The Bard in Green

As a PHP developer, I’m in full support and look forward to contributing to what will be a vastly simpler and easier to use Linux kernel.

I’m making fun of it. I am also a libertarian socialist or something.

I don’t care what the science says! I don’t care about the suffering of others! This offends my capitalist sensibilities that I have never questioned and I’m not about to start thinking too hard about it now just because some hippy libs want to sneak communism in the back door!

I have zero respect for this world view and hope we are able to simply bulldoze it with unstoppable momentum.

WTF red states?

I can only assume they WANT this to get challenged so it goes to the Supreme Court because our insane SCOTUS might uphold it.

Is that why she keeps refusing my pull requests…

Well, time for four more years of Trump, I guess.

When I look around the Democratic party, I see old people unwilling to change, from Biden and the DNC all the way down to my parent’s friends in their little rich white suburban neighborhood with a median age of 57 and a median net worth of $3,000,000. People who are firmly entrenched in the liberalism of the 80s and 90s and who are terrified of Trump and terrified of progressives and think it’s all insanity that also doesn’t really affect them.

This is the Democrats’ race to lose. All they have to do to lose it is stick their fingers in their ears and fight like hell for “Business as usual.” Which is exactly what they’re doing.

The most recent On The Media podcast has a section about this (Trump reporting and why people don’t get it that he’s stupid, crazy AND evil) that I feel like didn’t go far enough. They have a guest talking who literally says “The journalists aren’t doing their job, to inform the public.” I wanted to respond “NO, they ARE doing their job. Their job isn’t to inform the public, it’s to make $$$ by creating content that maximizes consumer engagement, while pushing narratives that appeal to their CEOs and shareholders. They’re doing EXACTLY their job. THAT’S the problem.”

Running each app component in it’s own iframe is perfectly valid microservices architecture change my mind.

I had a shitty old (late 60s) boss in 2008 who once interviewed a female engineer straight out of college.

Most interviews he gave took like 25-30 minutes. He spent an hour and a half alone in the conference room with this young woman.

After she left he said something to the team like “Sure wouldn’t mind seeing her around the office every day eh? We’re not hiring her of course. Women don’t have the head for this work.”

This same guy had me block all news sites except Fox News (I was the IT director). He was fine with his employees reading the news as long as it was Fox (I ended up teaching a couple of my coworkers how to use proxies).
