@coriander to be clear i think the remaining 10% is important and sometimes essential work, keeping the internet running for example is good, but it’s also not where the money is

@coriander problem with tech is that it’s working class, but also a grift. 90% of it is conning rich people into paying lots of money for magic words that do nothing. and it’s hard to get people to take seriously that yes, we should keep conning rich people out of their money, but as a unionized workforce this time

music

re: character sets
@aescling just how the maths works out; anyway there’s three more of these
