Precaratize bosses: When the ruling class tells you what motivates them, believe them the first time.

My ebooks and audiobooks (from Tor Books, Head of Zeus, McSweeneys, Beacon, Verso and others) are for sale all over the net, but I sell 'em too, and when you buy 'em from me, I earn twice as much and you get books with no DRM and no license "agreements."

in reply to Cory Doctorow • • •Quick note: There's a link URL near the bottom of the "Bosses" article which isn't hyperlinked 😊
Also, quick question: I've noticed that you never set links to "open in a new window/tab" & since I know you know what you're doing, I was wondering why you choose to do this? I always set links to "new window/tab" based on my own behavior of reflexively closing windows but I don't presume to be right that this is how it should be done 😁
