At least twice the @FCC has referred to reforming a fictional law: the National Environmental Protection Act. It's the National Environmental *Policy* Act. #FactCheck#copyedit#GOOGL, @DOGE staff cuts?
Workers at @amazon facility in Garner, NC, are voting to form a union. @FastCompany spoke with a key organizer in a sweeping survey of the Big Tech labor movement back in December.

While not campaign contributions, tax-deductible charitable donations are heavily funding US political movements. @FastCompany reports on top tools, called DAFs, used by right and left orgs like @DonorsTrust and @TidesCommunity Input from @IPS_DC https://t.co/IM7uzd8wYj
Nvidia just released a $249 computer that will change AI forever.
It's called the Jetson Nano - a tiny device that can run AI models locally.
This means AI can run without connecting to the cloud.
And it's about to spark the biggest tech battle of our time:
. @amazon@Teamsters actions take off
12/19 Strike at 7 facilities
12/11 San Bernardino CA workers join union
12/10 Atlanta drivers join
11/27 Queens NY file EEOC charge
11/15 City of Industry CA workers join

Clearly someone needs to try this at scale โ pick 1000 published scientific papers at random, ask o1 or o1-pro to look for errors, and see what turns up. I'm going to give it a shot. Anyone interested in helping out?
(Incidentally, h/t @gibbnicholas for also noticing that o1-pro can spot the math error in the black plastics paper: https://t.co/keY3qSj8Dn)
Randy Korgan of @Teamsters@amazon division told @FastCompany โWhat goes beyond that is a tremendous amount more,โ foreshadowing efforts future like the new union that formed in San Bernardino 12/11. https://t.co/ExXBIqDMJi
โWe're just kind of cogs...like any other worker.โ @marencosta tells @FastCompany how layoff-threatened tech worker labor organizers are finding common cause with other #bigtech employees. https://t.co/ExXBIqDMJi
Tech workers tell @FastCompany how they plan to deal with possible @realDonaldTrump cuts to @NLRB enforcement โA lot of people are considering things like labor stoppages and strikes as opposed to relying on labor law.โ @ClarissaRedwine@techworkersco https://t.co/ExXBIqDMJi
A year ago, @robpegoraro busted myths around "shrink" (lost and stolen products) at retail in his @worthmag article. Today, @Bloomberg caught onto that in very interesting piece (Retailers Locked Up Their Productsโand Broke Shopping in America).

I'd like to see @FastCompany - and other publications - better label opinion pieces. The tiny "POV" in gray text after the dateline was hard to even notice. Controversy over how quote was presented also didn't help.
Hey @FastCompany, it isn't ethical to fabricate quotes by taking two difference sentences from two different parts of an hour-long talk, placing them next to each other, and putting the whole shebang in a quote block that means the opposite of what I actually said.
Are there any conservative/libertarian/just not-progressive tech workers left? I suspect so, but they are hard to find. Fast Company would like to hear from you. DM's anonymous. Thanks!
