Thank you!
Dear PeerTube,
Every time I want to upload a video I keep getting error messages.
Why does this keep happening?
Several of my videos haven't even been uploaded.
Please sort this out.
“Canva co-founder #MelaniePerkins wrote to staff on May 5 to unveil #Canva’s official #AIGuidelines, two months after it axed the majority of its #TechnicalWriters division and directed #engineers to complete the bulk of their #tasks using #AITools.
The COACHES (weaselword for manager) said the company had recently directed them to *formally assess* the way employees, known internally as “Canvanauts”, use AI in their six-monthly PERFORMANCE reviews. They also said the company has #automated the #writing of these #reviews.
A company spokesperson denied these claims in a lengthy statement but said Canva does “ENCOURAGE” employees to “reflect on how they’re using AI in their work” on an informal basis and said they use an internal tool that assesses performance reviews against their internal metrics after a human has written the
(No dissent tolerated)
“We’re incredibly committed to helping our team thrive in this new era of AI. We’re making significant investments in upskilling across the entire company, with a strong focus on learning and experimentation,” the Canva spokesperson said.
“Our #investmentstrategy in this space aren’t about #replacing our TEAM’s #judgement, #creativity, or #craft, but scaling them so we can spend more time on the projects that move us closer to our mission and make a difference for our community,”
(Emphasis note on TEAM, not individuals)
For a consumer facing software company, the last place I’d be removing human input would be where the technology touches customers. The usability, instructions, reliability through Engineering, Art and crafting of a product.
Where do you cut? Accounting, excessive management (top & bottom) and back office. This is the difference between an accounting/MBA and an Engineering / consumer focused company.
No wonder the technical staff are looking at #Unions. JobBot unleashed by the *Boss Class* to replace technical staff.

Starlink at the White House

" #Starlink, a satellite #internet provider owned by #SpaceX, has been installed on the #WhiteHouse campus...
bizarre arrangement that provides no clear #technical benefit, as internet speeds from Starlink’s satellites are easily outclassed by its terrestrial competitors. Jake Williams, a #cybersecurity expert... “It introduces another attack point,” Williams said. “But why introduce that risk?”
@VikingChieftain I am not a #programmer, but a #sysadmin who needs, appreciates, and even enjoys #technical #writing.
I write as if the person on the other end is unfamiliar with the technology at hand. When finished reading, not only do they understand the concepts, they can complete the task successfully the first time.

Something I wrote in the W3C Authentic Web Mini Workshop’s Zoom chat:
Another implicit assumption (flaw) that is often a part of "purely technical solutions" is the neglect or ignorance (innocent naïveté) of existing technical solutions.
A technical proposal should not be praised for what it claims to solve.
A technical proposal must be evaluated by what marginal difference or advantage does it provide over existing technologies.
Any technical proposal that ignores prior technologies is itself doomed to be ignored by the next technical proposal.
In addition to the slide presentations (links to come) in the mini workshop and Zoom verbal discussion which was minuted (link to come), there was a lot of very interesting discussion in the Zoom chat, which was not minuted. Sometimes such quick back & forth can help inspire summarizing of points which one had not previously written down.
I was encouraged by a fellow workshop participant to blog this one so here it is!
