I’m a software developer and I fucking hate coding with AI.
In the beginning I was curious, even excited, but reality soon caught up.
Unnecessarily complex, bloated code (at best)
Wrong SQL statements
Code that won’t compile
Insecure code
And for haven’s sake, never let it near legacy code, it will fuck up everything.
Ok, let’s embrace visionary thinking and work on oligarchs going extinct.
Yes, I’m fear stricken by the Costco membership.
What do I own today? I live in a rented flat, my car is leased, even the movies I watch are “rented”.
Affordability is in crisis ALTHOUGH WE DON’T OWN ANYTHING.
So tell me more about how not owning anything will be the solution.
I don’t get it, where’s the deliciousness that you see?
Maybe everything tastes delicious, but it certainly does not look delicious.
fascism wasn’t defeated, Nazi Germany was defeated. Huge difference. Also it’s not a single action or country that defeated Nazi Germany, a lot of things contributed.
In the menu of their website I can see links to their accounts in Instagram, LinkedIn and Facebook profiles.
If the goal is to promote European alternatives, why not lead by example? How about adding your Mastodon, XING or Pixelfed accounts too?
Looks like the gear thingy is an upgrade which is worth 10.
That was my thought too, the article skips the most obvious cause: violence and state repression work as a deterrent. If being queer or trans risks surveillance, legal attack, or violence, people will understandably stay silent.
Other companies related to food with a similar “behaviour”:
Coca-Cola Company, PepsiCo, Unilever, Kraft Heinz, General Mills, Mars, Inc., Danone, Mondelez International, Tyson Foods, Conagra Brands
It is not a single company, it’s a system that provides an environment which enables exploitative behaviour. It’s capitalism.
Oh, you still need more information. Sure.
Baby Formula Controversy: One of the most well-known controversies involves Nestlé’s marketing of baby formula in developing countries. Critics argue that aggressive marketing tactics have led to the decline in breastfeeding, which can have serious health consequences for infants in areas with limited access to clean water and proper hygiene.
Water Privatization: Nestlé has been criticized for its water bottling practices, particularly in areas where water is scarce. The company has faced backlash for extracting water from local aquifers and selling it at a profit, often in regions where access to clean water is a significant issue.
Palm Oil Deforestation: Nestlé has been implicated in the deforestation of rainforests in countries like Indonesia and Malaysia for palm oil production. This has led to habitat destruction, loss of biodiversity, and contributions to climate change.
Child Labor: There have been allegations of child labor in the cocoa industry, which supplies Nestlé with a significant portion of its cocoa. Despite efforts to address the issue, child labor remains a persistent problem in the cocoa-growing regions of West Africa.
Labor Practices: Nestlé has faced criticism for labor practices in its supply chain, including low wages, poor working conditions, and lack of worker rights in various countries.
Environmental Impact: The company has been criticized for its environmental practices, including pollution, waste management, and the use of non-renewable resources. For example, Nestlé has been involved in controversies related to plastic waste and its impact on marine life.
Land Grabbing: Nestlé has been accused of land grabbing in various countries, where it acquires large tracts of land for agricultural purposes, often displacing local communities and small farmers.
They do have a lot of problems which are not mentioned here, but they definitely have the mentioned one as well.
I’m certain that the area you live in is absolutely wonderful and just, but that is not the case for every area. There are companies that do profit from the starvation of others, which is exactly what this post is about.
So you gushing over your area and its markets does not mean that everyone is so lucky, nor that starvation for profit does not exist.
i.e. Nestlé
Is that specific enough?
Around 2000kcal as a snack.
No thanks.

“The West?" At least in Germany, it’s a bit different.
If someone is drowning and you do nothing, you are indeed legally liable under § 323c StGB (unterlassene Hilfeleistung), unless you genuinely cannot help (e.g., you can’t swim or would endanger yourself). Simply walking away is not a safe strategy in such a situation.
And if you try to help, but the person dies or gets injured, you are not automatically liable. German law protects good-faith rescuers: you can only be held responsible if you act with gross negligence. That’s why, in Germany, we’re taught from school onward that it’s always okay to help, you won’t be punished for trying.
So, in Germany, the safest move is not to walk away, but to act reasonably and in good faith.
