We are living in a golden age of species discovery
The search for life on Earth is speeding up, not slowing down. Scientists are now identifying more than 16,000 new species each year, revealing far more biodiversity than expected across animals, plants, fungi, and beyond.ScienceDaily
Did AI really take their jobs?
As big tech companies sack staff and say AI will pick up the slack, workers are left to grapple with what's really going on.Julian Fell (ABC News)

Many companies over-hired as a type of skills hoarding.
I had never thought this was a "thing" - but perhaps my middle daughter was a "victim". A few years ago her first job out of college was with Oracle, in the marketing department. I had a few conversations with her about what she was doing. She said that she was working with a team doing "direct" marketing - but from what I could gather there was little actual work going on, and the few phone calls that were made were superficial and even rather perfunctory. She left the job after about 6 months out of shear boredom.

Looks like a #RoughSkinnedNewt! They're neat little dudes. I see them sometimes swimming around in the #PNW.
Don't touch 'em (or let a critter lick/eat one) though; their skin has a gnarly tetrodotoxin.
Agents shouldn’t have to figure everything out from scratch.
Right now, they do.
cq is a Stack Overflow for agents, where knowledge is shared and improved over time.
Less repetition. More reliable outcomes.

Just a quick intro post to say hello!
I'm a mid-40s woman in tech and security engineer. I'm neurodivergent, genderfluid, and my pronouns are she/they.
I tend to use Mastodon for the things I love and enjoy, and I'll include a few of them in the hashtags.
Sharing a pic of me wearing my comfy Dustrial hoodie. In case I look familiar, I have migrated from elsewhere on the Fediverse!

"Don’t tell me or it won’t happen."
I just turned one of those bold, round numbers that invites metaphysical thoughts about Time. Waking up at forty, I find myself in a body that feels healthy. From here, the past doesn’t look effortless: waking at six, workouts, repetitions, injuries, recoveries. But it does feel contingent. Perhaps a future version of me wished it so. Maybe a wish is not something that happens in the future, but something that selects a past.
Not an injection of energy, but a constraint on what histories are allowed, a pressure that filters the trajectories that can lead to this moment. There has to be a sequence of events that leads to the arrangement of me now. Perhaps this is the only history that survives the constraint of a wish I would one day impose: that I be well.
If so, thanks.
🔨 Todos deberíamos ser luditas
Meta perdió 77.000 millones USD en el metaverso (~PIB de Uruguay) antes de aceptar que nadie lo quería. Los luditas del siglo XIX no odiaban las máquinas: rechazaban su implantación sin debate, que destruía empleos y comunidades. Hoy OpenAI pierde 7.800 millones y no espera beneficios hasta 2030, pero nos venden un futuro "inevitable".

¿Qué futuros tecnológicos nos están vendiendo como inevitables que podríamos simplemente... ignorar?

Epic Games just laid off over 1,000 people

A bit concerning for the company how much of the reasons were related to Fortnight. It can't be healthy to put almost all of your money on one pony.
Secondarily, lowering wages and raising cost of living is leading to well-known results. It's just, that, well...
So 20% of the company laid off.
meh...just another shitty billionaire doing shitty billionaire things.
what did you expect from him? To *not* suck people dry and throw them away?
Stop being surprised at this stuff. Maybe don't play billionaire's games instead. Then you can just skip the "betrayal and anger" bit when they fuck their employees over. Again. And again.
