indeed you are correct. crossedwires with paint.net | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
I mean, that doesn't mean it wasn't unintentional. As someone working at an even larger corp, I have sat through enough meetings and discussions where equally dumb things make it a long, long way without anyone noticing.
To be clear, I don't think this was an innocent mistake on Adobe's part. It seems very intentional. I just wanted to push back on the idea that something couldn't make it out unintentionally. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Nah I'm good, imagine the scenario.
Cop: "License & registration"
Me: "Ok" -reaches for phone-
Cop: -reaches for sidearm-
Now obviously this is an extreme but plenty of cops seem to have trigger fingers nowadays and anything might set them off. What if the cop claim that he has to take your phone cause his scanner is having an issue? What if the cop straight up refuses to scan it? What if the app has an issue and can't open while your at a traffic stop? There are way to many issues with this for me to feel even remotely comfortable leaving my physical card at home. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

It’s more of an orchestrator, similar to what many PMs currently do. Us devs are still in the calls, but now AutoPM handles guiding the conversation, keeping us on topic, etc etc.
The scary thing is it actually seems really good. It doesn’t just interrupt, and will wait for pauses to tell us to “take things offline” for discussion. I don’t think it’s better than a human, but surprisingly, it doesn’t seem much worse. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

It’s both, and BLS etc report on both.
And it’s important to tease out of any article which is which, because people / writers mix the two and the data from either/both all the time.
There’s the tech sector which encompasses the companies you’re thinking about and their products, then there are tech roles at tech and non tech companies and governments. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Tax rates are actually quite low in the US. They used to be higher, but Republicans have cut taxes and then used the resulting lack of money to demand cuts to social services.

Love to see a billionaire wasting their time on Reddit. They really are no different than you or I! | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
I was incredulous as a manager in HR training when they were explaining how inflation doesn't affect the cost of labor, and how they could seemingly dictate that cost. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
So, non-core business that would likely be better served with contractors?
Also, I understand you’re going to have to pay the engineers Bay Area salaries, but having to pay Bay Area salaries to workers you could outsource to wherever seems like a good business plan. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
For real, though… people need to stop pretending like it’s all okay just because “some” of them are from HR or non tech positions, too. It’s people losing jobs. Fuck off with all that. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Tong sisko? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
I’m surprised not more tech employees are speaking out about this. More tech companies are outsourcing jobs to low cost of living hubs in massive droves. Layoffs in tech result in the roles being replaced and rehired in places like India and South America. Google is the worst offender for this and they’re blatantly doing it in plain sight, yet no Google employees speak out. As someone who knows several who work in the Bay Area, they’re all seeing their teams disappear and new hires reappearing in India or Brazil. Meanwhile stock prices are at ATHs, yet layoffs still happening. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Right, but it’s the “they aren’t tech workers” that bothers me. Plenty of people work in tech and aren’t necessarily engineers. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Kinda. Dogfooding is like Google creating Gmail and also using Gmail internally so they can easily gather feedback. Or the creators of Slack using Slack internally as their primary communication tool. It's generally a cheap solution for quick feedback and you can get a lot of people on internal beta builds to try out the next 'release' and root out some bugs before it goes public. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
You’re misunderstanding what I mean when I say tech. Their is technicalities in anything. But when people talk about “Big Tech” they generally mean the engineers. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
I have to admit.. as much as I don't want to be "that guy" (faking it till making it).. there's also a part of me that sorta wants to play that game just to get more pay. I think at my age and experience in the industry, I could probably "fake it" for a couple years at least in any new job. Course I also don't want to be "that guy" who's Resume shows them hopping jobs every 2 years,. but then again,. how do you tell the difference between someone who's just "job hopping" versus someone who's growing and learning and just changing jobs to improve themselves .. ?.. not sure.
One thing I think that also plays a factor in this is post-pandemic cleanup. I see a lot of organizations that are still cleaning up post-pandemic mess (internal mess) as well as dealing with higher employee-turnover and (at least the 2 orgs I've been part of).. everything just seems to be a mess still. It's kinda easy to "hide in that mess" if you wanted to. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
All of the billionaires in the world have a [combined net worth of $4.48 Trillion](https://www.statista.com/statistics/1291685/us-combined-value-billionaire-wealth/). That includes all their stock, cash, real estate, etc. The US has a [budget deficit of $1.6 Trillion](https://usafacts.org/state-of-the-union/budget/). Therefore your plan would plug the hole in the government's budget for 2 years and then we'd be back to where we are. And that's not counting the massive stock market crash that would occur from all of the stock liquidations. And that's not with any new services or anything. That would just be keeping the government from continuing to lose more money.
I'm all for taxing billionaires and closing the borrowing money loophole, but the solution isn't nearly as simple as you think it is. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Speak out in what way? I'm not going publicly post something in my real name so that a potential employer can use it as an excuse not to hire me later. Lots of people are already complaining online anonymously but that isn't likely to matter. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
That’s exactly the point. Anonymous coverage is perfect but news outlets aren’t covering this great migration of tech jobs to foreign countries. You can do anonymous interviews with news outlets, but they have to pick up the story too. Posting on Reddit or Blind unfortunately isn’t going to do anything. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

