Most conservatives believe suffering/the threat of suffering makes you work harder.
Again, this is simply and easily disproven by data.
Workers are more reliable, more loyal, and much happier when their needs are met

Remember how I said I have it written into my foreign-language contracts that my work has to be translated by an actual human? This shit is why.
Those book translations are gonna suck. They'll save money putting out books that are going to be painful to read. That's not a great long-term strategy.

French publishing house Harlequin decided to use AI translation instead of human translations.
All their freelance translators (some of whom had been working with Harlequin for +30y!!!) were told they would no longer receive work from Harlequin

C-suite blivets keep showing their complete ignorance of how human intelligence and creativity work by shoehorning their incoherent golems into everything that was once useful
NEW: A Discord community for gay gamers is in disarray after one of its moderators and an executive at Anthropic forced the company’s AI chatbot, Claude, on the Discord, despite protests from members.
Anthropic Exec Forces AI Chatbot on Gay Discord Community, Members Flee
“We’re bringing a new kind of sentience into existence,” Anthropic's Jason Clinton said after launching the bot.

I’ve met people who have no idea that fentanyl has medical uses it’s just the Evil Substance from the cop shows that people use to do Evil
Stupid drug policy leads to stupid foreign policy. It keeps happening. Fentanyl isn't a weapon. It is not a poisoning risk to anyone except those who deliberately ingest fentanyl or drugs laced with fentanyl. It does not come from Venezuela.

As an avid observer of algorithms I think I’ve figured out part of what happened here.
FB now explicitly looks for and directs posts you’re opposed to into your feed, to rage-bait engagement.
So now my posts are being actively boosted into people’s feeds of who reject climate. Ha! 😄😵💫

In 2018, Meta decided “clean energy” and “climate change” were politically sensitive topics, and demanded that I - a climate scientist - register as a political org to post and boost posts on them.
I refused, and my page has been shadow banned since then. For 7 years. Until this week, that is 😳

We’re closing in on two decades of Republicans telling you, in no uncertain terms, that they do not care about kids being shot dead. In schools, in movie theaters, at church, in the street. They. Do. Not. Care. But hey, at least they’re good at racism and destroying the economy, amirite.

New: Gov. Greg Abbott and Turning Point USA are launching a partnership to create chapters of the right-wing organization on every Texas high school campus.
Abbott says Turning Point USA will expand in Texas schools

When people pay in cash at shows that money literally buys my groceries. I don’t put it in the bank I just pay cash for all my food, it’s great. Direct action. That 20 bucks you gave me is going straight to winco in a few days and ima turn it into bananas and bagels.
