I feel like anti vaxxers in position of authority should be criminally liable. That’s a lot of sickened people for nothing.

Maybe they should instead build technology that people want and that solves their needs.

Market the company and, for smaller companies that want funding, beg and network.

Leadership is often removed from how work actually gets done. This is part of why they often make bonkers decisions.

They don’t understand that most of the time isn’t going into typing code into the computer. It’s figuring out what the product guy and CEO actually want. It’s pulling answers out of them (eg: what do you want to do if the user’s name is null?) or dealing with it when they don’t like your decision (eg: you didn’t say what to do when I don’t have their name, so the email just says “hey”. I really don’t think this is a crisis)

When the “woke” mania swept the country in 2020,

Eyeroll. Can already tell this person is an idiot.

Many executives are also board members.

This doesn’t even seem to be front page news. The us is desensitized to mass murder.

I think there’s a difference between like a landlord and a property management company.

Property management that fixes stuff, cleans up common areas, and such adds value. They do labor that’s useful.

A landlord that just gets money because they legally own the place is not adding value. That’s what most people hate.

You can, of course, have horrible people assigned to manage the property.

Paywall, but going by the headline: good

The world is burning and these assholes are making it worse.

Something like that should be required for all drivers

We should make trump ride a bike. Up one of those busy streets with a painted lane and double parked cars.

Oh yeah. I throw anything in there. I sincerely enjoy it, in addition to it being cheap. But I used to buy a lot of other stuff too.

I’d buy a lot more food if my job paid me more. Instead, rice and beans baby. Maybe a splurge on champagne every time a key republican dies, but that’s it.

I would watch a movie where some people organized and liberated the camp. Come morning, there’s no prisoners and all the ICE goons are hanging upside down by their legs.

Workers skeptical of unions in a survey of 1,900 tech professionals conducted by the career site Blind cited specific concerns: that unions are “not meritocratic,” “prevent innovation,” and “hold back earnings of top performers.”

Looking at my non union job where idiots make millions and it has taken years to get even the basics of ci/cd implemented.

That can be scaled horizontally and is just a matter of building more data centers.

At one of my old jobs “just” was considered a bad word

I was outside the city a couple weeks ago and saw a lot of maga stuff. Maybe I should get like stickers or business cards for this site to leave places like that.

Good. Fuck Microsoft. No regrets about running Linux for the past few years.

Good. Break them up. Criminally charge their leadership.

Ed Zitron wrote a whole thing about these people. Calls them “Business Idiots”

You could go down that train of thought, but you’ll find it impossible to make any decisions for fear of making things worse. “Should I put out this fire in my kitchen? No, what if the house has to burn down to stop double-mecha-hitler from being born??” is not a useful way of thinking.
