PSA: Again about scams

I will try to post more art soon again, but somehow I feel I should get this out here too. If this information helps least one person to avoid being scammed, it has been worth it - even middle of an art blog. 2 additional tools to help you fight and detect scams online: https://pimeyes.com/en https://sightengine.com/ I know many of my mutuals and visitors of my humble-doodles-art blog are kind hearted people, but unfortunately you must presume scam before its proven otherwise. When you DMs, tags or see reblogs of 'help random person' please do background search and find out signs for transparency. Same with eCommerce, adverts you see in social media (most notably in Facebook, Instagram or YouTube) - AI generated images, texts, paid actors from Fivr. DO YOUR RESEARCH. If you want cheap stuff (done with slavelabor), just use Ali Express or similar that upfront show where manufactured and what knockoffs they sell (the factory, province - you see that and make your consumer decisions based on facts). Do not hunt 'too-good-to-be-true' deals out in the wild, you get scammed - just get them knock offs from the source from Ali Express. Same with charity and help. Always ... ALWAYS do your research. GenAI in text or image=100% scam. And more about scams and nature of scams feel free to watch some entertaining, but informative YouTube channels like PleasantGreen, Scammer Payback or jim Browning. Also please have chat with your elderly relatives or friends or neighbors. Remind them about dangers like these. Stay safe out there and be kind.

In 2023, the fast-fashion giant Shein was everywhere. Crisscrossing the globe, airplanes ferried small packages of its ultra-cheap clothing from thousands of suppliers to tens of millions of customer mailboxes in 150 countries. Influencers’ “#sheinhaul” videos advertised the company’s trendy styles on social media, garnering billions of views.

At every step, data was created, collected, and analyzed. To manage all this information, the fast fashion industry has begun embracing emerging AI technologies. Shein uses proprietary machine-learning applications — essentially, pattern-identification algorithms — to measure customer preferences in real time and predict demand, which it then services with an ultra-fast supply chain.

As AI makes the business of churning out affordable, on-trend clothing faster than ever, Shein is among the brands under increasing pressure to become more sustainable, too. The company has pledged to reduce its carbon dioxide emissions by 25 percent by 2030 and achieve net-zero emissions no later than 2050.

But climate advocates and researchers say the company’s lightning-fast manufacturing practices and online-only business model are inherently emissions-heavy — and that the use of AI software to catalyze these operations could be cranking up its emissions. Those concerns were amplified by Shein’s third annual sustainability report, released late last month, which showed the company nearly doubled its carbon dioxide emissions between 2022 and 2023.

“AI enables fast fashion to become the ultra-fast fashion industry, Shein and Temu being the fore-leaders of this,” said Sage Lenier, the executive director of Sustainable and Just Future, a climate nonprofit. “They quite literally could not exist without AI.” (Temu is a rapidly rising ecommerce titan, with a marketplace of goods that rival Shein’s in variety, price, and sales.)

In the 12 years since Shein was founded, it has become known for its uniquely prolific manufacturing, which reportedly generated over $30 billion of revenue for the company in 2023. Although estimates vary, a new Shein design may take as little as 10 days to become a garment, and up to 10,000 items are added to the site each day. The company reportedly offers as many as 600,000 items for sale at any given time with an average price tag of roughly $10. (Shein declined to confirm or deny these reported numbers.) One market analysis found that 44 percent of Gen Zers in the United States buy at least one item from Shein every month.

That scale translates into massive environmental impacts. According to the company’s sustainability report, Shein emitted 16.7 million total metric tons of carbon dioxide in 2023 — more than what four coal power plants spew out in a year. The company has also come under fire for textile waste, high levels of microplastic pollution, and exploitative labor practices. According to the report, polyester — a synthetic textile known for shedding microplastics into the environment — makes up 76 percent of its total fabrics, and only 6 percent of that polyester is recycled.

And a recent investigation found that factory workers at Shein suppliers regularly work 75-hour weeks, over a year after the company pledged to improve working conditions within its supply chain. Although Shein’s sustainability report indicates that labor conditions are improving, it also shows that in third-party audits of over 3,000 suppliers and subcontractors, 71 percent received a score of C or lower on the company’s grade scale of A to E — mediocre at best.

Machine learning plays an important role in Shein’s business model. Although Peter Pernot-Day, Shein’s head of global strategy and corporate affairs, told Business Insider last August that AI was not central to its operations, he indicated otherwise during a presentation at a retail conference at the beginning of this year.

