08:05 schestowitz; [SUEPO] ZERO Adjustment of your childcare and education reimbursement ceilings

08:05 schestowitz; Dear SUEPO members,

08:05 schestowitz; Dear colleagues,

08:05 schestowitz; Since the Education and Childcare Reform, the ceilings for the childcare and education facilities, as well as indirect costs are subject to a yearly adjustment according to the calculation for salary adjustment procedure.

08:05 schestowitz; SUEPO therefore prepared a template against CA/D 16/21, the decision taken by the Administrative Council to also apply the zero adjustment to the ceilings defined by the childcare and education allowance reform.

08:05 schestowitz; Basically, all parents of children attending an education or childcare facility are already affected (children attending a crche) or will be affected (children/dependents attending schools/universities/etc.) this year.

08:05 schestowitz; SUEPO therefore calls upon all parents in the situations described above to save their rights and to file a Request for Review.

08:05 schestowitz; 1) Please fill in the template Template RfR - Adjustment - Young child and education allowances

08:05 schestowitz; 2) Find here the Instructions and the compendium annexes.

08:05 schestowitz; In attachment you will find the template together with the instructions on how to file your RfR and the compendium annexes to be attached to the request. Please remember to meet your specific deadline i.e. within 3 months of the negative decision:

08:05 schestowitz; i) In case the childcare or education facility has announced an increase in the costs as of January 2022, your deadline is 3 months after your January salary pay slip

08:05 schestowitz; ii) In case you have not yet been informed about an increase of costs of the childcare or education facility, your deadline is 3 months after the decision has been taken, thus you should send the RfR until 15 March 2022.

17:14 schestowitz; [19:10] <source> But yeah the original plan for Copilot sounded like a code auditing tool

17:14 schestowitz; [19:10] <source> [19:10] <source> Alex actually got mad whenever I said that's what it sounded like

17:14 schestowitz; [19:11] <schestowitz> it used openAI iirc

17:14 schestowitz; [19:11] <schestowitz> it's a GPL violation tool

17:15 schestowitz; [19:11] <schestowitz> I can send you link from FSF's site

17:15 schestowitz; [19:11] <source> Then I kind of looked into it and github had an audit tool already

17:15 schestowitz; [19:11] <schestowitz> it's encouraging developers to NOT respect software licences

17:15 schestowitz; [19:11] <schestowitz> using legal grey areas

17:15 schestowitz; [19:11] <source> Personally I've never used one because I've never worked on anything that important

17:15 schestowitz; [19:12] <source> Yeah so I know someone that works at intel[19:12]

17:15 schestowitz; <schestowitz> http://techrights.org/wiki/index.php/Delete_Github

http://techrights.org/wiki/Intel_leaks

17:15 -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-techrights.org | Intel leaks - Techrights

17:15 schestowitz; [19:12] <source> They had a big issue with a chip that they had developed for some government thing

17:15 schestowitz; [19:12] <schestowitz> Intel is floundering

17:15 schestowitz; [19:12] <schestowitz> and they sold out to GitHub

17:15 schestowitz; [19:12] <source> Oh yeah this project sounded like a shit fire

17:15 schestowitz; [19:13] <schestowitz> they used to have their own git forge

17:15 schestowitz; [19:13] <schestowitz> techrights uses a 92-core intel processor developers without the back doors, for military use

17:15 schestowitz; [19:13] <schestowitz> *developed

17:15 schestowitz; [19:13] <source> Yeah, so this project was acquired and they had to strip out a bunch of stuff that had been copy pasted

17:15 schestowitz; [19:14] <schestowitz> most Intel chips since 2009 are containing back doors, it's known as Management Engine

17:15 schestowitz; [19:14] <source> Anyways Alex was saying that he and Nat had this idea

17:15 schestowitz; [19:14] <source> Honestly it was probably more Nat's idea

17:15 schestowitz; [19:15] <source> Because Alex couldn't really explain it to me in a way that made sense

17:15 schestowitz; [19:17] <source> He explain it as something that could find code based on the code you put into it and see if something similar was out there

17:15 schestowitz; [19:17] <source> He never used the words auto generate code for you

17:15 schestowitz; [19:17] <source> Which makes me think he didn't know what the fuck he was talking about

17:15 schestowitz; [19:18] <schestowitz> this is major

17:15 schestowitz; [19:18] <schestowitz> it means that Team Mono, or specifically GitHub's 'CEO' (Microsoft's stooge), came up with this agenda

17:15 schestowitz; [19:18] <schestowitz> it's worthless as a tool

17:15 schestowitz; [19:18] <schestowitz> I could go into specifics

17:15 schestowitz; [19:18] <schestowitz> but they use that to push proprietary IDE

17:15 schestowitz; [19:18] <schestowitz> Visual Studio

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <source> The original plan was to have Alex build it as a start up

