The Redheaded Troublemaker

Things that make me stay up at night.

Yup. Right now

Oh boy

The CEO of Southwest ruined their brand and company. Passenger Policy Changes •End of Open Seating: On January 27, 2026, Southwest officially ditched its 54-year-old open seating model for assigned seating. Passengers now choose seats during booking or are assigned one at check-in, with premium options available for extra legroom. •New "Customer of Size" Rules: Passengers who cannot fit between armrests must now proactively purchase an additional seat at booking. Refunds for the second seat are only issued if the flight departs with at least one open seat. •Seat-Back Pocket Ban: Flight crews have begun enforcing a rule prohibiting any items (including phones, Kindles, or snacks) in seat-back pockets during takeoff and landing, citing safety and cleanliness concerns. •Checked Bag Fees: Breaking a decades-long tradition, the airline has begun introducing fees for checked bags, moving closer to the pricing structures of legacy carriers. •Strict Seat Movement: Travelers have reported "weight and manifest" restrictions that prevent them from moving to empty rows even on nearly empty flights.

@harparr1 feeling the same way :(

Just canceled Premium+. I’m going to miss those extra 150 impressions.

@TiffanyFong we like you? is that good enough?

i have no idea why 495K of you follow my stupid ass.

@TechLayoffLover and once the creativity is gone, then what? AI is just repeating what it's taught, no innovation.

Atlassian just confirmed 1,600 layoffs with 900+ coming from engineering But I'm hearing the real story from inside Sources say they've been running "knowledge extraction sprints" for 6 months - recording every senior engineer's screen, logging their prompts, documenting their debugging workflows One architect told me they made him walk through his entire microservices decision tree while they filmed it. Called it "knowledge transfer for the transition team" The transition team? 47 contractors in Bangalore with access to his recorded sessions and a Claude Enterprise subscription Same architect just found out his replacement starts Monday. Guy makes $28k annually and ships code 40% faster using the exact prompt libraries they extracted They're not just cutting headcount - they're systematizing 15 years of engineering expertise into training data The "strategic AI focus" isn't about building AI products It's about replacing their entire engineering culture with agents trained on their senior engineers' knowledge Word is the CTO replacement already has the playbook: extract, document, offshore, automate If you're still there and they ask you to "document your processes for the team" - RUN The knowledge extraction is complete

@Remi_Grl2 oh looking at that little guy, its so cute!

I have been craving this all day…🫢☺️😂🤷🏻‍♀️

@BorisJohnson really??? which bank if paying you to say that... The banks lose with BTC, the little folks win!

I've long suspected Bitcoin is a giant Ponzi scheme and now I'm hearing tales of woe that make me fear I'm right. mol.im/a/15643681

If the SAVE Trump Act passes, it will be easier to buy an assault rifle than it will be to register to vote. Let that sink in.

@GMawgwai glad that is helping out!

@try2underit Weed worked for mine. Money and having it did not.

UNPOPULAR OPINION: Most depression and anxiety could be cured with financial stability.
