DEI isn’t intended to be “colorblind”, it explicitly suggests that employers give consideration to applicants from disparaged demographics, who may have otherwise been ignored during the application process. It doesn’t, however, imply hiring quotas; there is no such thing as “a DEI hire”.

Many people seem to confuse DEI for Affirmative Action, as evidenced above. This article explains the differences pretty succinctly: https://natlawreview.com/article/dei-diversity-equity-and-inclusion-v-affirmative-action-they-are-not-same

While Affirmative Action is often seen as a legal and policy-driven approach, DEI is more about cultural transformation and ongoing efforts to create a supportive and inclusive workplace. Both are crucial for building a fair and equitable society, but they operate on different levels and address different aspects of inequality. DEI initiatives, though can impact hiring, focus on the workplace and people in it. The intent is to embrace the collective, minimize bias and treat others in a respectful and understanding manner.

Rocks are woke now.

Neither of those are DEI.

I feel like you may not understand what DEI actually is. What, precisely, do you think a “DEI hire” is?

So Roblox is the only of those companies that can handle proper region failover if us-east-1 shits the bed?

Either that, or the reports stopped coming in since it’s a school day.

Why?

A lot of the affected services seem to be partially functional right now. It looks like the AWS network that went offline is one managing real-time analytics data, mostly.

Whatever you do, you shouldn’t accidentally spill saltwater on it. That could destroy a very expensive piece of spying equipment, and would be a terrible, tragic accident that could interfere with the advance of nazism.

Good idea! How do I get past the boarded-up doors, though?

Remember: ICE are not people.

No shit, Big Tech is going to kowtow to whoever is in charge.

Remove Apple’s restrictions from the equation and just make it a PWA. This isn’t the sort of app that needs to run natively on your device, anyway.

Unless you like seminars about GNU, there’s not really a lot of original media on the Fediverse that the average person would be interested in.

The Fediverse is a niche within a niche.

That’s an example of it specifically not working.

You said it on live TV, jackass. We all saw and heard you.

These nazis are desperate to share Kirk’s fate.

As they should, honestly. While those bots can be used to track down and identify predators, they have also been used for harassing and doxxing innocent users. There’s little to no security oversight with those bots.

I agree! I think the Fediverse needs more “normies” to be present around here. Not just for the sake of having more numbers and being a more popular platform, but we need difference of opinion, and it needs to be embraced much better than it currently is.

When everybody in a community agrees on 99% of things, they tend to become rather tight-knit. But whenever that 1% comes up which goes against the flow, the reactions around here tend to be quick and harsh, and the 99% of other things you previously agreed with that person on get thrown out the window all because they don’t share the same opinion about Linux as you, or something.

It’s not a healthy pattern for a growing community.

I notice that a lot here on Lemmy, and I think that’s because most of us here have at least an above-average understanding of current technologies, and tend to forget that we’re a very small minority of people. So when above-average understandings are commonplace in your online bubble, your view of what an “average” understanding is can become skewed.

It seems to have at least inspired a few.

General intelligence is substrate dependent, meaning that it’s inherently tied to biological wetware and cannot be replicated in silicon.

We’re already growing meat in labs. I honestly don’t think lab-grown brains are as far off as people are expecting.
