I mean the hope is that social good drives capital. It doesn’t, but still.

Garbagio@lemmy.zipto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•should I apologize to this friendly manager I had an argument with?2·2 hours agoAgreed. Look, I’m all for the dictatorship of the proletariat; that being said, so many fellow leftists think class analysis is some moral framework rather than a systemic analysis of socioeconomic inequities. It’s not. Some prole working their job to survive only to last long enough or perform good enough to get promoted doesn’t make them a villain. Yes, you still have jobs, promotions, and managers under socialism. You just also get a say in those systems.
xcept cops, fuck cops.

Its just such a stupid argument on its face. We wouldn’t argue that tribalism gave us agriculture, or that somehow feudalism is good because of windmills. As a society we have ideas, we direct resources to those ideas, and then we reap the benefits of those ideas. Capitalism is simply a more effective driver of resources than the systems before. But mathematically driven aristocracy is still aristocracy.

Garbagio@lemmy.zipto Technology@lemmy.world•Proton Mail Suspended Journalist Accounts at Request of Cybersecurity AgencyEnglish3·14 days agoI appreciate the question; personally, though, I think tuta is threadbare enough that giving in would honestly be a deathknell. Proton drops in privacy, they can still advertise as “better than google,” and has the userbase to survive any drop in users. If tuta follows suit, at what point are they stuck as just worse proton?

Just adding some clarity for anyone who comes by. Just like any other community, you have Rust, Rust devs, the Rust dev community, the Rust dev community social media pages, and then the public perception of those social media pages, typically driven by clickbait “articles” about errant Reddit posts. There was a fair bit of hype at one point for Rust, and given its similar applications as C++, hype around “converting” people. This became a meme a decade ago, which like all memes just became tired thought-terminating slop. Which is how it ended up with Phoronix, but still.
