Work Reform

A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.
Our Philosophies:
- All workers must be paid a living wage for their labor.
- Income inequality is the main cause of lower living standards.
- Workers must join together and fight back for what is rightfully theirs.
- We must not be divided and conquered. Workers gain the most when they focus on unifying issues.
Our Goals
- Higher wages for underpaid workers.
- Better worker representation, including but not limited to unions.
- Better and fewer working hours.
- Stimulating a massive wave of worker organizing in the United States and beyond.
- Organizing and supporting political causes and campaigns that put workers first.

Honestly, this. This is exactly the usecase that I've found it best for Claude. That and automating a test that I would otherwise have done manually.
The niche I work in (FPGA engineering), the builds take a relatively long time (right now, at my current company my builds are generally 30-60m. Other places I've had 6+ hour builds...). A few weeks ago I was testing a corner case I found and was doing it manually, which was tedious. While building a new image that should fix it, I told Claude what I wanted to test and the clanker spit out a script that would have taken me longer to build than the FPGA image would have taken to finish. This way, I also have a somewhat decent (definitely not perfect) script that can take care of testing that corner case pretty well automatically.
That kind of thing is probably the best use case I've found for clankers like that.
