    Building a tech industry that's better for its workers and customers through co-operation, democracy and worker ownership.

    CoTech Β« Cooperative Technologists (www.coops.tech)

    While most of their member co-op's are based in the UK, they were occasionally looking for people who are based in the EU, as they would qualify under the residency requirements for tendering for local government contracts. πŸ˜„

    Also, take a look at the work done by @coopcloud πŸ˜„

  • The NHS is (and has been for such a long time) suffering budgetary constraints, but now we know where a slice of that shortfall is going: In two years private health providers made Β£1.6bn in profits from their work in the NHS.

    Every time private surgery is performed, they have an ambulance on standby to take them to an NHS hospital if things go wrong. 😐

  • Chatting with one friend who still works in The City, who said to look at the Yuan trades.

    Chatting with one friend who still works in The City, who said to look at the Yuan trades.

    There are still boats travelling through the Straits of Hormuz, with Iran's permission.

    While it's been reported that Iran is charging ~$2million per boat, what has not been widely reported is that Iran is only accepting payment in Yuan.

    Not in US dollars.

    Another way is asking what the impact will be on the company's liability insurance, as insurance companies are refusing to cover anything with AI in it. πŸ˜„

    Push the legal team to get a definite opinion, and refuse to go forward, until someone sign's off on that, accepting the responsibility.

    Make sure that the people making these decisions are held fully accountable for their decisions. πŸ˜„

    More like a bullet dodged. πŸ™‚

    If the management are going to that susceptible to sales pitches and technology trends, then you 'd be wasting most of your time doing project that lead nowhere, and will be changed on a whim.

    That's a miserable way to earn a living... πŸ˜„

    Speaking from personal experience. πŸ™‚