“We are using machine-learning technologies to accurately predict demand in a way that we think is cutting edge,” he said. Pernot-Day told the audience that all of Shein’s 5,400 suppliers have access to an AI software platform that gives them updates on customer preferences, and they change what they’re producing to match it in real time.

“This means we can produce very few copies of each garment,” he said. “It means we waste very little and have very little inventory waste.” On average, the company says it stocks between 100 to 200 copies of each item — a stark contrast with more conventional fast-fashion brands, which typically produce thousands of each item per season, and try to anticipate trends months in advance. Shein calls its model “on-demand,” while a technology analyst who spoke to Vox in 2021 called it “real-time” retail.

At the conference, Pernot-Day also indicated that the technology helps the company pick up on “micro trends” that customers want to wear. “We can detect that, and we can act on that in a way that I think we’ve really pioneered,” he said. A designer who filed a recent class action lawsuit in a New York District Court alleges that the company’s AI market analysis tools are used in an “industrial-scale scheme of systematic, digital copyright infringement of the work of small designers and artists,” that scrapes designs off the internet and sends them directly to factories for production.

In an emailed statement to Grist, a Shein spokesperson reiterated Peter Pernot-Day’s assertion that technology allows the company to reduce waste and increase efficiency and suggested that the company’s increased emissions in 2023 were attributable to booming business. “We do not see growth as antithetical to sustainability,” the spokesperson said.

An analysis of Shein’s sustainability report by the Business of Fashion, a trade publication, found that last year, the company’s emissions rose at almost double the rate of its revenue — making Shein the highest-emitting company in the fashion industry. By comparison, Zara’s emissions rose half as much as its revenue. For other industry titans, such as H&M and Nike, sales grew while emissions fell from the year before.

Shein’s emissions are especially high because of its reliance on air shipping, said Sheng Lu, a professor of fashion and apparel studies at the University of Delaware. “AI has wide applications in the fashion industry. It’s not necessarily that AI is bad,” Lu said. “The problem is the essence of Shein’s particular business model.”

Other major brands ship items overseas in bulk, prefer ocean shipping for its lower cost, and have suppliers and warehouses in a large number of countries, which cuts down on the distances that items need to travel to consumers.

According to the company’s sustainability report, 38 percent of Shein’s climate footprint comes from transportation between its facilities and to customers, and another 61 percent come from other parts of its supply chain. Although the company is based in Singapore and has suppliers in a handful of countries, the majority of its garments are produced in China and are mailed out by air in individually addressed packages to customers. In July, the company sent about 900,000 of these to the US every day.

Shein’s spokesperson told Grist that the company is developing a decarbonization road map to address the footprint of its supply chain. Recently, the company has increased the amount of inventory it stores in US warehouses, allowing it to offer American customers quicker delivery times, and increased its use of cargo ships, which are more carbon-efficient than cargo planes.

“Controlling the carbon emissions in the fashion industry is a really complex process,” Lu said, adding that many brands use AI to make their operations more efficient. “It really depends on how you use AI.”

There is research that indicates using certain AI technologies could help companies become more sustainable. “It’s the missing piece,” said Shahriar Akter, an associate dean of business and law at the University of Wollongong in Australia. In May, Akter and his colleagues published a study finding that when fast-fashion suppliers used AI data management software to comply with big brands’ sustainability goals, those companies were more profitable and emitted less. A key use of this technology, Atker says, is to closely monitor environmental impacts, such as pollution and emissions. “This kind of tracking was not available before AI-based tools,” he said.

Shein told Grist it does not use machine-learning data management software to track emissions, which is one of the uses of AI included in Akter’s study. But the company’s much-touted usage of machine-learning software to predict demand and reduce waste is another of the uses of AI included in the research.

Regardless, the company has a long way to go before meeting its goals. Grist calculated that the emissions Shein reportedly saved in 2023 — with measures such as providing its suppliers with solar panels and opting for ocean shipping — amounted to about 3 percent of the company’s total carbon emissions for the year.

Lenier, from Sustainable and Just Future, believes there is no ethical use of AI in the fast-fashion industry. She said that the largely unregulated technology allows brands to intensify their harmful impacts on workers and the environment. “The folks who work in fast-fashion factories are now under an incredible amount of pressure to turn out even more, even faster,” she said.

Lenier and Lu both believe that the key to a more sustainable fashion industry is convincing customers to buy less. Lu said if companies use AI to boost their sales without changing their unsustainable practices, their climate footprints will also grow accordingly. “It’s the overall effect of being able to offer more market-popular items and encourage consumers to purchase more than in the past,” he said. “Of course, the overall carbon impact will be higher.”

