6·24 days ago100k/year in San Francisco is definitely low income.
Official government figures using an exemplary family of four (two adults two children) already classified a household income of $117,400 as low income back in 2018. By 2025, that threshold has risen to $159,000.

1·1 month agoChinese, and to a lesser extent Asian Big Tech is what American Big Tech dreams and aspires to.
Everything is intimately linked to the super app platforms WeChat/Alipay (China) or LINE/Kakao Talk (Japan and Korea). Nearly everything online is designed primarily with WeChat/Alipay plugins/mini apps as the primary entry point and it is not uncommon both many services/pages to simply not exist outside of these super app ecosystems.
The apps are super invasive with privacy and require identity documents and banking details to even function. To some extent, it has resulted in convenience for the locals, though tbh this is mostly just replicating the convenience of western infrastructure like payment systems.
Where it gets messy is dealing with foreigners. China is particular has an incredibly messy system of regulations, mostly to curb money laundering and capital controls, that interact in very unforeseen ways.
Foreigners must link their identity documents and a payment method. Many vendors (either due to laziness or laws) cannot deal with foreigners at all. Additionally, due to capital controls, foreign payment methods cannot transfer or receive money. Many smaller vendors only accept payment via personal transfers, so you can easily end up being unable to pay, or split bills with locals. The inability to receive money also means you can’t receive refunds.
It gets way worse when interacting with HK/Macau, which operate their own, distinct parallel WeChat/Alipay systems. So, not only do you need to set up and maintain separate accounts for these, doing so may still be of limited use due to capital controls. A common trip around the Pearl Delta region covering Shenzhen, HK, and Macau unironically requires planning out a convoluted chart of which specific systems and accounts you need to use.

12·3 months agoThe industrial revolution began in Britain around 1760, but living standards for most people did not meaningfully improve until the late 19th century, they even fell in the first few decades.
That’s over an entire century, or at least four to five generations for meaningful improvement.

2·3 months agoSadly from personal experience, no, the general public does not know that coal power plants work by burning coal to boil water, and are horrified at how trashy the concept is.
High-key a great way to persuade them to support renewables. Associate coal with the image of people in underdeveloped countries burning fossil fuels in their own homes to exploit their own preconceived biases.

Technology@lemmy.world•GitHub just switched Copilot to metered billing, and developers are watching months of credits vanish in a single dayEnglish
1·4 months agoIt was too good to be true. Microsoft had to implement additional 5 hour and week usage limits to cope with demand.
The problem was, for the entire history of copilot, there was literally no way to even check these usage limits. All usage counted towards these limits, even those with a 0x multiplier that didn’t consume premium requests.
It was so bad that many people couldn’t even use the premium requests they paid for the month. The only around it was to switch to auto model routing, which would tend to route to lower quality models.

Technology@lemmy.world•GitHub just switched Copilot to metered billing, and developers are watching months of credits vanish in a single dayEnglish
1·4 months agoCopilot was uniquely awful at this, because up to until literally days before the switch to usage based billing there was no way for people to track token usage, despite repeated calls from the community.
Microsoft only added a billing “projection” feature on the admin page that was meant to download a spreadsheet (which straight up didn’t work for most people) less than a week before the new billing structure.
Did Adam eat Eve’s ass? Think about it. From the moment they were created to just before Eve ate the Forbidden Fruit, they were exploring the Garden of Eve, as well as trying to understand each other. Was the time in-between a matter of days, or weeks? We do not know because we were not there. Despite Genesis being the official story, this Old Testament book was created for human understanding, thus we don’t actually know. Therefore, Adam had plenty of time to experiment, despite not knowing what he was doing. One afternoon, Adam could’ve placed his hands on Eve’s ass and decided, “Hm, this feels nice, I wonder what it tastes like?” Please keep in mind that the good Lord said they could eat ANYTHING in the Garden, except the Apple of Eden. With this fact in consideration, Adam could have proceeded to eat Eve’s ass without repercussions, with God looking on thinking: “Well, they aren’t eating the Apple, so…” Lucky bastard
