There's nothing in Ryan Cohen's career that instills confidence to me. He seems like another tech leader that just got lucky at selling their company (which was only unprofitable for the majority of its lifetime until very very re

Because most modern development practices assume you work at a trillion dollar corporation and can subsidize very poor unscalable business practices. It's baffling, especially when modern solutions are worse at making maintainable soft

No, these things are actually much easier to solve when you don't have to care for millions of users across every timezone and can just focus on <10,000 users that can easily be handled with a modest VPS setup. It's truly pathe

These people will never admit they actually don't understand technology and just attack others. It's a great strategy if you're trying to proselytize a business into a religious movement, and it seems to be working on those t

Yeah no human has ever made a mistake, good odds here! Luckily hubris is only a trait found in fictional stories and there are no real world accounts of people making terrible decisions while others go along with their terrible decisions. C

And what good is that for the workers that still got laid off? Maybe software devs should have residuals.

Man your fall from public image is quite bad, you use to be a nice guy at conferences but just a jerk online? For shame.

GitLab is a great example of a lifestyle company that should have never become a public corporation.

That must explain why the "least" friendly MSFT asked the FBI to spy on employees attending pro-Gaza/anti-genocide protests: https://www.business-humanrights.org/en/latest-news/microsof... Good grie

It absolute makes sense to get "hung" up on something when it comes to planning society around it JFC. I'm with the other commentator, your understanding of these tools should be taken into question since you seem to be readi

Go has a built-in tools that mimic formatting + linters. Also LSP is a first class citizen in Go. I don't know what other "code quality" infra there is out there aside from formatting and linting.

Seriously, finding bootlickers aren't hard. The better question to ask is how many voters are bootlickers and that typically hovers around 20-30%, so the follow-up question should be what type of platform could capture the remaining 70

It didn't. The elites never want to admit that they have failed to efficiently use capital for the last 40 years. It's always the fault of workers that should never be trusted. Just continue trusting the elites as they ruined US m

React router duo would be a great example of known clowns. I totally get what the other person means. Most of us what to avoid the circus.

People never want to admit when they're used, especially when they're only used to make someone slightly more rich.

Apple isn't good, it's just materialistic. Let's not conflate the two, especially since both have no issues working with authoritarians of all strips.

I'm sorry but if you can work at Meta you can work at any other company in the US. You're clearly making a choice. Lets not forget "I'm just following orders" wasn't a valid excuse.

Ain't American capitalism grand? Truly a way to organize a species.

Profiting off of a genocide is a first in the social media world, pretty ground breaking. Especially when you find out that workers and management knew about it as it was on-going but did nothing in response. Truly such innovative people, s

It's a good thing big tech hires for ethical engineers and not ones that only care about money or social status.

You don't need an angle for that. That is highly invasive and can be used to target unique individuals. Why not default to a pro-human oriented mindset rather than pro-corporation?

Do you really think management would come out and say "Hey we actually fucked up and don't really know what to do. Please don't punish us, here is a ritual sacrifice instead."? Of course they're going to downplay th

This is how the elites actually feel tho. They think they can do no wrong, it's not their fault that they don't know how to run a business but you should please give them another chance and not change corporate law to stop benefit

No, it's more like we have undemocratically elected people in positions of power that want to act like dictatorships when in reality these people made a mistake that is costing the company billions of dollars and their ineptitude means
