People used to do this at tech conferences, but using Twitter. Someone would start a hashtag and people would jump in. There was always a fun side-channel going with people commenting on what was being presented on the main stage.

Fun times, before… sigh

ARM is a UK-based company. If they hadn’t dropped out of EU, it’s possible they would have settled on an ARM-based supercomputer design.

Traditionally, there have been a few classes of companies in the U.S: C Corp, S Corp, LLC (Limited Liability Company) aka partnerships, and Closed. Most companies in the U.S. are organized as one of these, with their responsibility toward shareholders, who want to see their money grow.

If you wanted to work for a company that didn’t necessarily have infinite growth as its mission, the only option was to find a Non-Profit, but they may not have the kind of funding to spend on legal visas.

In the last few years, two other types of companies have emerged. They’re similar, but legally different: B-corp (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/B_Corporation_(certification)), and PBC or Public Benefit Corporation (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benefit_corporation).

These can be for-profit, but have to have a stated mission in their charter to provide a benefit of some sort to the public.

The links above point at some examples, but you may want to do your own research. Those companies may have the resources to pick up your visa, and may better align with the values you’re looking for.

Ideally, and when able, your best bet would be to start your own business and set it up just the way you want.

Can’t someone come up with a browser that just randomly lies when asked about the characteristics that could be used for fingerprinting?

Except for trusted, whitelisted sites.

That seems like it would be a pretty good privacy enhancer.

You all realize pretty soon no human is going to update an existing code-base?

Who wants to spend their time understanding 10 year old legacy code? They’ll just feed it into an AI and tell it to add or fix a feature, then generate tests, and file a PR.

If it ends up having an airplane do a loop on take-off or sending your paycheck to Antarctica 🤷🏻‍♂️
