First Trump and now this. I am certain this is proof there is a god...who is looking at this and laughing at us. Why did it have to be this universe in which a Trump-Johnson world had to happen?

A well written article with most of the points I agree with about the 10x developer myth. But I am completely lost on the last point that the OP made about another myth this time on 'diversity'. > Most importantly, putting the

As much as I don't like interns, I am sure that they wouldn't even touch a system of the scale like Twitter's in my opinion. /s

Agreed, the only thing that a showstopper for me is the money and talent, It is still a struggle to find talented people who want to work for a startup.

In my opinion that is very unfortunate.

At long last, productivity has been restored. No more time wasting anti-intellectual arguments on a platform that has provided little to no value. Unfortunately, the poor SRE's at the company will reboot the system and the masses will

Alternatively, I use reader/distill mode, the color scheme on this blog made me squint and almost damage my eyes that I nearly stopped reading immediately until I switched on reader/distill mode. I agree, for a much wider (program

Well that is kind of too bad in my books. Less candidates for me to weed out.

dang, could you please flag this post, people are disagreeing with me here and this post isn't technically stimulating. I think we should keep politics out of HN at this point, I don't want it to become reddit.

Which is why I welcome Gab forking Mastodon. True, they may not have the same reach as everybody else, but they can have their own decentralised space to air their views and build their own stuff rather than relying on the mainstream social

As much as I hate the bad parts of Gab, I am glad they are standing up to their principles of being a truly free speech social network. The other social networks just love to censor everybody they disagree with, even a particular orange loo