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <schestowitz> and teach people not to worry about GPL compliance

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <source> And then Microsoft would require it

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <source> Which sounds a bit like fraud

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <schestowitz> that sounds illegal

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <schestowitz> passing Microsoft capital to a friend

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <source> Acquire not require

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <schestowitz> and maybe then get kickbacks off of him

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <source> Yeah but this never happened

17:15 schestowitz; [19:19] <schestowitz> even if it was contemplated

http://techrights.org/2021/03/17/epoleaks-report-march-2021-part-12/

17:16 schestowitz; [19:20] <source> Alex was not in any place mentally to do this

17:16 schestowitz; [19:20] <schestowitz> typical Microsoft modus operandi

17:16 schestowitz; [19:20] <schestowitz> based on texts, he had booze issue

17:16 schestowitz; [19:20] <schestowitz> if not other narcotics

17:16 schestowitz; [19:20] <schestowitz> but we covered this yesterday

17:16 schestowitz; [19:20] <source> Alex was in AA

17:16 schestowitz; [19:20] <schestowitz> I'm not sure I will even bring it up

17:16 schestowitz; [19:21] <schestowitz> AA as in?

17:16 schestowitz; [19:21] <schestowitz> addiction something?

17:16 schestowitz; [19:21] <source> It's an issue that I haven't really touched on because honestly I felt sorry for him

17:16 schestowitz; [19:21] <source> Alcoholics Anonymous

17:16 schestowitz; [19:21] <source> He also said that he had a pain killer addiction after a surgery

17:16 schestowitz; [19:21] <schestowitz> I see

17:16 schestowitz; [19:22] <source> AA is a cult but that's a different story

17:16 schestowitz; [19:22] <source> Alex has a history with cults

17:16 schestowitz; [19:23] <source> His parents were arrange married in hare khrisna because they were top recruiters

17:16 schestowitz; [19:25] <source> I was considering applying for a job at Gitlab and he basically bullied me out of it

17:16 schestowitz; [19:26] <schestowitz> gitlab also has its issues

17:16 schestowitz; [19:26] <schestowitz> but let's not go there :)

17:16 schestowitz; [19:27] <source> But that was a whole other issue. He didn't want me to find a new job

17:16 schestowitz; [19:27] <source> Sabotaged me

17:16 schestowitz; [19:28] <source> He was upset because job hunting takes work and my schedule would have been tied up

17:16 schestowitz; [19:28] <source> I was miserable at my job too. It was a big contributor to why I was probably vulnerable to getting into an abusive relationship

17:16 schestowitz; [19:29] <schestowitz> I see, sorry to hear that

17:16 schestowitz; [19:29] <source> He also told me my friends company was stupid

17:16 schestowitz; [19:30] <source> Which I thought was strange because from a technical perspective xxxxxxxx's company is badass

17:16 -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-SerpApi: Google Search API

17:16 schestowitz; [19:30] <source> Alex kept complaining that he didn't have any friends in xxxxxxxxx that were entrepreneurs like him

17:16 schestowitz; [19:30] <source> But he kept on trying to say that xxxxxx didn't count

17:16 schestowitz; [19:31] <source> He had this thing about only wanting to be associated with YC people[19:31]

17:16 schestowitz; <schestowitz> "entrepreneurs" is a stupid word

17:16 schestowitz; [19:31] <source> And I tried to introduce them to someone else I know that was a YC alum

17:16 schestowitz; [19:31] <schestowitz> almost buzzword

17:16 schestowitz; [19:31] <source> And then that person wasn't good enough

17:16 schestowitz; [19:31] <schestowitz> cultist and crypto-charlatan

17:16 schestowitz; [19:31] <schestowitz> bragging about virtual if not fake wealth

17:16 schestowitz; [19:32] <source> Oh God one day he had a panic attack

17:16 schestowitz; [19:32] <source> Because dropbox went from $24 to $18 in a day

17:16 schestowitz; [19:32] <source> He hadn't sold any of his shares

17:16 schestowitz; [19:34] <source> When he introduced himself originally he said his company was Dropbox paper

17:17 schestowitz; [19:34] <source> From what I understand dropbox open sourced Hackpad and rewrote from the ground up

17:17 schestowitz; [19:34] <schestowitz> Dropbox is worthless as a company

17:17 schestowitz; [19:34] <schestowitz> but it helps spy

17:43 schestowitz; You were right.

17:43 schestowitz; Code auditing tools are nothing new. Several other companies did it already, even 15 years earlier.

17:43 schestowitz; So he called you name for telling him facts he preferred not to hear.

17:43 schestowitz; As a side note, Miguel de Icaza openly complained about one such product almost 10 years ago. He said it was crap. I still remember that.