Democracies fail because people are stupid | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
My view is much different. Robotic automation means the value of labor will go down and with it all non-land equity, including the value of all debt. Soo the wealth inequity problem mostly just sollve itself as you automate and the cost of living gets ultra low.
That Rich guys 20 billion in equity becomes worth a fraction of its value since it can all be remade with automation for pennies of the dollar or original value. The rich will lose the most equity as new labor prices reset the values of pretty much everything.
I was more worried about wealth consolidation in the past than now because it's pretty clear robotic humanoid labor is possible and coming soon. That's not like previous tech that changed the world like the tractor for instance, it's far more wide reaching like computers impacting every industry, but with physical automation like the tractor or bulldozer. It will be huge in terms of changing society and costs AND the values of almost everything. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |
Rich people hire people to make themselves money. Capitalism isn’t some charity. It’s a means of acquisition of wealth.
Ask a poor person how much money they have bought this year. They will look at you like you’re stupid cause they can barely buy the things they need.
Rich people on the other hand? They buy money by the cashbag. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-14-06 |

I mean calling any call centre is like pulling teeth. It’s unfortunate that the employees have to bear the brunt of a businesses incompetence. maybe companies just need to stop being so moronic with the level of support.
“Oh you’re having an issue? That must be your fault. You’re doing something wrong. Definitely not our fault, nope. Never.”
“This is the wrong line, let me transfer you so you can explain everything again for the 100th time”
“We are running a callback service we’ll call back within the hour” (never calls back) | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
It is absolutely fair. Being upset does not give you the right to become abusive and it *certainly* does not obligate others to tolerate your abuse if you do.
And it's very easy to say "oh, you just have to stop hating the person on the other line" when you don't have to deal with this 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.
And that's not even counting the fact that their frustrations are often completely insane. Do you even know how many times I was screamed at because a person spent their *own money* and was now broke when I worked at a bank call center? Or how many times I was screamed at because I refused to break federal laws or basic security policies?
I'll say it again - the mental health of workers is more important than humoring a person who cannot communicate like a reasonable adult.
Call center workers are *people*, not emotional punching bags. People with feelings and emotions and traumas and frustrations of their own. They deserve the basic dignity of not getting screamed at every day for things that they cannot control. I've had coworkers transfer calls to me while *in tears* from how awful some customers are. I've had multiple coworkers suffer actual mental breaks from the stress. That is not something they should be expected to deal with, *especially* not for the kind of pay they get.
But sure, you go ahead and keep advocating for the kinds of people who call in to verbally abuse workers who can't stand up for themselves without losing their livelihood. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

I was thinking about this a few days ago, if Chinese brands comply with European standards (EuroNCAP and similar), what's the problem?
It is not unfair competition if both sides are playing by the same rules.
But it's clear that it doesn't suit the European brands because it would force them to be competent and affordable. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Bro chinese EVs are nothing compared to ones we produce. In EU/US there actually are safety standards to meet, if you look at the failure rate of those Chinese EV's batteries you'll realize you're driving a death trap.
Just look at some of the videos of China Insights (youtube) regarding chinese EV's to get a better idea. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

I'm not familiar with a lot of EU standards on things, but does that cover the labor? China uses dirt cheap labor to undercut costs quite a bit. Same with environmental regulations, the EU and USA have a lot of regulations around it that China doesn't. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
>You can’t just look at the consumer, there has to be incentive and opportunity for domestic automakers to improve and potentially lower costs in the future.
What fucking incentive is there to improve or lower costs when the gov will raise the cost of your competitors to always make sure you are competitive? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
100% USA and Europe are just doing what China’s been doing to our companies for years. Everyone wants cheap stuff but governments still need to protect the jobs of their own people, not that they’ve been doing a great job at that. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
The goal is not to shock the system, but to set foreign imported auto prices reasonably below domestic prices. This still gives incentive for domestic automakers to compete without wiping them out, which is what a shock could do.
Chinese cars will likely still be below EU car prices, just not as much anymore.
If they really wanted to remove competition, they’d do what the US did, which is essentially ban them from selling and manufacturing there.
IMO these tariffs don’t meaningfully hurt Chinese EVs or future EV competitiveness in the EU. It feels more like incentive to get these foreign autos to set up manufacturing in the EU, which is already happening. This will benefit the EU jobs market, continue to pressure EU automakers to innovate, and provide profits for China’s automakers. Seems like a good compromise. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Are you joking right now? Electronic waste? Economics? Of course you haven't seen the tariffs that China has imposed on EU manufacturers? Chinese vehicles are produced much cheaper due to slave labour, poor quality materials, etc. This tariff is to prevent these products from flooding the market due to way lower prices and also undermining whole market. If you need more details please read the article first and then the rest of the comments. Everything is already explained. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Hey CCP try and downvote everyone who is exposing what your cheap EVs are really, an attempt to control the market by pushing the others out, this is possible for China because they can afford to pay crap, not care about how the resources are exploited and the sites taken care of, spend less on R&D as tech stealing is no problem for them and then on top of all of that subsidize the companies.
You can even pay some trolls to try and spread crap, but unfortunately the world understands how you play, how you made the world reliant on your productions and even medicine. DW documentaries have a very good cover on it (medicine part) and also the same trolls are there in the comments of course.
And then they fake cry on the tariffs as if they haven't done the same to Europe for longer.
Pathetic people really. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

