You seem to be ignoring where profits are going - shareholders have, for decades, taken far more than their fair share of things and wages absolutely can go up without driving companies out of business it's just that one group has to take less and that's the shareholders. Employers will continue to do anything in their power to keep shareholders happy over employees and that absolutely includes bringing in cheaper, migrant labor. It's not a labor shortage, it's a wage shortage and investing in productivity doesn't reduce jobs, it creates new ones - often that require a different skill set than the one it replaced and that's one reason we are failing, we aren't helping people acquire new skills en mass

I wouldn't hold my breath - Boulder is big on telegraphing very liberal policies but they always fall apart due to NIMBYs. Home prices in Boulder aren't even driven by corporate RE investment, it's just expensive as fuck in general with a ton of tech companies having campuses there, the university, and well-to-do people from the Bay Area that have been flowing there for decades

Got a smart e-nail created using ESPHome and am now working on a touchscreen version. It's proving to be harder than expected just due to LVGL and ESPHome not playing super nice with one another and an unsupported screen making things a bit more difficult but that's all I have to figure out, everything else is working as expected

To each their own, I really don't like Miro as is just graphical, no way to export my data in a machine readable format. In LucidChart I could create an ERD diagram or BPMN chart and get it in say XML in a format that I could actually script on top of to help with development. As for direct Figma competitors, I've really enjoyed self-hosting PenPot

Seems FigJam is somewhat popular in the space? It's an Adobe product now since they acquired Figma. There's also Miro and LucidChart that are popular

For those who have experience with this and KiCAD, how do they compare?

I feel "protecting" them by walking on eggshells around things related to their culture is just a continuation of that fetishization(sp?) when we should all just be sharing and celebrating one another's culture. Obviously don't mock, but anything that is good natured as this event seems to be is exactly what humans should be doing

So excited about the progress they are making! I can't wait to give COSMIC a spin when it's ready

I hope that's the direction we head that way artists are appropriately compensated for their work. We'll see entire libraries/brokers pop up that grant LLM makers access to work for a fee.

It's less lifting and more just slightly leaning forward, definitely still sitting. I guess if one were larger that approach wouldn't work? Not sure

All Republicans have to do is propose policies that actually appeal to the masses and they too can win democratically rather than through gerrymandering and electoral shenanigans
