The upside is that you served your one term with dignity and got something done.

The fact that everyone thinks political action should be driven by reelection prospects and seems perfectly fine with the ill motivation and contempt for the people that goes with is a major fucking problem.

Like every other grand ol’ projection, I believe this should be interpreted as a threat of things to come, not academic speculation.

No you see, it’s backfire to the future.

Solvent greenback…eat the rich.

Open source is only as useful as the contributors and reviewers. Finding things after the fact helps noone.

People need to stop revering open source as the solution to humanity’s problems and treat it as a useful tool, nothing more.

Chaotic evil

The kind of community people like this would create doesn’t need to exist anyway.

Flies, honey, vinegar, asshole.

Pick your terms.

My last raise was 10k. But that was after 7+ years of no raises (agency work, slow times). When COVID hit, our business picked up for 2 years straight and I finally convinced them it was stable enough to commit. We’re a small company and they’d rather give out bonuses or assistance with personal expenses than commit to an annual salary increase (which I get), but COL has spiked in recent times, so the raise was well past due.

Shit I’m way past that. I’m ready to watch the world burn so people are forced to deal with the consequences of their treachery toward this planet and her people. Complacency needs to be eliminated.

Not to mention refactoring support…

There seems to be a trend of new (old) developers who find that strong typing is nothing more than a nuisance.

History repeating itself in the IT world. I don’t wanna be around to support the systems that inherit these guys.

Rather than be used for war, they’ll be used for threats of violence and propaganda

Surveillance is the word you’re looking for. Take all those NSA pipelines and run them through an AI and BAM, you’ve got your “terrorists”.

MITboi here.

They don’t make docs like they used to. For what it’s worth, those “…for Dummies” books were never going to make anyone an expert on anything, but every one of them I’ve ever read was the most densely packed set of comprehensible information on the subject available at the time.

100+ million years qualifies as right in the middle of “for long” in my book. The fact that an asteroid or comet of biblical proportions wiped them out has nothing to do with evolutionary effectiveness. Most of the animals that did survive either A) lived in water or B) lived underground.
