steventhedev@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•"Would U.S. tech workers join a union?" survey average: 67% likelyEnglish3·9 months agoAnything using Blind as a “verified industry source” is going to be skewed to the type of person who uses Blind. Beyond that, it’s low sample size, and there are suspiciously round fractions for some of the larger companies.

Usually these types of grants are never a good investment but the increased corporate tax rate alone covers a third of the grant (9b yearly taxable revenue at 2.5% over 5 years comes out to 1.125b).

Hamas attacked on October 7th. Not the other way around.
I was not expecting the drama around it. Is the issue truly a different orthography or is more like a different font/ligature issue?
EDIT: forgot the article I found on it: https://restofworld.org/2021/tulu-unicode-script/

Then they killed it for some boneheaded reason, brought back ublock and a handful of others, and recently opened it up fully again.
