how are people not understanding that the entire point of a strike is to be extremely inconvenient so as to make the value of your work apparent

is it normal to bounce back that quickly after an operation involving general anaesthetic?

Iโm still trying to get my head around the idea that @BorisJohnson๐คก had a general anaesthetic early in the morning, and yet somehow was up to two parties late the same night. I had a GA last year. I just canโt square this with my experience at all.Post details
Not one party but two ๐ Just hours after PM had minor op on sinuses under general anaesthetic he gave a "short and funny" speech to donors at the posh V&A bash. He was later spotted, along with much of the Cabinet, at Rupert Murdoch's summer party at the Serpentine Gallery.Pippa Crerar (@PippaCrerar)Tue, 21 Jun 2022 17:01 +0000

Full article here: businessinsider.com/amazon-noncompโฆ I said this before, and will say it again: if you join Amazon, negotiate a higher package so you can pay if they invoke the 18-month non-compete with no pay. Or maybe pass joining, if they don't remove it. twitter.com/GergelyOrosz/sโฆPost details
Now that Microsoft is getting rid of their non-compete agreements, itโs worth remembering that Amazon *will* enforce theirs. Anyone taking a job there - esp if a senior one - should budget to get paid above the market to cover 6-12 months of unpaid vacation after leaving Amazon.twitter.com/Werner/status/โฆGergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz)Thu, 09 Jun 2022 20:49 +0000
Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz)Mon, 20 Jun 2022 19:52 +0000
One of the myths is how, when companies like Amazon include non-compete agreements in contracts for all employees, they only enforce it for executives. Oh no. Amazon can enforce it for anyone. Like for this L4 software engineer - the lowest level - who tried to join Microsoft:Gergely Orosz (@GergelyOrosz)Mon, 20 Jun 2022 19:50 +0000
Lots of technical debt occurs because nobody at the time knew how to solve a specific problem or set of related problems. You tend to recognize patterns in a code base or project

Almost every pop star in the 80s and 90s owes their career to Kate Bush because, on her first and only tour in 1979, she and her sound engineer created the first ever live headset out of an old clothes hanger because she needed a way to sing live and dance at the same time.

Obligatory: masculinity isn't real.
