True. Google has only had ONE successful product ever.

#feilnerism: "Scalability is causing more problems than it solves. KISS rules. #DigitalSobriety #DoINeedThis? And it's equivalent to #growth in economy."

#roteconomy #enshitification @pluralistic and @edzitron really worth listening, despite all the ads. 😄

“Quiet cracking” is a funny way of saying “over-exploited”.

Employers as a whole are now exploiting and extracting (i.e. stealing) so much value from labor—and demonstrating that they only want to devalue labor even more—that laborers no longer think the commercial exchange is worth their time and attention, so they disengage.

Focusing too much on laborers to help them cope or deal is a band-aid; this is a systemic breaking point, and we can’t all outrun the system. Focus on changing the system.
