“The issue was therefore not simply the loss of one NTP #server or #redundancy in the #design of the #configuration of the three #NTP servers, but the propagation and acceptance of erroneous #date information by #interconnected #systems that rely on timing as a #trust and ordering #reference.” Q Who said this first? #LeslieLamport or some #Telstra exec?

#FollowTheMoney 🧵 41/n Ok so the reason for the long pause in this 🧵 was being made rdundant in July, by my lovely (not) employer of 13 years, Goldsmiths University. You can read all about it in this long #AcademicVenting 🧵, tracing the whole sorry saga from first rumblings in Nov ‘23 to the bitter end. But of course, #redundancy is all about money, and I think about money all the time now (I have to), so really should write it about it all here a bit https://mastodon.green/@pvonhellermannn/111563234050886278

#FollowTheMoney 🧵42/n Firstly, I am conscious of my own #redundancy being very much part of the wider hollowing out, draining out of both public services and professional, creative industries everywhere (see many posts ⬆️). I am really scared about this - it’s strange how this is happening but not really talked about; no #unemployment crisis narrative at all, as of course most people, like me, end up not being “unemployed” but doing smaller, precarious jobs; very few of us on benefiso no stats

#FollowTheMoney 🧵 44/n but also: #Redundancy has made me think deeply (of course!) about the role of money in personal decision making. I may be wrong but it feels like this is something we don’t talk about much, and yet it is is so central to everything! I DO want to talk about it, even if I have nothing insightful to say actually. Just a few observations.

  1. Money was at core of my decisions around redundancy. I have two teenage children and a high mortgage.

#FollowTheMoney 🧵 54/n This article is hard to stomach for all those of us currently looking for work, and not finding anything suitable, or anything at all. But it’s good that at least rising #unemployment is recognised now. My own #redundancy last year and subsequent struggles have made me so alert to all these wider structural changes; I am really scared that this may be just the beginning. Terrible combination of AI and money going only to the rich https://www.theguardian.com/money/2025/feb/10/britons-hunting-for-a-job-uk-jobseekers-pay?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

#FollowTheMoney 🧵 81/n From Foreign Correspondent to Uber Driver This is an incredible, moving personal perspective on this system that we are all entangled in, that shifts money to the few away from the rest of us at accelerating rate. Having also experienced #Redundancy not too long ago and still very much in the doldrums of short term, part time jobs, this resonates deeply. So many are going through this, we need to help each other. #Precarity https://open.substack.com/pub/stevescherer/p/my-journey-from-foreign-correspondent?r=4ug8&utm_medium=ios&shareImageVariant=overlay

#FollowTheMoney 90/n 🧵 UK unemployment rate hits five-year high of 5.2% In a way i am glad that at least rising #unemployment is slowly recognised and talked about in MSM - those of us who have lost jobs know anecdotally just how widespread #Redundancy now is. worrying nonetheless. Not least because #underemployment- many working in PT low grade jobs to make ends meet - is not picked up at all statistically. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1l7pedyzjeo https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1l7pedyzjeo https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c1l7pedyzjeo
