Someone pointed out we (tech workers) had a lot of leverage in 2020 and 2021, but we squandered it. They were not wrong.

Perhaps now, while there is still time, we should make one last push for a union?

Looking at what is happening to software developers, I think if we aren't careful, that'll be the fate of many of us soon.

I am a senior pen tester. I've done one assessment in the last six months because the slop machine is doing them now.

While I've switched to threat modeling and other things, I'm taking a huge gamble hoping my company won't just decide to offload my position to the harness.

I've been in a union before, and I know they aren't perfect, but we've got nothing right now!

Thoughts and prayers? That does not feel like a winning strategy.

Unions could fight against slop machines, and give us the means of pushing back.

But do we have the will to do it?
