Well-functioning engineering organizations find the right balance between following a ratified set of best practices and not turning your brain off.

When something is boring we shouldn't call it vanilla. Vanilla is a rich and complex flavor. When something is boring should call it "red velvet."

The wealthiest .1% could wipe out poverty and disease should they care to. They don’t care to.

It seems significant, if also ominous, that armed citizens popping off shots blindly are now afforded the same passive-construction rhetorical absolution for killing people that police get.

there is a special place in hell for developers who give their cli’s -v flag a meaning other than version/verbose

Now that The Tinder Swindler has proved to be a huge success on Netflix - a documentary of a con artist scamming ~$10M from women over the span of years until arrested - I’m waiting when they’ll do The Crypto Swindler where hackers drain 10x this amount from unsuspecting people.

I declined my exit interview as it would require me to expend more effort to help them understand why I left than they have the entire time I was there.

As an engineering lead, my developer urge to assign coding tickets to myself so that I too want to code and not deliver it on time as I have gazillion of other things to do.

love it when people have terrible hot takes shitting on infra teams rather than on the systemic issues that lead to teams being underfunded, under-supported, and understaffed. You need aligning incentives and collaborate. Slinging things over walls doesn’t get anything done.

Not sure which recruiters need to hear this, but "Remote (until COVID)" is NOT a perk 🙄

I understand that Kanye is struggling psychologically, but his actions now verge on abuse. He’s using the public & media to pressure KK to come back to him, & KK has been objectified to the point that she’s not even seen as person. Why is all the concern for him not her?

The lack of negative personality traits doesn’t mean the presence of positive ones. And being a "nice guy" isn't a personality trait, it's just something you do. A bare minimum, really. *prepares for the "nice guys" in the comments* 🙂🍿

NotPokket (@NotPokket)Tue, 08 Feb 2022 18:13 GMT

To word it differently: Saying "I'm a nice guy" as your best trait is like saying that a car "has seatbelts" as a selling point.

Point being; that is a bare minimum and expected. If that's all you can bring to the table, no wonder they aren't interested.
