So many bright people I know are either out of work or are dissatisfied with their current employment. Wish there was some way I could figure out how to weave all of this talent into something where everyone could be happy and fulfilled. There has to be a way; some sort of cosmic pattern we can use to make things into a quilt of awesome or something.

@craigmaloney @clacke I think one possible answer is worker owned co-operatives.

@sajith @craigmaloney Oh! I had no idea Igalia was this kind of thing. And I do read Wingolog on occasion, just not all the way back to 2013. Will read the series when I have a moment.
sajith @sajith

@clacke @craigmaloney I started reading Wingolog in 2003 or so, back when Advogato used to be a thing...

Hallå Kitteh @clacke@social.heldscal.la
@sajith @craigmaloney I have no idea what I was reading in 2003. Probably Slashdot at best.
sajith @sajith

@clacke @craigmaloney I've forgotten that Slashdot is still a thing! 😳

@sajith @craigmaloney You are mistaken. It is not a thing.
sajith @sajith

@clacke @craigmaloney How so? :-)

@sajith @clacke I was a huge fan of Slashdot and even worked for Geeknet. Now that CmdrTaco and Hemos are no longer there the Slashdot I knew is moribund. I stopped reading it when they had Slashdot BI (Which was for Business Intelligence and not what it should have meant).

sajith @sajith

@craigmaloney @clacke I too was a fan. Used to save Slashdot pages for later reading back when I was on dialup!

I've seen Unknown Lamer lamenting the state of Slashdot in IRC. I guess this is yet another case of an ineptly run corporation coming along and ruining things for everyone.

@sajith @craigmaloney Well, I use myself as a proxy for whether it's a thing and I stopped following it years ago. ;-)
