“Amazon has told its white collar employees that their jobs are at risk from artificial intelligence in the next few years, marking a rare explicit warning from a senior tech executive that AI will lead to lay-offs.”

“#AndyJassy, the ecommerce giant’s chief executive, told employees in a memo on Tuesday that the company was deploying #AI across its #operations, particularly in its #logistics network, to help lower costs. He said the company wants to increase its use of AI, which would mean #JobLosses.”

“We will need *fewer people* doing some of the jobs that are being done today, and more people doing *other types of jobs*,” Jassy said. “It’s hard to know exactly where this nets out over time, but in the next few years, we expect that this will #reduce our total #CorporateWorkforce.”

From 2022, the introduction of #ChatGPT and #GenerativeAI has been building up within the corporate mindset. So too has the #ZeroWorkHours for White collar workers.

I've upgraded the 2015 Macbook Air I use for managing synths that don't like Linux. to Sonoma using OpenCore. There's a little bit of reduced performance from Monterey but it's impressive that it can be done almost transparently, so it should be good for a bit longer. #MacOS #OpenCore #reduce #reuse #recycle

A reminder. Recycling should be what we do when we’ve tried all these other options. #ClimateAction #Reduce #ReUse #Recycle #Climate

8 evidence-backed ways to reduce your cancer risk

Persistent fatigue, unusual lumps or swelling, and skin changes like dark spots or yellowing can be early signs of serious health issues. A lingering cough, trouble breathing, difficulty swallowing, or chronic indigestion may indicate internal problems. Changes in bowel or bladder habits should also not be ignored, as they could signal underlying diseases, including cancer. #evidencebacked #ways #reduce #cancer #risk

I am so proud of my friend Michael Moore who founded and has driven this incredible Maker Space that isn't just bringing all sorts of cool capabilities and education to #PortAlberni but also is an amazing innovator in plastic re-use!

His goal has always been to take as much plastic as he can and repurpose/remold it into useful things... and well.. that's exactly what he's doing!

GO MIKE!

It's too bad I don't have an older box, but if I remember well, there was not a 2 and a quarter inch of empty space on one end ( #shrinkflation ? ) ...
And it's definitely not because the content settled like in cereal boxes !
#reduce would be a great idea. I don't care if it's gonna be #recycled, #lessismore, reduce at the source ...
So come on, redesign the box, even if the content has not been recently reduced !

You know what would be cool? A leave one - take one box for cloth shopping bags near the register in shops. Forgot your bag at home, or bought more or more bulky things than you expected? Grab a bag instead of buying a paper bag that is nominally reusable, but usually isn't re-used.
Have too many cloth shopping bags at home? Wash them and leave a few at the box for someone else...

Why a new #zero-carbon #UK #steel plant offers hope and a headache | Steel industry | The Guardian

The problem with making steel using a #BlastFurnace is that it requires very high temperatures and #CokingCoal to #reduce the #Oxygen content as it is made to bond to #Carbon instead. This produces #CarbonMonoxide and then #CarbonDioxide.

Welp, my journey had an abrupt end: the refurbed mi mix turned out to be faulty. While I am in the process of returning, I am rethinking my rushed decision to give up on the mi 11T I have, that works. I instead will do more research to have a proper #degoogled phone when the one I have no longer works. #reduce, #REUSE, #recycle
I still have a long journey ahead. You are encouraged to start a conversation about your experience, advice or memes hehe
