Systems based on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and automated decision-making (ADM) are increasingly being experimented with and used on migrants, refugees, and travelers. Too often, this is done without adequate democratic discussion or oversight. In addition, their use lacks transparency and justifi...
any public space that intermediates people attention is eventually going to be spam by bots, proportionally to the number of people present. Lemmy doesn't do much to avoid this. The public internet has no future and the fediverse should be building tools for federated community spaces rather than public spaces shaped in the image of attention-harvesting machines.

I don't keep anything relevant on my machine. It's just a way to access data hosted somewhere more safe. Also files and folders are terrible ways to organize anything, even remotely like Google Drive or similar stuff. It's Microsoft's and Apple's brainrot outliving the 90s. We should move forward.

Meta immediately vowed to appeal the substantial fine from the EU.
Definitely Instagram.
While Lemmy is slowly making a dent in my reddit participation, it doesn't do much for other things. I'm involved in IRL politics, food, and the clubbing scene, all stuff that is almost completely absent on the fediverse, especially the American-dominated side of it.
A full wallet among other wallets, perfectly disguised. Somebody left it there a few hours before. It was a guy from Scotland on a trip with his friends who went shopping for party clothes. He answered on Instagram (after much stalking) at midnight when I was already inside a club and they were on their way to the club too. So we rendez-vous at 6 AM after clubbing because they had a train at 8AM for another city. They left some joints at my place as a thank you. Also offered some ketch for a, I shit you not, "crunchy landing".

I track everything private and professional on Notion.
I have dedicated databases for

- calls and meetings I have to set up
- credits and debits I have open
- classes and workshops I'm hosting
What are some community on Lemmy where tech workers talk about politics/techno-politics, unionizing or other spicy topics?
Good morning, Lemmy. I come to you with a request for help. We want to crowd-map some communities on Lemmy.
Since we are on lemmy.ml, I'm taking for granted a degree of political alignment, which probably is not worth discussing in this thread.
Within the broader context of the Tech Workers Movement, we are building a database of communities, hashtags, influencers, or generally friendly digital spaces in which tech workers, or people generally interested in tech politics and tech unionization, congregate and produce/consume content. The goal is simply to help union organizers, movement builders, theorists, agitators, and really anybody involved in the tech workers movement to discover where to find online tech workers receptive to political content.
To do so, we have a quickly growing public database that accepts submissions through a form. We also explain the methodology used to curate the database and give hints on how to submit an entry.
We want to focus a bit on expanding the Lemmy section, so feel free to submit your favorite techno-political communities. Communities generally about technology are also fine as long as they accept a degree of mild political content. If you just want to reply to this thread instead of submitting the form, it is also fine and we can have a discussion going and you can directly share your relevant communities with the other users.
Thanks in advance for your answers ^^
I made it! It wasn't that hard, the API was quite straightforward.

Automate posting to Lemmy through no-code tools
Hello.
I was developing a system/tutorial on how to build a self-hosted, collaborative content circulation no-code setup, using nocodb and n8n.
n8n does not yet support lemmy, not even through community nodes.
I can try to go through the API using the HTTP node, but I wanted to ask if there's some tutorial with examples that I can use, because so far most of the documentation I've found is focused on building alternative clients and that's a lot of overhead, especially in how I'm supposed to handle the credentials.
That said, I'm opening this postly mostly to see if there would be interest in developing a community node. This should be a quite easy project for anybody familiar with Lemmy and Lemmy's REST API. Here's a community node for mastodon, that looks quite close to what Lemmy's community node could look like.
https://github.com/n8n-community-node/n8n-nodes-mastodon/tree/master/nodes/Mastodon
It's mostly a matter of specifying a bunch of metadata about the fields of the node, and implement a few calls to the API. I know some TS and JS but they are not my strongest language. If somebody is willing to lead this effort though, I could contribute some code and some design documents.

Do you ever make things harder for people around you intentionally? If so, why? If not, why do you think do that against you?
are you familiar with left-wing blockchain and that whole strand of research or you just talk because you have no clue about the fact that there's always been plenty of anti-capitalist and post-capitalist in the blockchain scene?
Have you watched the video or just stopped at the title?
There's a lot of lefitsts spaces in the blockchain. While they are minoritarian, they have a distinct political agenda and set of values, separate from most of the web3 world. They either envision the usage of blockchain for local economies (an evolution of circular economy and local currencies that were popular in the 90's and 2000s), or more global scale realignment of incentives, either through socialist market economies or more planning-oriented solutions.

I know people that occupied the offices. They were perfectly aware they would be fired and the people selected for the action were the least vulnerable economically, because retaliation was certain. Anything else is journalistic spin.
That's exactly how eventually you are going to get Trump. Voting the lesser evil always, inevitably leads to the major evil. I live in a country that already elected fascists with this same logic and US is going to follow soon.
everything that has happened so far has happened under a dem administration. 40+k deaths and endless displaced. Stop being delusional, dems are genocidal and you're guilty too.

why? how? how do you rationalize this when the Biden administration is openly endorsing and supporting genocide? How could Trump make it worse? Write racist slurs on the bombs sent to Israel?

I know this goes against the popular narrative about Kamala Harris, especially after the recently concluded Democratic National Convention (DNC).
