The evils of modern capitalism really reminds me of the only system that offered an alternative to the evils of modern capitalism.

There’s a 2:3 ratio of time-estimators to doers at my current company and the devs have to spend about 20-25% of their time estimating their time.

I had enough pull to make a “hit squad” unit that “just executed” and everyone was stunned at how we managed to pull off a from scratch release in “just” 8 months, honestly compared to previous companies that was slow but I also had to train up 5 junior/mids who had never worked with Go or Kubernetes at the same time, saving the company potentially millions in expenses and making a product they are already selling to clients.

Now they’ve assigned a product owner and have asked us to start doing daily’s so I’m going to quit.

SCRUM is middle-management capture and all the middle-managers know they are not necessary.

One thing I’ve learned this election cycle is how few people have any knowledge of utilitarianism. Genocide is better than genocide+1. Not acting is a moral choice, and frequently a cowardly one.

A lot of people are saying Hitler was a bad guy for killing 6,000,000 Jewish people but I think we should give credit where credit is due and praise him for not killing 6,000,001.

In North Korea, only approved student groups are allowed and there is a display of military force at university sports games.

Is it my support for genociding Palestinians to blame?

No, the Muslims are homophobic. That must be it.

Why does Jesus look like an airbrushed Andrew Tate if Andrew Tate grew a beard to hide the fact he doesn’t have a chin?
