It's common for actors too, and the entertainment industry generally. when you don't know/care who they're talking about, then you're not in their circle. They exclude, and suddenly the circle is smaller and richer. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────┘ === SIMILARITY RANKED === --- #1 fediverse/5672 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────── ┌──────────────────────────┐ │ CW: capitalism-mentioned │ └──────────────────────────┘ companies aren't allowed to hire artists because they're busy making things and would reduce their focus levels graphics technicians don't design the media, they just implement. gross, where's the creativity->? oh, here in the boardroom, great -.- everyone gets a boardroom... jeez, how many companies do we need? ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────┘ --- #2 fediverse/3006 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────── @user-246 20 years is long enough that the specifics aren't important but short enough to understand context and how different types of actors might behave ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────┘ --- #3 fediverse/4603 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────────────── @user-1713 Don’t be fooled. Casting doubt about rigorous peer reviewed science doesn’t mean you are just “asking questions,” it means you are a conspiracy theorist. or it means you're so remarkably ignorant that you shouldn't even be in the room where people are talking about this. Unless your questions are very basic. "can someone explain to me what XYZ term means?" or "how long has this particular application method been in common use?" that kind of thing. Even still, either do some basic research or relinquish your decision making power until you understand. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────┘ --- #4 fediverse/3351 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────── privacy doesn't mean anything on the internet to me because privacy on the internet doesn't mean anything to "them" gestures vaguely, maybe winks once or twice and/or presents an emphasis face ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────┘ --- #5 fediverse/5271 --- ═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════────────────── the true calling of an actor is to perform whatever the spirit wills you to be. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────┘ --- #6 fediverse/1286 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── the fact that business types don't listen to the engineers and their "ethics" means they shouldn't be in charge of them. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────┘ --- #7 fediverse/308 --- ════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────────── when tech people are hurt by technology they say "how can I fix this? what do I need to install? what configuration should I use? is this company ethical, or are they going to hurt me in the future? could I make something that fixes this myself?" when non-tech people are hurt by technology they say "okay" because they don't have the bandwidth to figure it out. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────────────────────┘ --- #8 fediverse/4817 --- ═══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════──────────────────── ┌────────────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: politics-mentioned │ └────────────────────────────┘ @user-1074 my family includes my friends.
