@greycat @godpod EXACTLY!

And they should only be paid for the time they are actually working, not a second more!

Also every kind of income should be taxed like #WageWork and #BuyBorrowDie needs to be criminalized as illegal #TaxDodging and #SocialSecurityFraud!

Hi there! This is the #introduction for the official account of "Alternatives in UK", a new project by @toychicken to start mapping #UKalternatives for digital products, platforms and services.

Our hope is that with this map, we can find and celebrate great UK alternatives, or highlight gaps that might need to be addressed.

#contributions and #suggestions welcomed and encouraged!

🇬🇧 The members of @tuchemnitz can once again look forward to an award from the DFG. For the funding period 2025-2027, the DFG is providing 439,000 euros for #openaccess publications. The #fund is not only limited to articles but can also be used for scientific #monographs #collective #volumes and #collective #contributions.
The aim is to support as many open access publication channels as possible, regardless of subject or publication form. #ubchemnitz

On NJPBS' #news show NJ Spotlight News, the #PBS channel reported that the vehicle dealers' lobby successfully advanced a bill to delay the state's mandate to start phasing in electric heavy duty vehicles. The #environmental groups in #newjersey need to do better fundraising to make the necessary #political #contributions to #politicians to advance the pro-NJ agenda. We are getting eaten alive by car dealers, #fossilfuel companies, and the gas station lobby.

Noone has yet explained to me why Benzos, MiskRat & Co. should get #millons if not #billions of money yet they can't really "outwork" their employees on the floors to that extent, nor do they bear any personal risks that would rationalize that amount of compensation.

  • IOW: If someone isn't putting their life on the line to save lives like a firefighter, why should they get paid more than the #paygrade of a# firefighter?

What net benefit to society does a person bring who hoarded so much money that neither them nor their children or grandchildren will ever have to do #wagework in their entire lives??

On Thursday at 3.30pm CEST I'll give my talk "Many ways to be a Python contributor" at the Prague Congress Centre during EuroPython 2024 🐍
