In Germany, teaching the Holocaust is mandatory. It includes visits to concentration camp, museums, etc. They don’t shy away from their own ugly history. Yet the kids aren’t damaged; they’re strengthened, matured, humbled. US needs to do same re slavery. Not that complicated.

We’re still trying to understand what the tech individual contributor ladder should look like. Different companies are using similar words for wholly different jobs. People are moving up the ladder by simply existing. And if you are starting today, nothing likely makes sense.

seeing a shitload of pictures of friends over the last two weeks wandering around conferences fully without a mask on, and predictably testing positive for covid when they get home.

look I'm going back to in-person conferences too but can y'all please put a fucking mask on indoors?

upsides to wearing a mask: i only have to put makeup on upper half of my face, no worrying about whether or not something's stuck in my teeth, able to lip sync in public without judgement, no pressure to fake smile at people as I pass them in the hallway, less likely to get covid

Libs of Tik Tok will try to get a teacher fired in one breath then complain about "cancel culture" when they're called out for it in the next.

Today 'LIbs of Tik Tok' gained 150,000 followers, started a Substack with a $50 subscription fee, began receiving a salary by the Babylon Bee to continue tweeting, and once again went on America's most-watched news show. And this shows how CANCEL CULTURE has gone WAY too far!!!!

A thing that shows the tech industry maturing is you don't see much - or at all - dunking on an outage/breach of a competitor. Instead, engineers at most competitors pay close attention, and try to learn from what happened, and stress-test & strengthen their own systems.

Woke simple means that you care about the well-being of people in marginalized communities. Being anti-woke means telling people that there are no marginalized people so just shut up about it because you're making me uncomfortable. This is why I am proudly woke.

I cannot discourage you more from viewing this as a desirable career path. It might work for one or two rare people but between the lack of time spent building and the rapid growth in management it's as likely to result in a poor skill set than long term success

You can always add additional automation later on. Sometimes the manual step with documentation is the right place to start.

I worry that very soon wearing a mask will be seen as negativity/fear mongering & people will try to ban them. Folks want the ability to harm without feeling bad or being reminded of the harm. The responsibility of quieting that discomfort will fall on the people being cautious.

I think it is a mistake to tie career ladders to years of experience, and that instead they should be defined by the scope and scale of projects someone is able to execute independently on. Years of experience are meaningless, demonstrated competence is all that matters.
