Justin Humphrey should be removed from office.

Cliché shitty man unhappy that women aren’t tailored for his personal tastes.

Extra funny that he jokes about banning a book, as if his villain status wasn’t already abundantly clear.

Yet once the measures are implemented and people become accustomed to their new, more pleasant surroundings, the benefits become clear.

Conservative thought is inherently stupid. Thoughtless. It just wants what is, without considering if the change is good or bad.

Vivek Tiwari, an investment banker, loves the new road for taking 45 minutes off his travel time. His office is in Nariman Point, the southernmost tip of the city, and home is 12 miles north in Bandra.

“It’s an amazing piece of infrastructure and driving on it is glorious,” he says. “Not all infrastructure can be equally parcelled out among the rich and the poor. Yes, only a minority like me use the road but maybe it’s going to help us generate more economic growth ultimately, which will benefit everyone.”

Vivek can fuck off.

Yeah I thought “campus” said “compus”

I didn’t do all the optional bosses in expedition 33. I finished the plot and was so powered up the story bosses didn’t even get a turn. But fighting the billion hp “dodge 13 hits in a row or die” just wasn’t fun for me.

Did zuck personally buy these or did a team of analysts doing research make proposals and he picked some?

It could maybe be useful information if the questions, answers, and test taking process are all public and non-binding.

Like, they get a pen and paper and a quiz appropriate for high school seniors. They’re filmed taking it in a classroom, and the results are all public. Different institutions can grade each test.

If you want to vote for the guy who says “the president writes laws” then that’s on you.

If conservatives try to make it like old timey literacy tests, it’s non binding so it can’t so much harm. Might even make them look bad, since it’s all public.

I don’t have a car but someone close to me does. Mostly for visiting family outside the city. I’ve said this often enough when we’re stuck in traffic that now she just looks at me and preemptively says "don’t say it!’

Yeah, this is one of the reasons why I only want to live in the NYC area of the US. Just take the train or bus, don’t worry about it.

Oof. I’ve had places that the pipeline was getting long. At one of my previous jobs I made it so all the tests could run locally, and we were keeping the full build as slow as possible.

We also didn’t do any browser tests (eg: selenium) because those tend to be slow and most people are bad at making them stable.

It’s important to know whats worth testing.

That’s the plan. Unfortunately the market is kind of meh. Lots of AI slop. Lots of getting ghosted.

Zero. I can use some of the 7 for holidays.

Well, sort of. The state gives you 56 hours of sick leave, which isn’t technically the same as vacation. Mental health, even without diagnosis, is a permitted use. My job didn’t give me any grief when I used some of my time to cover the holidays, but I didn’t have enough so some days I just didn’t get paid. (You acrue time off by working, and I started late in the year)

Oh, and this company also really dragged their feet on answering my questions about it, and told me one rule that’s just illegal here. I ended up looking it up myself, and thankfully they didn’t push back.

https://www.ny.gov/programs/new-york-paid-sick-leave if you’re morbidly curious.

Edit: they also had the nerve to send out “happy holidays!” Emails wishing me happy and healthy times. No pay, just thoughts and prayers.

I work for a shitty big ass company. I get the legal minimum of time off. In new York that’s seven days a year. One of my coworkers is in Texas, so she gets zero.

The us is an embarrassment

Edit: and technically that’s sick leave, not vacation time. I don’t think you need to prove you were sick, and mental health without a diagnosis seems like it’s covered, but if you said you wanted to go on a trip they might say that’s not allowed.

If the legal system concludes that he cannot be charged for murder, then the legal system is in error and should be amended.

The legal system is not a sacred, immutable, thing. It’s a bunch of agreements.

There’s a lot of fear at my job about changing code. I’ve been trying to tell them to start writing automated tests. Or at least a linter to check for syntax errors. They’re all like “ooh that sounds hard maybe next quarter”

Meanwhile, a trivial change requires a whole day because the developer has to manually test everything.

I just unilaterally added checks to code I have ownership over, but anything shared I’m getting “maybe in two quarters we can prioritize this” from management.

Allowing them on the platform doesn’t mean a full endorsement of the belief. It means that he (or whoever makes the decision) finds the belief acceptable enough to platform.

There is likely some line which is too far, and not allowed on the platform. Perhaps “eating live babies”? “Kicking puppies”? Something that is so unacceptable, it would not be allowed. This argument is that ICE and Nazi stuff belongs on the far side. That as a platform owner, you can say “that’s not allowed here”.

Allowing one person to say “I think the NY Yankees are the best” and another to say “I think the NY mets are the best” on your platform (eg: website, newspaper, bulletin board) doesn’t mean that you personally believe both. But if you let someone post “I think white people are best” and just leave that up, that’s saying that’s an acceptable message to say. Just harmless like talking about baseball.

This argument is some positions, like what ICE is doing, is outside the range of acceptable. The platform (a website in this case) should say they have to take that elsewhere.

My job has a “scrum master”. She’s nice, I guess, but as far as I can tell her entire job is sharing her screen so we can look at tickets. Then people tell her what to click on and what text to change. It’s excruciating because it would just be faster for the person talking to change it, instead of being like “remove the second bullet point. No, not that one”

On top of that they have all these tasks for “unit testing” but they don’t actually do unit testing. Someone just said, in the distant past, we should do testing so it’s there.

Yes. And verification requires platforming, so transitively they shouldn’t be verified.

It would mean that communism is acceptable to him. What’s tripping you up here?
