What exactly do they teach at business schools these days?

Wanting to reduce a company's dependency on humans by replacing them with slop machines, which dramatically increases the company's dependency on a mere handful of other companies makes no sense, not even from a capitalist business perspective.

Unless ... of course ... you needed some fancy buzzwords to feed to eager investors. Ah, well, there we have the answer.

RE: mastodon.neilzone.co.uk/@neil/

I would love to increase the diversity of the F-Droid board.

If you are a woman, agender, non-binary, and you are keen but unsure about nominating yourself (e.g. you doubt that you have the credentials / experience), I will be more than happy to chat / exchange email / Signal messages etc.

<p>So NodeBB tests have been failing for the past few days because <a href="http://coveralls.io/" rel="nofollow ugc">coveralls.io</a> is down.</p> <p>Coveralls is a code coverage bot that is free for open source projects. We integrated it into our workflow years ago and it's been trucking along fine all these years.</p> <p>While coveralls being down technically prevents us from running our tool to launch a new version, we could always just do it manually.</p> <p>Their outage page is here: <a href="https://status.coveralls.io/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://status.coveralls.io/</a></p> <p>They are on day 3 of the outage and have absolutely no idea when things will come back up.</p> <p>This paragraph is worded curiously: [...]</p>

@zkatkat thats surrendering the idea of what software should be to the worst actors though, large corporations want software to be irresponsible so its normal for things to fail and not directly their fault, shit like spaceflight computers and most earlier computer engineering id actually say qualifies as such without being 'stolen valor' or what have you, calling it that is succumbing to the lowered standard companies are trying to get away with rather than pointing out correctly that theyre dragging our expectations down to their profit margins so nobody ever even gets the idea of holding them accountable for shit software because 'software is just like this'

One time I interviewed at one of those tech gov contracting outfits that came out of the healthcare.gov/USDS stuff.

Front and center they had clearly stated that they wouldn't build weapons or weapon systems.

When talking to the CEO I called this "an easy ethical choice". I was trying to figure out where the line actually was.

Before I could finish my question he said "As a Business Owner it's not an easy choice."

I think about this a lot any time "A Business Owner" talks about ethics.
