• (in-house) Recruiter
• Project Manager
• Agile Coach

These are probably my top three. Recruiters who work in company HR, are usually very moody about who they pick, based on personal preference rather than facts. Sole proprietor recruiters are effective though, that’s why only the in-house ones.

The other two are similar, but they’re the “I work in IT” people who neither possess nor perform the technicalities. Actual imposters (unlike many good folk who do fair work but sometimes suffer from the “imposter syndrome”).

And yes, exceptions happen too. I just dislike these three roles in particular.

I doubt they did - they only speak up for the fictional customer, meanwhile silently complying to whatever government requests user data from them.

They’ll say anything just to distract their users away from them being caught red handed in the act of giving away their data to the governments all around the world.

Classic business marketing.

Don’t you think it’s a bit over the top representation of the MLs? They’re way more cohesive than that, and there’s no Stalin in the “Marxist-Leninist”.

It’s not about universal hate towards a particular nation - more about the idea how our current society is becoming progressively more unbearable by denying life basics to the common folk. Things like “earning a living wage” implies that below a certain threshold we don’t deserve to live. Real estate developers scalping the housing, making it unaffordable. All while a few hundred people owns a huge portion of wealth, constantly growing it and meddling into politics.

Other things like the reality of not actually being able to vote things away once totalitarian parties takeover a country’s legal systems using democratic means.

There’s plenty of that going as to why many like Karl Marx as a literary inspiration.

It’ll definitely switch to local. The electricity and water bills for these AI data centres are enormous, and it’s not getting any better. They’ll either cut it off due to being unsustainable regarding their profit margins, or some laws will curb them down due to wasting Earth’s resources. OpenAI has been operating at a loss since it started, and it’s only sustained by external investments, and it’s not the only case of AI being unprofitable.