Mumbai’s Supply Chain Backbone: The Role of SailOn Logistics in Freight Forwarding

When I think about the lifeline of India’s trade and commerce, Mumbai immediately comes to mind. It’s not just the financial capital of the country—it’s also a bustling logistics hub where countless shipments begin their global journeys. As someone deeply involved in the world of supply chains, I’ve come to realize that behind every smooth shipment and timely delivery, there’s often a reliable freight forwarder working tirelessly in the background. That’s where SailOn Logistics steps in.

Why Freight Forwarding Matters More Than Ever

Whether you’re running an eCommerce store, managing a manufacturing unit, or coordinating distribution for retail chains, freight forwarding is the glue that holds your supply chain together. Especially in a fast-paced market like Mumbai, delays and confusion in shipping can cost a business not just time, but money and reputation.

As I explored various freight forwarding companies in Mumbai, one name kept standing out—SailOn Logistics. Their ability to combine global reach with local expertise is exactly what modern businesses need.

What Makes SailOn Logistics the Go-To Freight Forwarder in Mumbai?

Let me break it down for you from my own experience.

1. Door-to-Door Convenience

I loved how SailOn Logistics takes care of the entire process—from picking up goods at the factory to ensuring they reach the customer’s doorstep overseas. It really helped me reduce coordination headaches and focus more on growing my business.

2. Customs Made Simple

If you’ve ever tried navigating customs paperwork, you know how complex and time-consuming it can be. SailOn’s team walked me through every detail, ensuring compliance and smooth clearance, which is rare even among seasoned freight forwarding companies in Mumbai.

3. Global Network, Local Expertise

Mumbai’s port is massive and constantly buzzing with activity. Having a freight forwarder in Mumbai that knows the ins and outs of port operations is invaluable. SailOn has a well-established presence in the region and strong global ties, making international shipping hassle-free.

One thing I truly appreciate is transparency. With SailOn Logistics, I never felt like I was in the dark. From live tracking to prompt updates, they gave me peace of mind every step of the way.

Supporting Growth for All Business Sizes

What really impressed me is how SailOn Logistics isn’t just for the big players. Whether you’re a small homegrown brand looking to expand or a large enterprise with complex freight needs, they offer flexible solutions tailored to your size and budget. That’s what sets them apart from many other freight forwarding companies in Mumbai.

Final Thoughts

In a city like Mumbai, where every minute counts and competition is fierce, having a dependable logistics partner isn’t just an advantage—it’s a necessity. For me, SailOn Logistics has been more than just a freight forwarder in Mumbai; they’ve become an essential part of my supply chain strategy.

So, if you’re looking to streamline your shipping process, ensure on-time deliveries, and gain a logistics partner that genuinely cares about your growth—give SailOn Logistics a call. Trust me, your supply chain will thank you.

Hire a Dedicated Laravel Developer

1. Snapshot: Why This Guide Matters

Laravel remains one of the most productive, elegant PHP frameworks for building scalable web apps, SaaS platforms, admin portals, multi-tenant products, and API-driven ecosystems. Whether you’re expanding an MVP, refactoring legacy PHP, or building a high-availability enterprise platform, choosing the right engagement model is critical. Should you hire a Dedicated Laravel Developer? Is it better to hire a Laravel Developer India for cost leverage and round-the-clock velocity? Or do you need the broader delivery governance of a Custom Software Development Company USA partner for compliance and enterprise onboarding? This guide breaks it down into actionable points.

2. When Hiring a Dedicated Laravel Developer Makes Sense

Engage a focused Laravel specialist (or pod) when:

You’re scaling fast and need feature velocity on an existing Laravel codebase.

API-first product demands well-structured REST or GraphQL endpoints.

Complex business logic (billing, roles/permissions, subscription tiers) lives in the backend.

Tech debt dragging delivery—migrations, outdated packages, unversioned env configs.

Need rapid prototypes that can graduate to production.

Rule of Thumb: If 60%+ of current sprint stories are backend/Laravel-focused, a dedicated hire is usually ROI-positive within two sprints.

3. Benefits of Hiring a Laravel Developer in India

If you plan to Hire Laravel Developer India, consider the strategic upside:

Cost Efficiency – Competitive hourly and monthly rates vs. US/EU.

Large Talent Pool – Deep PHP + Laravel community; experience across eCommerce, SaaS, fintech, and custom ERP builds.

Time-Zone Coverage – India + US overlap windows enable near 24‑hour development cycles with staggered teams.

