Something in Cory Doctorow (npub1fdr…lvhs)’s npub1dqdh3ta2uxg4wz5qf7h6j0qywrxryzcyjw4vhq0n0alu83d6mgnsxm8xy4 (npub1dqd…8xy4) talk has been sitting with me all day. To summarise badly:
Tech workers were looked after when it was a scarce skill. The layoffs make it clear it isn’t as scarce anymore.
As the saying goes - the future is here just not evenly distributed.
Abused amazon delivery/warehouse workers are the tech worker future.
The only defense is to unionise.
