@mmasnick Iโ€™m calling for a total and complete shutdown of tech executives roaming free in San Francisco until our country's representatives can figure out what is going on.

@mmasnick I think we all know the correct policy here is an aggressive police response to the threat of violent tech crime: they need strict curfews, stop and frisk, and probably a tech focused police task force. This has to be full on broken windows policing. If you see a group of tech execs congregating anywhere they could potentially commit a crimeโ€”street corners, bars, convention centers, conference roomsโ€”then you need to call the cops to come and break that up. We need to take this seriously, lest our cities be taken over by a wave of tech on tech crime.

@mmasnick so I guess the problem is that the city is not jailing enough tech execs

LEAKER PLUGGED

Pentagon leaks: US air national guardsman, 21, identified as suspect

Jack Teixeira led Thug Shaker Central online group and is facing arrest in Massachusetts, say reports

Bonus info: Jack lives (or lived) in Hebron, CT and I assume comes from a wealthy family. He's a good golfer, having won a tournament at age 18.

He echoes Donald Trump in that he hates big government and law enforcement agencies.

@rbreich they watch Fox and enjoy being lied to because they hear what they want to hear. They do not want to be intellectually challenged

Alas, no. Fox News viewers aren't victims, they are co conspirators.

Excellent timing that a 21 year-old cis, straight white guy Air National Guardsman who makes videos of himself shooting guns while shouting racist and antisemitic epithets is behind the massive intel documents leak on Discord while Republicans claim, without evidence, that trans folks are bad for military readiness.

In Texas, Daniel Perryโ€”a white manโ€”posted "he might kill a few people," drove his car past a red light & into a previously peaceful BLM march, shot & killed a protestor (a US Vet), was duly charged, unanimously convictedโ€”& TX Gov Abbott is pardoning him.๐Ÿ˜ณ

Texas is announcing to the world that in their view, murdering people for exercising their First Amendment right to peacefully protesting racism is OK.

This isn't democracy. It's fascism. This sets a literally deadly precedent for the future.

Basically, this self-identified conservative, Christian intel leaker was grooming his own little gang of incels, for some strange reason.

I have a strong background in web dev (Node.js, PHP, UX/UI). I have some experience with Python, C++, C#. I have no problem picking up new things.

I have dabbled in hardware design (Bluetooth LE devices, IMUs, PCB design).

I've also gotten handy with Product roles (namely, as a SAFe certified Product Owner)

Looking for a developer role - full time, or preferably, part time employment here in the US. Remote preferred.

If youโ€™ve been treated like a nail, everything looks like a hammer.

How many accidents are you having that you need your insurance company's app on your phone?

Small lottery win, car damaged.
Work bonus, fridge dies.
Tax refund, root canal. (current)
Etc etc etc ๐Ÿ˜‘

I have way too many such examples, where any small gain is immediately clawed back.
And while I am grateful for the times I have been allowed to almost break-even by a perceived windfall and I marvel at the timing, as if the universe was looking out for me in some small way..
maybe, just once, let me have the win.

If you're shocked TX Gov Abbot is planning to pardon Daniel Perry for murdering a man at a peaceful BLM marchโ€”just rememberโ€”TX is the state that sentenced a Black woman to 5 years for an uncounted ballot, but not a white male judge for deliberate voter fraudโ€”in the same County. TX sentenced a Black kid to 10 years for punching & killing 1 person, but not an affluent white teen for getting drunk & killing 4โ€”they had the same judge

Texas GOP has proudly chosen fascism over democracy. Believe them
