"We must build the unity necessary to fight for and win each other’s demands. When our fellow tech industry workers call on us for help, we must be ready to listen and respond. An injury to one is an injury to all." #TechSolidarity

👏 From two #TaxAmazon activists-@kernelsamders, a Google tech worker + @mattcaucus, #Amazon cargo handler:

My op-ed with @kernelsamders for @ModelViewMedia:
"We must build the unity necessary to fight for and win each other’s demands...This is what it means to be coworkers – an injury to one is an injury to all."

"people want a 'COVID App' so that when the lockdown gets lifted... the deaths that will follow are not the consequence of a political decision that someone has to take responsibility for, but a 'bug' that needs 'patches'”. - @tante for @ModelViewMedia

No one should be sent home without pay while the billionaire they work for lines his own pocket. Yet while @Tesla CEO @elonmusk has made over $8.5 billion this year, he's refused to pay over 260 janitors and shuttle drivers during the COVID-19 shutdown. #PayYourWorkersElon

My response to Marc Andreessen's post that we just need to "build" in the time of COVID-19: People are dying, Marc. Stick your flying cars up your ass.

I haven't seen the Hippocratic License appear much, but it's an interesting twist on the evolution of open source. I remember some claims a while back that tech hasn't had it's "Manhattan project" moment yet. buff.ly/2VDsi6p

💯 “People often talk about open source as a commons, but if you go back and read Elinor Ostrom’s studies on pre-digital practices of commoning around the world, you’ll find that there are some important things missing...”
