@dhh are you “excited” that DOGE has now shuttered 18F?
DHH@dhh

@WayofLono Absolutely. That's one of the reasons I'm excited for DOGE. Americans deserve so much more for their tax dollars than what they're getting. The amount of grift, graft, and mind-boggling sloth and inefficiency is unworthy those United States.

@Lethain A couple things I like to dig into which don’t always show up: 1. What were the past X incidents? Review the RCAs/Action items. What changed as a result? 2. How do Eng/Product/UX/Biz functions collaborate at all levels? How are decisions made?

Writing up notes on role of engineering in M&A (particularly wrt evaluating potential acquisitions, as opposed to selling oneself). Any good existing resources out there that folks recommend?

@semil The tech is surely interesting, but I’m still searching for a value prop other than regulatory avoidance. I’d love for it to be there!

Just as we see tech giants & startups add AI features to their product, wonder if we will see same trend among these co's w/ respect to using decentralized protocols, rather than a diff path where folks speculated native crypto co's could leapfrog them.

When I say that the Americans with Disabilities Act couldn't pass Congress today, this is precisely what I mean. There are no more Bob Dole, John Durenberger, Steve Bartlett, Jim Sensenbrenner Republicans in Congress anymore.
Eric Kleefeld@EricKleefeld

And here’s more ridicule from Maria Bartiromo and Marco Rubio. Keep in mind, the fact that this was event protocol for the disabled is fully out there. These people are just dedicated to being petty.

@rklau @Codecademy Flip SQL & Python. After HTML, CSS, JavaScript & SQL you’re well setup to build fulllstack web apps. Spend some time building an idea together. You can code review each other’s PRs on GitHub or do pair programming.

You know what’s crazy about plummeting startup valuations and down rounds this quarter, is that Roe vs Wade is about to get overturned and detrimentally change the lives of millions of women and girls across the country.

There are some crazy misconceptions out there about crime in NYC. Yes, crime has increased since the pandemic, but the city is still much safer than most of America 1/

How did Brett “Da Keghead” Kavanaugh and Handmaiden COVID Barrett’s nomination pass the same Senate Judiciary Committee that deadlocked on Ketanji Brown Jackson? Easy. When you’re accustomed to white mediocrity, Black excellence feels like aggression. thegrio.com/2022/04/05/bla…
