Elon Musk praises Chinese workers for ‘burning the 3am oil’ – here’s what that really looks like | Elon Musk | The Guardian (Me: Tesla “slave” labor)

On Tuesday, the Tesla boss praised Chinese factory workers for pulling extreme hours while taking a shot at American workers. “There is just a lot of super talented hardworking people in China who strongly believe in manufacturing,” the billionaire said. “They won’t just be burning the midnight oil, they will be burning the 3am oil, they won’t even leave the factory type of thing, whereas in America people are trying to avoid going to work at all.”

Musk’s comment comes as Tesla’s massive Shanghai “Giga-factory” pushes its workers to the limit to meet production targets amid an ongoing pandemic lockdown there.

In April, Tesla restricted its Shanghai workers from leaving the factory under a so-called “closed-loop” system originally developed by Chinese authorities to contain Beijing Olympics participants. While locked inside, the workers were reportedly made to work 12-hour shifts, six days in a row while sleeping on factory floors. Production at the plant was forced to halt this week due to parts shortages, the company said.

Russia interferes in abortion issue as part of war on West | openDemocracy

The Kremlin is waging a war against the West on many fronts, and supporting ultra-conservative demands – no abortion and no equal treatment for LGBTIQ people – is a strategic element of it. Russia is seeking to co-opt so-called ‘culture wars’ within countries into its own, overarching, anti-Western war. A war in which Ukrainians are now dying, but also one in which women are the victims: three women have died in Poland since the 2020 law came into force, due to infections from dead foetuses that hospitals had refused to remove.

“When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.” -Marcus Aurelius

This morning, the alarm clock went off, and perhaps you pushed the snooze button or maybe not. Yet whether or not you wanted to get out of bed, you probably had to. You may not feel like going to work or wherever you need to be this morning, but why waste the day moping, zapped from the energy to make the day count with productivity from the opportunity this day presents? Too often we miss the precious chances that could elevate us to a new level simply because we just didn’t feel like getting out of bed.

So today, take a moment to reflect on the possibilities that could champion you to look better, be better and do better…

lavender lines

by Jeff Flesch, Monthly Contributor
site: Develop. Inspire. Transform, and on Twitter.

tumbleweeds thread the head of a pin

while the size of our love’s always been
reminiscent of the dreams laden in your hands

like the flavor of morning dew
know that I’ve always seen you

in my mind

a place in my heart you always reside

while lavender fills the lines
and the love within me shines

together with the sun, the moon, and the stars
awaiting the next time

we hold hands under a canopy of two hearts
forevermore entwined

Two Thought Thursday -La Casa de Papel (Money Heist), on Empathy for the Sociopaths in our Lives??

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

       My questions today are some I’ve asked before, but not gotten a response (pardon if I’m forgetting someone’s reply):

        1.)  Ought we to work toward having empathy for those, like a Sociopath such as Berlin, or a sociopath, such as Arturo, who have no empathy?   

        2.)  Why, or why not?   

           My reaction this week tries not to spoil the episode:  Cuestión de eficacia, and gives random reactions in the original Spanish, and most of the time in English, for the majority of my current readers:

cap. 12

Y el escondite del Profe ya no tiene nada de comprometidor.   

 

Of course:  the Prof. knew he’d be searched!

 
Y Ángel conduciendo muy borracho.

 

Pero dónde han metido las cosas electrónicas del Profe?
 
Oops:   Nada de relaciónes…
 
Y todavía conduciendo borracho, Angel, aunque…
