  1. The Silent #Peavey Plant: How #America’s #WorkingClass #Amp Empire Was #Outsourced
    youtube.com/watch?v=3f9nxMf_HRU

    What's your take? LLM generated?

    At first, I thought it sounded like the host of another #history ch. I looked at the ch info. It's from 2015. Only one other video besides the current batch. One ~45min per day over the last 3wks. I know it's typical for netcasts to record several episodes & release before doing a big promotion so, it's possible these were all done within the last year & maybe the unseen host does not have a dayjob.

    This video is a slide show. It sounds like a few lines were spliced in after a first take.

    I would’ve thought that the Justice system, the third pillar of democratic govt, was too critical to ‘outsource’ and definately not a branch of government that ought to have any of its functions #Privatised and milked for ‘#Profits’ . It’s bad enough that the legal profession is privatised leading to wealth being a determinent in the quality of legal representation one is afforded in Court and hence better legal outcomes for those represented, but Court functions #outsourced to #PrivateEnterprises should never occur. All Court processes ought to remain fully under govt funding and appropriate publicly-owned services IMO.

    This case is an yet example of #StateTheft and #StateCapture brought to you by the ‘debunked’ #NeoLiberal order. The #Grifters are getting into all aspect of our democracy in order to feather their own nest and enslave the rest of us a la #Fascist #America and its #tRumpAdministration.

  11. Working in the #trades has never been *that* "uncool" amongst young people - even when I was a teen, and its not surprising these careers may seem more appealing as University fees rise, and remaining entry level office jobs that haven't been #outsourced disappear due to #AI .

    what the article doesn't mention is the poor pay for #apprentices, potential toxic work environments and precarity of work when starting out - at least the tools from #Draper targeted at new starters seem both affordable and decent quality

  16. Don’t let the #battlefield optics fool you - #America’s overall national #security has been harmed

    #Pentagon’s Defense Science Board bluntly stated it has no confidence any major #military #weapons system using #cyber capabilities is secure.

    Major reason for that lack of confidence is that America #outsourced our national security to #China

    For example ...

  18. I think #BOM Noarlunga rain guage must be broken. Short sharp showers with water running down the street but no measurable rain.
    They must have #outsourced 🙄

  19. IT system used by UK nuclear #submarine engineers was outsourced to #Belarusian developers

    Employees of outsourcing company WM Reply, were told not to panic thus company initially kept the fact it was #outsourced to #Belarus secret

    Part of IT software used by #British #nuclear #submarine engineers was outsourced to Belarusian developers, 1 worked from Russia

    The software was supposed to have been developed solely by #UK based people with security clearance

  20. The #Russian #cyberattack on an #outsourced provider for #London #hospitals will take many months to resolve, and has reduced them to using paper based operational procedures that date back from the time when my late father was working in the same Pathology labs for the #NHS (which was in *1975*!)

  21. Yeah, this totally tracks:

    "Though it seemed completely automated, Just Walk Out relied on more than 1,000 people in India watching and labeling videos to ensure accurate checkouts. The cashiers were simply moved off-site, and they watched you as you shopped." #outsourced #enshittified

  22. In the last five years demand for #NHS #mentalhealth provision has gone up by 50%, driven at least in part by the strains & stresses of the continuing #costoflivingcrisis & line financial insecurity.

    At the same time the #outsourced costs of private provision to make up shortfalls in NHS services is rising year on year (both absolutely & in costs per patient).

    The crisis in mental health provision is a major element behind #longterm sickness, but do the Tories have an answer?

    Of course not!

  23. Just wondering how #global #academia feels about the fact that most anglophone #publishers have #outsourced to #India. Is this just part of #internationalization... or do you see #neocolonial tendencies? What are the opportunities & challenges for individual authors & editors?

    Man, this was the story of my life in the late naughties. The rather large and stable company I work for got sold to a (Vulture Capital) group who proceeded to come in and jack things up, but not too badly. THEN the vultures almost all of MIS a couple years later in some shady dealings with a , and things *really* went to the crapper.
