I'm not making any commentary on the art thereof.

This is a forum hosted by venture capitalist investors and frequented primarily by IT professionals ("hackers"), unwittingly opening some NSFW material probably won't fly well in that kind of environment.

If this counts as NSFW, then browse with images enabled.

The National Gallery (of the UK) has this page one click from the homepage, "Our most famous paintings"

This does in fact count as NSFW in every workplace I've ever been in. Perhaps stop trying to argue with the poster who was merely trying to give people a friendly warning just so they know they might get in trouble if someone sees them looking at this art at work.

Whether the standards of workplaces should allow artistic nudity is completely beside the point. Neither you, nor I, nor Dalewyn control such things. All we can do is work around them.

No. You could quit and be free.

I mean, yes: Not Safe For Work implies it's safe outside of work.

Though some might argue it's also Not Safe For Wife too, YMMV.

^ I missed the negation. I meant to write "If this counts as NSFW, browse with images disabled".
So, you're telling us that NSFW material belongs in Kenya and other places curating content? https://time.com/6247678/openai-chatgpt-kenya-workers/ How hypocritical.
I can actually imagine “venture capitalist investors” participating in some oiled spanking ritual, Vallejo style, because someone opened an “NSFW” link, and “corporate culture” dictates that kind of punishment must be performed.

Normal people, not so much.

Hi there, I'm the writer of the article. Apologies for the inconvenience. I have now replaced the image with the most naked women with a less naked one. Furthermore, I have added an NSFW badge to the top of the article (next to the date). Sorry again. It was thoughtless of me not to add some sort of label. I hope this remediates it now.