People in this thread are going ham against China for… subsidizing things like EVs that have a positive impact in their own society instead of subsidizing bombs and drones to kill middle eastern children like the US does | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
>And explain how that's any different to companies that take advantage of cheap labour by basing manufacturing in China or India? Explain how that's different to companies taking advantage of cheaper costs when moving services overseas? Why is it OK for Western companies to take advantage in the name of profit?
Even though for example Xiaomi and Apple make their phones by a Foxconn factory. Apple can enforce different rules for these product lines. Still not ideal, but western companies do tend to follow the international rule of law far more closely. Look at Temu, they do utilize forced Uyghur labor. While for example a Zara has to avoid it or else they will get legal issues within Europe because in Europe businesses are required to follow certain ethical codes.
>China is able to manufacture at a far lower cost and those vehicles will contribute to green energy consumption. Their vehicles are feature rich, have impressive range, and they are cheap and affordable to the general public.
China is able to produce for less costs because of subsidizes that go against fair business practices. Next to that they have been stealing our secrets for decennia currently. They never had to invest like what other car manufacturers had to do.
>Meanwhile, many of our so called "environmental caring companies" offshore their manufacturing so that it looks like they give a dam about the environment on paper, but are simply passing the buck for other countries to deal with.
We are talking about cars here, most European brands produce in Europe, Most Japanese in Japan etc.
>The EU are simply protecting interests. Germany particularly have a large automotive industry, supply much of the West with brands like VW, Audi, Mercedes and BMW. China is able to offer more for less and they don't like the threat.
Ofcourse they do, because China is not playing by the same rules. Multiple industries already have been destroyed due to unfair practices.
>Remember that next time the EU claims to "care about the environment" and the next time they impose taxes in the name of green energy. If it wasn't for Tesla, many of these manufacturers would still be pushing petrol and diesel vehicles. They should be well ahead of China but didn't adapt because they were took focused on profit at the time.
This is speculation at best. Toyota for example was pooping out Prius cars well before Tesla was even a thought. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |

>Also America doesn't use it's prison labor to undercut the entire global market like China does.
It does with heavily subsidized oil production. Or at least we attempt to, except we can't produce enough to overcome OPEC entirely.
No, instead America uses colonialism, subterfuge, and sanctions to undercut the global population, how many coups has America been involved in or directly caused? 53 last time I looked it up, probably more now since we tried to prop up that right wing authoritarian in Chile and have recently been open about propping up Maduro in Venezuela. So is it ok to have coup'd or attempted to overthrow/control literally dozens of nations for American conglomerates for a century? Do you know WHY the term "banana republic" exists? Did China do ANY of that?
Is there a derisive term for people like you? Authoritarian capitalist defenders? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
> So you'd rather all these jobs go overseas
If that’s how it plays out, sure. The unemployment rate right now is <4%.
Why should I pay 2-3x as much for something just to support “bringing jobs back.” Paying people more arbitrarily as a value statement when the market says the rate for that work is lower doesn’t lead to prosperity lol. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Disinformation campaign? Lol, nah. People just don’t give a fuck about auto manufacturers/governments that wouldn’t piss on them if they were on fire. These regulations do literally nothing for average citizens except cost them more money.
Give me the cheap EVs. I do not care who makes them. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
I do not give a shit about what’s “fair” to multi-billion dollar corporations. As if they have ever played fair, lmao. These companies were literally making vehicles for Hitler but suddenly morals matter? Hilariously delusional.
Imagine getting out capitalismed by a communist country. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
lol, these companies would outsource production to China in a second if it was more profitable for them. fuck em. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
Sorry, i think you’ve misunderstood. Capitalism is good when companies can outsource to China for profit. When China wants to import cheaper goods without US companies profiting from it, then it’s bad. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-12-06 |
