Well damn I'm sorry now I'm curious - a direct quote from what?

I think the biggest thing is most software "engineering" jobs are in no way engineering and are closer to a trade like being a mechanic or (imo) a doctor. It's fairly rote - you need good judgement and to stay current in late

No I'm with you, I'm inspired. Let's fight them!

Unfortunately "some places" does not include the US federal government.

Maybe in your country but not in the hellhole that is the US.

From your linked Wikipedia articles many corporations including Google were part of that opposite campaign. Exactly the type of people donating untold millions to our legislatures. Had nothing to do with any kind of grassroots pressure.

Then donate millions in campaign contributions to ensure they actually care at all what you think!

I was exactly like this and did exactly the same thing in 2024 and it has been a great weight lifted off of me. I allow news about stuff reported here, Polygon, or my local small-town paper but nothing like NYT (of which I used to read dail

It is, candid definitely does not mean secretive

I believe you two are arguing the same thing. Maybe the poster could have better worded it "general thought among most people is that the USA ..." Because you are both absolutely right.

Racist technology and a racist plaintiff in two racist states. What could go wrong????

Also make sure you're white!
