These local city charter amendments all seem pretty toothless.
"…expanded powers including making recommendations to the Mayor…"

The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people.
I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate.
I make my case here.

Dear fedi I'm livid. An acquaintance of mine almost finished college and after doing an *unpaid* six months internship was offered a follow-up contract for less than 500€ a month. If you wonder why European young people are mad that's pretty much why.
I'll be doing anything in my power to make sure he'll never work there so if you have an opening or internship for a young person starting his career let me know.
He'll finish the equivalent of a bachelor in computer science in May next year, has done some six months of hands-on work in security and is one hell of a worker. I can personally vouch for him. He's based in Italy and can do both in-person and remote work, and might be able to relocate to the NL and possibly the UK if need be.
Boosts appreciated.

i want to work on my game because i found a new simple approach for some really bad code https://exodrifter.space/blog/20261023185459 but instead i am being subjected to AI music by a relative who unironically thinks it is great and awesome and i am taking so much mental damage rn
How did you decide on that simple approach for the problematic code?

@arstechnica Someone should let the Boston Dynamics guys know that they were never a "robotics company." They''ve always been a weapons manufacturer.
Microsoft offers 60,000 employees a voluntary exit 😱 The AI affecting is real in IT sector. This is company’s efforts to cut costs amid AI adoption, per Bloomberg. Personnel on select teams in the US, Canada, India, and the UK at a vice president level and below will be eligible. This reflects ~27% of Microsoft's total workforce https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2026/10/26/introducing-a-voluntary-exit-offer/
@nixCraft Holy crap. This is not gonna go well for anyone.

Unfortunately I'm at that point in the month where bills are more than I can handle. Mostly medical copays and veterinarian bills accumulated from shortfalls of living on Social Security 8 years, which is hard. $500 would get me out of danger, $2000 would whittle it down to where I can pay the rest.
Any amount helps - Mvto! (Thanks!)

Democracy is a serious matter. There is an election in the US, and it is important that voters see a serious political debate about the real topics that influence their future.
But on The Dead Bird, its owner Elon Musk is constantly spreading false narratives to his 252 million followers.
If your politician is still on The Dead Bird, ask why they are helping move voters onto the platform of disinformation.
