lol I just moved from the same setup to a fully Nix based homelab.

Proxmox was a good start but I don’t need it (I think)

I've been watching and seeing a lot of movement towards tangled.sh at https://tangled.org (atproto based Git)

I believe Experian currently charges $24.99 a month for those features:

Granted, I know there’s a free plan that covers everything you mentioned. I just thought it was funny that it’s over double the price you mentioned.

Some of the warehouses have organized, is there a union that represents all of these workers as a whole against leadership?

Could it be an issue of scale? The Facebook cafeteria workers were able to organize, and that was about 500 workers. Engineers are in the tens of thousands at these big tech companies and without substantial laborer support from the beginning, any potential organizer is taking a huge risk by attempting to organize.

Tech Leaders / Managers are the ones that hold the power; they are not given a free-pass to lead because they pay living wages for Engineers (that speaks to the fact that other careers should be paying better wages, not that tech workers should accept their position and not argue for better treatment).

Expressing for 2.5 years that we’re able to work from anywhere, then immediately saying “well actually come back in for a day… or 2… now come back in everyday” is a misuse of power because the workers have no say in the conversation, the only option is to express your discontent and leave.

Abuse doesn’t have to mean they’re hitting us, but it can mean a misuse of power which is one of the main points of the article.

“If working in the warehouse is really that bad, why don’t the warehouse workers unionize?”

I wouldn’t really say it’s a cloak of victimhood as much as a disillusionment of those that aren’t acknowledging they’re labor is being exploited combined with the fact that attempting to organize can be met with a loss of work.
