more than 80 percent detect no discernible impact from AI on either employment or productivity.

US private payrolls unexpectedly declined in November, the ADP employment report showed on Wednesday.
Private employment decreased by 32,000 jobs last month
after an upwardly revised 47,000 increase in October.
Economists polled by Reuters had forecast private employment rising by 10,000 jobs after a previously reported 42,000 rebound in October.

Donald Trump this week touted his administration’s dramatic cuts to the federal workforce,
as remaining workers steeled themselves for another potential government shutdown — and more possible cuts — in the new year.
“Big news for the USA!” Trump wrote in a post on his social media site, over a graph that showed plummeting federal employment.
The post cited jobs numbers from earlier this month showing federal employment at its lowest in more than a decade,
down 271,000…

You know what’s NOT supporting troops? Starting wars as political cover for a failing president. Deploying National Guard just to terrorize people and provoke a backlash. Issuing illegal orders. •That• is not supporting troops.

Acquired a new phone for work.
Just need to get a new SIM card for it and tell my employer to update phone numbers in their system.
This way, I can have a better separation between work and private (Phone off -> I'm completely unavailable no real work-related apps on my private phone).
Sadly, "right to be unavailable" it's not (yet) in law in The Netherlands.
Luckily, my employment terms does have other clauses that effectively allow me to do this…

Good Morning #Canada
Overnight news of Trump attacking another country in a blatant attempt to seize their resources should be a wakeup call for Canada. Does anyone here think a strike on Ottawa to remove the current government couldn't happen? Could the U.S. find a stooge willing to become the interim leader? How much oil, aluminum, uranium, hydropower or other resources would be looted before Trump strokes out from too many big macs. Yesterday I would have laughed at this scenario but today it starts to be less of a fantasy.
I glossed over this article when it was first published back in November but now I'm leaning towards support of developing a volunteer force in Canada. Perhaps a 2-year voluntary military service for our youth to provide employment and training. I don't want a volunteer military force to ever be used and hopefully it becomes a deterrent. But unfortunately a serious discussion is needed.

An evening discussing falling enrollment in #STEM courses at universities across Europe, especially traditional studies like chemistry, geology and meteorology. I wonder if young people are unaware of just how interesting #STEM careers to be? Or do they have the perception it's "too hard" compared to other subjects where easier grades may be had? Or is it simply they think they can have "better"* jobs in other fields?
#AcademicChatter
*Where better might mean higher paid, more prestigious, more certain of employment, or less workload or some combination of all of these... ?

Living in a capitalist society makes me simultaneously hate and understand some things.
Back when the Sunday shopping ban was set in Poland by one of the right-wing parties (with some exceptions for petty capitalists, of course), I was outraged. Why are they forcing their religious customs on me?! But nowadays, I do realize that in a capitalist society, where employment laws are full of loopholes and employers explicitly punish employees for taking a day off, an obligatory no-business day is the only way.
On top of that, after living next to a supermarket for a few years… this is literally the only way to have a quiet day, without cars driving, and car doors slamming all the time. And of course night time deliveries, because you obviously can't lose day's business over such things.
And what I hate even more are these multi-day holidays and long weekends, where suddenly all my routine falls apart, and I can't really enjoy holidays while the train timetable is randomly punctuated. But then, I do realize that obligatory multi-day holidays are the only way for many people to simultaneously have a day off and be able to meet their families and friends.
I'm not really compatible with the world I'm living in.
