I think this is very interesting, and you should go pester ones like Stephen Fry on mastadon to come have a play with lemmy

Just as a homage to Stephen Fry in particular, here's a fantastic audiobook version of hitchhiker's guide to the galaxy on archive.org

There are no metics to support any drop in productivity. There are lots of metrics to support making people go back to the office is bad for the environment. The traffic were I live is pretty much back to what it was before. It's gross just watching the haze of fumes knowing it is there so these dickheads can maintain their property portfolio.

If only society was designed around looking after people instead of infinite competition, maybe this wouldn't be so much of a problem

I think most people would vacate the area if you started discussing your resent of science. I'm guessing you're some sort of religious fundamentalist?

I found khan academy to be really good. My daughter handled the JavaScript module pretty well at the age of 9. If your son is already familiar with the concept of programming and can read well enough, I'd be pretty sure he'd enjoy this

And the same day stirred up a shit storm about watering down climate commitments, surely coincidence...

Unfortunately they are likely looking to both destroy free communication and the climate, and not just using it as a ruse... They're psychotic.

The Art of Money Getting: Use The Best Tools

Men in engaging employees should be careful to get the best. Understand, you cannot have too good tools to work with, and there is no tool you should be so particular about as living tools. If you get a good one, it is better to keep him, than keep changing. He learns something every day; and you are benefited by the experience he acquires. He is worth more to you this year than last, and he is the last man to part with, provided his habits are good, and he continues faithful. If, as he gets more valuable, he demands an exorbitant increase of salary; on the supposition that you can't do without him, let him go. Whenever I have such an employee, I always discharge him; first, to convince him that his place may be supplied, and second, because he is good for nothing if he thinks he is invaluable and cannot be spared.
