Fascism tracks all freethought dissidents. It has to. Fascism cannot brook any dissent, it needs to crush it wherever it arises. Why else do you think America is building the largest and most pervasive surveillance system in the world? It n

In a perfect meritocracy, those who are best skilled will rise to the top. And many skills do not depend on nature or nurture. Just look at the IT industry. For decades some of the best and brightest came up through the ranks with zero fo

Sooooo… not only are companies kneecapping juniors by refusing to hire them, thereby starving the employee pipeline of future seniors, but now those very seniors are tapping out? Sounds like the entire software dev field is going to implode

Considering how many greenfield projects are reaching for Electron, and how few of them are moving off of it, I would say not. Until Electron based projects have viable competitors that aren’t using Electron, this nightmare will continue. T
