid or ignorant or those words... We didn't change money also and got comfortable in it's war / cheapening life as we chip into big pot that go off to .

It maybe explains also why people do repeated habits to cope with being taxed and charged constantly for every little things (life's taxes is alot about banks fees, bail-outs, price hikes etc)...

and you might find it hard to accept the best of worst situation, which is:

Try think of some other currency... because banks are costing us too much in losing life to it's own cold culture.

vs

CONTINUED...

◘5◘ Choc money - possibly more valuable, edible currency at least and respected by most as food

◘6◘ 'Real money' is cheaper than Monopoly printed in the same way

◘7◘ Mr Bean - I am trying to follow The Science but it keeps leading me back to money

◘8◘ Hospital / innocent workers - not realising above them they are making millions off each doc and nurse (per week!) as they do 1000x what little they are paid per hour

Money is what is making us compete rather than share... 

Money is what is making us compete rather than share.

What can you imagine from payments without banks so much?

ℹ️ Remember:
Capitalism does really well to make us fight each other using it's own 'given' money (taxed + fees + regulated %'s like chopping our legs when we are getting up well) and mentality not to share or give to better businesses.

:fediverse: 💸 ?

Money is expensive no?... 

Money is expensive no?

Think about the added fees and percentages which bring down the value of each unit of 'money' ;/ good gawd \:

Time to sort that out....

COMMENT WHAT YOU LIKE FROM THESE:

█Yes - a Paypal-like clone please / U$ ideally!

█Maybe, electric-based Bitcoin or Monero, Piratecoin etc but NOT FOREVER !
(just as a bridge for few years to starve banks / get back justice)

█No, nothing even though I'm not ok with banks either - I'm stuck

█Other... (reply to this idea)

Do remember perfect answers are not necessarily the aim and can be 2-part unfolding or just bridge to another tactic and almost always is this way to achieve starving banks first and then get people ready for step 2...3...)

◘1◘ "In debt we trust." (God has been deprecated, had it's uses on bill like inventors are supposed to give dirty money respect)

◘2◘"Inflation is in effect a hidden tax. The money that people have save is robbed" (mathematically and by banks uneven charging / using our money while they are supposed to store it not re-lend it!) + not so hidden if you track prices as things go up, houses triple and salaries stay same for years]

◘3◘ Printed money dress

◘4◘ Muppet pic - Landlords exposed - if your landlord can't afford the property without your rent, then you're the one providing housing to THEM!

I am truly amazed at the number of applicants I have seen off of this single post. And almost all are well suited candidates worth my time to review. I am astonished that a single post on the fedi is more effective than actually hiring a recruiter. Thank you everyone for the boosts and applications.

While many applicants have made it through and are currently being hired because we have so many positions we have quite a few still available for every level from sr to jr, and both data scientists and programmers. So please keep boosting, sharing, and applying if anyone is interested.

Just a reminder this is 100% remote, no fixed hours, will pay market rates for position. I will be your direct boss and hiring manager (also owner, founder, and inventor of the tech).

🎓 Doc Freemo :jpf: 🇳🇱  
I am still hiring for top-tier programmers and data scientist. Please reboost, share, recommend, or reply if you know anyone who might be intereste...

People that suddenly stop replying... (after people in positions asked about using Google / AI / etc)... 

@wfryer Hi, I am just saying I've sent few messages and seems obvious I'm being ignored or something as you reply to others. Still time but saying things earlier on this side.

I can handle if you like using Google and AI etc but not replying about dangers in your using them in your work-flow / work with others / your practices which shouldn't involve disconnect after being ok to talk initially and with no obvious problem there. So.. Just say how it is!

--------------------------------
The rest below is extra and just writing practice.

The first parts above are the main thing so don't interpret mass below as anything much bigger than you ignoring things / not replying suddenly.
--------------------------------

I am also writing to say I making it clear in this way because frankly people doing this isn't good enough and though it's maybe not personal / direct to me, it is all kinda in the end in some way as so many impersonal things in the world accumulate and add up, so not all your fault at all but you could say *some* more.

Some quotes to make this a bit creative / interesting...

"History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people."
- Martin Luther King, Jr.

“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.”
- Edmund Burke.

And maybe it's ok to be imperfect...

"There are no good people, only good actions" - Andrew Patricio

So this needs solving (in teaching, in tech etc, in many things) and just saying I never aimed to harass any teacher that doesn't answer(!)... but having a position or claiming to do things right naturally involves a bit of flack and like I suggested make a FAQ page to answer people who ask why you use non-FLOSS stuff... or if I have it wrong just say so (a bit).

I can't even accept 'too busy' at this point as you're too good replying / doing things elsewhere. Totally I can accept "I like Google because xyz and AI as it save me time regardless of danger down the line of giving my data to them" - in short - I'll accept that.

I hope you wouldn't expect anything less than someone trying to sort out why people disconnect in the world and what it's basically and deliberately being politically silent... which in the end does say things or leave others to their own conclusions or wondering why. Not that I'm not trying to make too fast a judgement but obviously you were happy to talk before and suddenly not now 🤔

So that's my respect given to you in saying directly "hey I'm waiting" and not behind your back complaining, as you see from those who don't get a bit of answer obviously in the world already. I wrote to you about BigTech and war without putting all on you but hey you tell me.

You have opportunity to say else you're free to ignore (and happy even to receive that as message).

I reserve re-drafting this especially if I review myself as wrong in some way or can better say it... but thought it better written earlier than never.

Thanks.

Life might be like running through a fire and hoping to escape the burning building by carefully looking but also just going for it (and hoping to reach the other side)

Tetris Creator Claims Free and Open Source Software Destroys the Market.

Good for discussion / debate.
Reply welcome as it's from Russian Tetris creator so mixed worlds O_O

(money, capitalism, gaming, programming etc)

Clip in question:

'Free Software should have never existed,' since it 'destroys the market' by bringing down companies that create wealth and prosperity.

When asked about Red Hat or Oracle's support-oriented model, he called them 'a minority,' and also criticized Stallman's ideas as 'belonging to the past' where there were no software 'business possibilities.'"

People are not going to work well inside templates of and general mentality. Must be warmer!

If you start using AI and then AI starts using you, are you going to be shocked like Wizard of Oz characters?

Illness and Mental Trauma: Recovering from the past, with people in the future... Looking at everyone as being ill on some level (illness as: in having trauma and surviving it / past generations of mistakes/decisions)... 

Illness and Trauma: Recovering from the past, with people in the future...

If you look at everyone as being ill / having illness from the past, on some level then illness can be seen as the trauma and surviving it (the past) and generations of mistakes / decisions / not fixing it / just doing a job and raising a family less consciously)... then this can help you see people for what they can be good for and keep going during any tough spots with each other.

Because nobody escapes the past and if you're comfortable, be sure it was based on that keeps you comfortable with very visible signs of enslavement still together (controllers are not really working on it and we are dealing with that).