English Communication & Global Delivery Maturity – Many Indian engineers work with US, UK, and AU clients regularly.

Flexible Engagement Models – Part-time, full-time, or squad-based.

Tip: Request code samples, Git repos, or technical assignments to evaluate real Laravel craftsmanship—service container use, queueing, events, jobs, policies.

4. When You Need a Custom Software Development Company USA Involved

Individual developers are great for feature throughput, but product growth often requires structure. A Custom Software Development Company USA can bring:

Compliance Alignment – SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI, GDPR-driven process maturity.

Contracting & Procurement Fit – Easier onboarding for US enterprises and funded startups.

Cross‑Disciplinary Teams – DevOps, QA automation, product design, data engineering.

Onshore Project Management – Stakeholder workshops during US business hours.

IP & Legal Clarity – US law jurisdiction, NDAs, work-for-hire agreements.

Hybrid Model: Combine an Indian delivery engine (cost + scale) with a US lead vendor for governance, account management, and client-facing reporting. Many companies quietly operate this way to balance budget and trust.

5. Core Laravel Services to Expect

From freelancers, agencies, or full custom shops, insist on:

Greenfield Laravel App Development – Modules, routing, controllers, models, Blade or Inertia/Vue/React frontends.

API & Microservice Buildouts – Token auth, rate limiting, versioning, Swagger/OpenAPI docs.

Database Design & Migrations – Relational integrity, indexing, seeders, factories.

Authentication & Authorization – Laravel Breeze, Jetstream, Passport, Sanctum.

Queues, Jobs & Events – Redis, SQS, RabbitMQ for async workloads.

Testing Strategy – PHPUnit, Pest, feature + integration test pipelines.

Performance Tuning – Caching, Horizon, Octane, database query optimization.

Maintenance & Version Upgrades – From legacy 5.x to current LTS.

6. Vendor Qualification Checklist (Copy/Paste)

Technical Depth

Laravel version experience (LTS? latest?).

Use of service container + SOLID patterns.

API pagination, resources, and transformers.

Queue workers + scheduled jobs management.

Quality & DevOps

CI/CD stack? (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, Jenkins.)

Automated tests + coverage metrics.

Env management (.env secrets, Vault, parameter store.)

Security

Input validation, mass-assignment protection.

CSRF, XSS,&  SQL  injection mitigation.

Dependency scanning + patch cadence.

Business Fit

Handles US time overlap? Weekly demo cadence?

Prior experience integrating with US SaaS/payment stacks (Stripe, Auth0, Twilio, HubSpot)?

7. Cost Drivers You Should Model

Team Composition – Senior vs. mid-level mix.

Scope Volatility – Product-led orgs change fast; budget buffers help.

Integrations – Payment gateways, CRM, ERP, marketing automation.

Infrastructure & Hosting – AWS, DigitalOcean, Azure; container vs. shared.

Compliance & Documentation – Adds PM + audit effort.

Refactoring Legacy PHP – Migrating raw PHP, CodeIgniter, or Laravel 5 apps increases cost.

Budget Tip: Ask vendors to split Build / Maintain / Optimize into separate cost tracks so you can phase spend.

8. SEO & Conversion Tips for Your Service Page

To rank without stuffing:

Use Hire a Dedicated Laravel Developer in H1 or intro.

Include Hire Laravel Developer India in a geo-value or pricing comparison section.

Reference Custom Software Development Company USA in a credibility/compliance/enterprise trust block.

Add supporting terms: Laravel consulting, Laravel upgrade services, Laravel API development, and a remote Laravel team.

Publish a case study with load time, feature velocity, or cost savings metrics.

Add strong CTA buttons: "Request Laravel Audit," "Hire Dedicated Team," "Talk to US Delivery Lead."

9. 12-Step Implementation Roadmap

Define business goals + KPIs (feature velocity, uptime, conversion).

Audit the current PHP/Laravel or legacy stack.

Prioritize must-fix security + upgrade tasks.

Choose engagement path (dedicated, India, US partner, hybrid).

Align sprint cadence + tooling (Git, Jira, Slack, CI/CD).

Establish coding standards + branching model.

Set up staging + automated deployments.

Implement core modules / APIs.

Add auth, roles, and billing.

Performance + load testing.

UAT + stakeholder signoff.

Launch + monitored maintenance retainers.

10. Final Takeaway & Call to Action

You don’t have to choose between speed and structure. Start lean: Hire Dedicated Laravel Developer to accelerate delivery. Expand smart: Hire Laravel Developer India teams for scale and cost efficiency. And when governance, compliance, or enterprise growth becomes a priority, partner with a Custom Software Development Company USA that can integrate everything under one delivery model.

