  1. Alright y’all…that’s 4 convention weekends down in a row, and another 18 to go before Thanksgiving weekend. On to my next!

    I’ll be at #AnthroWeekendUtah from July 30th - August 2nd! Join me for fuzziness, fun facts, and FRUIT RIOT (that’s right, there’s a PANEL for it now)!

    Hope to see you @ #AWU!

  2. A month ago I made some 'union merit badges' that I've now collected into a blog post where you can see some higher res images and an explanation of what each one means: stackofgoats.studio/blog/union

  3. Made some union merit badges! Intend to give these stickers out for completing union related activities like doing one on ones, flyering, signing petitions, etc!

  5. The title is, of course, clickbait, but this video from More Perfect Union is a great, balanced, and researched take on the supposed benefits to communities of building datacenters.

  7. @DIEZEIT 1/2 Ich bin ja ehrlich gesagt wirklich kein Fanboy der #Grünen mehr. Mich hat der 10-Punkte-Plan von #Habeck, der eben auch von der #AfD stammen könnte, geheilt. Dazu kommt in #aWü natürlich der Umstand, dass die Grünen bei #Faschisten, Software kaufen, um den Ausbau des #Überwachungsstaats voranzutreiben,

  9. Democracy Now did a great segment with Google workers who were arrested during sit-ins against Project Nimbus about Project Nimbus, the No Tech for Apartheid movement, and their motivations and experiences. Definitely worth checking out if you want to learn more: youtube.com/watch?v=rz8Y2NSPpX

  10. Google's illegal retaliation continues with a mass firing of over two dozen workers involved in the #NoTechForApartheid movement, including those with no direct involvements in yesterday's action. This is why we need #unions in tech, people.

  11. I don't have enough characters here to express my frustration and sadness at Google's decision to have nine of their own employees arrested for a peaceful protest yesterday, so I wrote more about it on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/posts/timwilde_no

    Google, I'm so sad, angry, and disappointed at you. This is not the company I signed up for. I'm spending today in serious contemplation of my next steps and path forward.

  12. @lauren @dangoodin #AWU has won NLRB elections for some bargaining units, but we still have a long way to go to cover all ~200k employees and TVCs. We even got Google recognized as a joint employer for a couple of the units, although Google's likely to drag that through as many courts as they can: theverge.com/2024/1/4/24026025

  13. Tomorrow is #awu day!!! Last year was a great time so I'm excited to see what this year is like

  14. In a twist, my #AWU return window closed on the 20th and I’m still using it. I have not run with my Garmin in almost a week. I plan on writing some in depth posts explaining what sold me. #running

  15. Sleep tracking on the AWU is phenomenal and my takeaway is that the Garmin is crap in this area. I will just be removing it from my dashboard in Garmin Connect until they ever get it right. #AWU #running #garmin

  16. Other reasons...
    - I have to use multiple apps to visualize data. There is not one dashboard to aggregate all data.
    - 3rd party apps sometimes report the data it reads from Apple Health in a different way which can lead to skewed interpretation of the data.
    - I cannot use 3rd party apps to track running and also get V02max - that's only calculated with the stock app.
    - I cannot easily have two way sync with TrainingPeaks.
    - It adds no value to my life.

  17. I decided that I am probably going to return the #AWU. Yes, it's more accurate in a lot of ways than the Garmin Fenix 7x but, I have it dumbed down to the basic features removing most of the smart watch components and will not use a lot of features because I do not need the added stress. For what I do, the Fenix does fine and that's run tracking. #AWU #running

  18. I do prefer how Garmin presents the data. I have to jump between multiple apps with apple. Today I had to use the stock workout app in order to try and see what AWU gets for VO2 max. It will not calculate with any third party apps like WorkOutDoors. This might end up being the deal breaker for me even though the AWU seems more accurate.

  19. 11 mile run this morning. It still shocks me how close the metrics are between the AWU without a heart rate strap and the Garmin Fenix 7x paired with the HRM pro. The Garmin ended up finishing almost one tenth ahead of the AWU. I compared maps and I think it’s the way Garmin handles the tangents. It’s a guess. Garmin is not as smooth.

  20. A couple of nights comparing sleep tracking between the AWU and Garmin Fenix 7x solar. Vastly different! The Garmin always has awake times wrong and REM is usually laughable. Going by how I feel and when I know I was awake last night the AWU is way more accurate. The first night the Garmin quit tracking due to tattoos. Hrm. #awu #running

  21. I did an easy 30 min run this morning using both devices. Garmin paired with the HRM-pro. AWU using just optical. The metrics were almost identical. Elevation a little diff but I think I have 3D enabled on Garmin. I have an 11 miler on Sunday so that will be a better test. I'm damn shocked & impressed. #AWU #running

  22. Strike one! The AWU does not like tattoos and keeps asking for a passcode. Had to switch wrists. Garmin doesn’t have that issue. #awu #running

  23. "Since the formation of the Alphabet Workers Union, the members have won back pay for Google contract workers, reinstated pandemic back pay for Datacenter workers, and secured additional stipends for Google BOLD interns. As of March 2023, the Alphabet Workers Union has more than 1,200 members."
