As though HR are suddenly The Arbiters of Truth and that declining birth rates and increasing isolation are helped by people at working fearing being sent to HR if they make a mistake or say something non-approved.
I mean, yeah, those stats are being helped by HR, but not in the direction any sane person would favour.
You don't have to be "Arbiter of Truth" to say "hey, you're making women uncomfortable, three women have complained about your language, you're fired"
The only people who consistently have issues with HR are pieces of shit.
What I'm trying to say is that Donald Trump says things like "grab her by the pussy" and "[Haitians] are eating dogs and cats" and that's why talking like him would get you censored.
You can be conservative and not racist, or not sexist, or not a piece of shit in general. Most conservatives cannot manage that, no matter how hard they try. At least - most conservatives currently in power in the US.
So, if that's your baseline or your inspiration, then yes, you will PREDICTABILITY be censored. And I garauntee nobody gives a single fuck.
Probably not, and I've never used any of those, and never will. X used to, and then stopped, so I left. Not interested in using a service that asks you to put your effort into it and then tries to turn its control against you. Especially when there are other options.
Surely if you read the article you read the “But You're Still on Facebook and TikTok?” section and don’t need me to explain what it said - but i can summarize:
Twitter is un-aligned with their goals, and has dismal reach. Facebook and instagram are unaligned with their goals and are how they reach a lot of new people.
Not super complicated, tho if i am reading between the lines - calling out the numbers feels like a call to action for other orgs. Suggesting they run their own numbers, and get off twitter.
They said the EFF’s ideology use to be free speech absolutism.
From the EFF post linked to that we are discussing here:
Young people, people of color, queer folks, activists, and organizers use Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook every day.
<snip>
neither is pushing every user to the fediverse when there are circumstances like:
<snip>
Your abortion fund uses TikTok to spread crucial information.
You're isolated and rely on online spaces to connect with your community.
That very much makes it sound like the EFF values free speech, but only if that speech is speech they agree with.
What about if your anti-abortion fund uses X to spread crucial information. What about if you’re isolated and rely on X to connect with your community?
What if you’re not a young person, a person of color, queer, an activists, nor an organizer?
The EFF used to be free speech absolutists, it’s evident they be taken over by progressive liberals who favour free speech they agree with.
Look in to the history of cases they have litigated. There’s definitely at least some where I disagreed with the content of the speech, but agreed with the right to say it and that the EFF were correct in supporting the case.
>> Young people, people of color, queer folks, activists, and organizers use Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook every day.
> What if you’re not a young person, a person of color, queer, an activists, nor an organizer?
People who aren't young, of color, queer, activists, or organizers, use Instagram, TikTok, and Facebook every day, too. There's no good reason for an organization to have a presence on every social media platform under the sun, but there is one for limiting the overhead you have to do (and also for minimizing social media usage in general).
Because we largely want people who have committed to tens of thousands of dollars of debt to feel sufficiently warm and fuzzy enough to promote the experience so that the business model doesn’t collapse.
It’s difficult to think anyone would end up truly regretting doing a course in astrophysics, or any of the liberal arts and sciences if they have a modicum of passion, but it’s very believable that a majority of them won’t go on to have a career in it, whatever it is, directly.
They’re probably more likely to gain employment on their data science skills, or whether core competencies they honed, or just the fact that they’ve proven they can learn highly abstract concepts, or whatever their field generalises to.
Most of the jobs are in not-highly-specific academic-outcome.
Even if you land a job in your field, you will encounter that academia is backwards vs industry in some aspects and decades ahead of what is adopted in the industry in other aspects to the point where both of these mean that you won't make much use of the skills you learned in university.
Howard R. Moskowitz is an American market researcher and psychophysicist. He is known for the detailed study he made of the types of spaghetti sauce and horizontal segmentation. By providing a large number of options for consumers, Moskowitz pioneered the idea of intermarket variability as applied to the food industry.
This video explains what you’re talking about re the moons orbit always curving toward the sun, and also mentions Earths gravitational dominance.
It’s about the suns gravitational pull on the moon dominating over the Earths gravitational pull on the moon, but that due to the centrifugal force (there isn’t one, so conservation of angular momentum) the Earth's gravitational pull dominates.
The statement I made about acceleration due to gravity was with reference to an inertial frame centered on the Sun, in which there is no centrifugal force. The video you reference takes that viewpoint during its first part.
The claim about centrifugal force refers to the Hill sphere, which is a different notion of "gravitational dominance". The basic idea behind that is that, while the Sun's force on the Moon is greater than the Earth's, it varies in space, in the region where the Earth and Moon are orbiting, much less than the Earth's does. So we can "subtract out" the Sun's gravitational force, so to speak, since we can approximate it as constant in the region we're interested in.
The video, however, bungles this somewhat, because its claim about "centrifugal force" is made in a frame which is centered on the Sun--but rotating at the same rate the Earth revolves around the Sun. But nobody actually uses such a frame! Doing that would be silly. The natural frame for us on Earth to use if we "subtract out" the Sun's gravitational force to analyze the Earth-Moon motion is a frame centered on the Earth.
In this frame, we can say that the Moon orbits the Earth, not because there is some "centrifugal force" canceling out the Sun's force, but because we've subtracted out the Sun's force by centering our frame on the Earth. Or, to put it another way, we're treating the whole Earth-Moon system as freely falling in the Sun's gravitational field, and as long as the Sun's field is, to a good enough approximation, constant in the region we're interested in, we can simply ignore the Sun's gravitational force. (This viewpoint is much more natural in General Relativity, where "gravity" is not a force at all to begin with.) Such a frame is called an "Earth-Centered Inertial" frame, and it's the frame that's being used, for example, to manage the Artemis II spaceflight.
I mean, yeah, those stats are being helped by HR, but not in the direction any sane person would favour.
