I have not slept well at all. Instead of working on negotiating layoffs, leadership is taking this extended break to congratulate themselves for what they've done. Meanwhile, workers of all disciplines and levels are either scrambling to find work or understanding what next steps they can take. I truly don't understand how people who run layoffs sleep well at night - knowing that you've signed off on the destabilizing action of so many.

TIL the % of humans that are intersex is about the same as the % of humans that are red-headed. Yet, most folks don’t even know about the first group. And some US states are writing laws that erase that group. Imagine no public bathrooms for red heads - that’s how dumb your laws sound.

I sometimes wonder if the agile/trunk-based/no-code-review/DORA4LIFE crew actually use software where "value is shipped constantly to the customer” because I am just so fucking tired of random UI changes. I honestly do not mind if someone thinks a thing through before shipping it. I am OK if that makes them not an "elite team" or if they have to "collaborate and critique" their work before shipping it. There are things in life more important than some programmer closing a JIRA ticket

Myself, along with almost 40 other workers (a large amount of @cfaworkers@union.place), were laid off from Code for America. Instead of working with workers to get a union contract, they gutted our stances. AFAIK, we will be getting COBRA covered until November 2023 and one month of severance. The workers wrote the following: https://cfaworkersunited.com/stories/2023/08/31/code-for-america-lays-off-35-colleagues

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is deprecating the go1.x runtime on Lambda, this is currently scheduled for December 31, 2023. Customers need to migrate their Go based lambda functions to the al2.provided runtime, which uses Amazon Linux 2 as the execution environment. I think this is a bad thing for a couple of reasons: There is no automated migration path from existing Go Lambda functions to the new custom runtime. Customers will need to manually refactor and migrate each function to this new runtime, which this is time-consuming and error-prone.