Ready to move? Share your project stage, tech stack, budget range, and launch timeline—I’ll help you shape a shortlist and next steps.

Creating a Value Factory with DevOps Culture: A Guide for Modern Businesses

In today’s fast-paced digital world, delivering continuous value to customers is paramount for any organization striving for success. This is where the concept of a “Value Factory” comes into play, especially within a DevOps culture. DevOps isn’t just a set of tools and processes; it’s a cultural shift that emphasizes collaboration, automation, continuous learning, and a relentless focus on customer value.

Breaking down silos for enhanced collaboration

The first step towards creating a Value Factory is fostering an environment of open communication and collaboration. By breaking down silos between development, operations, and other departments, organizations can ensure a seamless flow of work and shared responsibility towards the product’s success. Cross-functional teams are pivotal in this aspect, bringing together diverse skills and perspectives to tackle challenges efficiently.

Automation: The backbone of efficiency

Automation is key in a DevOps culture. Implementing Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipelines and managing infrastructure as code (IaC) not only accelerates delivery but also enhances consistency and reliability in product development and deployment.

Cultivating continuous learning and adaptability

A culture that values learning from failures and prioritizes continuous improvement is essential. Encouraging experimentation and leveraging feedback loops helps in quickly adapting to user needs and market changes, thereby ensuring that the product evolves in the most value-driven manner.

Customer value at the forefront

Understanding and optimizing the value stream is critical in focusing efforts on activities that directly contribute to customer satisfaction. Adopting methodologies like the Build-Measure-Learn feedback loop facilitates rapid iteration based on real user insights, ensuring that the product truly resonates with its intended audience.

Quality assurance and metrics-driven decisions

Integrating quality assurance throughout the development lifecycle and employing automated testing ensures that the product not only meets but exceeds customer expectations. Moreover, utilizing metrics and monitoring tools provides actionable insights that drive informed decisions, further enhancing product value and performance.

Leadership’s role in driving change

None of this can be achieved without the unwavering commitment and support from leadership. For a DevOps culture to truly take root and flourish, leaders must be actively involved, empowering their teams, and fostering an environment where innovation thrives.

Los Angeles Apparel is a modern American clothing brand that has quickly gained recognition for its commitment to ethical manufacturing, high-quality basics, and a bold, transparent business model. Founded in 2016 by Dov Charney—former CEO of American Apparel—the company was built on the same principles that once made American Apparel a household name: “Made in the USA,” fair wages, and vertical integration.

Based in South Central Los Angeles, the brand operates its own manufacturing facility where everything from design and dyeing to cutting and sewing is handled under one roof. This hands-on approach allows Los Angeles Apparel to maintain control over quality, ensure fair labor practices, and deliver products with a quick turnaround time.

What sets Los Angeles Apparel apart is its dedication to American manufacturing at a time when most of the fashion industry has outsourced production overseas. The company provides jobs to hundreds of workers in Los Angeles, offering competitive wages and safe working conditions—something that’s become increasingly rare in the global apparel market.

The brand specializes in high-quality wardrobe staples like T-shirts, sweatshirts, fleece, bodysuits, and leggings, made primarily from cotton and other durable fabrics. These pieces are popular among fashion-conscious consumers, designers, and screen printers who appreciate the blank-canvas appeal of the clothing.

Los Angeles Apparel also takes pride in sustainable practices. The company uses eco-friendly dyes, recycled fabrics when possible, and strives to reduce water and energy consumption throughout the production process. By keeping operations local, they also significantly cut down on the carbon footprint that comes with global shipping.

Despite facing challenges—including scrutiny during the COVID-19 pandemic for health violations at its factory—Los Angeles Apparel has shown resilience. The company continues to grow its wholesale and direct-to-consumer business through its eCommerce platform, reaching customers across the country who value transparency and ethical production.

Its bold, often provocative marketing style echoes the aesthetic that once defined American Apparel, appealing to a younger demographic seeking authenticity and edgy, minimalist fashion. Yet, unlike fast fashion brands, Los Angeles Apparel positions itself as a long-lasting, premium alternative.

As the fashion industry slowly begins to shift toward more responsible production practices, Los Angeles Apparel stands out as a pioneer of the movement. With a focus on quality, ethical labor, and local manufacturing, it is reshaping what it means to be an American-made brand in the 21st century.

For conscious consumers and creatives alike, Los Angeles Apparel offers more than just clothing—it represents a movement toward better fashion standards, made close to home.
