It’s not a matter of being “more antisemitic”: it’s a matter of understanding the line of what’s less unacceptable to say in public. You think most of these Republicans are “less antisemitic” than Kanye or they just understand what they “can and can’t say” without censure?

@benbartlettberk I’m not confident investigators can stop the next occurrence.

22 shots fired at person, near a school. It’s a miracle no one was injured or killed. This could have been anyone of us. People are justifiably outraged. No one deserves to live in fear. I’m confident our investigators will bring this to a just conclusion.

UPDATE: A Berkeley police officer was on his way to work at about 3 p.m. Wednesday when he spotted a vehicle linked to an auto burglary from earlier this week. Police found 22 casings at the scene, which was not far from Sylvia Mendez Elementary. berkeleyscanner.com/2022/11/30/sho…

I'm seeing cars parked in the Milvia St. Bike Lanes every day. I thought I'd see less of this behavior over time but it seems to be getting worse. @WalkBikeBerk #visionzero #protectedbikelane #protectedparkinglane

I was laid off from Twitter this afternoon. I was in charge of managing badge access to Twitter offices. Elon just called me and asked if I could come back to help them regain access to HQ as they shut off all badges and accidentally locked themselves out.

This is terrible. There is a day left for the world leaders at #COP27 to do the right thing and make sure he is on a plane to the UK now. I have all the leverage they need. iIt’s a choice.

This holiday season Twitter fires 4K workers, Amazon fires 10K workers, & Facebook fires 11K workers—all while US Billionaire pandemic wealth increased an absurd $1.7T.😳 A reminder that billionaires don’t create jobs—they exploit workers. Tax billionaires. Unionize workers.

@polotek At some point tech debt does slow down delivery if features. But it’s very difficult to measure when this happens so we’re left with personal judgements from engineers. Has to be a lot of trust on both sides to address that kind of situation.

English

Marco Rogers@polotek·16 Kas

Whenever I raise these issues, what people like to say is "managers want to prioritize features". And I've tried to acknowledge in many different ways. Yes they do. For better or worse, we live under this assumption that something called "features" is what drives business.

English

Marco Rogers@polotek·16 Kas

I just realized I never actually delivered on this. I know I've tweeted a lot today already. But I've been doing a lot of messing with people, so maybe I owe you something more substantial. Let's come back to this.

Marco Rogers@polotek

That said, I will commit to coming back to this discussion tomorrow and being more direct about some of my own thoughts about this problem.

🧵 I’ve been unpleasantly surprised that some people seem to condone the public criticism of employees and/or the public firing of an employee for responding to this criticism. Here are my thoughts on these topics, which I hope would be obvious to any decent leader. (1/22)
