I don’t really follow your train of thought. People would have been just as aware (if not more, due to the prevalence of multigenerational households) of this in the past as they are now, no?

Lol so you are denigrating companies that don’t take VC funding? I imagine you’d have criticisms for companies which are VC-funded.
My company is bootstrapped which means we are forced to grow in a sustainable way, we listen to our customers and optimize the product for their experience, and we don’t have to listen to any investors.
I’m very curious why “bootstrap” would be any sort of dogwhistle.
Interesting, my experience has been quite different but then it has been more with executives of relatively small (<500) and private companies. I’ve also seen some cases of companies closer to dictatorships, but they have (at least from my external perspective) seemed like dictators with at least clear visions. A small minority have been loudmouthed assholes.
Have you worked with very many CEOs at SMEs? Based on my experience it seems to match the description, by and large.

grindemup@lemmy.worldto Canada@lemmy.ca•Food too expensive? It’s time for public grocery stores0·1 month agoYou seem to be assuming that this idea would have to solve all food consumed by everyone. No one is making that assumption except for you.

grindemup@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Need a keyboard with a dedicated "slop" button11·1 month agoTbh in my experience LLM and other recently developed techniques such as stable diffusion are referred to as GenAI by most lay people. For both lay people and technical audience, i.e. people who work in machine learning, AI has a much broader significance.
grindemup@lemmy.worldto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Need a keyboard with a dedicated "slop" button21·1 month agoMost people on Lemmy seem to define AI as “evil machine learning that i don’t like” vs non-AI as everything else. It’s a wee bit delusional.
Honestly I don’t see them complaining nor are they pretending that it’s uniquely male. I just don’t see any words to support that. Do you think you might be reading a bit too much into it?

Sounds like you’ve definitely got your facts straight…

Next do an article on Selection BiasEnglish0·9 months agoWow, it’s amazing g that you and your friends are a globally representative sample of millenials, despite all going to the same university. I wonder what would happen if different people have different life circumstances? Well, good thing we don’t need to worry about that since you and your friends are doing okay.
grindemup@lemmy.worldto Canada@lemmy.ca•Scurvy in Canada Is a Symptom of Our Sick Politics0·9 months agoSorry to say, but this is a very colonial mindset, so much so that you did not bother to look up their treaty. As it happens, Canada has a specific obligation under Treaty 6 to provide agricultural support/development, which they have failed to do and thus have offered a settlement to the Lac La Rouge Indian Band.
You should also acknowledge that centuries of oppression, genocide, and environmental exploitation are also violations of the treaty signed by the Crown, and failures to hold up the Crown’s promise to prevent pestilence and famine… you know, like scurvy.
Please educate yourself before speaking up on matters of First Nations and treaties and propagating misinformation.
It may not have the same ring to it but if you think about it for more than two seconds you may realize that it has the same meaning :-)
