Should the Facebook “virtual walkout” be understood as highly paid software engineers closing their company-provided MacBook Pros at 5pm? https://twitter.com/dan_abramov/status/1267544361929256966

Looking to find some info on these Chilli peppers, I bought them in a mixed pack and no description of what they are. They are not as hot as I expected. The red ones have a nice fruity flavor. The dark green seem to be jalapeños and are not hot at all. #chillipepepers

Looking for feedback regarding chairs. Mine broke and I am trying to decide between a "gaming" and "economic" chair. I like the idea of being able to recline and take a nap in the gaming chair. I'm looking at the cougar armor one. I can't afford to spend a lot on a chair and I need to find something local. International Shipping on a chair is going to be more than the cost of the chair.

This is why we need to support Gitlab. Vim and Emacs. Brave Browser and other alternatives to MSFT hegemony.
World where everyone is forced to use Github and VSCode is not a happy place. https://twitter.com/djspiewak/status/1266748589457330178

We should all be grateful to Twitter for censoring harmful words and opinions.
This enables us to have healthy and inoffensive conversations like this...

I don't understand why someone would be against @unclebobmartin ? His books on programming are some of the best and most entertaining that I have read. He really puts what it means to be a professional back into our field.

Well he blocked me before I could say.
"Well, while I see what you are saying, I think you are blowing things way out of proportion. I mean if my behavior is "utterly appalling" I can assume that "problematic behavior" might be an exaggeration as well. "

What pains me about Zoom being such sleazeballs when it comes to both security and privacy is just how unnecessary it is. They have good fundamental tech! But as the skeletons keep falling out of the closet, it’s clear that the organization is fundamentally corrupt.
"Everything works better on paper than in real life."
I think this is why people working in tech sometimes get sucked in by warped philosophy. In tech what works on paper better work in real life, but when it comes to people, it is never like that.
