It's Shitty Saturday, what are we doing?

@Gina @belastingdienst let AI reason the favorable outcome?

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@Mndell @belastingdienst Ah we have great experience with letting algorithms assess people's taxes in the Netherlands.

Dutch scandal serves as a warning for Europe over risks of using algorithms

The Dutch tax authority ruined thousands of lives after using an algorithm to spot suspected benefits fraud — and critics say there is little stopping it from happening again.

@Gina it's the same in Germany. When using the official website provided by the state, for the first few years I had to google even after reading every single of their "help" texts. No wonder there are third-party software providers out there who you can pay to essentially give you better help texts, I bet it's easy money for them

Different country, same shit (D). Complexity shall pretend social equality. It is not. They don’t understand that they’ve stopped thinking half way.

@schoentoon Welp, I'm about to install Proxmox and then a few K8 clusters.

@daniel_bohrer @Gina

This 110%. [nods vigourously in agreement]

No wonder accountants make out like bandits. The older I get, the more I realise that life is far too short to deal with such insane pedantic minutia, and I find it money very well-spent. (I have a PhD and also am too dumb for this stuff.)

@bjoreman you're going to love the episode where I take a cabinet front off of its hinges and can't get it back on.
